Ah, yes, Isildur's famous line: "No. Made with mematic"

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 29 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Hang on, is that Isildur's only line?

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Unless you count Gandalf reading Isildur's scroll, which I think is only in the extended cut.

Yes, the one most people actually watch.

I thought most people still watching LOTR are LOTR fans, and LOTR fans only watch the extended editions.

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

So the most people have seen the theatrical, but the extended gets watched most? Seems plausible.

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 4 points 3 weeks ago

Sounds right to me

I've never seen the non-extended version

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You didn't go see it in the theater?!

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I was either not yet alive or 0-1 year old, so no.

Ah, you sure missed out. Seeing them as soon as they came out it was quite an experience. But at least they hold up well. They still look better than most modern movies.

And he doesn’t even do the voice for it, it was done by Hugo Weaving in a voice over. So Hugo is technically talking to himself in this scene.

the heck was wrong with the other guys voice

Jackson didn’t think it sounded menacing enough.

"Naw, bro."

"Okay, we're gonna fix that in post."

if they ever made a half-life movie, this would have to be gordon freeman's dialogue.

people are always yelling and screaming and talking at him, but every time he goes to reply something interrupts him. finally, at the end, when the g-man makes him that 'employment offer' after defeating the nihilanth, he gets to finally say ONE THING ...

...it has to cut to black before we hear it XD
