OT: The Two Tower.

Of course the movie was good. I expected no less. But IMO the first one was way better. Maybe I am already spoiled by the very high standard they set in the first, but I didn't have that totally blown feeling that I had one year ago.

Well, I really enjoyed it. Storyline changes aside. I was glad to see Haldir and the elves at Helm's Deep :-) Anyways, I though the actor who played Grima Wormtongue was great. Gollum I enjoyed too. I did find the Sam/Frodo bit (ansd the ents) less enjoyable than the action in Rohan, but then I think I thought the same when I read the book. All in all, a great effort, just as good as the first, if a little different.

I should add one thing that I totally enjoyed and that was that the Riders of Rohan are basically Vikings on horses .

And to you Fantasy watchers ,this is just a rumer ,there is a 3rd movie in progress.

I enjoyed it much more than the first one, more action and the fights at helms deep was great. Although i seriously doubt the dwarf comedy bits were in the books

Heman, they can't make 2 and then miss out the third book lol, that'd be just mean

lol! That is great Heman. Thanks for lettings us know about that.
And actually it's not in progress, it's already been filmed. Over the next year they will just be adding more footage to what they already have.

i like the idea they had for filming this trilogy all at once instead of individually. it was a bit of a risk for them to do it as they werent sure if the first one would do well at the box office. can you imagine spending 3 years filming a movie. i wonder if they ever wondered which life was real and which was a story.
