Re: The Hobbit

I can't see the images on the previous page either, but thanks for the link, I can see all of them there. :thumbs_up

Re: The Hobbit

Howard Shore made a killing on the LOTR soundtrack, I think he was "underwhelmed" too. As much as he claimed he would love to write music for these films forever, I think he lost some of his enthusiasm for it. Maybe it was momentum he lost, or the thought of how badly LOTR legitimately exh...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Olorin""]I don't know. I think he looks too evil to fit my impression of Feanor. I think Sauron in his guise at Annatar, caught in an unguarded moment when he realizes his plans are going sour, would look a lot like this.[/quote] [quote=""Valkrist""]I...

Re: Escape to Middle Earth

Over the course of many millennia I happen across ancient friends and relatives. While I respect the privacy of members, and especially my customers, I understand the desire for anonymity. It is, after all, the reason we chose names and avatars. I, of course, find out the true identities of people w...

Re: Be at Peace, Dear Bailey

[quote=""Buckeye""]My most heartfelt thanks to everyone. Your kind words and healing thoughts are *much* appreciated. The past few days have been an emotional and physical rollercoaster. Bailey, who was almost 13 years old, was a very special girl. There is, indeed, a hole in my ...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Lindir""]So, today I received something I've been after for a while. My parents got it for me as a gift for getting into university and also because I wasn't able to go to Florence when I paid over ?400 for it Only problem is the little metal plate came off on the front ...

Re: Escape to Middle Earth

There has been chaos within the castle for many months. All too many trips to the surface to attend to other important needs. I think sometimes that. as much as all those other items are very important, it is equally important to take some time to myself. I have been reflecting back on a very import...

Re: Shire Post Coins

[quote=""Valkrist""]I see what you're saying, and knowing that you had to research this extensively in order to safeguard your business, I will defer to your greater knowledge on the subject. I'm not an e xp ert in legal matters, but was only trying to apply some reasoning to thi...

Re: Shire Post Coins

[quote=""Valkrist""]... but rather that when you combine all those elements and mass-produce replicas, advertise them, and sell them within the context of a existing and copyrighted body of work, you are in fact infringing upon the law.[/quote] No offense to you in any way Val, b...

Congrats on your wedding.
I need not guess who will be ruling who :crazy:

Re: The Hobbit

Like the rest I have yet to see the third film, but so far it isn't the way I remember it happening.

Re: New Weta everywhere you look!

[quote=""Nasnandos""]I can't think of any period weapon to compare it with, since this has a curved blade on both ends. I can imagine a fighting style that would work with it and look good on screen, but I did not swing the prop around to know if what I picture in my head is prac...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Fingolfin""]This made me think of something kind of random: Thranduil and his court undoubtedly lived in his Hall, but where did the rest of the kingdom live? There was never any description of where people lived in Thranduil's kingdom. Did they live in trees like their ...

Re: Pure StarWars Discussion

[quote=""Khal1993""]Just seen this thread lol. Check out my website www.krsabers.co.uk It's my site for my custom Lightsaber hobby. Got links to my YouTube and still got many more pictures to add to the site gallery.[/quote] Khal, those are very cool. I liked your vid's. My age i...

Re: The Hobbit

Knowing that PJ wanted Helms Deep to be epic, and proceeded to make the battle on Pelennor field EPIC, this new title tells me he's out to blow that battle away. Somehow I already can see the arrival of Dain coming across like the arrival of the Rohirrim, only 10 times the numbers. It doesn't sit we...

Re: Escape to Middle Earth

I guess I should clarify that Feanor didn't actually apprentice anyone else but his own sons, of whom Curufin was his favored pupil due to his own talent. Curufin in turn apprenticed many other elves along with his brothers, and thus the skill in craft continued to e xp and. So among all elves, we a...

Escape to Middle Earth

As the Hobbit films unfold, a lot of you have commented on how these new films lack the "magic" of the Middle Earth e xp erience that LOTR possessed. I agree. There's a big difference between Tolkien and LOTR films, but at least the films successfully took you away from our world and into ...

Re: The Hobbit

I have been meaning to ask this for a long time, but it slips by easily.
Anybody here noticed in AUJ that when Radagast draws the dark magic out of Sebastian the hedge hog with his crystal, Sebastian comes to and says, "I'm fine"? :|

Re: Which old UC item would you like to return most?

My High Elven Warrior Sword remains to come. You may recall I am customizing it from long ago. I just thought I'd bring this up so those of you still hoping to get a hold of one would know. I haven't finished it yet, and what I'm doing remains to be seen. If successful, I think at this point in time...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""EagleFriend""]Interesting rumor but really, I wouldn't mind if they call it "The end part" as long as it is a good movie since DOS was, for me, almost an empty shell with no soul, so filled with Hollywood blockbuster action that Middle Earth almost disappeared ...

Re: Gandalf's Hat!

[quote=""Buckeye""]N2, your Gandalf display just keeps getting better and better! Very nice. :) [/quote]
That's for sure.
Move over Weta displays, N2's mini museum continues to be the best display :thumbs_up

Re: Orcrist Revealed

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Valkrist""]As for Legolas' personality shift between trilogies, I too am hoping there will be some big moment of personal growth in the final movie. However, the most likely e xp lanation for Legolas' differences in the Hobbit movie is that PJ clearly knows exactly which...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Idril""]Thanks Lindir. That was very interesting. How I love that sword.[/quote] Yeah all of Peter Lyons swords are awesome. I realize he doesn't design them, but whoever did Lee Pace's sword really created a work of art. I didn't want to say MY sword :P I wish is was MY...

Re: United Cutlery's - The Hobbit - Movie Props!

[quote=""Lindir""]Just wanted to share this video. It's from the blu-ray special features for the DOS and there's a good few shots of Thranduil's sword. Also if you look closely, you can catch a better glimpse of his scabbard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwTOtaE5ap4 Can't wai...

Re: The Hobbit

[quote=""Lindir""]I can become immersed in a movie but I have never lost myself in anything before whether its a game, movie, book or a TV show I'm always aware that its not real. I have seen loads of people say around the internet that they look at movies and its like they're ac...
