What people think of Two Towers (*SPOILERS*) - Page 34

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-25-2003, 07:27 PM

Because they don't have as much time to work on it, so it'll be more rushed.

I somehow doubt it put a lot of people to sleep.

Lizra · 03-25-2003, 07:35 PM

Hmmppt! Put me to sleep!

(sort of) Geez, you'd think they'd have all this stuff done by now! I thought it was in the can! I hope they don't "over-tinker" it!

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-25-2003, 07:45 PM

If you mean cut too much, then I fear it is too late.

Lizra · 03-25-2003, 08:43 PM

Well that, and just try to do too much. Second guessing, I suppose. Things that are changed a year or two down the line might have an "altered" feel to them. I'd rather see the original interpretation, even if it isn't perfect, or follows the book perfectly. I'm game! Sometimes the more you mess with something, the worse it gets! (Course I could be wrong! )

It's hard to sustain excitement over these movies for three years.!!

I dunno, I'm not having any trouble. It gives me something to look forward to. I'm looking forward to seeing FotR followed by TT as soon as the second DVD comes out; I anticipate a whole new perspective.
If you get really bored, you can always read the excerpt from my book which is on my website (see below.)

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 07:18 AM

Well! I thought I could reread Tolkien again, but your book....Even better!

Cool!

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-26-2003, 12:47 PM

B...b...better??? You INFIDEL!!! It's very good, well-written, but BETTER than TOLKIEN???

LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA!!!

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 07:59 PM

What's with the large la la's? You've been to the fan girl thread once too often!

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-26-2003, 08:19 PM

Actually, I picked it up when Aeryn was trying to protect her ears from the exploits of a certain female.

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 08:26 PM

You picked it up....now, put it down! Or at least shrink it!

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-26-2003, 08:27 PM

Is Lizzy going dirty again....

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 08:32 PM

I think I'll save my "dirt" for the older ones!

The moot youth seems to get a little hyper over it.

Sorry , no dirt for you!

Gwaimir Windgem · 03-26-2003, 08:40 PM

Yes! Keep your dirt with your dirty crowds!

Cirdan · 03-26-2003, 11:08 PM

Did someone order a dirty old man?

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 11:17 PM

Ha! I guess I did....

You got me!

Cirdan · 03-26-2003, 11:46 PM

Good. I'd like to reccommend a number seven. That includes the massage oil, scented candles, cognac, and the trapeeze.

Lizra · 03-26-2003, 11:51 PM

Ooh! Let's start with a footbath! Where's my snood!

Entlover's stories are very entertaining! You all should check them out!

Entlover · 04-01-2003, 12:35 AM

Thanks for the kind words.
Writing stories keep me from going nuts waiting for RotK.

Anybody know when the DVD of TT will be out?

Lizra · 04-01-2003, 12:58 AM

I really liked your stories! I am a type who does not care for fiction, I'm lucky to have read Tolkien! Your stories were very "readable". I think it works well to get to some "plot" right at the start, and save the descriptions for later, when the reader is already "hooked". I did not have to force myself to keep reading! I'm so glad you enjoy writing, and you seem to have a "gift"!

I really got a kick from the story of how you and your husband met also! I've been meaning to PM Rian to make sure she reads that! I'll be back to read the stories I didn't have time to get to. Thanks for the fiction treat!
