I didn't want to like it. But somewhere around the exploding dirt I just couldn't deny the love any longer.

@Jonn: Take. That. Back.

@BioLady: This is me without pot. With pot.... well... that's a whole other thing.

"But at least it's a reminder that Carl's Jr. is still in business."

I see very muddy green, that was too blue, but also too yellow. It also kept shifting as each eye tried to make one image go 'on top' of the other.

@codepage9: Well, I was going to post about the Colossus, but since you've covered that, I'll just say why I love them.

@Anthony Duncan: If I can't be the one who says it, at least I can be the person who promoted it.

Big brother - little sister?

So you're saying I have until the end of next year to finally get past those stupid blue people.

@a.seivewright: Well, to be far, he was playing Boromir for like fifteen years before LotR as well.

@WookieLifeDay: He's amazing! When I read the book for the first time and he shows up in the last fight (or I think more properly, when Bilbo is told he shows up in the last fight) I literally jumped for joy.

@SupaChupacabra: I couldn't agree more. In fact I think that's the biggest problem with his cameo. In the movies Legolas becomes , well, what you just described, but in the Hobbit the elves are these menacing, scary, untrustworthy people who could just kill the dwarfs at any time. It's gonna be hard to buy that…

@WookieLifeDay: Agreed. There is a whole cast of new and interesting characters out there. I would rather be hearing about Beorn or who is doing the voice of Smaug.

At the time of the Hobbit Legolas lives in Mirkwood where his father takes the party of dwarfs captive. His is actually one of the few cameos from the Fellowship that would make sense in the Hobbit.

This is how my heart feels whenever I hear Carl Sagan's name.

@green-phoenix: I agree with everything you said. I think if they took the best parts of Smallville and told it in a 4 to 5 season show it would have been some killer good tv. As it stands it's a big, slow, boring show with a few great episodes a season.

@Jim Topoleski: I would seriously argue the point that the Hobbit is easily told in one movie. It's just as dense as LOtR and it has a lot more action instead of just talking and walking. It might be a lot shorter, but it's a very detailed story.

@Ryozenzuzex: Don't they meet him in the Fellowship, while they are traveling down the road? I find it odd that they shoehorn him into the Hobbit, where as you point out, he doesn't appear, while leaving him out of the actual place he was.

Forgive me, it's been a few years since I've read the Hobbit, but I don't remember Galadriel being in it. Elrond, yes, but not Galadriel.
