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:

I got payed to watch it :D

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.

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
