sorry, decided not to spoil it for you.

What? you think I haven't read the book??? I have read all three of them in fact...

What I mean was how the movie is gonna be like, in terms of how they are going to describe the scene from the book to vision.... the way they design Isengard, Helm's Deep, Rivendell, the crater of mount doom itself, the way the landscape looks... What the battle scene looks like, what the spider that stung Frodo looks like....

No one will know until the 3rd one.... unless they release a sneak preview.

i liked the two towers, but i don't think it entertained me as much the chamber of secrets did (maybe im just a kid at heart :D) ....

that said, the special effects in the two towers were absolutely amazing. the fight scene at helms deep was tantalisingly real as it could get, some of the tactics used, such as the ladders, were just fantastic...

and the fightin trees and the water....oh how cool!

and how does appreciating a movie relate to being nerdy? :shake:

im so keen to see it i have read all the books except the 3rd one which i will read b4 the movie. I cant see it yet the cinemas are to packed and alot of tickets are prebought so im got some for sun night. I didnt like the way the story of gandolf(spelling) and bilbo was so compressed in the the first movie but to get this right they would of had to do a seperate movie so all in all they did a good job. You dont have to be a nerd to like a movie or a book thats like saying you a pervert for admiring a fine woman!!!!!!!!!:lol:

mad movie!  

Whats the name of the book for part three ?

I wanna read it before the movie comes out !

Anyone?

The 3rd one is The Return of the King - much better if you read them all though starting from The Hobbit.

Self confessed Tolkien fan

the film was great but i enjoyed FOTR more than TTT since Peter Jackson didn't play with Story as much in the FOTR.

He messed some of the story up big time.

Faramir, Eomer, the Elkengard (spelling), Haldir the love triangle to name afew things.

Don't get me wrong I loved the film as the effects were great and the battle was at Helms deep was amazing. Golum was awesome and I think hes portrayed better in film than in the book. I just think the few story changes Jackson made detracted from the film abit which made me enjoy it less than i would of.

Oh and a last note which twit reviewed TTT for the Sydney Morning Herald. Lol his comments made the West Australian and boy did he stuff up. Pointing out bloopers that weren't even there, from what he said it sounded like he hasn't read the book properly and doesn't know the story to well. ie he was complaining about things that where left out when there not due to shoe up till ROTK haha. Also pointed out that Jackson used his kids in the film and himself as an extra in the Helms Deep battle, why not its his movie and directors do it all the time. Man that reviewer is a tool.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
