Did anyone else cry? - Page 2

Iboen · 02-17-2003, 08:22 AM

I cried silently in my chair at the cinema. I reckon it was so bad but now i know what happens in the second LOTR so i'm OK now

I don't cry at movies, really. I get really teary eyed. I think a few tears slipped for FOTR though... I can't really remember. The part where Gandalf died.... I cried in that part in the books.... Boromir dying.... yeah

For TTT, I got a bit misty eyed when Haldir died (I KNOW IT WASNT IN THE BOOKS OR W/E BUT THE ELVISH DEATH THINGY WAS SAD!!)

I felt this overwhelming empty sadness sort of thing with Elrond and Arwen, when they went forward to Aragorn's grave scene and Arwen going thru the woods.... it gives me the chills.

And at the Helms Deep part, with all the recruiting of dudes. Yeah.

Ho hum, I'm a nutcase.

Elf.Freak · 02-17-2003, 12:00 PM

i cried when:

Gandalf fell into shadow
Boromir died
And the bit where we see Frodo hugging Sam at the end (true freindship, awww!)
And in TTT, i got misty eyes when we saw Arwen leaving, poor Aragorn (stupid PJ would probably have him marry Eowyn... ¬_¬)

Blackboar · 02-17-2003, 01:20 PM

I cried in Sam's big speech near the end, and Arwen leaving, and when Gandalf died and when, basically I was crying all the way through both films.

Hanza · 02-17-2003, 01:24 PM

Awww You soppy little girl blackboar j/k

Elf.Freak · 02-17-2003, 02:08 PM

i also cried in Sam's speech, thanx for the reminder Blackboar!

i will cry when it's the last day that ROTK will be on at the cinema, i probably won't leave!

I cried one tear when Frodo screamed, "NOOOO!" after Gandalf's fall.

**Nurvingiel** · 02-17-2003, 03:59 PM

I cried when everyone thought Gandalf was dead. Even though I knew he doesn't die there, there pain was so real, I cried.

I also cried shamelessly when Boromir died.

I didn't cry in TTT, only FotR. I expect RotK might make me cry.

(If they do the scene at the Battle of Pelanor Fields where the heads of their comrades are catapulted over the walls.)

Varda Oiolosseo · 02-18-2003, 05:48 PM

oh Yeah me too! I was wondering what that might be like but i can imagine it being sad.

Gwaimir Windgem · 02-18-2003, 06:06 PM

I don't remember that!

But it would be pretty effective if they spend a little time building up their characters. But of course, we all know PJ would NEVER take time away from Tolkien's story...

**Nurvingiel** · 02-19-2003, 02:35 AM

Do I detect a note of sarcasm?

I think the scene I described in my spoiler would be extremely sad! How could it not be!? It has all the elements of a good PJ scene: dramatic, meaningful, and fun with special effects.

Eerowyn · 02-19-2003, 04:35 PM

I didn't cry in the first film but, however, I did happen to cry during the second film. *raise hand* Aragorn fan. Much.

Lady of Rohan · 02-19-2003, 07:46 PM

Like I said earlier I didn't cry in the first film but I did in the second when Sam gave his speech, when Haldir died, and when Aragorn died/ passed out after the warg fight (I don't know how I could cry about the warg fight because I knew he didn't die but Iwas also laughing because Legolaslvr! was so shocked and sad because she hadn't read the book and she tought that he really did die. It was really funny to watch her cause she was about to scream).

samwise of the shire · 02-21-2003, 12:12 AM

From what I've heard, read, whatever ROTK is

going to have the audience crying 40 minutes into the film

and I also read that

the movie's gonna be a blinkin' 3 1/2 hours long

I'm going to have to take a whole bedsheet to wipe my tears, or maybe I'll just use my cloak. I'm goin' dressed up next year...all the way. Feet and all.

Cheers all,
Sam

#1GaMGeeGuRL · 02-21-2003, 06:25 PM

Yup. I cried in four different places in LoTR and not afraid to admit it. Gandalf's death (or falling into Shadow), Boromir's death, when Sam was going to drown and when he said his line, "I made a promise Mr. Frodo, a promise! Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee. And I don't mean to, I don't mean to." Then I got upset when Gandalf yells at Pippin and Frodo yells at Sam in TTT. Also cried durings Sam's speech and when Sam and Frodo are talking in the end. Then when Haldir died. So you're not alone. I've been told I put too much emotional stock in LoTR. But who listens to the nonbelievers anyway? But god I loved the part when Elronds telling Arwen how it'll be. So creepy. Someone refresh my memory (I only say TTT twice--darn my mom!) does Arwen leave for good?

help me how do you get a pic under your name??????????????

Please don't use a topical thread to ask site-related questions. Read the FAQ, do a search (you'll find more than a couple of topics related to avatars [picture thingies]), or PM a mod or admin about that kind of thing. Thanks.

#1GaMGeeGuRL · 02-23-2003, 03:28 PM

I'm not supposed to do this but here: just find a picture you like on the net, right click on it, go to properties copy the site there and then go to edit options and click on 'change avatar' and paste it in where it says 'enter url'. You might want to delete whats already there though. Or you can upload one from your computer. The catch is it has to be a certain size (small!). Hope that helps.
