Post subject:	First Impressions Round 3: RotK CLOSED
First and foremost, the results of the last round! First place goes to Arëwen Telemnar! http://i15.tinypic.com/8eig3mr.jpg Second place goes to smeagollum! http://i7.tinypic.com/6o1iagl.jpg Third place goes to ForeverFrodo! http://i6.tinypic.com/6lvhwtc.jpg Astraeus gets Honourable Mention! http://i4.tinypic.com/6tv048n.jpg And (this is the first time I've done this award) Maetharanel receives Host's Choice! http://i17.tinypic.com/8e5x89d.jpg I'm sorry the awards aren't near as beautiful as all the entries we had. --------------------------- Now, for First Impressions Round 3: Return of the King. Here are the rules and premise (copied from the past rounds): Sort through your memories... some of us will have to think back five years... to the day you first watched The Return of the King. Can you re-capture your first impressions, the things that made you laugh, the things that made you cry, the things that made your eyes widen as you breathed "wow"? Basically, this contest is a challenge to try to remember your first impressions of RotK, and make a wallpaper based off of that. If you can't remember very clearly, that's alright; just do the best you can. Rules: - The graphic must use pictures from The Return of the King, and no other LotR movie. You can add textures, nature pictures, etc., so long as it has at least one image from RotK. - The graphic must be a wallpaper; dimensions, 800x600 - One entry per person, please - The graphic must contain the word "impression" or "impressions" somewhere on it. I don't care if you just use the single word, include it in a sentence of your own... be creative! As long as the word is there, even if it's quoting a song or poem, it's fine. - The graphic must in some way reflect your impressions of The Return of the King. - I'm not going to force this one on you, but it would certainly make me happier if you had fun. Deadline: - Please try to have your entry in by January 18, 2008. I may change this if people need more time. Participants: - Revenge - Andune Telemnar - [s]ForeverFrodo[/s] - Fencing Maiden - Nessameldë - Meganelf - Freya Baggins Best of luck to you all!

Andune and FF, I'll add both of you. Lovely entries, Andune and Revenge! I get the feeling most of the entries this time around are going to deal with the end of the movie...

Ah, well I remember seeing LotR for the first time. I was completely LotR-illiterate, I had <i>no idea</i> what was going to happen, and I watched it at 3 AM in the morning, by myself, on the floor with a tiny little travel-sized tv. And I cried for the characters in their sacrifices, cheered Frodo and Sam on, clung to my TV desperately in the battle scenes, and sank back wearily when it was all over saying to myself, "This is the best movie ever." It was probably one of the most magical moments of my life. Yes, I shall definitely enter. Here is my entry: http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m179 ... ession.jpg

Alrighty, adding new participants... Astraeus, don't be afraid to enter! Your entry last time was really beautiful. Also, it's by practice that you get better. FM, I second Frodo: it's an awesome entry!
