Oh man. I'm screwed. Darn the way time flies!

Oh my god. It's today. It's the fourteenth. Of December. Of two-thousand-four. RotK:EE is officially out in stores. ... Holy mother...

I... really don't think I'm prepared for this day; neither financially nor mentally. *quickly determines whether or not I have $40 to blow* Frell. Maybe I shouldn't have bought Spider-man 2, Titan A.E., Shrek 2, Holes, All I Want (Try Seventeen), and Big Fish all within the last 8 days. ... Hey, everything save the first two were only $5! You can't beat that! And even Titan A.E. was just $5.50! Spider-man 2 was the only whole-priced thing I bought!

But even still. I'm scared. I'm nervous. I'm praying that Sean Astin knows what he's talking about. Sean, don't fail me now. As we've seemed to have a like mind on everything LotR related up to this point, including a mutual feeling of disappointment in Rotk, I hope that I share your love of the extended edition. I also hope that PJ hasn't hax0rd that all to hell since you last saw it as well.

While I was in NJ 2 weeks ago I saw an article in the newspaper my father was reading about the EE. I, of course, promptly ripped the paper from his hands and began reading with great joy. But of course that only lasted for one paragraph, for as soon as they began listing some of the deleted scenes I read part of the first line listed and threw the paper from me in disgust. So honestly? I have no clue what to expect. I'm just... terrified. But... I don't know. I just hope it really is as good as Sean says it is, because I enjoy agreeing with him on almost everything since he is by far the lesser adored of the four hobbits. *shakes fist at fangirls*

Frell. I really, really, really wasn't prepared for this day to come so fast. Really. REALLY.

*continues cursing to myself*

That is one of the few new scenes I'm excited for. Houses of Healing. Yayness.

Let's hope so. If Sean Astin has the faith, I can have it too. ;)

well i watched the faramir/eowyn scenes and i still feel jipped at the lack of interaction, but at least it is obvious that they are together.

Yeah, I remember being highly annoyed when I saw RotK in the theaters because there was NO Eowyn/Faramir and then ALL OF A SUDDEN they were together at Aragorn's corrination...

Argh... PJ, WHY did you have to be so obsessed with horror/blood/war? Because seriously. I could have done without that extra half hour of battle scenes for something more tangible... gah.

I still haven't bought the EE... *blushes*

Yeah, when I saw ROTK in theaters, I just about hurled something at the screen, I was so mad! I know i was smacked a few times by my friends and told to shut up because I was whinning so much about the lack of faramir/eoywn.

They show some more F/E in this, but not enough for my taste. stupid PJ.

BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT

I'm scared too. I just remember sitting after RotK in the theater wih my arms crossed complaining and the guy in front of me telling me that half the things I was randing on would be in the Extended Edition the following year. And I replied that I didn't want to wait a year. Well I've waited and that thing better be woth it!

Hehehehe, I have all those movies save All I Want (Try Seventeen). You sound like me. Why do you think I own the DVD of Super Mario Brothers.

You. Rock. So. Very. Much.

*hugs you*

I still haven't gotten the EE. *blushes*

[identity profile] jedi-bria.livejournal.com 2004-12-19 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't gotten it either.

[identity profile] lordoflorien.livejournal.com 2004-12-19 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but that's because YOU are counting on getting it as a present. I, on the other hand, am purchasing it myself, and just got my paycheck yesterday so I have the funds to do so.

*points to icon*

Look, it's your boyfriend. ;)
:D
:*

*runs*

GRRRRRRRR!!!! You better run! *throws an apple stole from Barbossa at you... and at Jack*

And even if I wans't counting it as a present, I still don't have the money to get it.
