It occurs to me that both series do this big dramatic thing at the end where there is a battle around some lava and fire, or um, at least at the end of ep3... so I guess that isn't the series, so nevermind. Seriously though, there were some shots of Frodo at the end where he's backlit by fire and he looks just like Anakin. But then, I've been ( Read more... )

We are 1 hour, 37 minutes into the last movie...

"Bring them to me raw and wriggling!" Gollum
"Just how I want Frodo!" tiggrrl

"I think Eowyn may be as good a cook as Yoda!" tiggrrl

"Please, eat" Eowyn to Aragorn, after he finishes telling her that he's 87 years old.
"No! I'm not going to make it to 88!" khanfused

"There's another culture that goes bra-less." khanfused on the elves.

Last movie!!!

Twenty hours in, and participants are dropping like Nazgul over Minas Tirith.

the_misha is down, having fallen asleep sitting up and then given in and moved to the bed.

darkmoon, rainyadair and silentr0b are down, lying on the floor.

No one can tell about bridgeweaver, although he admits to fading in and out.

erisian_fields and I don't count, because we are support staff and therefore have gotten sleep.

artistic_chaos: Hey, who's snoring?
khanfused: The one in the middle.
artistic_chaos: Hey, you, snoring person!
rainyadair (snoring person): Whahuh?
artistic_chaos: No snoring ( Read more... )

the_misha: "Lord of the Wars: A Special Kind of Stupid."

darkmoon: "'Peril' is the new 'penetrate'."

rainyadair: "So what is this movie about?"
the_misha: "It's about eleven hours long."
[Editor's note: Yeah, yeah, I know, that was an easy one. Sorry.]

rainyadair: "I'm noticing a lack of lightsabers in this movie so far."
the_misha: "Well, he's got a mace."
rainyadair: "It doesn't say 'Windu" on it!"

Treebeard: I promised Gandalf I would keep you safe, and safe is where I will keep you.

darkmoon: NO! Don't put them somewhere safe! You'll never find them again!

Yeah ... we're fast running out of steam here. Time for the espresso in the I.V. drip.

... and I went completely off of caffiene almost a year ago. Daamnnn ...

I think we're pretty much screwed, at this point. We've been cooked a lovely breakfast of blueberry pancakes, but really, the only comments anyone is making anymore involve "your mom" and some derivation regarding "snakes on a plane." The babies are fussy, the adults are fussy, people are getting cranky from being awake all night... for those ( Read more... )

Well, it's 6am... We've been going for 18 hours. So far, there are only two of us left that haven't fallen asleep for at least a little bit...

We have a couple of snorers... er, people that snore. Or something.
