Introductions

[Mary-Therese]

you don't think it's scary?!

[a v a]

OHHHH I know what you're talking about now!!! Like when he went all Gollum mode on Frodo bc he wanted to see the ring?!!?!? Now THAT was FREAKY!!!!

But in the Hobbit I really like Bilbo so when you said that I was like WHA????

[Mary-Therese]

Oh, my gosh! Martin Freedman as Bilbo Baggins is one of my favorite things in this world. legitimately, no one else could have played him.

[Mary-Therese]

p.s. is it Freedman or Freeman?

[a v a]

idk... but i totally agree, he played the part perfectly! his dry sense of humor tho!!!

[Book - Dragon]

AAGGHH!!! NOT THE BILBO FACE!!!!

[a v a]

IKR!!!!

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

Lol I find it freaky but it's definitely not the scariest thing for me...
Also does anyone else find a certain amount of extremely sadistic joy when Saruman gets impaled on the water wheel? Or am I truly a psychopath? Or both? XD

[Book - Dragon]

That part......disturbs me. So does the part when Gondor is being attacked and they throw the heads of the people they killed over the wall into the city. I....I just can't watch that part. I always close my eyes.

[a v a]

this isn't a super violent part.... but the part when Boromir's dad is trying to burn his other son alive. at that point in the movie i'm yelling at the tv

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

Lol!!! I'm always screaming at Gandalf "GET PAST THE DARN RINGWRAITH AND SAVE HIM ALREADYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!" XD

I love Faramir! Don't kill Faramir!

[a v a]

ikr!!! at that point in the movie the dad has gone insane. absolutely insane

its obvious that the dad favored boromir more than faramir

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

100% correctness

[Kat]

For me, the scariest part of the movies is the paths of the dead

[[deleted user]]

Yeh, but theyre also kinda cool.

[Book - Dragon]

I'm actually not allowed to look at the screen during the paths of the dead when Frodo falls in.

[Book - Dragon]

I scream at the tv also. Why couldn't Gandalf have been faster on the bridge in Moria?! He didn't need to check that the Balrog had fallen then proceed to slowly walk away!!!

RIGHT!!!!! I could've been having a tantrum from the way I was dying at the TV when that scene happened XD

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

Lol for a second I thought you meant the door under the mountain and I was like... but but but it's such a cool scene! And then you said Frodo fell in and I was more confused...
I'm tired guys.
Yeah, I refuse to look at the screen in the dead marshes with the lights and stuff.
It's toooo creepy.

RIGHT!!..."

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why do you voluntarily stand on the end of the bridge for flipping no reason so you can get killlleeeeddd?????????????? And then I cry every time they come out of Moria...

[[deleted user]]

SO HE CAN BECOME MORE POWERFUL!!!!!!!

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

I mean, you right, you right. But at the same time...
Why would you legitimately do that unless you knew?
Except there's no evidence from the books that he actually knew...

[Alison]

Dramatic tension XD

Idk...

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

lol just my LotR deep nerd appearing...
See, he didn't do that in the book, he fell off much more abruptly, so it just strikes me as... odd the way they did it in the movie.
And it makes me want to scream lol

I mean sammeeeee it's gross and creepy and I'm sorry Peter Jackson but WHY. Just why???

[Book - Dragon]

Oh wow! I just realized I said that I can't watch the part during the paths of the dead, I meant the dead marshes! I am not allowed to look at the screen when Frodo falls into the dead marshes.

[Book - Dragon]

The paths of the dead aren't that scary. I think. It's been awhile.

[[deleted user]]

Thats what i guessed you meant.

oh i was talking about the dead marshes lol.... what's the path of the dead... why don't i remember that part?????

[[deleted user]]

With the skeletons and ghosty-things

[a v a]

what movie? 1,2,3?

[a v a]

oh oh wait i remember.... it's not that scary

[Book - Dragon]

The paths of the dead are in the last movie. Yeah they're not scary really.

[Alison]

Yeah. I was honestly fine with both scenes. The dead marshes were just really weird, but I was fine with it.

[Denali, Head Mod a.k.a. Meradoch ~ Oversees All Debates]

Lol I hate the dead marshes with a passion, but whenever we get to that part of the movie, I just pull out the book and we read the part instead of watching it. It's better that way. XD
And I honestly find the paths of the dead pretty awesome! :)

[[deleted user]]

Well there goes the introduction topic 😂Lol

[Austin, Assistant Mod]

Hello, I am Austin. I am about to graduate engineering College. I am a avid Christian but horrible sinner. I am a amitour historian. As well as occasionally get into apologetics as a hobby. Unfortunately some of my views are a bit radical because I have had to hold onto my self through College bombarding me with all sorts of propaganda. So please forgive me, I try not to offend people but I know I will on accident. I am also in finals week so I will not come on regularly.

I am always open to talk history and theology

[Fortissimo]

Welcome Austin!! You sound like a very cool person.
