Gramma... [In reply to]	Can't Post

I have a favor to ask.

If the Mayans were right and December 2012 is going to be the last month we all spend on Arda, can I come to your theater and experience the End of the World/Apocalypse/Giant Comet hitting the Planet/Whatever with you? I can't think of a better way to go out, and you're perfect company, methinks. Wink

I am just sitting here reading this hugely entertaining debate with a bottle of iced tea and imagining Guillermo reading this too and laughing his head off.... Smile

And yeah..understatement..
they seem to like it" must mean "Jeff Bewkes is SALIVATING and rubbing his hands in glee":)

Seeing the Mountains in the distance	lyndomiel	Nov 24 2009, 5:32pm
I can't agree. Too much cliff or hang in a cliffhanger leaves that strangled sensation	AinurOlorin	Nov 24 2009, 12:53am
The most frustrating cliffhanger of them all	lyndomiel	Nov 24 2009, 5:41pm

Yes My Precious	Kangi Ska	Nov 24 2009, 2:53am
I can understand and agree with that Kanga Sai	AinurOlorin	Nov 24 2009, 3:09am
Remember though, there was no 'battle of Dol Guldur'	Altaira	Nov 24 2009, 4:20am
Yo ho ho	squire	Nov 24 2009, 4:46am

Ha? Nah!	squire	Nov 24 2009, 11:27pm
Thanx for the Work	Kangi Ska	Nov 25 2009, 12:36am
Yet that is just it. He DOES mention a cnnfrontation. . . just with few specifics	AinurOlorin	Nov 25 2009, 12:31am
I love it.	Kangi Ska	Nov 25 2009, 12:44am
Lol. Thanks Kanga	AinurOlorin	Nov 25 2009, 1:02am

Just to add...	Ceres_the_Dwarf_(planet)	Nov 26 2009, 7:46pm
But actually it's a pattern of behavior already established	Tim	Nov 26 2009, 1:11am
Nay. This doesn't hold up.	AinurOlorin	Nov 26 2009, 2:27am
But, a big part of the point is	Altaira	Nov 26 2009, 3:41am
It is strongly implied that he stayed. It is hard to drive someone out of a place if they are already gone	AinurOlorin	Nov 26 2009, 5:22am
Exactly where is it strongly implied?	Altaira	Nov 26 2009, 6:12am
Yet none of this is any more wishful than the notion that Sauron was gone ere the council arrived	AinurOlorin	Nov 26 2009, 7:44am
butting in	Twit	Nov 26 2009, 12:36pm
Broken record	Altaira	Nov 26 2009, 5:53pm
Good grief Altaira. I begin to think that a three page passage detailing Sauron's original plans	AinurOlorin	Nov 26 2009, 8:24pm
Good grief, AO	Altaira	Nov 26 2009, 8:41pm

So much for your 'apology'	Altaira	Nov 28 2009, 4:59am
Ummm. We were having an interesting if contentious conversation.	AinurOlorin	Nov 30 2009, 7:07am

Thank You	Kangi Ska	Nov 27 2009, 4:46pm
The essence of Catch-22 is circularity	squire	Nov 27 2009, 7:05pm
Please cite your source for CJRT's disapproval	Finrod	Nov 27 2009, 7:57pm
"I do not disapprove of the LotR films" is not the same as "I see your approach to The Hobbit as desirable"	squire	Nov 27 2009, 8:42pm
Squire...	Sunflower	Nov 28 2009, 1:57am
I'd unravel any riddle / For any individ'le	Finrod	Nov 28 2009, 3:31am

Thank you...	Sunflower	Nov 28 2009, 2:34am
It ALL Depends on HOW You Look at IT.	Kangi Ska	Nov 28 2009, 3:34am
I share much of your sentiment.	AinurOlorin	Nov 28 2009, 3:51am
understanding is one thing...	Finrod	Nov 28 2009, 2:56am

Balrog	Kangi Ska	Nov 27 2009, 5:28am
The filmography differs here from the books,	AinurOlorin	Nov 27 2009, 8:59am
A Well Thought Answer	Kangi Ska	Nov 27 2009, 3:46pm
Again, it would only be involved via vision if at all.	AinurOlorin	Nov 27 2009, 7:31pm
Nice Find	Kangi Ska	Nov 27 2009, 7:55pm
I beg to differ.	FarFromHome	Nov 27 2009, 11:16am

A Satisfying Note	Kangi Ska	Nov 24 2009, 1:21am
