Actually, when it comes to LoTR I'm not much of a geek. Read it once when I was 10 and once when I was 20, plus I saw the movies once (do not plan to see them again or buy them)

**Drake Tungsten** · January 13, 2004, 02:54

Well, you've read the books as much as I have. I've watched the first two movies twice, though, once in the theater and once on the extended DVD.

**KrazyHorse** · January 13, 2004, 02:56

I read a lot, though. Twice in a lifetime is very little to have read books, for me.

I'm up to 4 or 5 times on most fiction books that I own.

**Drake Tungsten** · January 13, 2004, 02:58

I don't think I've ever read a book more than twice. Possibly Dune or The Sword of Shannara, but that's it.

**KrazyHorse** · January 13, 2004, 03:05

I also watch movies that I really like obsessively.

Saw Fight Club and Pulp Fiction >20 times each (not in theater, of course, but on DVD)
Saw Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket about 10 times
Seen a number of movies 5 times or more

**KrazyHorse** · January 13, 2004, 03:14

**MrFun** · January 13, 2004, 03:15

SHAMELESS MOVIE GEEK!!!!!!!!!

Damn, dude...

i'm surprised nobody's mentioned the horrific fact that the punisher is being played by none other than john travolta. that put me off seeing that movie. i'd rather sever appendages from my body for ninety minutes than watch another travolta flick.

**self biased** · January 13, 2004, 04:26

oh. and i've seen Pirates of the Carribean... seventeen times.

i don't have cable.

Has the king not returned to Japan yet?

No. The trip over the western seas is a long one. The king shall return to the land of the rising sun in late February.

I think it was playing here a few weeks after it came out in the US. But China often gets those 'advanced' copies.

When is Star Wars: Ep.3 coming out? I thought it was due in 2004.

My friend already picked up the Return of the King DVD in Thailand.

I have 100 DVDs. I see at least 20 movies in the theatre per year, and another 20 on video. IMDb asks me for tips and trivia.

This is incorrect. The Punisher is being played by Thomas Jane, star of such films as DEEP BLUE SEA, DREAMCATCHER, and 61* (the latter of which I thought he was quite good in). Johnny Travolta is supposedly going to play the main villain.
