The only problem I have with that is that it sets up this idea that elves never get drunk...what are they going to do to explain Bilbo's escape from the Elven King in Mirkwood? Tolkien said the wine was pretty potent, but still...

I agree though : it was a funny scene.

I liked Pip's reaction to seeing Gandalf too. *WISH* that had been included in the theatrical version.

They make us move to a new hole after we have trashed out the other one. No musty old Took holes here...(borrowing from Pippin that is!) LOL

Then you'll definitely love the EE. And yeah, more in the theatrical version would have been nice. I think the one difficulty they had though is that once they were in Mordor, there really wasnt much else except getting up the side of Mt Doom.

What bugs me is that there wree pictures revealed early on in the promos and throughout of various tantalizing scenes, but they STILL didnt show up in the EE...like Arwen in Lorien with Galadriel, or Eowyn and Faramir kissing (which I know was filmed).

*sigh* Faramir!

Can they clone that Aussie (David Wenham) for us please???????????

Bad enough as it sits that sometimes it gets snarled and knotted up.
Or it gets sand or mud stuck to it at the beach, and so I end up having to detangle it and de-gunkify it.

Though said toes sound Hobbitish, I fear I would be rather tall for a Hobbit.

Well, perhaps elves don't get so drunk on the mere watery ales of men...
