Not as easy as I would like...
Dec. 3rd, 2002 09:18 amI've decided to go "Spoiler Free" for TTT.
STOP LAUGHING!
I realize that is an odd statement since I have read the book, obsessed over trailers and photos and collect the Trading Card cards... And I love spoilers. The big, general "here's a pic with Sam and Frodo and Gollum" wet-your-appitite-type spoilers.
What I'm trying hard to avoid all those specifics found in reviews and detailed spoilers.
You see, last year I went to see FotR with very little spoilage.
I walked into the movie and was blown away. It reminded me of all that I loved about fantasy and renewed my passion the the genre. I realize it won't be the same this time but I do want some of it to surprise me. I don't want detailed dialogue or movement by movement scene discriptions. I don't want to know what PJ added or tweaked or left out. I don't want to know how he fits the elves in or how he uses Arwen. I don't want to hear people moaning about how he possibly may, based on short clips and rumors, ruin Eowyn and Aragorn.
I don't want all of these thoughts running around in my brain.
I want to be blown away. I want to be surprised.
And I have complete faith that I will be.
If only I can avoid the spoilers.
