Yo!

Back from theaters... The Hobbit...

 

lol, no. i mostly eat in truckstops. I just cut my intake by about 60% over 6 months. hard to stay fat when you work but dont eat.

an example of the new stuff i been finding today ​

that's Marilyn Monroe btw

 

well if you cut out salt it will help.

damn!

 

:hi: Iron

I heard the Hobbit was 2 hrs 45 minutes of slow going. great visuals a story slower than dirt. How they're going to stratch 1 mid sized book into 3 movies Ill never know

nice to see you Iron, did you enjoy the movie?

 

theres a whole LOT of great Bettie stuff on that one

 

I don't know what's in Jackson's mind... But something is sure : he wants to expand "his" universe (his vision of Tolkien) and make the right links to The Lord of the Rings... and it works!!!

AMAZING movie overall. I know it's a little slow but it's the same really than the trilogy. Let say that if Bombadil was in the first movie (The Fellowship), I think the movie would've been almost 4 hours and more... and if Saruman was appearing in the Shire instead of Orthanc... The Return of the King would've been like 5 hours long!

But I won't tell anything from the movie. You can expect to see a few more things and that is why the movie can be very long (and there'll be an Extended Edition too).

 

hmm, I'm not sure if I"m sold on it yet Iron.

 

Well... The Hobbit totally outclassed The Dark Knight Rises for me.

 

I prefer the Batman Series to LOTR personally

 

but hey, to each there own my Friend!

 

I understand. I grew up with LOTR movies so it was somehow great for me to return to Middle-Earth.

 

oh I can imagine there Iron. glad you enjoyed it.

 

And I got all the books (or almost) so I know Jackson is doing the right stuff now.

Anyway, gonna take a rest.

Laters.

 

hmm, we'll see. Ive been reading the middleearth books a little over 40 yearsnow and i absolutely detested the lotr movies.

Im sooooo not interested in jackson's opinions on how to "update" the quintessential fantasy series. I wouldnt pay $.05 for anything jackson came up with. Leave the stories the fuck alone. just put them up on screen just the way theyre written and cut out wha you HAVE to. Dont add a goddamned thing.

I still say lotr should have been done by the "shrek" movie people. theres no other story that could have been done as well in cgi. Avatar tech/cgi with Tolkiens story.

 

take care there Iron.

997 pics for the day and that tumblr is done

 

wicked there Cy!

I never really got into LoTR. it was okay.

 

the movies were crap. They were "updated" to be more "in tune" with todays sensibilities. That just means they added a bunch of pc crap at the expense of cutting the story.

 

you should read the original books. NOT the movie adaptation books. your library should have all 4
