Legolas' Eye Color
From Amanda: I recently noticed a lot of people commenting on Orlando's eye color changing in TTT.
When the Elves are more at ease their eyes are more blue, green, or purple and when they are angry or feel very intense they change to a darker color.
Just thought people shound know so that they dont think that it was an error in the movie
-Orlando Bloom FIles

TheFellowship.nl has posted a new cartoon of Legolas and Aragorn. Click to see it!
IMDb.com currently has 'The Two Towers' ranked second on their top 250 movies of all time-list; not because a lot of people voted for it but because a lot of people gave it a good grade. The number one spot is for 'The Godfather' and 'The Fellowship of the Ring' is currently at number 7. Thanx to Morog for the heads up!

This bandwidth thing is really bugging us. We never thought so many people would visit this site. Our daily 20 Megs bandwidth is gone by 5:00 P.M. We would have stayed at Blogger but our image server (Imagemagician) started charging money....and we're poor...hehe...Also we thought it would be nice to have more than 1 page. We emailed the folks at warofthering.net to see if they could possibly host us. *anxiously waiting for reply* If anyone can help us...please email us at doubletigatagweed@yahoo.com

Previous DGA nominees Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers), Roman Polanski (The Pianist) and Martin Scorsese (Gangs of New York) – none of whom have ever won.

Click here to read some information on general dates for ROTK and the dvds.

Some info on ROTK:
The final scene of the film, which takes place across the landscape of the Grey Havens is tipped by the director to be his favourite of all three films, the high point of the story and what everything has been working towards. "To me, it's a culmination of the entire story," he says." It represents what it is to give and what it is to lose. That scene is probably the most powerful part of the entire film."
Thanks to TOR.n

Oii... most like
Pippin? I feel bad for your parents there, kid! They must have to spend a
fortune in order to replace all the things they break. (I'm sensing an overload
of plastic in your household.) Clumsy, you are, but your sense of humor keeps
people from throwing you out. So you may not have the most common sense... let's
just say that people consider you as something you can't live with, but can't
live without. Which, is a good thing! Really.

The Résumé

Occupation: Actor/Model

(January 28, 1981- )

Born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Starred in 'Lord of the Rings,' 'Flipper,' 'Paradise,' 'Radio Flyer,' 'Good Son,' 'Avalon' and 'Back to the Future II'

thought Elijah Wood was annoying!

Why he might be annoying:

He said 'If I wasn't an actor, I'd be a secret agent.'

Since he was home tutored it was a lot harder for Elijah to make friends.

Why he might not be annoying:

Roger Ebert has called him 'the most talent actor in his age group.'

In USA Today, he said 'I wouldn't even think about taking drugs. I think it's ridiculous! I think people are throwing their lives away (1994).'

LotR Pipeweed ---- Blog

Site Description] A blog that centers mainly on LotR news, quizzes,
reviews,
pictures, pictures, pictures, and more =) Run by four girls, but I
believe
that Meera and Allison are the main owners..site-runners.. things...
Very
interesting and amusing.

Splash Page (10): [in this case, main page] Hmm, I like the top
picture. It
could use some brushing up, but it might be that you don't have the
right
programs. I still like it though. The name is nice. Pipeweed =) 8
points

First Impression (5): This site did take a while to load (in fact I
think
it's still loading 0_o) but that's okay because I can still look at
stuff
while I'm waiting for everything to load instead of sitting there
tapping my
furry feet. The graphic at the top is nice, but again, could use some
improvements. The about section is small but informative. 3 points

Layout/Looks (15): Top picture is nice, but could use some brushing up.
(Wow
that's the 3rd time I repeated that. Whoops.) I like how tables
separate
each day's entry. But it does take a long while to scroll through, and
the
archive doesn't work, which is vital and extremely helpful to the
visitor.
10 points

Navigation/Organization (10): The links, images, about, tagboard, etc.
are
all arranged on the left.You might want to take out some of the
pictures and
just leave a regular text link, because it can throw off the sort-of
"flow"
of the site, if you follow me. And you might want to start an account
at
brinkster or geocities, and then make a page with news events and past
things so it'll be more organized. Then you can link one or two pages
with
that information from your blog. I'm not familiar with blogger, so I'm
not
sure if you can make separate pages for other purposes on it. But I
understand that this is a blog, so that's how things go, I suppose. 6
points

Content (25): Ah, I love going to this site. It's something you should
go to
every day or every other day if you want to stay up-to-date with the
stuff
most people would want to know. They update everyday, which is very
good,
and have news, information about the trilogy or the actors, pictures,
reviews, quizzes, quizzes, more quizzes, and even more. I'd say it has
enough information for a blog, in fact, it goes beyond that. And the
girls
are so funny too =) 24 points

Updates (5): UPDATES! EVERYDAY!! Woohoo. 5 points

Originality (10): Very original. 9 points

Webowner(s) (10): This site is run by 4 girls, but it seems that Meera
and
Allison are the two main owner-people-things. They're very kind and
update
very often, everyday I believe. They are always in good spirits and
happy as
well. 10 points

Other (10): [Links, fonts, colors, grammar, etc] I'd like it better if
the
links looked a bit different from the regular text, so that way I could
actually tell where the links are easily, but at least it says "click"
or
"here" where the links are, which helps a lot! The font is nice,
century
gothic, very nice font indeed. There aren't 5000 different colors on
the
page, which is good. YES! THEY HAVE CAPITALIZATION! And good grammar!
I'm
not an English teacher so I'll let the few mistakes slide. =) There's a
tagboard as well, so I can leave a message if I need to. Also plenty of
extras, such as outside links, blinkies, sprites, nice codes to use
(though
a 100x35 one would be very useful). However it would be better if the
outside links opened in a new window, so I didn't have to exit the blog
to
go to them. An easy way to do that is to put
before
the tag, so all the links on that page will open in a new
window.
But if you want any link to stay in the same window, put . Simple enough, eh? But I don't know if Blogger
lets
you do that, once again, I don't know how blogger operates. If you need
anything, just email me and I'll be glad to be of service. I like your
site
though. 8 points

Any negative points: -2 because the archives link doesn't work, and it
is an
important link indeed.

Total: 81 points -- Good, Nicely Done!

It would have been Tolkien's 111th (eleventy-one) birthday today, January 3rd, 2003. Tolkien was born in South Africa on January 3rd, 1892.Also you can click here for a link to the official Pirates of the Carribean site starring Orlando Bloom (Legolas). You can watch a trailer but they don't show any people in it...oh well...it still is pretty cool. Here is a site with all the elvish dialouge in FOTR, FOTR:SE, and TTT!!!

Allison adds: We should have a big birthday party for him! After all, "111 years is far too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits!" ^.^

As you may have noticed while watching TTT, many scenes that you saw in the trailer didn't appear...click here for a list of all the scenes that weren't shown in theater. Let's hope they'll come up in the extended version :-)
