I just got back from watching the new Star Trek. I don't really consider myself a trekkie but I loved the film. It put the fun back into Star Trek.

I have just watched online, the Hunt for Gollumit was good IMO sound needed tweaking a bit, viewed it in full screen, enhanced definition as opposed to HD 40 minutes of Joy. link for anyone who is interested.

Watch the end titles out-takes - well worth staying for! :twisted: and the behind scenes video for Hunt for Gollum too.

They have another 'short' coming out in the Autumn this year - an hour-long movie Born of Hope about Strider's parents. This is a more engaging storyline with a better background laid out by Tolkien and it seems like the fan-fiction storyline they've woven into the 'canon' is better thought out with original characters brought in reasonably plausibly including a female warrior which should please most people (I'm pretty sure she's gonna go down though! ).

This next film looks more promising cinematically - not as unrelievedly dark as Hunt for Gollum for one, although that was always going to be a requirement as the little rat didn't like the light at all...

Already a little miffed with the portrayal of Elrond's sons in this next one though - they're mostly Elven and not a half-blood like daddy and nice to look at - but their 5 o'clock shadow was rather off-putting for we full-bloods...

and shes off

 

[Jan Van Quirm]

Well it's like Elrond said Chris - put not your trust in Men...

Wise words :twisted:

And Ladies prefer pointy ears...

 

[Dotsie]

I know I cetainly do - Zachary Quinto as Spock, my goodness!

 

[Jan Van Quirm]

I love Spock period :twisted:

I play a girl-elf character who's a cross between Spock and Judge Dread - never had so much fun!

After months of having the Da Vinci Code on DVD finally got round to unwrapping it and watched it last night prior to going to see the new one next week, it was quite entertaning.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

I loved the book until the ending.

The ending was a total cop-out in my humble opin.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Now THIS, if you've read the Da Vinci Code, is hilarious!

Or This one by A.R.R.R. Roberts The Va Dinci Cod.

I read that. Very much recommend it, however, do not read it in public.
People look at you funny when you're laughing and spitting and stomping the ground.

Ok, more like chortle and snort, but still lots of stomping.

His others are quite good to, spoofs on the Hobbit and Simarillion and the Matrix and Star Wars, I have not yet got the Dr Who one.

Couldn't cope with Lost for more than 11/2 season myself. Did they ever figure out what that invisible thing chasing them trough the jungle was??

Not really and although we stopped watching it a year or so ago, the last five minutes are on just before Life on Mars so we got into the habit of watching the last 5 min every Wed night. You can pretty much catch up on whole hour because none of it makes any sense anyway as far as I can tell.

They kept saying that last night was the series Finale... but no, they set off an atomic bomb in the bottom of some stupid well, and showed the word LOST and announced another season is in the works. Wheeee another year not to watch, eh?
