Maybe some graphic images from Eowyn's imagination? I doubt we'll see any nipplage from Liv. It's spelled "scene" by the way. And I thought JL wrote "yellow MELON custard".

Hmm I read somewhere "Aragorn has a 'dream' about Arwen" or something along those lines. I'm quite positive it is Aragorn/Arwen, given, since it's hollywood, they would suggestive any sex scenes in the film, which they sort of did in the trailer that came out oct 1

Aragorn and Arwen? Nah- public opinion in London- Aragorn and LEGOLAS!!!!!!!! The way those two look at eachother- only kidding- my friends sick sexual fantasy the second she saw them she turned to me a whispered- well I won't repeat but it was about the heavy breathing after the watcher in the water attacks at Moria. I nearly screamed- NOOOOOOOOOO!!! Not Aragorn, Legolas maybe but not Aragorn! I hope its sweet though and not with Eowyn- Aragorn couldn't betray Arwen could he? Mx PS I love Legolas so it'd better not involve him- my heart will break into a thousand pieces. Orlando, Orlando!!!!-mad girlish moment- swoon!

There won't be a sex scene. Otherwise there'd be an an adult only rating and you can't do that. Afterall, kids read the books too.

...AND, Ladies and Gentlemen, children also visit the Moot.

Hope we can all remember that. It's a fine line......

Hmm, this reminds of the thread where Tater said there would be a sex scene between Arwen and Aragorn. I guess the only people who could be involved are Arwen and Aragorn (I won't even mention Frodo and Sam ). Or maybe Eowyn gets her way with Aragorn (lucky gal). I can't really see how they could fit it in. Aragorn: Err, sorry guys, can't fight the orcs anymore, Arwen just arrived at Helms Deep.

Miranda: Perhaps your friend should read some Legolas/Aragorn slash fan fiction. Some of it is quite disturbing.

From TORn:
Quote:
No More Sex In TTT!
Xoanon @ 9:18 am EST


Not that there ever was any in the first place...check this out from Fergus: I recieved this update from Odeon concerning TTT - it seems the sexual content was a mistake! The fil has been confirmed as a 12A which means there may be more violence than FOTR.

1) The actual release date for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is December 18th and NOT December 13th as reported.

2) The certificate for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is confirmed as 12A. However, the correct certificate addendum is in fact, "contains intense combat and fantasy horror scenes". It is NOT, "contains moderate action, violence and one sex scene" which was attached by mistake. This is in fact the correct certificate addendum for James Bond: Die Another Day.
All a misunderstanding, apparently

Oh.

Darn, I wanted to make a witty comment about how Orlando Bloom looks like a girl... (sorry, Miranda)

What can I say? I love a guy with a feminine side. Hey he may look like a girl in LOTR but whoa have you seen him in everything else!!! MIAOW!!! That man's so insanely gorgeous its untrue- I especially love his one line appearance in Wilde. As for the mistake in the ratings I thought it would be a 12A just looking at the pictures (Hey I'm still having nightmares about Ringwraiths!) but I'm actually glad there's no sex scene. Arwen and Aragorn's relationship has a sort of innocence about it that a scene like that would just destroy. Mx

Hmm...

What do you think arwen and aragorn went up into the tower for after their wedding?

What were eowyn and farimir doing in the houses of healing?

What does frodo think sam has waited long enough to do with rosy? And where exactly does little elanor come from?

There's plenty of sex in the books... it's just understated, not explicit. And if PJ could manage to reproduce that, I say go for it.

Oh shat...first it was Arwen at Helms Deep and now it's THIS! One of the things that I like about LOTR is that it's a refuge from todays tolerance towards sex outside of marriage. It makes the marriages of Eowyn+Faramir, Aragorn+ Arwen and Sam+ Rose sweeter and more poignant because they're innocent.
If a sex scene is added in TTT then it will take away the innocence of LOTR and RUIN it's refuge and security...at least for the movies...it'll ruin the whole thing...I mean Aragorn and Arwen messing around before they get married? That is not kingly or elven princessly at all...
A sincerely upset
Sam

Samwise don't worry. It was a mistake. The sex scene rating was for the new James Bond movie. They accidentally put it with TTT.
