A great option for an entry-level wine club which showcases wines from Paso Robles, CA... a hot wine region known for its Zinfandel and wines made from Rhone varietals.
It's like going on a wine-tasting trip to Paso Robles without all the travel expenses! If you love Paso, you'll love this wine club.
We'd like them to publish what wines they've shipped to customers in the past and we'd like it if the website were more user-friendly.
This is Coastal Vineyards Wine Club's entry-level wine club featuring wines from the Paso Robles AVA in California. Like other two-bottle a month clubs in this price range, you can expect high quality wines delivered each month. This wine club would also make an excellent wine gift.
As with all wine clubs offering ongoing subscriptions with shipping and handling costs built in, we wish they wouldn't. It's appropriate for pre-paid subscriptions (especially for gifts) but when we're getting regular wine shipments we'd prefer to know how much of what we're paying for is wine and how much is shipping and packaging expenses.

An important piece of the new World Trade Center is being put into its place.
Construction crews used two giant cranes this morning on the 104th floor to install part of the 408 foot spire that will top the building.
One World Trade Center is already the tallest building in New York City and by adding the spire, the building will become the tallest structure in the western hemisphere.
When it's complete it will tower over other buildings standing 1,776 feet tall. One World Trade Center is expected to open later this year.

i've been a Metal Gear fan since MGS on PS1. love the series, but MGS4 is hardly a game. it has 8 hours of cutscenes. when me and my friend played through it, we spent so long with the controller on the floor and our hands just holding beer bottles and food. because there was nothing to do but watch until it finally looped back into an hour of gameplay only to be punctuated by another cutscene afterwards.
Uncharted certainly has more gameplay in it, but the sheer amount of QTEs anyway completely rid me of wonder. i remember seeing previews of the game thinking, "WOAH! this game has you doing this?!! i wonder how they'll pull this off! this is the future, for sure!" but no, it was just scripted scenes where you have to press time sequences of buttons to make the CGI animated character follow his script. sections like climbing up the temple on the mountain were really epic, but all too often they cut the best sections short for more corridor and wide open courtyard shootouts. it was a great presentation at first, but a let down in many ways.
anyway, Grassland Groove was really awesome in my opinion. firstly the mechanic of the level itself dancing in sync to the rhythm and the great music, then the use of the paper giraffe heads and the people holding them dancing as well, and the gradual sunset leading up to the last shot. definitely one of my favorite platformer levels of all time.

Legal action if your landlord won't do repairs
If your landlord doesn't do repairs or does them badly, you can take them to court and claim compensation.
How a court can help
If your landlord hasn't done the repairs they are responsible for, you can ask the court to order your landlord to:
- do the repairs and pay compensation
- only carry out the repairs needed
- only pay you compensation
The court can order your landlord to carry out the work immediately in emergency situations, for example if it's dangerous for you to live in the property.
The court could also make a declaration that you can do the repairs yourself and deduct what it costs you from future rent.
The court can order your landlord to pay you compensation. You can make a claim for compensation even after your tenancy has ended.
Using the small claims court process
Many repairs cases are dealt with in the county court under the 'small claims' track. The court decides how to deal with your case.
It should be dealt with as a small claim if you want to ask the court to order your landlord to either:
- do repairs that cost under £1000 and pay you compensation of no more than £1000
- only pay you compensation of up to £10,000
Using the small claim track means the court procedure is simpler and quicker. It's easier to represent yourself in court too.
An advantage with smalls claims is that if you lose, you don't have to pay your landlord's costs.
For more information, see the AdviceGuide to small claims.
Legal aid for repairs cases
If you are on a low income or claim benefits, you may be able to get legal aid to help with the cost of taking your landlord to court.
You can't get legal aid if you are going to court only to claim compensation from your landlord.
You can only get legal aid for a repairs case:
- if there is a serious risk of harm to you or others in your household, or
- it is part of your defence to a court action brought by your landlord to evict you because of rent arrears.
Contact Civil Legal Advice to check if you can get legal aid.
If you can't get legal aid ask a solicitor about a conditional fee arrangement. This is often known as a 'no-win no-fee' arrangement and can mean you don't pay a fee if you lose your case.
What legal action costs
You pay court fees to take legal action. Fees can be reduced or waived if you claim benefits or have a low income.
You can take legal action by yourself but some tenants decide to get legal help.
You often need to pay for an expert's report to tell the court about the condition of your home. If your health has been affected the court will also want a medical report. A solicitor can arrange these for you.
If you win your case, you can claim back what you have paid out from your landlord. You may have to take further court action if your landlord doesn't pay what the court ordered.
Some people can get legal aid to help with the costs of taking legal action.
Find out more from HM Courts and Tribunals about court fees.
Alternatives to legal action
If you are a council or a housing association tenant, you can complain to the Ombudsman. This service is free.
Before starting legal action
Before starting legal action you must make sure you have:
- reported the repairs and given your landlord time to complete them.
- gathered all the evidence needed to back up your claim
- sent a 'letter before action' to your landlord.
Report repairs
A court case to order your landlord to do repairs or claim compensation won't suceed if you don't report the repairs problem to your landlord during your tenancy.
Find out how to report repairs problems to a private landlord.
Find out how to report repairs problems to the council or to a housing association.
Gather evidence
Your evidence could include:
- copies of letters that show you reported the problem to your landlord
- photographs showing examples of the disrepair or damaged property
- receipts proving you had to replace things damaged or destroyed by the problem
- medical reports explaining how your health has been affected
- report from your council's environmental health department
Send a letter before action
You must send a 'letter before action' to your landlord, even if you have already told them you're going to start legal action.
The letter must:
- explain what the repairs problem is
- set out details of when you told the landlord about the problem
- give the landlord 20 working days to put the problem right – unless the repair is urgent
- state that if the landlord doesn't put the problem right within that time, you intend to take them to court
After 20 working days have passed, you can start your claim in the court.
How to start the court claim
Start your claim by filling in claim form N1. Ask your local county court for a form or find one online from HM Courts and Tribunals Service.
Send 2 copies of your claim form to the court where you want to start court action. Keep a copy for yourself.
You can start a claim after your tenancy has ended.
At the court hearing
Hearings usually take place in a room called chambers. This could be the judge's private room or a courtroom. The public aren't allowed to sit in.
You can be represented at the hearing by a lawyer or adviser or you can represent yourself
Before making its decision, the court looks at all the evidence you and your landlord have provided.
The court can order your landlord to:
- carry out the specified work by a certain date
- pay you amount in compensation and pay your costs
The court could also make a declaration that you can do the repairs yourself and deduct what you pay out from future rent.
If your evidence isn't strong enough, the court could dismiss your claim.
If your landlord doesn't do as the court says
A landlord who doesn't carry out the works ordered by the court will be in contempt of court and can be fined or even sent to prison.
You might have to take further court action if your landlord doesn't pay you the compensation ordered by the court.
Advice before starting legal action
Going to court should be your last resort.
Get advice before you start legal action. An adviser may be able to help you reach an agreement with your landlord. If that's not possible or acceptable, they'll advise on the best course of action.
For face to face help, use Shelter's directory to find a housing adviser at a Shelter advice service, Citizen's Advice or law centre.
Anyone can call Shelter's free national helpline on 0808 800 4444.
Some private landlords prefer to evict tenants rather than do repair work. Find out about the risk of eviction if you ask for repairs and when the law can protect you.

Main Street JazzFest 2014 will carry deep MTSU ties, with Dr. Gloria Bonner co-chairing this year's edition of the highly anticipated local music tradition.
Now in its 18th year, the annual musical celebration is set for Friday and Saturday, May 2-3, in downtown Murfreesboro. The event features free admission, free parking and free entertainment as well as a wide variety of food vendors in the heart of the city.
Bonner, special assistant to President Sidney A. McPhee in the Office of University Community Relations, said the festival is expected to attract thousands of jazz enthusiasts to downtown.
Volunteers are still needed for the two-day event, which will be held on two stages. To sign up to help, visit http://mainstreetjazzfest.net/volunteer/.
"It's an exciting time," said Bonner, who is co-chairing the event with husband Ray Bonner. "We're encouraging families and community members to just hang out with us downtown."
An added attraction this year is "Jazz After Dark," which will showcase various artists playing live at select venues downtown after JazzFest officially ends Saturday night. Among those performing will be the latest rendition of famed R&B/soul group The Drifters.
The Southeast Tourism Society has named JazzFest one of the Top 20 Events in the Southeast for May 2014.
"This is a true music festival," said Kathleen Herzog, director of Main Street Murfreesboro/Rutherford County Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to downtown revitalization "It's a diverse, multicultural family friendly event. You don't want to miss this."
Area high school bands will once again kick off the festival Friday night beginning at 6 p.m. Music resumes at 11 a.m. Saturday, featuring a free children's area from noon to 6 p.m. and a free jazz clinic led by singer/songwriter Kevin Whalum at 3:30 p.m. at the Center for the Arts downtown.
Saturday afternoon's musical lineup includes the Murfreesboro Youth Jazz Orchestra, MTSU Jazz Ensemble I and MTSU Faculty Combo. Saturday night's lineup will feature regional and local talent including the Marcus Finnie Band, Dara Tucker, Joe Davidian and Friends, Joe Johnson, and the 129thArmy Jazz Band.

Update - 4:40 PM
West Texas A&M quarterbacks coach Ryan Leaf resigned effective immediately, the university announced late Thursday afternoon.
The former Washington State standout and five-year NFL quarterback allegedly obtained painkillers from a Buffaloes player, who recently had been injured, Canyon Police said Wednesday. Leaf is being investigated for possible criminal offenses, Lt. Dale Davis said.
Leaf is in his third season at WT as an assistant football coach and also was the Buffs golf coach. Offensive coordinator Scott Parr is taking over Leaf's duties in football while Jimmy Jameson will replace Leaf as golf coach.
- Staff writer Greg Jaklewicz
West Texas A&M quarterbacks coach Ryan Leaf is being investigated for obtaining a controlled substance by fraudulent means, said investigator Lt. Dale Davis of the Canyon Police Department.
Leaf has been granted an indefinite leave of absence effective immediately, said WT Athletic Director Michael Mc- Broom.
McBroom on Wednesday said Leaf's request was for personal reasons and he could not elaborate.
However, ESPN broadcast and reported online that Leaf had asked a WT player for a prescribed pill to ease the pain of a wrist injured during his NFL career.
"I can't comment," McBroom said. He said he is "looking into (the accusations), but I don't have any specifics on it or when it will be wrapped up or what the outcome will be."
McBroom said he was contacted by ESPN, which told him that it had received an anonymous e-mail concerning Leaf.
Davis said the Canyon Police Department was contacted by a member of the public, not someone associated with West Texas A&M. The investigation includes the possibility that Leaf acquired medication from a WT football player who was recently injured, Davis said.
"Our intent is to investigate this thing very cautiously (either) to present a good case to the Randall County district attorney or exonerate Mr. Leaf," Davis said.
Davis said the investigation will extend into next week.
Leaf is a former Washington State and five-year NFL quarterback who has been an assistant coach for the Buffs for three seasons. In addition to football, he also coaches the men's golf team.
Under Leaf, WT has produced the No. 1 passing offense in NCAA Division II.
West Texas football coach Don Carthel said offensive coordinator Scott Parr would assume Leaf's duties.
"We're moving on," Carthel said.
WT plays its regular-season finale at 3 p.m. Saturday against Tarleton State at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium.

- Convenient helmet for transportation and storage.
Very handy storage pouch at home helmet. It is convenient to transport in the car. Inside is a place for the altimeter and other small things.
Now my wife and I have the same case for helmet.

- Wonderful for what it is, but it literally STINKS
I think this case is great. I have a large cookie G3, and it fits in the It does a great job of taking care of the helmet inside, and it does a great job of using the space inside the helmet too. There is a case that is anchored to the bottom of the bag. I put my alti, USB, face mask, neck gaiter, log book, and a couple more items in there. It's quite spacious, and keeps things nice and organized. The styling is great, and the function is even better. Lots of handles and rings on the outside to hang from, and the elastic on the inside keeps your helmet from rolling around and getting dinged up. The only complaint I have about this case is it STINKS. I had to let it air out for a long time before I could stand to smell the thing. My closet still smells like the case after months. It has definitely been worth the smell, as it's been a great case. A little bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for (except for the smell). Definitely a great investment for your expensive helmet!

Love it!!! I recently got my Phantom XV and it fits perfectly in the Exo helmet case that my wife got for me for Christmas. I put my altimeter and pull-up cords in the middle container. I like the expandable material inside the upper portion of the case as it keeps the helmet in place. Having the outside handle makes it easy to carry with my gear bag and the exterior looks awesome!!!

- Great Helmet Case
I have a Phantom X and it is a extra large.
This case fits it perfectly, and i love the inside compartment that holds my alti, gloves, and pull up cords.
Great quality and I have zero concerns about my helmet being damaged when it is inside the EXO.
While the price is a little high, the quality & durability make up for it.
You wont be disappointed with this case.

My DD has an x-ray scheduled for tomorrow. I didn't schedule, I just spoke to my pediatrician about her in-toeing and got a call from a 'referral consultant'. She scheduled me for an x-ray followed by an appointment with an orthopedist.
I am pretty sure that there is nothing structural going. The pediatrician doesn't think there is. And I have a lot of doctors in my family, and none of them are even concerned about it. It was my initiative and all I really wanted from the ped was a recommendation for physical therapy (my insurance doesn't even require a referral) so that we can do some things to help her walking and balance.
Would you be okay with an x-ray that is so unnecessary?
No replies :(
But I did just call the office and asked whether the orthopedist would see her without an x-ray. They said yes. No x-ray!

Mission MCLB: Base Chapel
Base Chaplain Lt. Ken Miller says the chapel at the Marine Corps Logistics Base is unique for a number of reasons. "That's one of our strengths, one of the things we like to create is that community of being not only Christians but also war fighters. We defend our country so yeah it's a commonality and a bonding moment for them" says Miller.
The base chapel sees anywhere from 60-100 people a week and they say they're growing. Each week the chaplain preaches and counsels marines and other personnel on base. Having a safe place to seek advice and/or counseling from not only a Christian perspective, but a military perspective is important for those on base dealing with various issues. "I think it's important because it's something they can identify with because we not only are in uniform, but because we go on deployment with them and we serve with them. That creates a bond that they can trust us, not only with them in deployed places but even with their most intimate problems and family issues as well" says Miller.
Counseling covers personal family issues, identifying and helping marines going through initial stages of PTSD, and other issues as well. "The interesting thing about military life is that if the family is out of whack then everything else seems to fall out of wack as well. So we want to help them at home so they can do what they're supposed to while they're here at work" says Miller.
The base also has a direct line to senior leadership if they encounter any bigger issues including ethical questions.
In addition to Sunday service and bible study the base chapel sponsors multiple programs throughout the year including marriage enrichment retreats, a women's ministry, and a thriving donation ministry.
Religous Programming Director Peter Green is the right hand to the chaplain and says he wants all civilians to know one main thing about the base chapel. " The one takeaway from this chapel is that there is a huge support system that can help guide, direct, and lead people to positions and prepare them for a spiritually gifted life" says Green.

Katy Perry Knocks Out VMA Crowd
Posted: August 29, 2013
Katy Perry decided to close out this year's MTV Video Music Awards with fists of fury, as she sang and danced her was through new hit single "Roar" in the middle of a boxing ring.
Set up outdoors under the Brooklyn Bridge, Perry donned a tiger-striped top and flame-emblazoned boxing shorts. The pop superstar shimmied and shadowboxed, and even showed off some superior skills with a jump rope.
If fans watched her act closely, they would have also seen an amazing Gold Penguin from the Gretsch Custom Shop in the background.

Patrick Matera Recording New Solo Record
Posted: March 6, 2013
Patrick Matera might be well known at Katy Perry's guitarist, but he's also been hard at work on a new solo record.
And to complete it, Matera launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise a final $10,000 with rewards that include a digital download of the album to the opportunity to have the artist play a private 45-minute set at a fan's home.
"I've been playing guitar with Katy Perry since the 2008 Warped Tour," he wrote on his Kickstarter page. "When we had a little time off last summer, I began working on this solo record, writing songs and recording demos. It's pop music, I'd say… electronic/guitar/vibey singer/songwriter stuff. I'll be singing, playing guitar and keyboards on it and just need a little help from my friends to finish it and get it out there to you. I'm raising funds so I can pay all the musicians, studio owners, engineers, mixers, etc., that I need to help complete the project."

Katy Perry Rocks Kids' Inaugural Concert
Posted: January 23, 2013
It was impossible to miss Katy Perry over the weekend when she performed in an American flag-inspired outfit for the Kids' Inaugural Concert in Washington D.C.
The superstar headlined a show that also included Usher and Far East Movement.
Introduced by first lady Michelle Obama, Perry blazed through her hits "Teenage Dream," "Part of Me," "Wide Awake" and "Firework." The latter song was accompanied by a slideshow of President Barak Obama. (more…)

Gretsch Chat with Patrick Matera
Posted: July 23, 2012
Patrick Matera, guitarist for pop sensation Katy Perry, is a big Gretsch fan, and he recently stopped by the Gretsch Artist Showroom to discuss his relationship with the brand.
Matera – who may be best-known for the copper and blue Gretsch Billy Bo guitars he uses on stage – notes in the video below that he had wanted to play Gretsch guitars since childhood, when he had the opportunity to play with Chet Atkins.
Off-camera, we asked Matera a few more questions, including one about Katie Perry: Part of Me 3D, which hit theaters this month.
Check out the interviews below.
Gretsch Post: What does the Billy Bo sound like to you?
Matera: It's got a typical Gretsch sound, somewhat like a Duo Jet with a little more mid-range, whether that's from the pickups or the body shape. Hollowed-out, they're pretty light. And that thicker humbucker sound – compared to a Tele – isn't overwhelming and dark like a Les Paul.
GP: What do you think about your big-screen debut?
Matera: Actually, I'm hesitant to see the movie at all because it's going to seem weird. You're not supposed to be that large and in 3D. I think it's going to be embarrassing [laughs] because we had the documentary crew out with us for a year and we have no idea what they're going to use. Hopefully, they'll be kind to us.
It will be amazing, but I admit that when I first heard it was coming out for real, I cringed a little bit. I'll let other people decide if it's any good, and in 20 years I'll watch it on a hologram [laughs]. No, it should be fun.
GP: You've been playing Perry's huge hits for a few years now. Is there one song you really enjoy playing live?
Matera: We used to do a cover of "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen, and I always liked playing that one. We ended up being in a hotel in Manchester, England, and Brian May was sitting in the lobby on his laptop, so I went up and said hey. This was like three years ago, so Katy wasn't as big as she is now. I introduced myself, and he said "Oh, I've seen you play 'Don't Stop Me Now' on YouTube!" He ended up coming to one of our shows in England, and when we had to play that song, it was a little nerve-wracking. It came time to solo, and there's Brian May off to the side with his arms crossed. No pressure.
GP: Did you nail it?
Matera: I just kind of went for it. I remember looking on YouTube for that performance so I could check, and I couldn't find it. It's probably for the best.
For a list of Matera's tour dates, visit Perry's official website.

The European Commission allocates almost 56,000 EUR to bring relief to the victims of the cold wave in Northern Kazakhstan (05/02/2013)
ASTANA – Since 18 December 2012, Northern Kazakhstan has been hit by a cold wave reaching temperatures of minus 40 to minus 46 degrees accompanied by heavy snow fall. This led to cuts in power and hot-water supply. About 5,000 people are particularly badly affected, among them homeless people, street children, single women with children and elderly people living alone are particularly vulnerable.
The European Commission provides 55,800 EUR to bring relief to 2000 among the most vulnerable victims. This aid will be used for distributions of food, warm clothes, blankets and footwear until the end of February to cover the coldest months of the year. The aid is channelled through the Kazakhstan Red Crescent who operates with funding out of the Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
The European Commission has signed a EUR 3 million humanitarian contribution agreement with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) to support the Federation's Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF). Funds from the DREF are mainly allocated to "small-scale" disasters – those that do not give rise to a formal international appeal.
The Disaster Relief Emergency Fund was established in 1985 and is supported by contributions from donors. Each time a National Red Cross or Red Crescent Society needs immediate financial support to respond to a disaster, it can request funds from the DREF. For small-scale disasters, the IFRC allocates grants from the Fund, which can then be replenished by the donors. The contribution agreement between the IFRC and the European Commission enables the latter to replenish the DREF for agreed operations (that fit in with its humanitarian mandate) up to a total of EUR 3 million.
For more information please contact Ms Karla Jamankulova, the EU Delegation Press & Information Officer at tel + 7 7172 97-11-48 email email@example.com.

Zombie Burbz is an app game for iPad and Android Tablets that uses toy figures to control the action in the game. Each playable zombie figure unlocks a character-specific area with multiple levels for you to play through as you fend off gangs of humans trying to drive you from your home.
Before each level begins, you place traps to slow the oncoming humans. The traps range from a simple banana peel to more elaborate items like trap-door. As you progress through levels you unlock more traps.
Once the traps are placed, you start the level and get ready to fight any humans that make it past your traps. Since you are a zombie and the walking-dead rarely have a lot of dexterity, your weapons are shouts and toxic burp clouds.
Kids (and adults) who are into zombies and fart-jokes will get a kick out of this game and since the majority of the game involves turning the figure and pressing a few buttons, kids as young as six should have no problem playing.
The zombie figures are sold in a pack of four, however, only one of them is a playable, "Deluxe" figure. The other three are collectibles only.
The figures are highly sensitive and you need to maintain constant pressure on your tablet surface. Even when maintaining pressure, my game frequently asked me to place the figure back on the tablet even though it hadn't been moved.
Zombie Burbz is available for iPad and Android tablets, however, when I tried to play this on my 7" Android tablet, the game would not recognize the figure and was completely unplayable.
The game is a free download but you need the figures to play. The four-pack of figures costs $9.99.
This is a classic "Tower Defense" type of game.

Skip to comments.Arrow-wielding elves and fiery Smaug amp up action in 'The Hobbit'
Posted on 12/12/2013 5:53:02 PM PST by BenLurkin
In the male-dominated realm of Middle Earth, only a few female characters are given a chance to shine - notably Liv Tyler's elf maiden Arwen and Cate Blanchett's elf queen Galadriel in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
When adapting Tolkein's prequel "The Hobbit" into three films, Jackson worked with producers to create a new character not featured in the original book. Unlike Tyler and Blanchett's characters, the elf warrior Tauriel, played by Evangeline Lilly, is not high-born - she is a working class 'Silvan' elf, who guards the Elven kingdom.
(Excerpt) Read more at money.msn.com ...
hmmmmm... we have a _resident just like that....
Fictionalized fiction.
mathematically a double negative is positive
Cumberbatch, who also plays dark spirit Necromancer in "The Hobbit" films, said Smaug's characteristics could convey a more contemporary social message.
"You could read him as some sort of emblem for all that's gone wrong in the past decade with free market capitalism if you wanted to.
Smaug does nothing to create his own wealth but simply takes from others who were successful. He lays around doing nothing and creates a nasty smell in the residence he does not own or pay for.
Sounds more like an indictment of the typical obama voter
"You could read him as some sort of emblem for all that's gone wrong in the past decade with free market capitalism if you wanted to. His level of venality is pretty devastating and destroys him as much as the things around him," he said.
Yeah. Sure. We're just overwhelmed with an out-of-control free market. That's the problem. Uh huh.
I'm looking forward to the film, but Jackson always makes some bad choices, and his view of the world is not my view, and I suspect that Tolkien would be dismayed by much that is in (and much that is not in) the movies.
Does anyone remember the old video format which used a needle much like a stereo? You pushed the entire record and cover into it and it extracts the video disc.
I had the cartoon version of "The Hobbit" on one of those discs and it was actually pretty good. It gave me a good background on the story and I look forward to seeing the new movies.
Eh...meh. I skipped The Hobbit because it looked like they were trying to make it too much like LOTR. The clips I've seen of the new one look like more of the same.
Yeah, I get that The Hobbit is the precursor to LOTR. But The Hobbit novel also had a different feel and flow to it. It wasn't the epic struggle of good and evil so much as the wonders of the world revealed to someone whose world had been quite small before. The was the charm of the book for me.
Just MHO, of course. Millions of movie goers obviously disagree with me.
either fortunately or unfortunately i do
My sister bought me the illustrated book that used stills from that movie.
Read the book it's even better!
down down to goblin town...best song ever
It was actually full of good songs.
those 15 birds,
in 5 birch trees,
o what shall we do,
with the funny little things
Yeah, the video quality was watchable but that was about it.
They also had a lot of "skips".
"The greatest adventure" "Chip the glasses, crack the plates. That's what Bilbo Baggins hates".
my dad had one for a couple of weeks
Fake but accurate?
Just had to stretch it out a bit, eh? Can't wait to see it. I love those stories, as is. Liked LOTR but missed Tom Bombadil, the other Rangers, and the scouring of the Shire which is crucial to the point of the spreading of evil.
i need to consult the missus
I still have one which works along with maybe a dozen movies.
The last time I played it, I had to replace the rubber band drive belt. I suspect if I get it out again, it will require another one.
That first drive belt had literally turned into a glue like substance.
I agree.
The Hobbit is a upbeat little tale — and IIRC the ring was a kind fun thing. Not evil at all.
I think Jackson has the trust of the audience to make it work. Looking forward to seeing it soon.
I'm confident that it will work to make him money.
RCA selectavision. My dad sold his 2 players and about 250 movies last summer.
I've been reading Tolkien forever. Read it to all of my kids, too.
Frankly, I recommended re-reading the books and forgetting the movies.
Mine is a Sears. I have no idea who actually made it.
***to create a new character not featured in the original book. ***
Kind of like what Dalton Trumbo did to SPARTACUS. There was no Tony Curtis character in the Howard Fast book.
Also no "I AM SPARTACUS" scene.
I think most of the people who will see these movies have little interest in reading.
My goal this year was to read 100 books. I am currently on my 74th.
Gonna fall short of the goal but the only regret I have is my wife washed my wallet and punch card for Book City. It was almost good for that $5.00 off.
I love all of the books, and I read them every few years just for the experience.
The movies depart from the books in many ways. Plot elements that were crucial in the books were dropped in the movies. (For example, the fact that Bilbo had cursed Gollum that if he ever touched the ring again, he would die, and it was that curse that actually enabled the destruction of the ring was completely omitted from the movies.) Despite the differences, despite the fact that a lot of LOTR material was placed into the Hobbit movie--I still enjoy the movies. They will never have the impact that the books have on me.
But grammatically a double positive is a negative. "You're going to regret that." "Yeah, right."
yeah huh
I was a fan of Lord of the Rings but I have yet to see "The Hobbit"
i liked it enuf to pirate a copy
The MPAA will be knocking on your door... :p
good luck i wish them the best of luck if only if they can get over the pile of bodies from the nsa fbi hhs epa fcc irs...
Evangeline Lilly. I think she played 'Kate' in the TV series 'Lost'. And she dated another character on Lost who also played 'Meriadoc Took' in the Trilogy. And she's built like a boy.
Wonder if that's how she got the job; and, I hate it when directors and screenwriters make stuff up. (See: 'Under the Dome').
I've been reading the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings trilogy since high school in the early 60's. I just finished reading the Hobbit again last year before the first prequel was released. I love the books and read them every few years.
But the movies are very well made too. So they may vary a little from the books but what movie doesn't? No movie I ever saw that was made from a book was EXACTLY like the book. They never are.
But books are for curling up on the couch to read or reading in bed before falling to sleep at night. Movies are meant to be a completely different experience. Bigger than life screens, popcorn and a soda, an entertaining movie in a dark theater are great times. Reading books and watching movies are not meant to be the same. And who really cares if the movie is a little off from the text? All movie-makers take some creative license to make the movie as entertaining as possible.
My wife and I and enjoyed the Lord of the Rings trilogy movies and have seen the prequel of the Hobbit. We are looking forward to seeing the second part as well. These are timeless classics and I am glad someone finally put them to the big screen in a quality way.
How many millions has Cumberbatch taken for his films?
Well, I enjoyed the Lord of the Ring movies, in a way. But they kept straying further and further away from the books, and in the end I was very disappointed. It wasn't just a question of leaving out complications, but it was a failure to understand some of Tolkien's most basic ideas.
Nobility and honor, for instance.
So, the exageration of female importance has run throughout the franchise.
Yea, that was the same for me......
Just curious, is Tom Bombadil in the Hobbit movie?
Is that coming back as a series? It should have ended for good with the final episode.........
I knew that. The elf's name was Garfunkel.
Oh wait...that's in "Bored of the Rings"
Nobility and honor are an anathema to the pinkos and perverts who run the so-called "entertainment" industry.
Is that creature a Smaug ?

Bombadil only appears in the Fellowship of the Ring (book) and in some Tolkien poetry.
In The Hobbit, there is a (somewhat) equivalent character named Beorn who is a shape-changer (bear). He is in the book, and I'm pretty sure he's in the movie -- but I haven't seen the second Hobbit movie, so I cannot say for sure.
That is most certainly true. The spirit of the books is not in any of the movies.
