he's good in everything I've seen him in, never saw the Gangs of New York. He was great in Name of the Father

After a pretty dissapointing summer outside of The Avengers and The Dark Knight, its nice to see some good more adult themed movies coming out.

there is a demonic movie coming out soon too. yes, I too have been interested in what's qued up

Yes, though for some reason I just can't get excited about it. I loved the LOTR movies, but I never really cared for the Hobbit story. I'll probably still check it out though.

LOOKS GOOD

speaking on Lincoln and one see the vampire hunter one?

I like it as a stand alone book, the other books JRRT wrote sucks that I read so far.

The Lord of the Ring Novels are very hard to read for me. They are ok for a while, then a Hobbit starts singing a song while eating lunch for 8 pages and my eyes start to cross.

IMO, is one of the very best bad-guys in movie history. GREAT part... AMAZING job acting..gave you chills when he walked into the room in that movie.

I'm not sure Tolkein ever meant to release much other than the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The rest reads like a history book, because that's what it was meant to be. I've always been fascinated by the universe he created, because it was so immense. He was a linguist, by trade, at Oxford, and literally created full languages to use in five lines in a book, but he'd document it through the histories (most famously the Silmarillion).

No, what's it about?

Looks awesome. Historically correct or not.

That was why i did not like the books, they were like history books. I read Simarillion (own it too).

I heard DD lewis has to take years apart on roles because he becomes so involved with the character he plays.

I honestly couldnt even tell it was DD lewis at first. One of the best actors of all time.
