"I feel like I'm back at the Green Dragon, after a hard days work..."

Dec 17, 2009 20:10

So if you follow me on Twitter or saw my update on Facebook, you'd realize that today is a very important day.

Six years ago, Return of the King came out in theaters. If you ask me my FAVORITE movie, I will say Return of the King. The LOTR trilogy is the series of films that made me want to make movies of my own. The series as a whole means alot to me, but Return of the King just blew me away.

So as tribute, you guys get to suffer through my running commentary as I watch my favorite movie.

Here we go!



Okay, the beginning of the movie, we have the introduction of Smeagol as he once was, with his friend/cousin Deagol. This is probably my least favorite part of the film.

I love Andy Serkis and how he portrays Gollum. Gollum is a very interesting character and Andy Serkis is an amazing actor. I love the fact that we actually got to see his face, as Smeagol.

The tranformation of Smeagol into Gollum always creeped me out... this time is no different, *shudders*

YAY! Frodo and Sam! Must admit... just got a little teary eyed when Sam explains why he's rationing their food. OH! The look on Frodo's face after Sam says: "The journey home"

*sobs*

Hee. Merry and Pippin always make me laugh, I love them to pieces. I love how their characters grow up in this movie. Hmmm... I'm glad I'm just watching the theatrical version instead of the Extended, don't really feel like watching Saurman and Wormtongue's drama. lol

IT'S KING THEODEN! For some reason, other then Sam, Theoden is my second favorite character.

It's Doctor McCoy! I mean... Eomer. :P

Oh Eowyn, someone needs to introduce you to Taylor Swift. Aragorn is not your man. FARAMIR IS!

Hee, I once again must say... I LOVE MERRY AND PIPPIN!

"What does your heart tell you?"

*sobs*

I'm just gonna sit here and cry, I love this movie so much and the characters go through so much.

Stupid Gollum. Sam had all right to smack him in the head with a frying pan.

Peter Jackson is a God.

"Up! Up! Up! The stairs they go!"

GET HIM SAM!!

Oh Frodo... Sam really does love you, cause I would have been like, "Dude, you are redonkulus, stab that little buttmunch and lets get this show on the road or I'm leaving you and going back to hang with the elves"

YAY! Legolas! Uh oh, Pippin can't get his mind off the big glowy ball

FOOL OF A TOOK!

Oh No! Merry and Pippin are being separated. Oh Pippin, people forget that he is the baby of the four hobbits.

*hugs Merry and Pippin*

Aragorn is go awesome. ARWEN! Dude that little boy was some perfect casting.

"There is nothing for you here... only death." You Lord Elrond are a LIAR!

FIGWIT!

I love that dress, I love all of the dresses in this movie.

"Some things are certain... If I leave him now, I will regret it forever."

So do elves never have cold hands? Cause Elrond is all like, "Dude! Your hands are cold!"

Oh Elladan and Elrohir, I wish we got to truly meet ya. Those are Arwen's brothers, they are twins.

DUDE! DENETHOR! I so hate him... but I love John Noble. John Noble made me cry earlier today, I love Fringe so so much. I despise Denethor cause of how he treats Faramir.

Oh Boromir flashback. He was a jerk, but he wasn't all that bad. Oh Pippin, Gandalf is not pleased with you, you gotta learn how to keep your mouth shut!

John Noble is good at playing crazy people.

TITLE REFERENCE!

Oh Gandalf just served Denethor. Didn't exactly call him a throne warmer, but he was totally implying it!

"There was never much hope...just a fool's hope."

Peter Jackson cameo

"It will be the end of Gondor as we know it." Hey, anyone want to write a song?

"It's the end of Gondor as we know... it's the end of Gondor as we know it and I feel fine..."

No? Alright... WITCH KING OF ANGMAR!

Frodo's psychosis always confuzzled me... I mean I know it was mostly the ring, but I wish he just had a bit MORE willpower.

Faramir, all he wanted was for his dad to accept him. Uh oh... I sense a Supernatural comparison coming on... MUST SURPRESS IT!

Okay... I'm good.

Goodness it's been a while, I can even remember the name of the ground beef face orc with the dud arm... oh well

Go Pippin! Light them beacons!

I WANNA GO TO NEW ZEALAND! It's so pretty!!

"THE BEACONS OF MINAS TIRITH! THE BEACONS ARE LIT! GONDOR CALLS FOR AID!"

*long dramatic pause*

"And Rohan with answer! Muster the Rohirrim Dr.McCoy"

Sorry.. I can't help myself, I so want to watch Star Trek.

YAY!! How can people not love this movie! It's made of awesome.

I heart Eowyn, so much girl power right there. She's can be so vulnerable, but she is so freaking strong. There may not be many girls in this movie, but between the main three, they are sooo awesome!

I must meet someone who can do the Orc yell.

Oh noes! Nazgul!

"FALL BACK! FALL BACK TO MINAS TIRITH!"

Oh Orcs are hilarious.

GANDALF TO THE RESCUE!

IT'S BOBA FETT! Little Boba Fett at least. Yes I know the extras... what of it?

Faramir's stare is making Pippin nervous.

Oh god... we're coming up to the first part that made me cry in theaters. Poor Sam.

Gollum is a manipulative little butthead. *glares*

Pippin's song. Oh Faramir, Oh Pippin. Denethor... you are an ASS and you are a messy eater. I can't believe he'd wish for his one son to be alive and his other dead. *cries*

Oh no... don't do it Frodo, don't send Sam home. It makes him cry! and me cry too. *sniffles*

It's that pause, before he starts to sob... oh *sobs*

Darn you Frodo!!

Hi Peter Jackson's kids.

Poor Faramir "Your father loves you Faramir, he will remember it before the end"

"Home is behind, the world ahead and there are many paths to tread. Through Shadow, through the edge of night, until the stars are all alight. Mist and shadow, cloud and shade. All shall fade, all shall fade."

*gives Pippin a hug*

If someone asked me where in Middle-earth I'd like to live, I'd have to say I'd live in Rohan.

"The horses are restless and the men are quiet"

Oh Captain Obvious *hearts Legols*

AHHH! I want to watch Star Trek! Darn you Karl Urban and being in two of my favorite movies!

Awww Eowyn is about to get burned. Don't worry girl, you get a man in the end and he is AWESOME and brave.

I bet Eowyn always beat up Eomer when they were kids, haha.

It's LORD ELROND! and he's bringing Aragorn an awesome sword!

That dude was all up in Aragorn's tent.

"THEY WILL ANSWER TO THE KING OF GONDOR"

WOOT!! This part is so freaking epic, you can't help but be like, OH YEAH! GO ARAGORN!

When in the world are they playing all three movies at the Cinema and Drafthouse? I wanna watch this with some hardcore fans again.

*gives Eowyn a hug*

YAY for teamwork!

"I would have you smile again, not grieve for those whose time as come."

Here's some exposition from Legolas! See he is good for something other than being pretty and warrior like.

"An elf would go underground, when a dwarf dell not... ugh, I'll never hear the end of it"

YAY for Eowyn grabbing Merry and riding out to fight with their friends!

It's the leader of the green sea of death! Go ARAGORN! Tell him whose boss!

Gimli is all... HOLY CRAP! Look at all them green ghost people!

Legolas is all like, "I will not pee my pants, I will look around as though I am not bothered, then attempt to shoot a ghost with my bow."

"WHAT SAY YOU!?"

Oh noes! Faramir! He's got himself a smart horse, knew right where to go.

Ewwww severed heads.

AH! Now Gandalf is gonna go all Ninja on Denethor. Go Gandalf! Go Gandalf!

One horrible way to die: being mushed by a HUGE rock.

Awww "He taught us how to fight" *hugs Pippin*

I'm watching the Limited Edition, which has the theatrical and Extended editions on one two sided disc... time to flip the disc!!

"It's sticky! What is it!?"

haha, funniest line ever. We are not in Shelob's lair and Frodo FINALLY realizes he's a douchebag. You pushed Sam away you jerk, don't go wishing he was there.

AHHHHHHHH Shelob!

Oh Frodo, why do you have to be so nice to him? He's just going to screw you in the end... uh oh, I feel another Supernatural reference coming on...Frodo is Sam, Gollum is Ruby... It all makes sense! hahaha

Random vision of Galadriel! Giving Frodo the strength to go on... before he gets stabbed by Shelob.

Things aren't looking to good for Gondor... or Faramir!

"Bring wood and oil!"

"You are soldiers of Gondor! You must stand your ground against anything that comes through that door!"

*trolls come bashing in wearing full body armor*

"Well... crap"

heehee

Frodo has spider rabies! He's foaming at the mouth!

"Let him go you filth!"

YAY!! SAM!! He's here to save the day!!

*dances*

Totally just missed the part where Sam thinks Frodo is dead cause I was playing a game on Facebook *bad LOTR fan BAD!*

That part always makes me sad as well.. "Don't go where I can't follow!" *sniffles*

Now Pippin is going to get Gandalf and Denethor's gonna take the swan dive, after her realizes that Faramir is alive and then he accidentally sets himself on fire.

YAY! The riders of Rohan are here!

This part is sad, they believe they are victorious, even though they went in believing they were all going to die, then their hopes are crushed by the oliphants... literally. :(

Go EOWYN!

She is a warrior princess :P

Oh! I love this part. Where Gandalf is talking to Pippin.

"Death is just another path, one we must all take."

Into the West. I love that song.

*hugs Pippin* He's getting lots of hugs isn't he?

Oh NO! THEODEN!

Here comes Eowyn!

Haha it's the orc with the skull on his head.

YAY! Green sea of death to the rescue! With Aragorn and his entourage.

"I AM NO MAN"

Oh Legolas and Gimli, you make me giggle.

Now Legolas is gonna take down the Oliphant cause he's all hardcore and pretty.

I love it when Theoden sees Eowyn above him does this double take, like for reals, she saved me?

*cries*

He's going to go be with his son. Rest in Peace Theoden, you are made of the awesome.

Oh, when Eomer sees Theoden and Eowyn... that part ALWAYS gets me, but I can't remember which version that is in.

Oh Merry and Pippin! "I'm going to take care of you"

Okay that scene is in the extended edition, cause now we have NAKED FRODO!

You can do it Sam! Go save your Mister Frodo!

"Beggin your pardon but they haven't"

Sam you are AWESOME!

Little orcs!

The manly man boob hold.

SO MANY MEMORIES WITH THIS MOVIE! I can't believe I was a freaking sophomore when this came out. 10TH GRADE! That's it!

Hee, "A diversion." Good to know you're listening Legolas.

"Certainty of death, small chance of success... what are we waiting for?"

Oh Frodo and Sam, they are so worn down. Just want to give them hugs and food and water and more hugs.

"I don't think there will be a return journey mister Frodo."

OH SAM! *sobs*

THE EYE OF SAURON! HAHAHA, Oh I love Frodo's graceful little fall there, I wonder how many times Peter made Elijah do that.

The mouth of sauron... ewww OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

Wait... I think that's in the extended version, yep yep.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Aragorn's speech here!

Let's see if I can type it as he says it.

"Hold your ground! Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers! I see in your eyes, the same fear that would take the heart of me.... bah he's talking to fast.

THIS DAY WE FIGHT!

This movie is so awesome.

"I never thought I'd die side by side with an elf."

"What about side by side with a friend?"

OH SAM!

"Do you remember the Shire Mister Frodo?"

*sniffles*

"I can't carry it for you! But I can carry you!"

GO SAM GO!! You guys are almost there!

"For Frodo."

YAY!!!!

OH NOES! Gollum! Get him Sam!

When everything seems hopeless... the hero always saves the day. In my opinion. Samwise Gamgee is the true hero in this series.

"THE EAGLES ARE COMING!"

"Just let it go!"

Oh Frodo, don't fall victim to it, you might lose a finger...

There goes his finger... ewwww

Gollum's happy dance, that leads to his demise.

Legolas is trying to save Aragorn. Are all of our heros going to survive??

I bet they do! *dances* Get him Frodo!

Bye bye, Ring of Power.

"Don't you let go."

*cries*

YAY! Sauron has been destroyed... but what about Frodo and Sam?

"Rosie Cotton Dancing... she had ribbons in her hair... if I ever was to marry someone, it would have been her... it would have been her."

"I'm glad to be with you Samwise Gamgee... here at the end of all things."

I just realized I've been typing quotes word for word, way before they are even said. haha.

Fake ending number one...

Gandalf saving Frodo and Sam with help from the eagles.

Fake ending number two...

Frodo wakes up in the houses of healing... let the fellowship orgy commence. haha

Fake ending number three...

Aragorn crowned king of Gondor and he eats off Arwen's face. haha I love her final dress. I also like Legolas' tiara.

"Now come the days of the king. May they be blessed."

Hmm does he sing in this version? Yep :)

YAY! Faramir and Eowyn! *dances*

Fake ending number four...
The hobbits head back to the Shire and try to restart their lives. Frodo goes to the undying lands and Laura bawls her eyes out when THE END comes on the screen.

THE END!

haha, Wow that was long.

fandom, laura needs a life, lord of the rings
