Galadriel's Question and TTT DVD
Gil-Galad

In answer to Galadriels question - those men are most likely from the southern lands of Harad and they will probably feature in the Battle of Pelennor Fields. If they are not Haradrim, then they are either from Rhun or Khand (Lands inside and just on the border of Mordor)

I just got the Two Towers DVD and wow!! The Battle of Helms Deep is just breathtaking. I will buy the 4 disc DVD in November just to see the flash backs of Boromir and Faramir. (It appears Sean Bean has more time in the extended versions than in the version shown iin the cinema) The 10 minute preview of the ROTK is brilliant. The ROTK looks fab - especially the siege of Minas Tirith by 200,000 Mordor Orcs and the ride of the Rohirrim. The sheer size of the siege and following battle are just outstanding. It will be the greatest battle ever filmed. It should be the perfect way to end a 3 year journey that takes movies to a new level. It is without a doubt the best trilogy ever made! (Forget Star Wars!!)I will certainly order the soundtrack to the ROTK as the previous 2 have been so brilliant.
