valar. i just spent like, 8 hours of my life sittin' in front of my tv watchin' my extended edition dvd and cast commentary. and. til noo. i'm still thinking with a scottish accent. like. all my thoughts in my head are just, billy's voice. or dom's. you know? like. a squip. but instead of keanu reeves i've got like, billy boyd. how weird is that. and even noo. all this. it's all in an accent. i cain't do the phoenetics properly (pygmalion!) but i'm telling you. 2 hours later ah ken still hear billy's voice. inside my head! gahhh.

but oh it was so funny!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean. 8 hours straight on a sofa is horribly butt-numbing but it was a GOOD butt-numbing session! but seriously. i think i have a bad case of ff withdrawal. i saw theoden talking to eowyn and i was like, "they're gonna kiss." then i see that they don't and i'm vaguely disappointed. then i realise that they're RELATED and it's INCEST but it doesn't bother me too much. hm. then i see eowyn and aragorn and i go "KISS" but it doesn't happen and again i'm not too bothered. and i see legolas and aragorn and i go, "oh they're gonna kiss. yeah." and i'm a little disappointed that they don't but i'm not bothered at all by the fact that i actually expected a kiss. not dreamed it. expected it. then i saw eowyn and faramir and i was "KISS" but they didn't which REALLY was sad. apparently they were supposed to have sex in a bathtub (according to "daisy" wenham) but he and miranda were laughing too much to pull it off so... billy and dom were the funny ones. frodo and sam were doing this whole "serious actor" thing and going all analytical. dom did a really high-pitched imitation of arwen and he said he liked her voice and just at that moment, liv came in and started talking and they both sounded exactly the same! apparently for the killing of the mumakil orli went and practiced climbing animals for months. (according to dom and billy anyway. who were probably joking. i hope.) "yeah in his down time we'd go surfing and he'd be climbing ponies and cows and donkeys and mules." "and that came after the gerbils and the hamsters and the rats." "oh yeah. he was bitten by one of them. right in the - " "haha, yeah. couldn't work for weeks after that." and they're so DRY in that. you know? they don't sound like they're telling a joke. (don't tell me to throw water on it kel.) and. oh geez. when sam was kissing rosie.

SEAN: "yeah it would have been great 'cept for when billy and viggo were off camera kissing each other, as a motivation for us (him and rosie) to look at."
BILLY: "yeah we were just, you know, applauding for them and then viggo grabbed me and kissed me, hard, open-mouthed, on the lips."
[moment of silence]
FRODO: "oh and here i have this dialogue..."
etc.

and when they were watching the naked-frodo-all-tied-up scene elijah mentioned that he had asked where the light came from. i mean, they were in mordor, where it's like, eternal night and that tiny little lamp thing ain't much good so why is it so darn bright? he asked the guy in charge of lighting "where's the light come from?" and he said, "same place as the music." which. when you think about it. it's like, heyy, music's TECHNICALLY not there i mean,
"MR. FRODO!"
"I'M HERE, SAM."
"WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU, IT'S THIS DRAMATIC SOUNDTRACK PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND LEMME GO SHUT IT OFF." *moves to radio sitting in the corner of the tower room full of dead orcs in the middle of mordor. turns it off*
so means the lighting's technically not there either but if it's not there then...

ah but bill and dom are the best. when saruman was holding the palantir out dom said, as saruman, "behold, the bowling ball! i won the *insert name of some place* state championships you cannot beat me in bowling!" and pippin described how he accidentally picked up horse shit instead of the palantir out of the water and he was so into it he just handed it to gandalf without realising. and they talked about how frodo can just, swtch off. they then pretended to flick a switch and one of them made a slight snoring sound. "he's like c3po you know, you just turn him off." and when legolas was sliding down the mumakil's trunk after killing it (like evan and his skate boarding) i think it was dom, he said, "oh look look here he has that LOOK. that sexy look when he;s just spotted a girl he likes OH LOOK THERE" as orlando tilts his head to one side. "AHHHhhhh. that one." dom says he's sad that he can't do that sexy crying.

DOM: "i'm not able to do that kind of sexy crying, where your face doesn't move and the tears run down your face."

he says when he cries his whole face just gravitates towards his nose you know? like, scrunched up. and it DOES. i never noticed it but after he pointed it out i just couldn't stop laughing. and during the drinking game they said gimli could easily be cheating cos he could just let all that beer run down his beard and no one could be able to tell. and john rhys-davies says that people ask all the time about dwarves farting. and he said that, well, actually, dwarves don't fart. elves do, though, all the time. and he gives an incredibly rude demo where he snores and instead of breathing out, farts. mannnn. and pip said that they were gonna go back and see him with the palantir now but instead they showed legolas with his hood and pip said, "oh but we gotta wait for legolas to finish his red riding hood impersonation first." wahahahhahahahaa.

and you know what. four hours of staring at viggo's permanently wet/tight-fitting shirt has led me to confess that despite his filth, he's pretty hot. miranda otto agrees.
