Two Towers Thread!

[LadyArwenUndómiel]

I've noticed that there are many discussions concerning the first part of the Lord of the Rings while the sequels remain a mystery. Some of you have been lucky enough to see the special preview in theaters, but if you haven't, go to this link:

planetmirror.com/pub/movie_trailers/L2Towers.mov

Yes, it does take quite a while to load, but it's certainly worth it! Once you have finished viewing the preview (or perhaps even if you don't want to see it) feel free to post your opinions and actual facts on the new movie. Spoilers are permitted, though endless debates will have to be dealt with.

See you all here on the Two Towers Thread!

So it looks like nobody has anything to say! I have to admit that the picture is kind of blurry (to be honest) though Gil-Galad was kind enough to email everyone another link where the trailer could be found. However, it appears to me that the following site also has a Lord of the Rings trailer with a really clear picture.

www.lordoftherings.net


would be the site.

wow i cant wait to see the next movie!! i wish it was decemnber right now!

(me and my friends are going to pull a starwars and wait outside the theater, the night before it opens)

[LadyArwenUndómiel]

You're so lucky, Mel! Where I live, there is only one girl in my grade besides me whole likes Star Wars. All the other ones are only into clothes and that sort of stuff. They even think I'm weird because I like Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. (Bizare fantasies, at least that's what they think it is.) But I'd rather be looking at new Elvish words than some of the things on the their preference lists. Think that is bad enough? There were only two Lord of the Rings fans in my grade last year and now one moved away, leaving me to be practically the only one with a BIG interest in it.

However, I've ordered an Elven leaf brooch and will get an Elven cloak made which I am going to wear to the movies when I see the Two Towers; hopefully pointy ears and Elven clothes as well.

For all of those who are looking for costumes: You can try ebay searching for larp and roleplaying (there are more of us out there than you may think, at least over here in Europe...) If you want to try sewing for yourselves, people in the middle ages didn't have sewing machines, so patterns are very easy to follow.

[Melian]

ive already made part of "melody's" costume, though im not shure if it is elfish enof. but my next project is to make the elvin cloak, and atach a leaf shaped pin, or fasiner.

[Rhiannon]

If anyone needs some help on patterns, material, sewing, feel free to ask ;D

[LadyArwenUndómiel]

Any websites for Elven cloaks? Would be happy if there was one...

Thanks Rhia!

Thanks Rhia! Where do you find all of this?

[Rhiannon]

Let's just say that I've been into all kinds of Roleplaying for some time already....and that my "favourites" list is about 50% roleplaying with Larp being not the smallest category... ;D

[Melian]

wow that so cool (whats larp?)

[LadyArwenUndómiel]

The only problem is that I don't know too many people to role-play with in everyday life. Wish I did!

Live Action Role Playing....

People who like hanging out in castles or hunt down orcs in forests in their spare time....

note: No, I'm not on one of the photos... ;D
