yeah...he did? :confused:

Anyway, I saw the movie last night and it is one of the best movies I've ever seen, hands down. I really liked Fellowship, and I can honestly say that the Two Towers is the much better film. The battle of Helm's Deep will go down in history as one of the greatest battles on film, ever. I also loved how this second intallment in the Trilogy has more of everything than the first. More emotion, more humour, more action, more violence (definately NOT overdone, though), and more things took place. I loved some of the new characters such as Gollum and especially the TREES. I also love how characters like Gimli and Legolas were much larger parts of the movie than in Fellowship. I can now truly say that they are great characters. And is there much to say about Aragorn? He's the man. Also, the story progressed so well on the screen that I payed strict attention to the film for the full 2 hours and 59 minutes. That says a lot. The movie is an instant classic, and carries my 'film of the year' honor and runs with it since surpassing Minority Report. And the trees own us. That is all.

SPOILERS!!!


I saw it too yesterday night. I didn't know what to ecpect from it.
I loved TFotR (seen it 7 times) and I love the book.

I went with a (female) friend that's also Tolkien-fan.
We enjoyed it, it was good. Not better than TFotR, just different.
Gollum was great!! Man he was good! :D Just like in the book!

The worst thing of the movie was the Ents. I mean, they were kinda good, but not half as cool as in the book. Especially the eyes... I mean, YELLOW EYES?? :rolleyes:

Helm's Deep was cool, just too bad that they changed the already perfect story of the book. 10.000 Uruks vs 300 weak old men and boys just isn't cool. And Elves in Helms Deep?? :rolleyes: Come on, the Last Alliance of Elves and Men wasn't called that for nothing! They just needed someone important to die... :unsure:

The movie lacked the story from part one.

And it sucks that Faramir was evil. In the book, he just let's them go from the start. So they don't go into Osgiliath and stuff.

Oh yeah, the Dead Marshes were... not creepy enough. In the book, I was scared to death (hey, I was 15)! Here it was... meh.


I don't say the movie is bad, but I still have to accept some changes from the book. After that it'll be great. :)

I didn't find it creepy...and I am 15.


The movie was pretty good. I saw it with my friend today.

:lol:

Words cannot describe how much I agree with your post. From the fact that it's better than the already, more than great Fellowship of the Rings, to the other fact that it eclipses one of the other great films, Minority Reports. If there was only one complaint I could possiby think of (and it can't even be classed as one), is that the film could have been longer :D.

I have a feeling that this trilogy of films will be the best in history.

i just got back from seeing the movie. i thought it was damn good. best movie i've seen all year. not once did i feel bored or uninterested, it was just a joy to watch. the cinematography was absolutely stunning, beautiful lighting and perfect camera angles. computer graphics were some of the best i've ever seen, especially Gollum who was brilliantly acted. not to mention, the Ents were damn crazy! deffinitely worth the 3 hours, i hope they make an extended DVD version. and the final battle at Helms Deep was unbelieveable. never have i seen a battle so big and so amazing, that alone is worth watching the movie.

word :)

I saw Two Towers today. The best movie I've seen all year. And I'll be there next december to see Return Of The King. :)

I saw it today...

My friends, all of Gametavern, and the rest of the world: IT WAS THE UBEREST COOLEST MOVIE EVAH! BEST TRILIOGY IN HISTORAH! I GIVE IT A 9.8! IT SHOULD'VE BEEN LONGER! BEST FIGHT SCENE EVAH!

Me: Meh...it was alright...like the first one...just alright...nothing more, nothing less

*sees everyone coming at him with swords*

*runs away*

so far, 2 of the best movies i ever seen.

the 2nd i liked better then the first overall. but there were parts from both i liked better.

from what i hear. the 3rd is going to be spectacular......... the dood who plays Frodo was on Regis last week (hey, im at work, tv was on. :D) He said it all comes to an end in the third.... In dramatic Fashion. Said he's seen parts of it. and cant help but cry when he sees them.

mesa cant wait for next december. =)

i nearly cried in this movie...

at the end of that battle.. JESUS CHRIST.. *spoiler* just seeing gandalf arrive there... with... BAH and as they rode down that mountain .... the music is just so.. amazingly fitting... and the visuals just ... it all comes together..

and ive read the third book and im just saying that if this was helms deep... and this was THAT amazing.. then the battles in the final book will be COMPLETELY OUT OF THIS WORLD.... like... helms deep is nothing compared to what goes on in the third book..

as to what that guy said about the ents being gay was wrong.. the ents were wicked.. and what he said about helms deep was wrong too... it was a wicked battle and when the elves arrived i thought it was amazing... all those arrows... if anything the elves are the coolest characters in the story... IMO at least..

but yea we all know it was awesome and we all know we are gonna die waiting a year for the next one...

oh well..

gollem owns you. :P


and yea. i agree with you. There very few movies like this these days..... the movies that get you so into them. that......


*spoiler*


When you see gandalf at the top of the hill. and riding down with all the men. or when the elves arrive at hellms deep to fight along side the men..... you feel your self rooting for them. like, "Hell yea! kick some orc ass you guys!!!!"


.......


i wish there were more movies that give you such feelings.

Wow, this Me character is alright. I'd have to agree. I saw the movie today and I wasn't all that impressed. Like I've said before, Dead Alive is, like, so much better. And Jason1, the next time you see me running at you with a sword, don't be frightened, I'm only doing it cause BLueFire told me to.

damn.....i cant wait for next december

Yeah I'm sure that TRotK will be the best of the 3. I mean it has the ending, and the endig is uber. The battles are even bigger (MUCH bigger) with not just one fort under siege but a whole city. There are also a lot more different races in those wars so that should be very heftig.

After 2 days thinking about it, I really like TTT better than when I just saw it. Like I said, I had to get used to it.

But still Ghettodude, I think the Ents could have been so much cooler if they were pictured like in the book. Like ancient powers, wise, slow to anger... but WHEN they're angry... :eek: :D
Yellow eyes suck. :p

I really liked how Legolas jumped on the horse! :D:D:D GO LEGOLAS!!! :roll:

Gollum to Sam: "Nice Hobbit :)" GREAT! :D
