Clones or Extended LOTR? Which one will you listen first? (1 Viewer)

[JaleelK]

I got only 3 hours tonight, and got both new DVD, LOTR Extended and Star Wars II. I'm torn apart! I can only watch one tonight, then it will go to saturday only.

Go with the better movie, its Clones in a photo finish.

Attack of the Clones
Peace Out~

I'll be watching FOTR EE! Of course I will pop in AOTC just to hear/feel the scene with the famous "BOINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GG" as Chris so elequently put.

 

[John Garcia]

By no stretch of imagination was AOTC the better movie...visually it is very impressive, sound is excellent, but as a whole, this movie was not exactly up there with the best, or even some of my favorites. It is definitely better than Episode 1 though. It's a popcorn movie to me (I don't mean that in a bad way)
LOTR has an unquestionably excellent story, great sound and spectacular cinematography. There's no question in my mind which is better. Someone mentioned it being a new experience, well with the extra 30min, I believe LOTR:EV will be a new experience.

CLONES, as I want to sit back Saturday, pop numerous bags of popcorn, and enjoy RINGS (didn't buy the 1st edition, wanting to wait) at a leasurely rate. As I noted in the other thread, 24 is on tonight (non-TIVO owner here ), and I have a very narrow time frame between when I get my hands on CLONES and 24. I won't tape 24, I need that "real time" feel.

 

[Sam Graves]

To quote Chris

"BOINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GG"

I knew I wasn't the only one looking forward to that scene! AOTC for me tonight!

 

[Charles M Berry]

I'm a student and dont have to go to work like a normal person. Nor do I have to go to classes, if I don't want to. So, I got up at 8:30 and purchased AOTC and LOTR:EE at 9:00. I then watched all of SW and most of LOTR. At about 2:00 I ventured back out of my dorm room and went to work.
What a day!

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Clones for me.
FOTR:EE tommarrow!

 

[Steve Christou]

Lord of the Clones. Thats the ticket laddie!
Watch the blooper reel easter egg on Clones, and wonder how many times Hayden must have tripped over his Jedi shoelaces during shooting, watch as Natalie falls off something and flashes some leg, that should have been left in the film for gawds sake Geroge!!, watch Natalie laugh her ass off as Hayden falls over the umpteenth time (tripping over a girls dress).
On the other hand watch the mtv spoof easter egg on Rings and laugh as Jack Black drops his trousers in front of the Council of Elrond, watch their reaction, I fell off my chair...

One word:
BOINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GG

That scene was actually really subdued compared to the rest of the mix IMO. The opening scenes with Padmes ship flying toward Corusant had ALOT more bass. The whole mix just seems unbalanced to me. There seem to be some scenes that have waaaay to much bass, and some not nearly enough (like the BOING)

Any hints, Steve, as to where these eggs are at? I've been too busy scouring the internet for bargain prices to go on an egg-hunt!

 

[Martin Fontaine]

I'm gonna check out both of them later tonight, just watch the first 5 mins of each wearing headphones... I'll most likely watch LOTR Part 1 tomorrow and Part 2 thursday and Star Wars on Saturday.

I hope the neighbors will stay silent, I got a complaint on Men With Brooms (Those Curling Stones make a lot of bass when they hit eachother!) so I lowered my sub to -3 (0 on my Receiver's dial was the recommended 85dB on the SPL) so just to be safe, I'll put it to -5 for these 2 movies...

 

[Paul_Scott]

Adam H,
i totally agree with you.
i didn't actually watch the whole thing, just stepped thru each chapter and played some significant scenes.
i too found the seismic charge sequence to be really muted.
very disappointing.
that should have been the sonic high point of the disc and just comes across very anemic and limp.
while on the other hand some pretty innocuous stuff is given this way over the top low end.
very unbalanced.

I did AOTC simply cause my LOTR gift set has not arrived. On a side note I thought my $9.99 TRU AOTC dvd's bass was fine, and I am a bass lover.
THANKS to DAVID LAMBERT for POSTING THE TRU $9.99 AOTC DVD SPECIAL!!
Thank You David!

 

[Bolivar G]

I have not seen AOTC yet. What is this Boinnngggg refference everyone keeps talking about? I also bought AOTC for $9.99 , priced matched at Circuit City. Will be watching the movie tommorrow, no time tonight. And I have not recieved my 5 disc box set of LOTR yet from bestbuy.com Got that set for $29 shipped with my 25 dollar digital coupon for buying band of brothers.

 

[Richard Kim]

What is this Boinnngggg refference everyone keeps talking about?

Just wait till Obi-Wan and Jango get to the asteroid rings of Geonosis. You'll find out.

 

[StevenJ]

Well, I watched AOTC first because the first time I saw LOTR I didn't like too much. I do have both AOTC and LOTR Extended.

I am currently watching the cast commentary on LOTR to see if I like it better.

Todd, you're welcome, but as I've already posted elsewhere, I don't deserve all of the credit. In fact, HTFer Jeffrey Mercado brought this thing to my attention; share the love with him!
