Hmmm... I've only watched the first movie and it took me ages to get through because of poor scheduling, and cramps. We sat in a friend's dark bedroom for three hours watching the first and our backs were all super cramped. It was pretty good though.
Don't say mean things to me... But i don't even know what LOTR stands for...
Lord of the Rings. :)I first watched LOTR when I was about ten or so, and the first one I watched was The Two Towers. That was all my brother and I could find at the library to start it off, and even though I got Saruman confused with Gandalf, we became obsessed with it. After The Two Towers we watched the extended edition of The Return of the King, and later on we finally watched The Fellowship of the Ring.
Good times.
You say... you say watched it out of order? It's like watching Doctor Who out of order. Simply wrong.

Pfft, don't worry, you've made us for it by being my friend now:)

It's not sad, it's the way we did it, and I became an obsessed fan through an nonconventional route. And I watched Doctor Who out of order, too, soooooooo... :DWe watched Star Wars out of order, too! Episode I, then Episode II, then A New Hope, then Return of the Jedi, then Revenge of the Sith, and finally The Empire Strikes Back.
Our viewing order was basically determined by what DVDs we could find at the library at that particular time. We scrounged and searched and stalked the library catalog waiting for the right discs to show up, and then we got there early and snatched them. That's how I found Doctor Who, too, last year. We became fans despite it all, and I regret nothing about that.

I have not watched any of those. Actually, I watched a little of the first LOTR in sixth grade choir because we were studyinf film music and our choir teacher was out. She had actually only meant for seventh and eighth graders to watch it so we never finished. Apparently sixth graders can't watch LOTR. Maybe becaus eit is PG-13, but some seventh graders are still 12, so idk. ;-) Either way, I haven't watched it.
I always keep wanting to eat my cherry Chapstick. :( Why does it have to smell so good? I always think it's going to be so yummy tasting, but in reality it isn't.One of the great disappointments of life. *shakes head*
You think that's bad? How about resisting nomming your Mountain Dew chapstick? It's such a burden.
Oh wow, and I thought my plight was bad! That must be painful for you. :(
I've always wanted that edible chapstick, but sigh... 'tis for nothing.*takes a sniff of chapstick and cries*
Most commercial chapsticks make me sick.....(something about the miniscule amount of petroleum jelly that you swallow because it is on your lips)
Yeah, that is kinda nasty. Wish they'd make a good edible kind.
I have an aunt, who is allergic to like everything (most of it is artificial) so she has figured out how to make her own lotions, soaps, lip balms, ect and so if I come help her make stuff I get some of it in return :)

We watched Star Wars IV, V and VI first, and then went back and watched I, II, and III, because that was the way they were made ...

Same!! The first ones were the best anyways...
Elevetha wrote: "That's neat!"Yeah, and I have found I really enjoy it so I am looking into making my own stuff. (once you get going it is a lot cheaper and I have reactions to heavily scented stuff)

The early ones have aged well with me, whereas the prequels... the only reason I could tolerate them when I was younger was because of all the extended universe books my brother and I read along with them.

I have eczema on my arms so I have a hard time finding good lotions and soaps that won't make it angry.
Elevetha wrote: "I have eczema on my arms so I have a hard time finding good lotions and soaps that won't make it angry."That's awful! I get rashes from certain lotions and soaps, too. Sensitive skin, yay! I don't think I have eczema, though. I just get these small bumps all over my hands and they start to itch. Nasty stuff.
Elevetha wrote: "I have eczema on my arms so I have a hard time finding good lotions and soaps that won't make it angry."Ah, I have heard of that....I have no idea if this would not irritate it because I don't have a good understanding of eczema but have you tried straight cocoa butter? It comes in a solid form that you can just rub on your skin and it melts, and it smells like chocolate. A friend of mine has sensitive skin and that's what she uses.

You sound like me. I can use it for a day or two but after three or four days I start to break out.

Yeah, that's not eczema. But any skin issue is torture.

I have not. I shall have to look into it. Thanks! I use Aveeno and this thing called "Udder Cream". Yeah, don't ask how THAT got started. But it works so I don't care.
My dad has some of that udder cream, too. And hey, if it helps out those hardworking cows, it should work spectacularly on humans!
It does! It's so *blanking on the word I wanted* good.Well, that felt inadequate.
"Bloody"? "Wicked"? Those are my favorite substitute swear words. :)
We're so similar it's scary. I say bloody hell. A lot.But no, I meant a substitute for good.
My mirror speaks! :DSublime? Enchanting? We must think of a magical word for udder cream!
Sublime!! Udder Cream is simply SUBLIME!!Divine is good too.

Udder Cream is good! And yeah, you should be able to buy a stick of it. Takes a little patience if it is cold though.

Oh, ours is in a bottle.
