So passes the day when the Extended version has been finally released! What did you all think of it (taking that you've seen it or at least seen clips and whatnot of it). Lil' note: If you haven't seen the EE yet, this entire thread will be full of spoilers, so if you aren't the type of person who loves spoilers and would die to hear every rumor known about the Extended version *coughmecough*, I would suggest not reading this too much.  Well, the one scene that is really sticking in my head at the moment is the scene when Eomer finds Eowyn. Aww, it was soooo sad when he just screamed his guts out when he found her!! *bawls* I really never cared that much about Eomer before, but now that I see that, I love his character!! *sniff* Anyone else have any comments? |

Ooh! I so saw that!! And it was so awesome! And Faramir and Eowyn so didn't kiss!!!
*calms down* Okay but seriously--I thought it was pretty good. For the bookies out there, a good bit of the extended material is direct quotes and scenes from the book, which I found quite enjoyable.
Some added stuff that I particularly liked: Merry talking to Aragorn after Pippin rides away with Gandalf. This almost made me cry! I felt so bad for Merry, being parted from his little buddy like that, and the way he was talking.........I dunno- it was just very sad.
The Decay of GOndor or however that was tyitled--this was really neat I thought because it drew so much from the history that isn't exactly in LOTR. A lot of it sounded like it drew from the history of Numenor, and was a veryy good look at why Gondor was so weakened. definately interesting stuff.
And of course--- the drinking game was hilarious!!!

I do like Eomer's scream and I loved the drinking game, but my favorite EE part was when Aragorn thinks he has failed after the Paths of the dead. I think it showed great compassion between Estel and Legolas. It made me cry.

That part was good too!! "You must come to Minas Tirith by another road. Follow the river and look to the black ships." <---Awsome. |

Oh, that moment when Aragorn sank to the ground...yes that was sad! I teared up just at the look of utter despair on his face. And Legolas coming up like that--one of the few leggy moments that I acctually liked.

*Sobs*  Aragorn looked soooo defeated in that scene. And Leggy just comes up to him and supports him with their friendship. IT IS SOOO TOUCHING!!!! |

I absolutely loved ROTK EE ;D
One of my favorite parts, other than Wiki and his fell beast getting slayed by Eowyn as usual, is the fact that it showed Sauruman getting his staff broken. It was just so awesome, since his staf is an arachtypal element that shows his rise and power. And then Gandalf just breaks it by saying a couple words. Oh and how Sauruman dies, cool, but gruesome.
*sonic sings Ding Dong the wizard's dead* ;D ;D ;D
