The Two Towers on TBS.
I see no reason to watch big films cropped and chock full o' commercials, but I adore TBS' repurposed promos.
Sounds like a prirate thread to me.
grrrrrrrr.
You know, I was thinking of remarking on the previous thread that in honor of my birthday, I'm blogging in my birthday suit.
But then it flashed upon me that I would be setting myself up for a sarcastic rejoinder, e.g. "Well, it looks like Atrios was right-- it's 'shorts' weather in every sense of the term!"
So, since there's not a snappy comeback in the world that could nullify the devastating humiliation of so cutting a remark, I decided not to risk it.
I was so mad I spelled 'condemn' wrong. Can you see why the Angry Left cannot be trusted?
i'm way more angier than all of you!

Forget Boromir. Faramir's the one. At least in the book. They did kind of play with his character in the movie.
And smalfish is so angry he can't even type straight. That really steams me.

Why can't you LEAVE SMALFISH ALONE? His decades of service to the cause of Stalinism put him beyond reproach. Limousine liberals like you make me almost as angry as the idea of a just and loving God who will judge men's sins.

Here's a great Easter movie...
Night of the Lepus
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069005/
Cole Hillman's Arizona ranch is plagued with 'mongrel' rabbits, and he wants to employ an ecologically sound control method. As a favor to college benefactor Hillman, college president Elgin Clark calls in zoologist Roy Bennett to help. Bennett immediately begins injecting rabbits with hormones and genetically mutated blood in an effort to develop a method of disrupting rabbit reproduction. One of the test subjects escapes, resulting in a race of bloodthirsty, wolf-sized, man-, horse-, and cow-eating bunnies. Eventually the National Guard is called in for a final showdown with the terrorizing rabbits.
Officer Lopez (over the speakers at a Drive-In): Attention! Attention! Ladies and gentlemen, attention! There is a herd of killer rabbits headed this way and we desperately need your help!

I'm also angry because my big furry cat (whom I brushed brushed brushed this morning and got about a pound of shed fur off of) wants to sit between me and the monitor. And then he purrs. And licks my face. That makes me so angry I just have to put my arms around him and give him a big hug and kiss.

Moonbootica, Praetor
I'm so shrill I've started wearing earplugs. Not only does it protect my ears from the debilitating effects of my continual, outraged shrieking, but it also protects me from hearing the Good News from Iraq.
I'm still pissed that the ringing in my ears has not gone away. about all I can hear is ringing. Maybe I really am angry.
loved Sean Bean in Sharpe.
in the mid 90s Bernard Cornwell Sharpe novels were dramatised for TV.
the freepers got yer anger right here:
During an MSNBC TV show in September, Cindy Sheehan said Youngblood's (an Iraq war-widow) baby would be "fatherless for a lie."
This is where I wish Youngblood slugged the crap out of Sheehan. What a frickin mean b*tch, that Sheehan.
I'm sure Youngblood has too much class to stoop to Sheehan's gutter level but it would have been a well deserved clocking. I can't believe that any jury would convict Youngblood for knocking the cr*p out of Sheehan after a comment like that.

Speaking from experience, it just might be wax. The men in my family have a history of wax build-up in their ears. Every five years or so, I end up having to go to the doctor and they irrigate my ear and big plug of wax will pop out.

They not only have feelings, but they're mad as hell at being toppled out of the arbor last night. And just what am I gonna do about it, they whine???
Heavens, here it is a gorgeous day and I have to get ready to sing at church tonight, and then go to the party aftewards and quaff champagne. (We do the Easter Vigil right.) And it'll be a long beautiful Mass, with lots and lots of music and pageantry and incense and bells and cool stuff, and ten people will be baptized, and we'll give them a standing O, and the party will feature tons of food and drink, and we'll get home about two in the morning. Doesn't that just infuriate you? It does me. Especially because I have to get up early Sunday morning and sing again and go to another party and quaff more champagne. I'm just furious about it, too.
Yeah, in the book Faramir was nothing but noble. They did him wrong in the movie. That makes me angry. (But Boromir is still teh hot.)

It's good. We've got your Bacas. And the Griegos will bring supper.
This is my mad face! GRRRRRRRR!!!
loved Sean Bean in Sharpe.
Yes! I was just about to note that. I liked the line in LOTR when he cuts his finger with Elendil's blade and says, "still sharp," which is of course an homage to the nod and wink he would give in the Sharpe series.
He made a good IRA psycho in Patriot Games, though I didn't really care for the movie much (the commando raid on the terrorist camp was the best, most chilling part).
i bet the guy who played boromir has angry, passionate sex.
you can see it in his face, that scowl.
Then I'm assuming Alistair Sim must've been a monster in the rack.
But where oh where are all the angry sex women?
Speaking from experience, it just might be wax.
I dunno. It could be either because, I was on the roof for hours yesterday, reinstalling my pool solar heating panels. it could be that the wind got in my ear. Or it could be that the chiroprator, the other day, actually cracked my ear bones, instead of allowing the fluid to drain, he actually stopped the flow.
Either way, it sucks real bad.

I'm also angry because we all have to be angry all the time now. Pisses me off.
Yeah, in the book Faramir was nothing but noble. They did him wrong in the movie. That makes me angry. (But Boromir is still teh hot.)
Well, they had to force things to maintain the notion in our minds and hearts that the Ring could corrupt ANYBODY after building it up so much--difficult thing when your time is compressed in the visual medium. And in the end, Faramir was noble, so it's all good.
Just to give a sense of scale:
"Embassy Baghdad" will dwarf new U.S. embassies elsewhere, projects that typically cover 10 acres. The embassy's 104 acres is six times larger than the United Nations compound in New York, and two-thirds the acreage of Washington's National Mall."
Yeesh.
Or it could be that the chiroprator, the other day, actually cracked my ear bones
Sitting here thinking how exactly they could do this and getting frightened (and angry) over this thought.

He got his thumb very deep into my ear, then pulled strait out. It was the dammedest thing. Believe it or not, it felt really good.
And they also had to make him an obstacle in Frodo & Sam's journey. And they skimmed over the subplot where he and the Maid of Rohan (what *is* her name?) get together. So they did him wrong again. Grr.

I'm not angry - anymore...
Oh hell, nerd alert...but here goes anyway. The reason I heard for Faramir being affected by the ring in Jackson's treatment was to maintain the feeling of universal danger surrounding the possesion of the ring. If Faramir were so pure and unaffected by the ring then the toll it takes on Frodo, the fear Gandalf showed in even touching it himself lessens them somewhat. The ring must be 'crack cocain' for the will, instantly and even permanently addictive, in order for it to be properly feared.
Free raisins?
Oh, it's a "hose" they're talking about. Grrrrr.

Old Man - I could swear your nym was always Scene 54, not 24. Now I'm so mad at you for confusing me I may never forgive you.
Yes, I passed out. Or fainted, if you will. I fear that I have a weak constitution, and have been neurasthenic since infancy.
But I think it's important to note that I passed out angrily, goddamnit! And I came to angrily! And even as I am flooded with gratification and affection towards my fellow Atriots, at bottom I am boiling with fury and resentment towards The Unitard™ and all of his heinous works!
I refuse to forego gratuitous profanity and exclamation points! I'm even considering adding the fearsome interrobang to my arsenal of punctuation to better express my unstinting rage and high dudgeon.
Yes, I may treat myself to a slice of birthday cake-- but its aftertaste shall be as bitter vetch upon my palate, all trace of sweetness and savor washed away by my fulminating bile.
Hopefully I shall do better with the ice cream.

Tolkien has Gandalf explain that at the Council of Elrond, before the Fellowship sets out.
Which means Jackson transferred it to character behavior, to better relay it in a movie.

Why, the California raisins, of course!!
AFA Faramir. IIRC, in the book, Faramir was an unknown quality when Frodo came upon him. Frodo did not trust him and it was only at the end where it turned out that Faramir was actually one of the good guys. Faramir was really taking Frodo to Gondor. I thought Jackson really portrayed Farami properly.
I love the Maid of Rohan -- in an angry sort of way.

I must admit I read the book after I had seen the first LOTR film, it was a birthday present from my brother
That REALLY pisses me off. I read it before there were any movies, by candlelight, while living in a shoebox in the middle of the road. Grrrrrr.
The LOTR movies were better than I hoped for but it still makes me sad, Moonbootica, that you did not read the books first.
I have always admired films but only to a certain point. When a person reads they ascribe their own attributes and appearance to the characters. Now, you have Peter Jackson's conception creating pictures for you: pictures that are rightfully yours.
Still, there are many good books to read before you are limited by the director/actor/producer's conceptions.
This is the happiest, angriest birthday I've ever had!
I could just slap the shit out of somebody right now! And I have all y'all to thank for it...
Fuck it, I'll be right back. I gotta go out and raise hell with a wingnut-- any wingnut!

I read all the Tolkein books when I was but a wee lad. I like to think they had an influence on my life.
Irreverently lays out the case that Jesus didn't exist? And how would you do that "reverently", may I ask?

Never go into the Silmarillion, and now that I don't have a copy (where are the books of yesteryear?) I probably never will.
The nice thing about being older is I can read the entire trilogy in a week or so, rather than spend months plowing through one volume.

NTodd Smash | Homepage | 04.15.06 - 4:10 pm
FA Faramir. IIRC, in the book, Faramir was an unknown quality when Frodo came upon him. Frodo did not trust him and it was only at the end where it turned out that Faramir was actually one of the good guys. Faramir was really taking Frodo to Gondor. I thought Jackson really portrayed Farami properly.
smalfish, enemy of the state | 04.15.06 - 4:18 pm
Frodo was suspicious of Faramir, but he got over it rather quickly, as did Faramir's suspicion of Faramir. And Faramir was never tempted by the ring in the book. And in the book he was never taking them to Gondor.
So I think Fran/Peter/Phillipa messed up.
And they've admitted as much, but it was too far into the process to undo that, so they were stuck.
Man I am angry. George Bush sure is a douchebag.
No more anger.

Ooo. Way to inflame my anger! I am still fuming over the dis the Tom Bombadil got in the movie.
And what about Sam's pony?! Why shaft the poor pony? I bet Holden was semi pissed as well.

Never understood the animosity that character engendered. I always thought he was one of Tolkien's best, precisely because he appears so briefly and is so inconsequential to the tale.
He is the "giant" who walked the earth much as the Geats thought of the Romans. But his time is also so past, and his power so truly limited, that he ends forever the speculation "What if a true demi-god could show up and just end this thing?"
I was angry for about 10 minutes earlier this afternoon.
I'm not angry anymore though. Sorry. Here are my badge and gun =(
Never understood the animosity that character engendered.
It's the bad poetry does it for me...
Never go into the Silmarillion, and now that I don't have a copy (where are the books of yesteryear?) I probably never will.
Oh man, if anyone should you should read the Silmarillion. It took me two reads to really get into it, but I love it.
It really pisses me off that I typed "shum" instead of "shun." Fuck my fucking fingers and my fucking keyboard. I hate it when I ruin a fucking joke.
Never understood the animosity that character engendered.
Although to be fair, it's not like I really like any of the other characters. But the TT, I thought, was unreadable.
seriously, TT is such a bog. i'll read the silmarillion any day, but i have to pass on the trilogy now that i'm over 21.
Pffft! I've read the Silmarillion twice. Too fucking opaque to be enjoyable, though it provides plenty of good background material. I much prefer the appendices in LOTR, as well as the more natural narrative.
in the book he was never taking them to Gondor.
It was the side trip to Osgiliath that really fucking pissed me off. It was the kind of fucking horrible-assed directorial decision Rumsfeld would have made after he just got done raping a chipmunk, that fucker.
i concur with tena, rmj. you'd love it.
it's not that they take so long, it's just that reading the triology now seems like such a chore. i know how they end, and the tortured path they all take getting there is less compelling to me, esp when i can watch the movies and just enjoy the good parts.
I much prefer the appendices in LOTR, as well as the more natural narrative.

I never said I liked The Silmarillion better than LOTR, asshole. You trying to start something?
Wow, the Wa Po sure did get even with those nasty, crazy, insane, angry liberal bloggers!
"I just want to see these [expletive] swinging from their heels in the public square," reads a recent comment from someone named Dave in a discussion about the Bush administration on a Web site called Eschaton.
I've never read Tolkien and I never will.
did ntodd just "pffft" me? goddammit, that makes me really fucking angry.
vicki, pass the bong.
I heard that people who don't like Tom Bombadil are the kind of people who would piss on the Baby Jesus and blow their nose on Old Glory.
The LOTR movies were better than I hoped for but it still makes me sad, Moonbootica, that you did not read the books first.
I have always admired films but only to a certain point. When a person reads they ascribe their own attributes and appearance to the characters. Now, you have Peter Jackson's conception creating pictures for you: pictures that are rightfully yours.
Still, there are many good books to read before you are limited by the director/actor/producer's conceptions.
DWD - Challenging the world | Homepage | 04.15.06 - 4:21 pm
I think Jackson did as good as a job as could be done, considering he had only so much money and time. Are there things I wish he'd done differently? Sure. But I think he did an excellent job overall.
I treat the books and the movies as separate entitites. I reread LOTR and get something different each time.
I do sometimes watch the movies just to look at the sets. I think I'd like a libary that was based on the Golden Hall of Meduseld.
chicago dyke - My biggest problem with the movie was that it gave short shrift to the first volume - the Fellowship, I thought. That's my favorite volume and it's the one book of the 3 I can read endlessly.
It's the bad poetry does it for me...

Well, there's hardly any good poetry in LOTR.
One thing Jackson did well, in fact, especially in the third film, when he basically went for English folk songs.

strawhat - 4:06 pm
Strawhat, this truly touches a rich carillon chord with me. My sister and BIL were raised Roman Catholic, and got married in church, but really weren't churchgoers.
Then about 10 or so years ago my BIL had what turned out to be a temporary irregularity in his heartbeat. After this harrowing brush with death, the BIL got involved in a non-diocesan RC church in Philly with a reputation for being an independent, progressive, closely-knit congregation.
Pretty much ever since, my sister and their kids have most reluctantly attended services just as you describe. My sister always vents to me afterwards, in and out of the BIL's presence, about how horrible it is to be among a crowd of true believers who will not leave anyone less than thrice-hugged during the Kiss of Peace. Or allow any hymn verse to remain unsung. And so forth.
I let her vent, and occasionally toss in perfunctory questions like, "Well, why don't you just not go?" Or I'll just say, "Well, you know that crowd is really into all of that shit. They aren't experiencing the alienation and emotional claustrophobia that makes time slow to a crawl. They 'could've danced all night!'"

Anger is a term for the emotional aspect of aggression, as a basic aspect of the stress response in animals in which a perceived aggravating stimulus "provokes" a counterresponse which is likewise aggravating and threatening of violence. Very mild types of anger are typically described as "distaste," "displeasure", or "irritation," while "rage" refers to an extreme degree of anger associated with a loss of calmness or discipline (in the case of human conduct)...(more)

One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong...
Gotta dig out my copy of "Bored of the Rings"...
"Bored of the Rings" lurches drunkenly through Tolkien's narrative, scrawling graffiti on noble citadels and firing off gags with such machine-gun speed that something hits the funny bone on almost every page. A warning: "The halberd has fallen! The fewmets have hit the windmill!" A doom-laden prophecy: "Five-eleven's your height, one-ninety your weight, you cash in your chips around page eighty-eight."
Some pokes at the original are quite shrewd. The tiresomely lyrical Tom Bombadil mutates with hideous plausibility into dope freak Tim Benzedrine: "Toke-a-lid! Smoke-a-lid! Pop the mescalino!" Tortuous arguments about the disposal of the Ring are neatly condensed to: "'Alas,' explained Goodgulf." (Guess who?)
From Amazon...
I guess the WaPo never heard of angry right-wing bloggers, huh? How come the article isn't "fair and balanced" with info about them? How come fair and balanced is only needed when they're talking about how shitty the right is and they try to smear the left a bit, too? It makes me angry.

Like Beverly?
And Madison?
The chick appears in the video clip. Her parents were missionaries, which makes it all the more shocking how little she knows about the religion that she just knows is the truth.
My Chinese food has not yet been delivered and I am getting really, really, really miffed.
ms. cox should take a stroll thru some southern parts of iraq, if she wants to feel truly uncomfortable...

The first Kim I ever knew was male, too.

Anti-Americanism 'feels like racism'
Christian Cox
Sorry, but, until they enslave you, deny you a job and an education, all because you are an American...
...quit whining.
I hate to admit it, but I think I've internalized people on this site-- by which I meantersay, for instance, that I framed the following thought by thinking about Live Free or Die, and wondering if he'd weighed in on recent events. I haven't noticed him around lately, but he comes and goes.
I'm not sure what to make of this internalization thing, except to note that at this point I'm in too deep anyway.
So, herewith my LFoD-inspired thought: Isn't it forseeable that the Sunday bobbleheads will launch a tandem salvo of "Angry Dems/Libs/Leftists" talking points. And since the ringmasters are all themselves in enthusiastic collusion with the criminal regime, and are collectively as substantial a source of the "Angry" meme as any other, won't they spin like dervishes to confront Dems and stroke Repubs?
So what with the Democratic defenders of the faith do? Faced with a certain barrage of loaded questions primed for self-fulfilling conclusions, will they go all limp and gooey and try to refute the slander by repudiating the reality that there is an ocean of righteous anger building drop by drop, which threatens both parties, insofar as the tidal wave will break on all members of the political class.
Or will they say, "Hell, yes, we're angry-- and here are X reasons why:..."? Embrace the anger or repudiate/deny it? Drive into the wind or tack around it?
She has those eyes, the woman on the left, the eyes of a fanatic. Every person I've met with that stare has been a fanatic, unreachable.

I still can't get used to young girls having my grandfather's name.

really? I guess they have several clips that they circulate. All I saw was Jerry Falwell and some other incendiary types.

Takes a while to cross the Pacific.
Her parents were missionaries, which makes it all the more shocking how little she knows about the religion that she just knows is the truth.
But she has excellent dental hygiene.
More like the stare of a zombie.

To me she resembles the stereotype "airhead," easily swayed by the next silly assertion hurled at her.
Recently had to correspond w/ a lawyer named Evan and didn't know if it was a guy or a girl. He got pretty huffy about my letter addressed to Mr. or Ms. Evan X.

Thers waned to name Rosie "Grandpa," but I vetoed him.
I think to get a legit election we're gonna have organize rallys like the immigration ones. A lot of people out in the streets expressing concern about the voting process.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - A Minnesota reservist who spent the past eight months in Iraq was told he couldn't board a plane to Minneapolis because his name appeared on a watch list as a possible terrorist.

I had a number of great names lined up for my daughter, that never even got consideration.

Was 'Cousin Itt' his second choice?

They are not necessarily mutually incompatible. I knew someone who was like that, always firmly in the thralls of one political ideology or another, but if you missed a year you found out that it was some other ism now but equally firmly held.

!!
You know, that's entirely believable.
I had a number of great names lined up for my daughter, that never even got consideration.
If I'd been a girl, my moniker here would be HElise instead of NTodd.
On names: If I had been a boy I would have been called the equivalent of George...

Oddly, it was 'Tim Benzedrine.'

Well, as Daniel Schorr pointed out today, the French got their way with protests and riots.
In America, it's still an open question what immigration law we will get.
And another demonstration big enough to make Tancredo and Sensenbrenner avoid a microphone? I don't see it.

as far as the angry blogger meme goes, i say 'bring it on.' we're in the 'mock' phase of "first they ignore you, then they mock you, then they oppose you, then they capitulate." there's no such thing as bad publicity.
well, i think it's time to inspect this sunbeam from the inside of my eyelids. have a good one, blogkins. everyone except ntodd, who shall remain the sole focus of my anger for decades to come. pfft me, eh? i'll take the skin off your bottom, little boy.
there are names that really need to be designated for one sex only.
Robin - female
Chris - male
Francis - female
etc. etc.
(twirls hair around finger, pops bubble gum)
Sorry, it's not very convincing coming from you, m'dear.
Late to discussion; catching up!About "supporting the ego"/reading the related article, how is it the media can actually discuss what bushco say/think as if it's rational? Bushco is fucking psycho and the media should be calling it out.

True. Two conditions which often appear alike.

Maybe you can ask them to join you in a Fish Slapping Dance?
Francis - female
That would be Frances.
Oddly, it was 'Tim Benzedrine.'
God, I love your husband.
In a purely platonic way!
I sort of like "Frances," actually. But I may have been unduly influenced by the children's books, I admit. At least the male and female forms spell it differently.
I think the Jesus Airhead is a little TOO wholesome, if ya folla.

He'll be so disappointed.
I suspect (but am unwilling to check) that he was part of the Bored of the Rings conversation, as he reads it about once a year. We recently had to acquire a new copy.

I'm still pining for my long-lost original copy.
The cover was much funnier back then. But, of course, everything was.
I was just thinking that the reason Wolcott does not take comments is that there is no one who could write a better comment than Wolcott.

GOP senator expects seven lawmakers headed to prison after corruption probes
RAW STORY - Published: Saturday April 15, 2006
http://www.rawstory.com/news/
200...eaded_0415.html
A Republican senator told a town hall meeting on Friday that he expects at least seven lawmakers will go to jail in the wake of investigations related to convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff and others, according to an Oklahoma newspaper, RAW STORY has found.
Speaking in Wagoner, Oklahoma, Senator Tom Coburn (OK-R) said that "if you've been keeping up with things, you've got a pretty good idea" who the unnamed lawmakers might be.
Tulsa World reports that Coburn indicated that six congressman and a senator would end up being convicted on corruption charges and that "members of both parties have been involved in questionable dealings."
etc.

What, and take all the fun out of written correspondence?
No, her name was Otto
Too bad she torpedoed your bismarck.

NTodd, are you old enough to know what to do?
Then why does he keep bringing you up during Big Love?
Oh. My.

I suspect I'm older than Echidne, actually.
What written correspondence?
Rmj
pssssst. Email counts as "written".
Too bad she torpedoed your bismarck.
She did have a big pair of torpedos.
I sort of like "Frances," actually
Me, too. First female Secretary -- of Labor, natch -- was named Frances. The Dept. of Labor building is named for her.
As Plato enjoyed young boys?
hmmm.

It's a generational thing. The first thing that comes to mind for me is "Talking Mule."
I like "Frances" too. I've only known one woman with that name, and she was one of the neatest women I've known. She moved away before I got to know her as well I wanted to. I have a good feeling associated with the name.

Ok. Then I adore NYMary agapeously.

Only by young whippersnappers.
And too often, it doesn't count as "written," which is why it gets people in so much trouble.
Belles lettres were never circulated until after death. E-mails go 'round the world by the time you get home.

Agape.
GRRRRR!!!!! Now I'm angry I don't have my Greek/English lexicon handy.
The distinction between "agape" and "philos" and "eros" is greatly overstated. But I can't recall the distinctions now.
GRRRRRR!!!!!
I adore you too, Echidne!

They kinda blend into each other. Also, modern usage differes from the Greek, is more delineated.

Such a pleasing aroma! Yes, pleasing to Ba'al.
