OK.  That means you haven't seen ANY of The Lord of the Rings in theatres!  GO SEE Return of the King! Shocked


I've heard that the "Rings" movies were good , but I never really got into those stories. But maybe I should see what they are all about!
I just can't see spending the same price to see a movie in a theater when i can wait a month or so and buy the video and view it as many times I want.
But I also don't watch much tv anyway!! The only thing I watch are CSI, and 24 (I like short titles Smiley )
My favorite movies are the older war movies, especially Midway (saw that in the theater, COOL!) Tora,Tora,Tora,
Flying Tigers etc.

I feel a bit sorry for you.  You missed the best three movies of the past ten years.  LOTR is a movie that begs to be viewed on the largest screen possible, simply for the vast scope of the drama and action.

I can't believe it!  You've never heard of Bridge Over the River Kwai? Shocked  Starred Alec Guinness (sp?), aka Obi Wan Kenobi.

I'm only 22, and I remember that movie.  How old are you?

I'm sure you've heard the theme song to the movie: its a favorite for those who whistle.  Try looking up the title to the movie and see if you can find a music link.


Bridge on the River Kwai? I'm only 17 and I own a copy of that Grin

Loved the movie, liked the theme song 8)

Being viewed on the large screen reminds me of what I said about Midway. I remeber when that was in the theaters and one of the big promotional things was the "sound". I don't remember what they were calling it but today it would be known as "Surround Sound" . If I'm not mistaken Midway was the first movie to use the "surround type" technology.
By the way my two ALL time favorite movies:
The Wizard of Oz
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
