The Return of the King...

[fajrdrako]

At lunchtime I went to the Rideau Centre and bought the DVD of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. After work I went back to the Rideau Centre and returned it and went to Rogers Video on Bank St. where they were selling it for seven dollars less.

And then I spent the evening watching it. I watched the specials; noting particularly what good hair Viggo Mortensen had on some days, and how nice Karl Urban looked.

Then watched the movie itself, fast-forwarding over the Gollum bits and indulging in freeze-frame and slow-motion when Aragorn and/or Legolas were around. Love the Palantir scene in slow motion. Oh yes, Legolas would carry Aragorn up a mountain if it were necessary.

And Pippin: he's just wonderful.

How can I continue to like that story more and more?

Undoubtedly. And maybe not even just because it would give him plenty of thigh-touching time. *g*

I like that thought. Though I'd like to think that Legolas would fully appreciate thigh-touching time.... Ahhh how wonderful they are.

Ahhh how wonderful they are.

Mmmm, yes. So wonderful that Leggy cannot resist copping a feel in the midst of the Palantir crisis. The tramp. ;-)

The tramp.

Ah, but that's what makes him such a wonderful Elvish prince! Grace... stamina... endurance... perseverence. And always right there behind Aragorn of course.

Are we having a RotK party at some point?

Well, I certainly hope so! We just need to find a time. Hmm. Friday? Sunday? I think those are my next free days or evenings.

Sunday would be good.

Let's see if we can set something up.
