Hi Elaine and Rich,
I noticed a decline in the posts that I find most interesting. I think you can chalk it up to it being the holiday season, hopefully. I do miss all the interesting posts!
I am your typical lurker, but I do enjoy reading the stuff here. I tend not to post very often, on any board, because I would rather people have the illusion that I have at least a smidgen of intelligance (oops... looking up spelling...)intelligence, instead of opening my mouth and removing all doubt.
I do have to admit, I did not find this site because I am(was) a huge fan of the movie. I found it looking for Native American art (ie ES masks). But ya know what? I have probably watched LOTM 2 dozen times since I first came here. You have converted me, all of you. Every time someone adds a new (or forgotten) piece of trivia about the movie, I have to get it out and watch it... again... ;-) In fact, I don't even file it on the bookshelf along with my other videos (extensive collection). I keep it out on top of the VCR. I yell at my son when he takes it upstairs with him and forgets to bring it back down. (Things tend to get lost in his room, the "pit"). So all of you who post interesting facts about the movie, or even stuff about the "period", I thank you. I have learned a lot since I have started coming here. Lets keep it going!
Anyway, what were we talking about...? ;-)
A.
p.s. Don't worry too much about the negative stuff. Don't take it to heart, for they (the meanies saying bad stuff) are few, and you (Elaine & Rich), are loved and appreciated by many!
