The Lord of the Rings is an awesome movie series. The books aren't all that bad either, but the movies... they're quite possibly my favourite movies of all time. And this has got me thinking... what would I do if the movies were remade? This is what I would do...
1. Upon hearing the news, I would fly into a rage, and then be secretly exited.
2. I would call every last one of my friends and tell them the news. We would then have many long, deep conversations as to what we thought the movie would be like.
3. I'd audition for a role. Any role at all. Frankly, I'd be thrilled if they let me be one of 1000 orcs in a shot.
4. Assuming I didn't even snag a part as a orc, which I probably wouldn't, I'd still fly down to wherever it was being filmed and search the area until I found where it was being shot. Then I'd hang around, looking for a glimpse of anything at all, until I was discovered and dragged away.
5. I would begin ticking off the days until the movie came out.
6. When it finally did come out, I would wait in line for hours just to see the very first screening of the movie.
7. I would watch the movie, and then be severely disappointed when it wasn't as good as the original. Because nothing can ever top the original.
8. I'd sulk.
9. Finally, disappointed and down, I would wait fifty or so years until the next instalment came out.
And I'm not even too hardcore of a Lord of the Rings fan.
Thanks for reading,
-Mark
