Samari swords?

And secant: those are just sabers (all samari swords are sabers but not the other way around) And third: why not?

What's mine?
What I don't like is that they give the orcs no sematars and the uruk-hai no strait swords.
Another thing is that they put in arwin alot more than in the book (Like resquing frodo when he did it in the book )

the orcs in moria had curved blade, not straight fold-weld swords - these we classify as scimitars
and the uruk-hai do not have curved swords, they are straight-bladed, with a perpendicular projection |

Hmm. The parallels I seem to be finding between myself and Fan A in Wayfarer's little script are almost eerie.

I hate the part in TTT where that Dunlending guy with horrible teeth slices his palm to swear alliegance to Saruman -
"We will fight... " *gross-looking teeth, gross-looking teeth* "for Saruman!" Also, I hate the stupid over-used cliche of the-bad-guy-always-has-bad-teeth that PJ relentlessly used. If Sauron were embodied, Sauron - evillest of all, right? - I think he'd probably have dazzlingly perfect teeth. What's with the f-ng teeth?!

Yep, Lotesse!
Mouth of Sauron's teeth were especially incongruous. I believe the guy who is the main spokesman for the Dark Lord should care for his mouth! |

"Let's hunt some orc!"
I haven't seen the movies in a while so I don't remember anything else. |

Yeah, "Let's hunt some orc" WAS pretty cheesy.

Cheesy, and so un-Aragorn.

I bought the FotR extended edition DVDs yesterday, and I couldn't be happier! Of the three Peter Jackson movies I count the first as the best. There's the least frequency of annoying bits in FotR, and of all of the films, it feels the best to watch. EspESCially this Extended edition! happyhappyhappy
