-Gollum/Smeagol

-Gandalf vs. Balrog

-The music. I loooove "Gollum's Song", which plays at the end credits. I also love the Norwegian fiddle (yes, I looked that up) which first plays when you get the first glimpse of Rohan.

-Is it just me, or does Rohan and it's people remind anyone of the village and villagers at the beginning of "Conan the Barbarian"? Is it just me, or am I a very big geek to even have seen that movie to be making such a comparison?

-Aragorn, Aragorn, Aragorn. Aragorn busting through the doors in the keep at Helm's Deep.

-the battle at Helm's Deep

-Gandalf, Eomer, and company coming to save the day

-Eowyn. She loves the one she can't have. I can understand that.

Now, this is what I didn't like.

-Aragorn falling off the cliff. Was that in the book? No.

-waaaaaaay too much Arwen

-Faramir being so evil

-Legolas skateboarding down the stairs

-I understand the need for a little comic relief in a movie like this. But Gimli burping in the middle of Theoden and Aragorn talking?

Anyway, it's still a good movie. Other than that, I've mostly been eating all day. And bothering my sister with my unenthusiasticness. Life, perchance, is good occasionally.

Well, I won't be writing for a couple days I don't think, as I am off to more family festivities involving a few thousand little cousins and several acres of Chex party mix. So, everyone have a very Merry Christmas or a happy Wednesday, whichever you prefer. Goodnight all. :)
