Oh man... if they do the bit with Éowyn right it's going to just rip my heart out.
From what I saw in the trailer... (the part with Éomer on the battlefield) ...looks like I should be putting in for a new heart ASAP so it's ready in time for Christmas.

I'm doomed! Doomed! There's no way I can handle such stress! I didn't see the second one because it was too stressful... how am I going to manage the third!- I throw up under stress, not a pretty occurance...

I promised myself I wouldnt watch the trailer. Last time, when the two towers was showing, I watched the trailer about 40 times in three days, and was so hyped up and excited that when the actual movie came around, I thought it was kind of a let down. I finally broke down and saw this one...and wow. I know its going to happen all over again, but that was really, really cool.

Man... The Nazgul look so badass my knee is shaking uncontrollably... I hope that they do Saruman's death right, though...

I plan on camping out on main street Bozeman to see it at the famous Ellen Theater. Cool kids will fly to Bozeman to join me in this.

Credit to both of you for even being able to download that Chinese copy. I tried all afternoon Friday and couldn't ever get the page to load.
It makes me more than a little nervous about watching a movie when the trailer can nearly bring a tear to my eye. I may be a blubbering fool by the end of this one. (and I don't normally cry in movies)
78 days and counting, fyi

Am I the only one that thought Shelob looked too small?
Aside from that, it's a great trailer... Vána and I are already budgeting money so we can see it as many times as we like. Posts: 753 | Registered: Mar 2001

I'll go see it with you Toretha, as long as you don't lean over and ask what someone's going to do next! And can A come too? Pretty pretty please?

I'm sorry , Narnia. I couldn't get yours to download. It kept locking up my comp, to the point I had to unplug the thing to be able to restart it. So when it came up on the quicktime site, I started a new thread. Sorry if I stepped on your toes.
Lime- Yes, you are. I'm not sure how far behind him that opening was supposed to be, though. I always thought of her as a bit larger than the hobbits. My hubby, the arachnophobe, was stunned, and that's good enough for me. Posts: 9293 | Registered: Aug 2000

Yeah, I always thought Shelob was if a size that hobbits could crawl under her legs. Not really sure why I had that impression. The shelob in the trailer reminded me more of the spiders in the dark forest in The Hobbit. But, other than that, it looks great. Having read the books you can pick out the single second flashed pretty well.

It's been said before - but the Shelob we see in the trailer is ONLY HER HEAD and a leg or two, creeping around a corner. I have a feeling the rest of her's gonna be frickin' huge.

There is a perspective problem in the small clip we see in the trailer. It is not easy to tell how far Frodo is in front of Shelob and so it's not easy to tell how big she is. I suspect that the movie will show us enough footage to clarify the issue.

I got money says that ain't Shelob. I bet it's a minor minion type spider.
PJ is way to tricky to drop his underwear in a trailer like that, but he is EXACTLY tricky enough to give us a glimpse of something we will all think is Shelob.

Slash, wow... I didn't think about that, but it is a strong possibility. I don't think it's true, but I don't discount the possibility.

Slash, Unless PJ has made some very significant additions to the tale (which certainly not impossible) it has to be Shelob. Frodo is holding the glass of Galadriel in his hand and is clearly moving through a cave. The only time this happens in the book in in Shelobs lair and Shelob had not giant spider minions in her lair.

Jenny, my dear darling beloved sister who suffers the torments of a thousand Robyns without complaint, can I see RotK with you?
Mayday, of course! And WHY would I bother leaning over and asking what was going to happen when I already KNOW? Besides, I only do that when I know the person has SEEN the movie before.

Slashy, he did it with Gandalf... I HATED having him in the trailers for TTT. It spoiled that scene for people who hadn't read the books, and ruined the suspense for those of us who had.

Well, I listened to it 3 more times....**breaks down weeping and muttering to himself**
This is truly Hell on earth......Library computers were just donated by Microsoft....you'd thing they would know how to play a damn windows media-player video clip....

I think the tease was seeing 'part' of Shelob, and not the whole damn thing - just like the Balrog in Fellowship - we only saw his foot, not the entire thing in its splendiferous smoldering beauty.

There shouldn't have been that many shots of Eowyn-the-crossdresser, in my opinion. In the movie, It would admittedly be impossible to pass Eowyn off as a man, but it shouldn't have been so blatantly obvious in the trailer.
And the Saruman death thing, I don't know how PJ would do it. He said in the Extended FotR DVD he's not doing the sacking of the Shire. He'd have to make something up.

Did you all see that spoiler picture I posted a while back on the ROTK pictures thread? I'm too tired to go find it, but if you want to know a little bit about what happens to Saruman, you should check it out. I think it's also on ringbearer.org. Pretty shocking and NOT IN THE BOOK if you ask me!

I think he has set the stage to have Wormtongue kill him-- the tears Grima sheds in TT make it obvious. He DID, in the books, didn't he? I think the setting and means of the act will be different, but it makes sense.

Here's the link. I didn't post it directly to the picture because you need to be amply warned that there are spoilers. Saruman, you LOSE honey! Posts: 6415 | Registered: Jul 2000

So far, my favorite part of the trailer is when Gollum realizes that Sam was listening to his little "precious will be ours" speech. His grin disappeared faster than mushrooms on a Hobbit's dinner table. Posts: 4116 | Registered: Apr 2002
