i'd forgotten how nice it is to sit and relax after a long day; having given three massages, shared cookies and coffee with best friend, run three miles, and taken a long, hot, shower... with peppermint soap!

it's nice to be able to idly read email and livejournal, chat, and watch Lord of the Rings (i caught my mom watching it when i came upstairs from shower).

yay being home. :)

I may be the only person on the face of the earth who didn't make the Elrond / Agent Smith connection. It wasn't until months later that I figured that one out. Probably just as well, as it didn't spoil the elven magic for me.

And I think Liv Tyler is a hottie, so again, that casting choice didn't bother me in the least.

And some people grump about Orlando Bloom, but physically, he is an elf. The boy was so graceful throughout the movie. And his archery! There are generally two types of archery in Hollywood movies. The William Tell hero shot (shoot the arrow off the head, shoot and split the arrow in the target, etc.) or the mass of arrows at the beginning of a battle (think Braveheart). The thing I remember most from my first viewing of LOTR was that Legolas has a bit in that final battle where he shoots four arrows in a row (and I think in the extended DVD it is actually SIX in a row!). I remember walking out of the theater and going, wow, finally a movie where someone actually shoots a bow.

OK, I'm just being a complete geek now.

yeah of coarse they give lego'lass' lot of epic. Axes and Shields still need a coriagrapher that really knows how to wield them. if you seen resident evil apocalypses you'll see the worst misunderstanding of how to use a weapon ever.

i feal i should state that legolas is a great exaple of an and elven archer/dex fighter, actually the casting of the movie was flawless in my mind who else could tell the story of the dwarfs gust my being there side from John Reese Davis. it also helped that he and the hobbits where the the right hight proportionally.

im hoping there will be a hobbit movie cause i hear there are quite a few dwarfs in it
