Let me be the first to say I can see why he didn't get carried over into 3rd Edition.
I really wish old Tom had made it into The Fellowship though. Yet to see the extended editions so somebody tell me, is he in there?

no Tom in extended lol I can't believe they tried to pull that off putting ol Tom in the pathalon...I bet it was a copyright thing in the end...or at least to prevent a copyright enfringment.

Yeah. That's why I say I see why they didn't bring him into 3rd edition. I suppose they could have changed his name and done it, but then it isn't really him. No Tom in extended edition? I really was hoping he'd make it in. He rocks hard. That was the first thing I said when I walked out of the theatre. "Where was Tom Bombadil?" He's like the exception that proves the rule when he takes the ring and plays with it then hands it back.

yea it was s fun scene in the book with ole Tom, but it didn't really do anything to move the story anywhere it hadn't already been, and for th emovie goers that aren't hardcore Fantasy geeks like us, they would have gotten bored if the first one had been much longer. I know I for one wanted to smack all the buttholes in the theater that were yawning and griping wanting the third one to end. buncha low lifes. oh and Munroe...get your arse in a lazy boy and watch those extended versions, they will really tickle your inner geek. they are very nice special editions!

Ya! Really, im almost shocked to see an FRCer who hasnt seen all the extended versions. Ok, maybe it's true that Peter Jackson is a B horror film directer in the closet (I mean... the skulls in part three! Geeze...), but damn it all, those movies were still the absoulute best thing to ever appear on a big screen. Greatest films ever made, and the extended versions were even better.

Yeah, seeing the Old Willow attack the hobbits, then Tom Bombadil.... There's something I always forget about the barrow-wight scene. Namely, how they got out of it. Does somebody pull them out? *tries to remember*

I saw the the return of the king the day it came out 12:00 am ;D yea I have a funny story about that (it revolves around beer, imagine that) me and 2 buddies, Dave and Hainser had been skiing and snowboarding all day on a tuesday, and with skiing in Montana (and almost anywhere else) comes lots of drinking at the ski bar. well it continued into the evening and such, and we ended up at the house with a case of Highlife (no life like the Low life ). and at about 10pm I perked up out of my stupor and said "hey! the Two Towers is playing in Billings at Midnight! we should go see it!" Now Billings is an hour away, and none of us really should have been driving, but we were foolish back then (kids it's not cool, dont do it.) and went anyways. About a half hour into the trip, we ran out of beer, and got another case and kept on trucking to Billings. Well by the time we got to the city, we all 3 of us really had to pee from all those brewskis. we got to a red light at a not so abandoned intersection, and being the one sitting by the door, I hopped out and peed on the pole holding up the stop light. Meanwhile, Dave (driving) is revving the engine of his '72 Ford to "jet" off and leave me there when it turns green. Fortunatly Lula (the ford) doesn''t exactly jet anywhere, so I managed to hop in before they got away. Well, we arrive at the theater, and Dave and Hainser could care less about seeing the movie, all they want to do is take a leak, so they bolt to the bathroom. And lo and behold, the box office isnt even open, they sold out like the day before. So there I am standing around wondering what the hell we were thinking driving all the waty out ere without tickets when I hear some dude ask his girlfriend "What am I going to do with these three tickets?" Seems he bought extra for his buddies who didn't show, I bought them from him for regular price, and haughtily waved them in front of Dave and Hainser's faces and made them kiss my arse and won super cool points for scoring tickets. we then got seats on the front row because we were late getting in the theater, and couldnt see jack, and they both fell asleep. Moral of the story is.... Pee on stop lights...? no... Never listen to your friends...? no... Always do things impulsively..? no... I actually think this story has no redeeming value what so ever, but I said I'd drop pieces of idiodic wisdom now and again...so there
