Get the extended versions. They are 4 hours each. The regular films are 3 hours each. Huge commitment, but well-worth it.
In the second and third films, Theoden rocks. ;-)
Theoden, good idea, when the play is over next week it may be a little of a letdown & I'll plan to watch the movies to cheer us all up! We have the extended versions also, and they are great!
Well guessing from my name....I get goosebumps when I see the Ride of the Rohirrim.
Because, L211959, I am much like Theoden, awakening after long sleep to realize my kingdom is assaulted and almost run over.
When I saw ROTK in the movies with a friend, when Gandalf told Pippin about what lies after death, and the shores of the undying lands, "the far green country", my friend began to weep.
So nice to hear from you again Theo after your looong sabatical. A few comments on your comments:

Thanks for putting it this way.. Now I'm REALLY upset!!!!!

From what info I have gathered, I'm guessing it has to do with the quantity and quality of sex. I don't think she wants my D but knows it is a necessary evil in order to get the man who she wants to be a father to HER children. Other than that, she is snowing him on what a righteous and "good" person she is.. BARF!!!!

I think I'm ok for now. Thanks for the offer, though...
In fact, OW may know, or hear about how your H is regretful sometimes and missing you. She may have done this hair thing just to make you angry so she can say to your husband, "See what a bad temper she has!!! Why on earth are you missing this woman?"
Hmmm... good point ROOT. I do know that ow is VERY insecure about her place w/stbxh and is trying to push everything along more quickly - H moving in, integrating families, etc... Not to sound paranoid or anything but I honestly believe that she does a lot of this stuff to "one up" me.
I have to say that I'm pretty nice to stbxh. The worst thing I do is ignore him when he calls. Sometimes, I just don't have the strength to even listen to his voice.
You will all be happy to know that I got D4's hair evened out and she looks cute as a bugs ear! While at the salon, she got her first pedicure. She thought she was such a princess!
