Nice evening eating out with a mate and a waitress that wanted us.
Went back home and mate produced a screener-copy of "Lord Of The Rings" DVD.

A screener copy is the copy they provide to video-shops so they can watch and see if they think it's worth stocking.
Absolutely, 100% perfect quality as it's not a pirate.
Just a little text bar saying "Screener Copy only, not for sale or rently. Property of New Line Cinema" that runs across the bottom once every 30 mins or so.

It's an excellent film, especially watching it at home, sprawled on the sofa smoking.
And Samwise Gamgeee is so totally 100% in love with Frodo.
It loses nothing on the transition to smaller screen and, if anything, is better as it doesn't overwhelm you.
I've no idea when this is out to rent/buy, but I'm going to watch it again at the weekend if mate can bring it over again.

You may touch me now, for I rule.

Ah yes. Watching it at the cinema was all right in the fact that it was on a big screen and had cool surround sound, but it was a bit bloody hard to follow with people in front constantly fidgeting all the way through the film.

I guess.
Excellent film and I enjoyed it more not surrounded by hundreds of stupid people going "But they didn't destroy the ring" when it finished.

Yep, that bit at the end where he wades out to the boat.
"I love you Mr Frodo and want to roll about in my wet hobbit clothes with you"
"Sam, get a grip!"
"I can't help it sir, I want to feel your pasty face pressing down on mine"

Something like that.
It'll probably be on the 9-disc 17 hour version being released in August.

Sod you. I want it. That's it. Not you.

It's that scene at the end that amuses me. Sam actually gazes at Frodo. Probably gazes lovingly, too.
