Lord of the Rings and Toy Story - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I found this on <A HREF="http://www.imdb.com" TARGET=_blank>www.imdb.com</A> . It's about the FotR movie. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Have you ever seen Toy Story? Well, you know the part near the end, where all the rest of the Toy's are in the truck and they finally realize that Woody was telling the truth about Buzz being with him? Rex, the neurotic dinosaur, is devastated and says, "Oh no, now I have guilt". So what do you suppose happens when I'm watching FOTR for only the second or third time and my smart-alec daughter happens to be there? I'll tell you. The fellowship is just coming out of the mountain, with the full belief that Gandalf is dead. Everything is slow motion. Dialogue is silenced. Music is perfect. Then Legolas gets this look on his face and my daughter (in perfect Rex voice, of course) blurts out: "Oh no, now I have grief". I can never see that scene again and retain the same sense of feeling that I had on the first viewing. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>LOL! The poor guy.

That's delightful. Thanks.You gotta love kids.H.C.

Uh-oh. Actually, she got it wrong. Why would Legolas feel guilt? She should have said it when the camera was on Pippin. Honestly, that little smart-alec ain't so smart.

Oh, well that should teach me to actually read the words I'm looking at. I just know that line so well I...oh that's scary.
