He may be a fool but he was honoring his word to the dead army by releasing them. silly man I mean Aragon's a fool for not taking them to mordor instead of Minus T to ensure the destruction of the ring. Instead he took the dead army to minus T. to win tha battle when the war could be won in mordor. Bad mistake if your playing chess....if you can kill the king DO IT! Aug

then aragon was a fool to not go to mordor with this army to make certain the hobbits task was completed! For the army of the dead was more powerful than anything. Certainly if a human king can kill sauron with the ring...then the dead army can too. Only this time sauron does not yet have the ring. So again....with or without the ring...Sauron loses. So whats so important about the ring except it will get rid of a loser bad guy? If he gets the ring I assume he'll kick some !@#@ like last time????? of course he will only this time he'll get beat by a girl! Aug

Cause with or without the ring He gets beat down like a little girl. So why does he want it so bad. EXCEPT to protect his life. But thats not what is expressed.....at least thats not what I understood from the first movie. I understood...if he gets it he becomes all powerful and nothing can stop him...so he cannot have the ring....it must be destoyed. So if he does not get the ring he wins. So why find the ring...simply monitor every foot in mordor and the game is over. all of this smack doesnt help my CS playing at all, Dangit! if only I was as good at CS than i am at trash talk hmmmm

While I'm sure to tinkle people off with this but I cannot help myself but to say what is true. The movie was no more than a C. While better than the first it was not as good as the second. My thoughts of the UNimportance of the ring rang true. The bad guy who got his finger cut off from the king years ago proved once again to be about as tough as an ewok when he got worked, not by a king, not by a ranger, but by a girl and a hobbit. how lame was that! TOLD YOU PLAYYYA. Let me guess....another lucky stroke of the sword Again I'll say it...give up the ring and sauron will still get beat down like a little girl. The Dead army was like watching the haunted mansion. To see the action just die out like that was like watching a episode of knight rider. That was such a lame way to win the war. Again my thoughts about this story is not very high. In the first place why in trarnation didn't they forge the sword, give it to aragon, go to the cave, tell the dead army follow me and attack mordor ? hmmmmm. That was soooo stupid when the elve leader told aragon about it and said it will be the most powerful army in all of earth. it's like HOW THE @#$@#$ COULD YOU FORGET THAT IN THE FIRST MOVIE!!!!!! If there was a sequel I'm sure there would only be a few hundred men but then gandalf would hand aragon a nuclear bomb and say..."oh yea here take this into mordor in a backpack and pull the string." Theres never a sense of urgency that the good guys will lose. I blame your wonderful peter jackson for this. You always know whats going to happen (without reading the books); good guys are rescued by another army. Can't they change the story to make it somewhat more powerful. There should have been a better way to win the war or battle. I say deviate from the book if the book is lame at that point. It's just WAY too predictable. The good part was that the war was WAY better than helms deep (sorry scene in 2). I enjoyed the action which was alot of fun. I don't think it was quite there with the crane scene in T3 but it was tops! Still yet I never felt like desperation was near. I think thats always critical to a action movie. Make the viewers feel like all is lost then give them somthing they don't expect. Sadly, we all know whats going to happen all the time, cause they announce it in advance. At least conceal it in mystery. My favorite character (golum) died!!!! I was ok with it. This guy is only rivaled by jurassic park 1 on its graphical inovation. AWSOME. Unfortunatley his part is only 1/3 the time when it should have been 1/2 the movie. The end was WAYYYY TOO LONG! it's like 10 endings. They're all jumping on the bed. Is the movie over? NOT! All the people bow to the hobbits....Is the movie over? NOT! WHAT THE? Just end the flippin movie already. BADLY DONE! I can't see anything resolved that wasn't already resolved. Sam got married......cool everyone lives happily ever after.....cool But my main dissapointment was the build up in the first movie that the ring was all that important. Again mordor was about to win and he didn't have the ring. When they showed (the good guys) at the gates of mordor surrounded I thought....WHAT, why didn't sauron send them out! He had the power to win w/o the ring. Much like the first war... he had the ring and still got beat so it goes again....no matter what he gets beat. I totally enjoyed matrix series more (although I too disliked revolutions resolutions). I am but one little hobbit like person who stands amist you evil movie critics who love any movie that uses a CPU to generate its effects. Sorry ORCS this movies a loser no matter how many people love it. So for anyone who fell asleep which I was tempted to do....SIGNS OF A POOR MOVIE dont feel bad. Judge with your mind and truth....not with your wishful thinking. Auggybendoggy P.S. dont get offended cause i'm shooting it down. I shot down the first movie also. I shot down Revolutions and Star wars ep 1 and 2. all of these are movies that should have been FAR better than they are.

flat out hate it! BORING!!!! Give me king. Give me barker... Please no Tom or Huck. Aug

ive got to see this office space. Who's in it? Don't tell me about it just tell me who stars in it. Anyone see Spinal tap or best in show? Those two comedies are cult classics

ohh headshot! that hurt! Aug

playaa, I can agree. I know the animation well. GREAT MOVIE! a little on the psychadelic side but awsome story. I'd love to read the book. How good could that movie be re-animated. I'd pay to see it definetley. Aug

Oh como one playaa.... First LOTR now your wrong about The gods must be crazy. Dude those movies are some of the funniest movies made to date. The bushmen RULE!!!! I remember the first 40 min of the 1st one was a bit boring but dude keep watching and watch it with friends, youll laugh soooooo hard. Gotta say these are 2 of my fav all times comedies. Oh yea what about vacation when they tie the dead grandma up to the roof of the station wagon with some bunjee cords....hahahahahah HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THATS FUNNY! Aug

its true rev, i was robbed of 3 great movies from star wars and now I'm bitter! DANGIT! Aug

TOTALLY AGREE about jar jar. he sucks! Theres no competition. Lucas can't direct, there just no two ways about it. Too bad for the Star Wars legacy. If only! That dang fool!!!!! Ok back to the fav movies. Dude, how bout The gods must be crazy 1 and 2? Auggy

and what about peradactyls. Where did they go? Auggy

cause i was told the story was one of the greatest (from those who read the books). So I gave the first one a chance. The 2nd one I enjoyed the first time alot ONLY because of golum. That dude rocks. Excellect work on the character. but if he wasnt in the movie I'd say its another mortal kombat with much better acting. Aug

still disagree, rev if you pay attention you will see there is a difference. You have to go a little deeper into the logics. Suddenly a light will appear and you'll say OH DUDE i get it now. its simple math again. Even playaa is following. So do the simple math and then give me your thoughts like playaa. Cause honselty its hard to think of the first battle being won on a lucky swing of a sword. If it just took a little luck to kill this dude then hes a bigger whimp then he is a threat. One more time for rev. (the simplified version) first argument a) sauron gets ring sauron fight with ring and gets beat down like a red headed step child conclusion - ring didnt do a thing for him now in the present time of LOTR sauron want ring again for a second shot his armys cannot win alone - why? obviously they are matched by the good guys meaning the fight is even sauron gets ring (unlike the first time when he had the ring) 50 men cant jump him and kill him? Why? This is the question I'm looking for. Is he like magical? If so why'd he go swinging his sword the first time? I say if he swings a sword again hes gonna get beat down again. Also why doesnt Gandalf just call that big mug hawk to eat the dude alive. That bird was huge. Again this has alot to do with my hating excalibur, conan, zeena, beastmaster and movies like that. I just can't stand fantasy. But that doesnt mean the movies are bad (in my opinion) it just seems to be a weak story concerning the power of the bad guy. Auggy

so what about 7 literal days but not consecutive. Scriptures do not say consecutive days. Could there be 100,000,000 years between each literal creation day? I think some cat named hugh ross believes that. The adam naval theory is the big question for believers to question the age of the earth. Did God create adam with a belly button since he had no imbelicul cord (sorry if i mispelled)? Did God create trees with rings in the trunks? Did God create stars 100,000,000,000 light years from earth with their light already shining upon the earth? Also I know some people believe that the fallen angels wiped out life on earth becuase of Genesis' translation... "and the earth was (can also be translated became) formless and void" meaning some people think there was form and life on it prior to the 7 days of creation...notice how the devil is already on earth (the snake) in genesis in the garden of eden? Any thoughts anyone Auggy

hahahahah!!!! Pat Sayjack is God. Is that what your arguing? hahahahahhahaha My point is not so much an xfile its the point you werent there and you dont know anything is true except that which you handle. You have to have faith (some faith) to believe people. Thats my point. I have faith in people the the hebrew/greek writing were passed down and now tell us about God. I believe these writings are not myths written by men. They are written different from myths and unlike mormonism who don't have a shred of evidence we have the acient texts. Concerning Dino's. I love em. I believe they existed but I also believe the earth is much older than 10,000 years. I'm not a Genesis literalist. I tend to think Gensis my perhaps be written sort of like the last book (revelation) with lots of symbolism. So saying the earth is 100,000,000,000 years old doesn't bother me. Late, Aug

Dweez, right on! A man to respect! Thats how I am now. Thats why I am questioning so many things. Yes I have no problems with what you express although we do disagree on some details. I guess my thoughts are concerning the thief is the same as circumcision. The man got circumcised. He got Baptized. He entered communion. We just are blind to it. Alot of people (catholic, mormon) seem to see a great importance in the actual act and product. I am going in a total opposite direction. I think they are DEAD wrong. It's not eating baked dough and squeezed fermented grapes that is communion. It is the other part. let me break it down 1) do this 2) remember me People make part 1 (ceremony) as a automatic to number 2 I think to commit number 2 daily is what he asks. This is my point of communion. sort of like Kieth Green in "to obey is better than sacrifice...I want more than sundays and wednsday nights...cause if you cant come to me every day then don't bother coming at all." So the point blank question is this is Jesus command saying: 1) do this ceremony so that you will remember me now and then to keep the course. or 2) keep all that I've taught you with you and in your heart daily, remember what I'm doing for you and teach it to others. we treat it as 1 but I'm reading between the lines. I think its 2. If a man does live a godly life he is commiting this and if he never commits to the ceremony, it means nothing to God, his loving God and others is what God accepts as his "ceremonial" communion. The same thing with Rahab how do you read the commandment 1) thou shalt not bear false wittness against thy neighbor or 2) Don't practice deceit. Love one another and Love God with all your heart. Tell the truth that LOVE MAY TRIUMPH. Rahab I think practiced no. 2 and thus she obeyed the 10 commandments. She followed the most excellent way of love rather than law. I think we do the same with baptism, communion and many other things. Kieth green had a teaching tape called Devotion or devotions. I think I'm on to what he talked about. It's been years since I've heard it but I'd like to go over it since I've matured some Auggy

playya, I'm not sure what you mean strategy/war games. You make it sound like one or the other. My guess is you mean strategic war games. It depends. If it is clever I do. I no you keep repeating yourself about sauron but it doesnt rest well for a good story for me. I see Legolas shoot an arrow in a orcs eye while riding a shield down some stairs and I think if elves can shoot like that then shoot all his fingers off. Heak, shoot his arm off. It just seems weak to say he needs the ring but when he got it he got his @#$@#$ kicked. I think the ring is not all that. I think they're scared of their own imaginations. Again I repeat myself. If his army is close to evenly matched that the good guys are staying alive (bee gees style) then his army is not all that strong. If his army is not that strong then I expect him to be just like the last time (a whimp). I would just laugh if in the last movie sauron gets the ring and gets beat a second time. That would just be hilarious. Nevertheless Tolkein must have thought this stuff all out. I HOPE. Now concerning your take on star wars. totally agree, Lucas botched it up by being to prideful about directing them. LET SOMEONE ELSE DO IT! I get the same feeling when luke and vader are fighting. Sometimes when I'm at the movies they show this preview clip of all these old classics and for about 2 seconds they show Luke and Vader going at it (return of the Jedi) and I like you get this cool feeling of "ohhh man those were the good ol days". I love when luke first meets Yoda, dude yoda is sooo funny. But I love the philosophies Lucas lays down in his story. Like when Yoda is on Lukes back and luke asks..."is the dark side stronger?" Yoda replies "no!". Through out the series you get this feeling that the dark side is stronger but that statement gives you hope for luke. Similar to real life. Sometimes we get overwhelmed when we see how aggressive sin is but God assures us it is not stronger. I dig that. Auggy

dweez i totally am coming from that. I do feel like I'm stepping a bit further in saying. You can please Christ w/o doing the ceremonys becuase its the intent of baptism and communions that counts. in other words you are doing them but not in the legalistic letter of details. It's much like not bearing false wittness. Rahab lied, yet she is commended for her faith in Hebrews. Her faith produced a lie. But it was good. Did she obey the law or break it. I say she obeyed. I don't think she broke it at all. So if a man is remembering christs teachins and what he did for us daily, then that man is in a constant communion and therfore does not need to do the ceremony because he realized the ceremony is trying to make him do what he already does. He already communes. If a man totally seeks God and loves others as himself then he already is baptized. The water means nothing, the symbol means nothing. What counts is God in his heart. So if he does not get baptized in water is he less of a christian? Is he missing out? I don't think so.... I think he like the thief is baptized but people think its being dunked in h20 that makes them baptized. Aug

playya, If you don't like me picking the movies DONT READ IT MAN. The crying in bed is a comment trying to express WHAT THE HEAK DO YOU CARE IF I HATE THESE MOVIES OR LOVE EM. Again get over it if someone says "they suck" its all subjective bro. I certainly don't think your a child but don't let others bring you down man. Stiffen up and remember "auggybendoggy" is no one. Phyzer23 is a loser. (ooops sorry phyz). So no hard feelings. We all have these problems of hearing opinions and getting offeneded just rem i suck at CS. I KNOW FOR A FACT P. JACKSON IS MORE OF A DIRECTOR THAN I EVER COULD BE. I've never read the books so it's hard for me to guage if he's done a good job telling. now concerning the answer you gave. Again Gandalf does not (in the movies) seem to express if we rid of the ring we still lose. He expressed that there hope is in the 2 hobbits destroying the ring. This hope is that if the ring is destroyed sauron will not become SO POWERFUL. that they (gandalf) don't stand a chance. But if the ring is destroyed they stand a chance? The idea I understand is that the ring is the main power. But if infact the orcs are a match for the elves then the ring is not the main power. All sauron would have to do is build a bit of a bigger army and then wipe em out (no ring needed). Certainly the Idea expressed in the movie is THE RING IS NEEDED. I never get the sense "he doesnt need the ring". I understood (humbly speaking that I may have missed the punch line) he needs the ring to become manifest and become all powerful. Much like anyone who wears it long enough they would be possesed by sauron. So when you say he doesnt need the ring to kick butt then I say he's a fool for not kicking butt before he gets the ring. If you say he needs the ring to give him the edge over the evenly matched armys then I say its just as before. The humans will cut his finger off and he'll get dusted just like before. Sorry playya it seems a bit screwy.

Dweez, Thats what I've been taught since my childhood. But now that I'm questioning the law in our lives I'm also wondering about NT laws or commandments. What is baptism anyhow? When I read it seems to be some sort of symbol God issued to show us things. For example the flood was a sort of baptism. Now dunking in water is a form of baptism. But is it dunking in water (the details) that matter. If the details don't matter than does it matter at all? Is it a sin not to get baptized? I've been raised in the way of thinking of NO. however we express to people its a public pronounciation of our faith leaving no option for the person. I see the only alternative as "deny your faith" if you choose not to get baptized. So people get baptized. My feelings are its not these commandments that we are to obey. but rather what the commandments are trying to point us to. Otherwise the law does make or break us. Was the Thief on the cross baptized? My upbringing has taught me "no" but now I believe he was. Not in the ceremonial sense of it but I feel God does not care about that just the same as with circumcision. Does God care that a man is circumcised outwardly? Auggy

I dont think h20 does anything like marking us. I think theres something more to all this. I havent time to express my ideas so I'll do it tomorrow. auggy

thats debated by many christians. Most fundamentalists believe man was last. Earth, plants and then man and animals. But there are some who think the 7 days are literal 24 hrs days but seperated by thousands to millions of years. My point though is not whether you do believe in God or not. My point is If mormons believe in the bible than I should be able to judge based on the same book. You bring in the "believe in creationism" question regarding faith. Mormons believe in the bible...so do I, so its not at all the same. I can in turn say to you you cannot prove those dinosaur and ancient human bones are not planted by game show hosts around the world who are conspiring to disprove the bible. Sounds ridiculous right? But you still cant prove it. MORMONS believe the bible. So thats my point. Auggy sadamm no more!

Watch, Understood. Indeed there is faith involved which superceeds science in our thinking. But in the realm of religion where both deem to have beliefs in a book they should be able to address everything about the book. You speak of differences of science and spirit. It's apples and oranges. Mormons are on the same playing field concerning believing therfore it can be debated. I cannot debate with you the issue of faith or character of God if you don't believe there is a God. But if you claim to believe in the bible then we can debate about the bible. Concerening facts of evolution I know many other christians (including myself) who dont know the facts are accurate. For example many claim lucy is stable. I don't know where lucy came from...can you prove to me that lucy was not manufactured from Joe Shmo in his garage to disprove the bible. You yourself have to have some faith in the what information is passed on to you. My point is that I don't buy every X-file that is passed on to us. I do believe that this universe is WAY to quantized and complex for it to have just snapped into existence. So I obviously believe there is a creator to this design. A design without a designer? hmmmm? Still yet your point is valid but really does not apply here since mormons claim to believe the NT and the OT. It's part of their faith. So we can discuss this with them. Islamic, Buddhist and likes would not apply here since they don't claim the bible as being the word of God. So how can I claim them ignorant of biblical doctrines....I can't, they dont claim to know or believe it. Hope this helps, Auggy P.S. Whats up man, I havent heard from you for a while. I've been playing matrix on my PC so I've not played CS for a few weeks. Late,

knock I understand your defensivness. I don't mean to make them sound stupid. I'm just trying to emphasize that if people believe they will fly to a comet by killing themselves with bags full of insecticide because some cat (guy) told them they would and they don't ask "are you sure...how do you know?" then they are ignorant of truth. Ignorant obviously means to ignore. If I ignore the speed limit for children crossing the street from 2:00-4:00 pm and I race down the street at 100 mph during that time. I am ignorant for not paying attention to street signs. I am informed from the DMV that signs along the roads will guide me to drive safely. They cannot be ignored. If one claims to read a book of a religion and ignores the book he claims to read he too is ignorant. Like cannibal, even he is not a believer yet finds mormonism to be absurd. I follow suit. Unless hypocracy is a positive character trait then one must believe in truth. I know no one who practices hypocracy and states it. What I mean is there are no religions I know of that preach "were hypocrites, thats what our religion is about. We say one thing and do another". I'm simply saying that since we all claim to be true, should we not be reasonable and real with Gods word. Even mormons believe the OT is Gods word. They claim the NT is Gods word. I am a protestand (baptist) and I think our church, calvary chapels, pentecostal, methodist and many more have many problems with doctrine. But they admit it and are willing to discuss issues upon these matters. Mormons are not willing to discuss these issues. From my experience (I attended a mormon church for 3 months to learn from them) they are ignorant of facts of scripture. For example they ignore Genesis when the ONE GOD says "let us make man in our image". No response. Yet they firmly deny the doctrine of the trinity. I don't expect them to embrace it but at least question the NON TRINITY views by asking a bishop "why does God say this". So again sorry to offend. I like mormon people I've had friends years ago who were mormons but that does not mean I can sit back and say all is well cause they are my freinds. I must be true to truth. I'm not saying I know all truth but if something blatant is there I will question it and if it does not follow logic I toss it out. Sincerely, Auggybendoggy
