The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and Tolkien - The One Ring

by **Thor 'n' Oakenshield** » Fri Mar 08, 2019 10:58 am

Went to see Captain Marvel last night, earliest showing, and LOVED it. Very good movie - definitely recommend it. Between that and the news that Amazon's LOTR show will be set in the Second Age, I had a very good day yesterday.

But now, alas, it is freezing again.

Glad you enjoyed the movie, Thor. The trailers look pretty good.

It is warming up here!!!!!!!!!!!!

Temps in the 40s F today. 50s F tomorrow!!!!

Thor, glad you enjoyed it. I'm going today.

The weather goofs (as Scribbles calls them) tell me it will be 31C here today. Perfect for hiding in a cinema while autumn figures out when it wants to arrive. Seriously, I just want cooler weather.

Which is kind of dumb of me as I am heading out to the Big Rock in October where it will be mid 30s! The things I do for photos.

But actually, it is beginning to warm up here too - I could hardly believe it when I woke up to find that the snow was almost all melted.

Thor, Captain Marvel was pretty good, up there with Cap and Iron Man's origin stories. It was quite funny too, especially things with the cat. Looking forward to End Game!! Thankfully we have a public holiday the day after it opens here so I don't need to take a day off to watch it!

Glad you liked it! I can't wait for Endgame tickets to go on sale (I think April 2nd) because I know that movie is going to be sold out in a few minutes.

Btw, anyone here seen the new Aladdin trailer? It looks so good!

by **SimplySable** » Wed Mar 13, 2019 12:26 pm

Didn't see the trailer for Aladdin but saw a commercial for it.
Saw the trailer for the Tolkien movie and it looks great.
So much good watching in store!!

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Wed Mar 13, 2019 2:11 pm

Yea, I've been keeping tabs on the Tolkien movie. Looks promising.

As for a place to stay next.... Bermuda!!!

Mmmm, pie! Sounds good!

It's officially warm here - for the first time in months I've been able to go out without a coat.

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Fri Mar 15, 2019 3:59 pm

Temps hit the mid 70's F here today. :shock:

by **Ladykat** » Fri Mar 15, 2019 5:23 pm

It's been warm here. Actually hit 70 degrees F yesterday.

Wish it would stay that way, but nooooooo..........

Gonna drop back down to the high 30's low 40's and snow showers.

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sat Mar 16, 2019 5:18 pm

Yea. Today was 30 degrees colder and windy and I saw snow flurries.

by **Thor 'n' Oakenshield** » Sun Mar 17, 2019 1:31 pm

It's definitely warming up around here. The bugs are coming back...

by **notlistening** » Tue Mar 19, 2019 3:22 pm

I haven't seen the Aladdin trailer yet but heard Will Smith is the genie.

Tolkien trailer is excellent. Look forward to that.

We have a public holiday on the 25th April so good time to see Endgame.

Sounds good! - I can't wait to see that movie.

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Thu Mar 21, 2019 3:43 am

Ok. It's officially Spring. NO MORE WINTER!!!!!!

I'll be spending the rest of the day here...

Ok, it seems all I had to do wqs get on Chrome to reply on my Surface.
'
Hi,all!! hihi:
Hope all are doing well and are out of the cold.
The last few days have been Summer like up here.
Totally made me forget all about February and its snow.

Hopefully my Babyman can get ny desk top going so i canc change my sig pic.

My Ichiro retired today.
I sorta thought he would, but I'm going to miss him a lot.

Latrr

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Thu Mar 21, 2019 3:49 pm

I guess it turned out to be something simple, Calma. ????

It was like summer here until it rained all day today. But at least it wasn't snow.

by **Thor 'n' Oakenshield** » Fri Mar 22, 2019 8:55 am

Wet and gloomy weather around here. But, like Tookish said, at least it isn't snow.

Other than that, just the usual news: my sister is due to have her baby any day now - though she won't tell us when, because she's a very private person and doesn't want phone calls and congratulatory texts and emails, and gifts being sent to the hospital, etc. I and a few of my family members believe she's actually already had the baby and is just keeping it secret until she's ready to talk to people again. She lives in England, which makes it even more difficult to find out.

Speaking of birthdays....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CAPTAIN KIRK!!!!!

(a day late)

Thor, we had hail yesterday. Hail! sheesh.
Your sister probably doesn't want to be overwhelmed with stuff when the baby arrives. Can't say I blame her.

Definitely - our family can be very overwhelming!

Happy belated birthday to William Shatner!

Hullo!!!

The recent losses of Prim and CR made me want to come in and say hello while I still can. Feeling nostalgic and missing my friends. But I had no idea where to start so here I am. HELLO TVM CREW!!!! :rose:

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 3:12 am

HI, Luthy.

hmmmm.... we need a new beach house.

*goes off to find one*

by **notlistening** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 3:32 am

I wish I could say Goodbye Summer but the dang thing keeps clinging on like a limpet!!!!!

Hello! It's a pleasure to finally meet you!

No news about the baby yet. My half-sister met a man on Instagram whom she's apparently decided she's in love with, and now she wants to fly to California to go find him...and this idea is being encouraged by my aunt, who read the Tarot cards and saw a "beautiful future" for the two of them, happily married and with many children...so now my half-sister is begging her dad to pay for a flight (even though she herself is crazy wealthy) to LA, so she can go find this man, whom she's literally never met...

Did I mention that my family is a little crazy?

by **Tookish_Traveler** » Mon Mar 25, 2019 2:44 am

Crazy sounds like the right word.

Happy Monday to all.

I need to finish my coffee...

The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and Tolkien - The One Ring

TVM -- holiday movies and other (fun) stuff and CARDS!
