So...am I the only one who has a stronger picture of Weaving as a drag queen
from Priscilla, Queen of the Desert than from the Matrix?

On the "Hahaha! Gimli is short!" running gag --

I was talking about this with Cassie and after our second viewing we decided
that the Hahaha! Gimli is short gags are still funny. Gimli, however, is
rescued from Comic Relief Hell (Comic Relief Purgatory? Limbo?) by the fact
that he is very handy with that axe of his.

In general -- I have to say that I simply adored TTT. I've never been as
much of a fan of LOTR as HP, but I do consider the LOTR movies as
spectacular works of cinema. (So far, anyway, and unless they get Chris
Columbus for ROTK, I doubt it'll change :D)

*wishes HP had had Cuaron earlier..."Riding in Flying Ford Anglias With
Boys", anyone? ;)*
