was an excellent movie. was a little slow in some parts, but i guess thats what happens in the book. most annoying bit was the dialogue between froddo and sam whilst there are 3 other fight scenes happening around them...

never read the book (you can't beat dolby digital 5.1 :D) but from all reports its pretty close to it...

out of the 3 BIG MOVIES currently screening ie. Star Wars, Harry Potter and LOTR, i would say "Chamber of Secrets" was the best comparing it to "Two Towers" and "Attack of the Clones"...

thoughts?

I havn't seen "Chamber of Secrets" so I can't comment on that one, but there is no comparison between "The Two Towers" and "Attack of the Clowns".

George Lucas should have his Director's privleges revoked for that one! :uh-huh:

What a piece of $h1t3. Hopefully for the next one they'll lock him in a room and ONLY seek advice on concepts from him.

"The Two Towers" while not the best movie ever made, and without the depth of character involvement as the first, is still a fantastic movie. Can't wait to see it again. :D

I've seen it, the battle scene was awesome, although for the ent creatures I expected something a bit more tremendous, not just some walking big chopsticks as how I see them...

The way the orcs invades Helm's Deep looks more like the Roman troops way of battle... don't you guys think?

I liked the 1st one better due to the fact that it shows more nice places & buildings of Hobbiton, Rivendell, Moria, etc... but since the 2nd part is mostly happening around Gondor/Rohan/Isengard, so I can't protest that it only shows the barren landscape in that area.... Great battle scene is the main feature of 2nd part...

Wonder what the 3rd would be like.

Well, I can tell you how it will end

"the hobbits take the ring to mordor, go up mount doom and..."

sorry, decided not to spoil it for you.

These are among the best movies I have seen, compared to other crap efforts (eg any stephen king movie), these have been really close to the book, and for a movie they make a good attempt at depth of story.

    • It really depends on your setup. Mine is 'accidently' more suited to revving higher. bigger cams, turbo etc. Plus my super long first takes donkey years to come onto boost, so if it will move my power band to the right, maybe i'll pass on this. i have a G45-1500 going on there soon which I suspect might make it more of a fat pig.
    • Yeah good call, I will endeavour to tuck that down when I rewrap the looms it’s pushed up by
    • Good work. I will say, this line circled however, will potentially pool with oil, as it's going from high, to low, to high, before heading downwards.
    • Yeah, thumbsup from me. The distant shot of the bay just looks same-same as before.
    • Dad had a court case drag out with them from 1998 to 2004. He was in a not at fault accident, NRMA were the ones who covered the other person. They tried to blame his neck injuries on the fact he'd had an injury in 1981 on his extreme lower back where he slipped a single disc right near the bottom. Had been all cleared from that injury for years. This accident destroyed his shoulder, and f**ked a heap of discs in his neck, and he still has major problems with it to this day. Sarah's sister while on her L plates had a small Suzuki Alto, she had stopped to give way to an ambulance, and someone changed lanes behind her because there lane was also slowing, and rear ended her at 80km/h. (She had been stopped for a few seconds already too!). Car was completely f**kED. NRMA sent the vehicle around to 3 different workshops as they kept claiming "We believe it can be repaired, and not written off, we just need to find the correct workshop". It took 3 months, and a lot of arguing before they'd concede and wrote it and paid out. About two years later her sister had a Lancer, someone pulled out of a stop sign without stopping (in an 80 zone). Her sister swerved, hit the front of the other persons car (Instead of dead t-boning the drivers door), which ramped her Lancer, and made it roll multiple times down the road. It hit every panel on the way through. Her sister had slid her self out of the car, and remembers the ambos walking to the accident (They'd been sitting at a set of lights just down the road and witnessed it) and they were saying "Well, this ones going to be a fatality, no way you can walk away from that". Well, she did. And then NRMA sent two assessors out to look at the car, both of which wrote it off. They tried to send another assessor out, except a HUGE uproar was raised, and they FINALLY paid it out. That was on a car, that had damage to EVERY panel, you could see from 100m away the whole car was also twisted, roof bowed etc. Nah, we'll try get out of needing to payout on a $10,000 car... Her sister ended up with major shoulder reconstructive surgery being required, and was permanently limited in her ability to do her job as a nurse after that, as she can't (And was told before surgery too this would be guaranteed to happen) regain full strength in that shoulder. However, there was no choice to not have it, as she could barely use her arm, which was her dominant one, and was in near constant major pain. (And she's the type of person that would try and walk off a broken leg!) NRMA did the biggest run around on the personal injury side too for about 18 months, even to the point of trying to put 100% blame of the accident on Sarah's sister, even though the other driver admitted she didn't look, and didn't stop, and was charged by the police. Sarah used to have a Barina insured with them. It was a policy setup, paid all 12 months in advance. At the end of the 12 months, Sarah was living with me, I reviewed the renewal, it clearly stated "If you do nothing, your policy will cease on XYZ date". We did nothing, as we moved her insurance in with all of mine and I was with Shannons. We find out 10 months later, NRMA decided, because he DAD had a car insurance policy at the same address as what Sarah's mailing address was (Garaged address had been changed), that they'd put Sarah's (What should have been non existent policy) onto her Dad's month to month charges on his credit card. We had to jump through hoops, to get a refund. They didn't care that we actually found the letter that said "If you do nothing, your policy will cease" they made us prove we had NON COMPULSORY insurance else where before they'd issue the refund, and after they agreed to the refund, it still took another 6 weeks and 3 more phone calls for them to actually process it. They also had two insurance claims from storm damage, and they were an absolute cluster to get resolved as well (one vehicle, one house). Some how, up until about 3 years ago, her parents were still loyal to NRMA too, and we were like "How the hell are you so loyal to staying with them, when other places are so much cheaper, and they've f**ked you over every time you've ever had to make a claim?"
