So the other day, I went to see The Hobbit... · 4:30am Dec 16th, 2012
So the other day, I went to see The Hobbit. And I'm going to be honest, I haven't seen the original Lord of the Rings movies. I was walking with some friends and they were talking about how 'pumped' they were for The Hobbit and asked if I'd go with them. My response?
"Uh, sorry guys. I guess I'm the only person in America who hasn't seen Lord of the Rings. I was never into that fantasy stuff, sorry."
Their response?
I'm the guy in the pot, and I wasn't even mad.
My friends hauled my ass to their house and we had a marathon of all three movies. In nine whole hours. Was I derp? Yes, yes I was. But I have to say, the movies were pretty good. The characters' names were hard to remember, though.
So a day later, we all see the Hobbit. It was f**king awesome. In my opinion, way better than the LOTR, but that's just me. So why the hell am I talking about this on Fimfiction? Well, there was a trailer for a movie, Pacific Rim...
Listen to the computer's voice.
Dude, it's frickin' GLaDOS. Well, I'm happy to see she's still finding work after Aperture closed down. She was once the head of a research facility, now she's the spokesman for a giant fighting robot.
Oh, and I checked IMBD. They really got Ellen Mclain to do the voice. Isn't life grand?
Pacific Rim? Looks good :)
Oh, don't feel bad, I've never watched LOTR either :p

I freaking LOVE Glados!!! I'm going to see that movie just because of her now
yeah the hobbit is a great movie, though i agree that as with the lord of the rings its difficult to remember all the names especally as half of them sound the same. most of the time i just focus on the main characters like bilbo, frodo, gandolf and so on while i just dont bother with the others like the rest of the hobbits names.
Wait... A "Portal" between realities... GLaDOS as the targeting computer... Dear Faust, this is all Aperture's fault!
To be honest, you could have seen the Hobbit first, Seeing as it was written, published, and comes/came before The Lord of the Rings. That being said, best use of 9 hours I have heard of in a while. Can't wait to see the Hobbit on Monday.
Glados!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like 2 factions from a collectable miniature game known as Monsterpocalypse. Makes me interested as it was a great, but neglected game.
The armor the soldiers wear... it looks like something from aperture labs.
So many wonderful coincidences! I hope her voice shows up more often in the movie than it did in the trailer!
The exact same thing happened to me, but I had to watch the extended editions. Anyway, The Hobbit was bloody awesome.
Gotta wait until the 26th to see the hobbit in Australia. So unfair.
Also i just marathoned the the whole Lotr trilogy for like the 100th time.
GLaDOS has worked on Persona 4 Arena too, just see the cutscenes before final fight of Yu Narukami's story mode.
... Dat movie
Welcome back GlaDOS.

Heck, I think Privateer Press forgot about it too.
If you want the true LOTR experience, you must watch all of the extended cuts... 11hrs 22min. It's totally worth it.
Just got back from seeing the Hobbit myself. It was not only awesome, but it was also very well done . Having seen it, I believe splitting it into 3 movies is now justified. Also, all of the subtle little continuity nods to the LotR trilogy are excellent.
That out of the way, I am going to see that Pacific Rim thing. I don't care how many continents I have to budge to make it happen, I will find a way to watch Glados as the AI of a giant Mecha fight alien Godzilla wannabees.
GlaDos driving a giant mech...
...oh hell, yes !
That Pacific Rim movie looks like shit, but I will still see it and love every second of it... And if Glados controls a big ass mech I will go apeshit. Also, neurotoxin and potatoes have to be involved. And birds...
And the extended versions add 3 hours to that marathon...Still worth it.
Don't worry TheApex, I didn't even watched The Lord of The Rings Trilogy either. I guess I should watch The hobbit as well.
>>brightwarriorz It cant be shit, Del toro is directing, and everything his spanish hands touch turn to gold.
