    I have to go to work tomorrow. It sucks, wake upa t 6 am to go to do work in an office block in the city, doing industrial clean up. I am going to hate it. I am getting paid though, so its not too bad.

    Awful? That movie was great! Even if there was some problems with military tactics.

    Ara, you need to release the purist Tolkien snot in you for a while and rejoice when someone does something according to the books :D

    One thing I am not quite clear on, did anyone ever actually yell out Elbereth Githoniel?

    I don't think Aragorn ever did, but Frodo might have when releasing the ligh of Ellendil in the caves of Shelob.

    I noticed that Frodo yelled out something, but it didn't really sound like a sound someone invoking divine powers would say...

    Edit: Anyhow, it's the light of Earendil, isn't it?

    Well of course it was terrible if you compare it to the book. No movie has ever been better than a book!

    I'm seeing it this afternoon, and since it's been a loooong time since I read the books, I don't expect to be disappointed. :)

    @ Aikanaro

    I do hope you don't take the ingame sounds of the CRPGs featured on this site as a reference as to how a divine invocation should sound like. Those are IMHO not much better. (though they are which says alot about Frodo) I believe like you that it was indeed an invocation. If not someone prove me wrong.

    @Ara: if it was your idea, I need to kill you first. Nothing personal ;)

    So are these things just excuses for people to post crap?

    Great admin idea - stops people starting their own threads about crap... I can think of some other boards that should try it.
