61 - Repeatedly point out how much Elvish sounds like Welsh.
62 - Prove point 61 by loudly dubbing the entire in film into Welsh. 63 - Repeatedly point out how much 'Elvish' sounds like 'Elvis'. Accompany your observations with hilarious "Elvish Elvis" renditions. 64 - Come to the cinema dressed in a 50 foot high, suplhur-belching Balrog costume and sit in the front row. 65 - Explain to everyone that if this were nethack, Gandalph could easily wipe out that orc army with nothing more than a wand of polymorph, some blank bits of paper and a magic marker. 66 - Discuss in depth the resemblance between the Eye of Sauron and a certain part of the female anatomy, and the Freudian socio-psychological implications that it casts upon the makers of the film.

Re: [OT} What *not* to say at Lord of the Rings
70 - During the spider attack on Frodo, say "Man, he should have used Deep Woods Off..."
And the piece de resistance... 71 - Get two friends. Two of you should dress as robots, the third in a blue jumpsuit. Sit in the very front row of the theater, and say all the lines in this thread VERY LOUD at the appropriate moments. And every once in awhile say, "Hey Dr. Forrester, when's the commerical break?!?" |
Re: [OT} What *not* to say at Lord of the Rings
72. Warn your friends that you will talk during the previews, but fail to warn them that you have issues with large spiders jumping out of dark places.
True story, went to the movie with a crowd of friends. Chick friend sat next to me and totally freaked out at the Shelob scene. I had no idea, no warning that she was going to scream.... Goddamn adrenaline kicked in like cold coffee with ephedrine for creamer and I was high for the next twenty minutes. I think her boyfriend/fiancée/husband (not actually sure of the status of that) was trying to calm her down, but she screamed again when Frodo got the hypo-loving. On the plus side, for the rest of the movie I got full claim to the armrest on the other side, as some stranger decided he didn't want to sit on our row after all. |
