I've been waiting to see if this new series is gonna be another "Deepspace 9" (yea!), or another "Votager" (boo!)

For some reason I just have this gut feeling that it's gonna tank harder than the XFL, but I haven't given up hope yet.

Oh yeah... Nice render MD. It's a shame that TNG never really got as good as it could've been. But at least it didn't completely suck! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif)

No, I'm a Trekker. The difference between a Trekkie and a Trekker is that a Trekkie is a fanatic. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) I like Trek, but I'm not obsessed with it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

btw, the quote is from the movie Dragonheart. (starring Dennis Quaid as Bowen and Sean Connery as Draco.)

Other than that, I'm pretty blur.

Rah blaspheme!!!!!!
ok the plot, quicky: it begins in "the hobbit" (a book for childs, but still funny to read). basically a hobbit (small human like creature, smaller than a dwarf and thinner, but very agile, calm people, farmers and so on) finds a ring that turns him invisible. It's a detail in that book, but it's the begining of Lotr. In Lotr, gandalf, a magician, finds out that this ring is the... (harg, I need translation) the unique ring, forged by Sauron, a kind of superpowerful sorcerer, once the best general of Morgoth, ancient evil god slain ages before. Sauron built lots of rings (9 for the humans, 7 for the dwarves, 2 for the elvens) with magical powers, and gave them to the mightiests lords of each species. of course it was a trick, and he had the Unique ring, one that can lead all the other rings (everything that was done thanx to those rings would fall evil, something like that). The whole Lotr story deals with how some heroes try to hide that unique ring Sauron lost (and was found by Bilbo in "the hobbit"), and their attempt to destroy this ring (coz Sauron put a lot of his power in the ring, and makes it incredibly powerful -and really dangerous too for the one who have it, appart from Sauron of course).
Well, now, go find the whole series (Bilbo and the 3 Lotr books), and read them, that's an order!!!

Post by: wEvil on September 28, 2001, 11:30:00 am: Well..borrow the book and read it.

then read the silmarillion.

Theres really too much to explain, but if i had to say one thing - its a book and universe of an amazing level of depth and seems much more beleivable than any other book i ever read.

The book can dude, I highly recommend you read it. It's the only book that's ever given me a buzz. Massive landscapes, brilliant characters and a plot so good that as soon as I finished reading the last page I turned straight to the front and started reading it again (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven rings for the Dwarven-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine rings for Mortal Men doomed to die,
And One Ring for the Dark Lord, Upon his dark Throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all. One Ring to find them
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

no, the "tales ais a set of three books, each containing sveral short stories related to middle earth, and, as the name says, some aren't finished. What you're refering about is rather the non-condensated (?) version of the silmarilion (the silarilion wasn't not written by Jrr, but by is son, from many writings JRR made about his universe. That explains some contradictory facts and so on, btw )

Vizzini: WAIT TILL I GET GOING! Where was I?
Man in Black: Australia.
Vizzini: Yes, Australia. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You're just stalling now.
Vizzini: You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've beaten my giant, which means you're exceptionally strong, so you could've put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you've also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You're trying to trick me into giving away something. It won't work.
Vizzini: IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!
Man in Black: Then make your choice.
Vizzini: I will, and I choose-- What in the world can that be?
Man in Black: What? Where? I don't see anything.
Vizzini: Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. No matter.
Man in Black: What's so funny?
Vizzini: I'll tell you in a minute. First, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.
Man in Black: You guessed wrong.
Vizzini: You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Ha ha ha--(Vizzini falls over dead)
