Damn, but 17th December 2003 is a long way away.
( The Two Towers (spoiler-free) )Strange to see a film for the first time, everything new and strange,
knowing how familiar I will become with it.
Conversation on the way home:
- how
does Gollum's loincloth stay in place?
- state of the art, CGI-wise, and possible advances by the next film
- American audiences: worse than British? (Not really: screaming babies seldom encountered in my local cinema, but mobile phones are answered and mindless chatter continues the world over.
Heretics)
- No, that was
not Joaquim Phoenix. That was Orlando Bloom.
