"That Only Counts as One!"

I finally saw Return of the King today! YAY! It was an AWESOME movie! Legolas is a bad ass, and I don't know why, but it took me until this movie for it to hit me that he is pretty hot. Not Brad Pitt gorgeous, but Orlando Bloom is pretty hot. Also for those of you who know me, I absolutely loved the Shelob scene. It's one of those scenes that is really cool, but I hated it because most of you know that I don't mind bugs, snakes and rats, but when it comes to spiders...yeah, I'm a weenie :) The dude who played Gollum in the beginning was freakin' sweet. He looked so much like Gollum , it was freaky even though I bet that was the intent... I'll refrain from reviewing the movie because by now, anyone who's wanted to see it has seen it. So I will post the following list of things NOT to do in the movie theatre while watching Return of the King. Also, it might help for you to know that there was a little alcohol involoved while compiling the list :)

1. Stand up halfway through the movie and yell "Hey! Where the hell is Harry Potter?!"
-There was a preview for the new Harry Potter movie! That made me happy too!
2. Playing a drinking game where everyone takes a shot/sip everytime "the ring" is said
3. Dress up as old ladies and reenact "The Battle of Helms Deep" Monty Python style.
4. Everytime an orc dies yell "that's what I'm Tolkien about!" That one's really really bad...
5. When they pan out with a wide shot during a battle ask "Where's Waldo?"
6. Imitate what a conversation between Gollum, Dobby the house elf, and Yoda would be like
7. Release a jar of Daddy Long legs during the Shelob scene. *shudder*
8. When leaving say "Lucas could have done it better..."

Some of those are pretty good, but some are just plain bad. Like I said before there was alcohol involved in the making of the list.
That being said, the movie was good and I'm tired :)
