Wow, this is so cool! And I knew most of this too!

61. On the sence in FOTR when Bilbo dropped the ring of the floor of Bag End, the floor was magnetic so that the ring would wobble on the ground to show the weight of the Ong Ring.

62. Orlando fell off his horse during the Warg Attack in TTT and broke two ribs! (ouch!)

^ no I don't believe it was. Good one, I knew that one too. :duh:

64. Liv Tyler sang the song that's played during the Houses of Healing scene on the ROTK EE DVD. (I don't think somebody already said that... :blush: )

Uh.... This is LotR, right? Not LotR movies...

65. Elladan, Elrohir, and Arwen can truthfully say that two of the three elven rings belong to their relatives, their grandmother (mother's side) is older than the sun, their grandfather (father's side) is a star, and their other grandmother (father's side) is a bird, and that they and their father and uncle are the only two (as far as I know) elven twins. What an odd family.

No, I *think* this is supposed to be movie facts, seeing as this is the movie forum. But I personally am open to either. :) I like your fact, it made me laugh!

It's LotR, so I would presume that would work also. ;)

66) during the end of puttting one of the films together the tech. crew would be so crunched for time that they would go to work prepared to be there all night ( ex: taking shampoo)

67. Supposedly there is one scene in TTT where you can clearly see that Gandalf is wearing running shoes. (I think it's the scene where he calls Shadowfax but I'm not positive)

69) (Correct me if I'm wrong) Viggo, Orlando and John Rhys-davies all had to run with at least one broken bone during the 'chase scene' in TTT. Ouch!

70) The last pickup shot (a close-up of some skulls falling in the paths of the dead) was shot after rotk had already won the Oscars! Nice. :P

71) As i recall, Billy 'stole' a skull from the above-mentioned set... lol

75) The sound of the balrog's roar was actually an enhanced version of two cinder blocks being slowly drug across one another.

Oh, Yes! He did. :laugh:

76. During the scene with Anduril, when Boromir and Aragorn are talking, Aragorn is reading a book. That book is Return of the King. [Aragorn is reading about his future....]
