Gandalf movie magic

Movies can produce great magic, but will it be as magical and mystical as when Gimli, Legolas and Aragorn encounter Gandalf after his death and finally realize its him (that slap of cold rain) or when Theoden finally opens his eyes to his folly and calls for his sword .............. I truly hope the movie version of Two Towers will not fail in its attempt at magic

I have faith in PJ to do a good job--if I didn't I would go insane (unless I already am. . .)

The way things are going so far, I can't say I'm worried.

I will be looking forward to him doing a so-so job. I did it before and liked FOTR so much that I came back for 8 more showings.

Go PJ! I dare you to surprise me again. Heheh.

Oh no, Aldesign! I'm afraid you just might have to kill him, because I really doubt there will be Lembas. I know they filmed it, but I think they cut it because-I dunno why, I wish they wouldn't. I really want to see Lembas. But I think we will all have to be dissapointed.

Well, I know that Arwen is in the credits for TTT. Just pray she doesn't show up at Helm's Deep.

What if she does in an Aragorn dream sequence. They can use the uproar caused by such rumors for publicity purposes you know.

Too Bad Christopher Tolkien didnt agree to help with the movie - his expertise would have been invaluable.

Or it might have been really messed up. You never know. I'm not sure C. Tolkien's advice would have helped--it might have hindered. Then again it could have been very brilliant. We will never know.

Yet another superflous post by me And my first in two weeks!

I agree. It would've also damaged the credibility of the estate if it didn't come out as fans expected even though it had a Tolkien "imprimatur".

P.S. Welcome Back EG!

Hey! I for one support PJ! How cool is it to do that sort of thing knowing that if you get it too wrong millions of fans may hunt you down? Support the Movie-Maker! Support PJ!
