New Lord of the Rings Trailer

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the get-your-lust-on dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Apple is hosting the new trailer for Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Of course, the trailer is in quicktime. Looks pretty darn good, in my opinion." I just finished the 4th disc on FotR, and am ready for TTT to be out now!

    well I guess when they're being horrible and evil by taking away your rights, you hate them, but now you love them?

    Do you people have any principles at all? If you think they're robbing your liberties and fair use rights why continue to hand your money to them? They will use it to rape you even more.

    fucking hypocrites.

  4. interest in LOTR == sign of a sick mind by mito · · Score: -1, Troll

    Man, as someone who hid from reality for too long I've just got to say it: these fantasy worlds, LOTR, Star Trek, SW, etc. are for loosers. They are constrained tautologies designed to provide you with a cosy and unchallenging little universe where you can retreat from real life.

    Wake up! and smell reality. It's much more fascinating and complex un unpredictable than any of these sick fantasy worlds.

    Start with "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" by Edward Gibbon to get a taste of how real human history itself is so more enriching and interesting to begin with.

      3 out of 10 on the Troll Scale. Good choice in targeting and nice reference at the end to portray yourself as being well-read. But everything else was subpar. A troll more suited for the fuckedcompany forums than /. Better luck next time.

      Oh come on, please moderate this obvious troll down...

      Ok, I'll spend a minute of my unreal life and sick mind to answer it:

      Don't you think that's why people like to watch them?

  5. TTT Scandal by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    I just found out the fucking Canadian govt. is banning the new movie because of the severe retardation that is present in the Canadian populace.

    If the Canadian govt. knows it's citizens are complete retards, then the US as police of the world show take over Canada for the benefit of all mankind. We can't let these retarded Canucks continue to live unmonitored.

    Fucking Canucks!

  6. About Quicktime by trezor · · Score: -1, Troll

    Quicktime is as we all know the most crappy videoformat ever. It compresses bad, regardless of computer and hardware, it still on my 2GHz Win2k box refuses to play smooth fullscreen.

    It's bloated, and has a ugly player which you can't replace. Nobody likes Quicktime, except Mac-users it seems.

    I really, really wished studios would stop usaing this foul format, as I really dont even bother watching trailers in Quicktime. Not even Lord of the rings - Two towers....

    We saw this on CNN and FOX last year. A bunch of orcs and elves hijacked two planes and crashed them in the two towers.
