though i have to turn my laptop upside down, though i think it helps that i know what it said originally.
How easy was it for you to read? As its meant to be as easy as reading correctly spelt words.

I think once you've read it once, it is a lot easier the second time round.
Daft question coming up....
I wonder if this works in all languages that use the Latin alphabet, and not just in English?

I have absolutely no idea how you just turned that post upside-down. I can only imagine you typed while standing on your head.

Having seen it before! lol. I have no idea if it is the same for other Latin based languages - i am sure others here will know the answer though.
The one you posted looked like you had written it in South Georgia :P

I googled "turn text upside down" and clicked on the first link. 
If you use basic editor, you have to make sure post style is HTML or Markup/HTML for it to work.

I ABSOLUTELY Agree. I heard Phillpa say that Desolation might be shorter and thought. . . .

Thrain, Beorn, Azog (unfortunately not dead yet, but hopefully by the end), Mirkwood, Dol Guldor, Spiders, Thranduil and his Elves, Laketown, The White Council, Smaug, More Dol Guldur and more Smaug. . . . I don't think 2 hours and 30 minutes is going to cut it. Now. . . if it features wrong things like Tauriel killing Smaug, or Gandalf getting beaten down by Nazgul (or failing to display some kick ass magic when confronting them) I might change my mind and say it was at least two scenes too damned long. But otherwise. . . more please.

it was indeed entirely upside down.

I just posed your query to Mr. Ro (who's a bit of a professional linguist) and he thought it wouldn't work so well in languages (such as German) that have words inflected at the beginning or end. He'd have to explain the nuances though.

I think PJ tends to put in more, rather than less. Except when it came the the Faramir/Eowyn story, which I still haven't forgiven him for 
As for the other posts here, I need my special National Treasure eyeglasses. I'm so confused....

So it wouldn't work well (if at all) in Spanish, French, Italian and so on. But could possibly work in Norwegian, maybe Icelandic? Welsh would be a nightmare. They just randomly place letters already!
It's definitely worth an experiment. My Spanish isn't good enough to try it. Any foreign language speaking TORn folk have any idea/care to give it a try?

i just dont want to see these films become harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban/goblet of fire (thank GOD Cauron didnt take it) mainstream freidnly runtime over substance seriously those not as familiar with potter go red the goblet of fire novel and then watch the film immedatly after and witness the mess wb made of it thnak GOD for raplh finnes brilliant performance at the end as that other dark lord otherwsie the iflm would have been a comoplete disaster i ant jacksons full vision realized wether its 180 mins or 90 i dont want a half-assed edit just for the purpose of a mainstream-friendly runtime
Considering the direction of this thread, and the irony of the bolded portion of the quoted text, I'd just like to ask if "half-assed edits" include a profound lack of punctuation and orthography?
