Anybody watching the clock? Can't Post

I am kinda waiting for 7 p.m. Pacific Time, wondering how and where and when this announcement will happen. I assume a movie studio, or two, will be blowing the horn but how and to who? 90 minutes to go . . .

I have no choice but to believe in free will.

TORN *is* my clock. [In reply to] Can't Post

I've been watching since yesterday, hoping 2pm Monday NZ time was the golden hour. *drums fingers*

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded b*****d with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

A moth just came out of nowhere and landed on my hand! No Kidding! Just like I was perched on top of Orthanc or something!

i honestly feel kind of bad about it. [In reply to] Can't Post

But it didn't look like it had anything to do with the movies! How was I to know? (slumps down in chair trying to look inconspicuous) I just thought it was some guy who liked using grand/famous names.

He got way more attention in off topic than he would have in movie. Right? And for compensation, I'll let him use my "In the Shire" song for the closing credits. For free.
:D

But did the moth speak to you? [In reply to] Can't Post

Or did you ask it to send for an eagle to bring GDT over here to explain what's going on?

it's ok- and now, when The Hobbit comes out, you can say to all your kids, "I moved that guy's post off the movie discussion!" and they'll all respect you more for it....Wink

well, then [In reply to] Can't Post

ask them what they did to irritate the Director? (well, ok, they'll probably roll their eyes again, but you'll know that the answer is "nothing- in fact, I've never even made contact with him before," and you'll win! Ha- there!)
