Alright, I'm supposed to write about my weekend. Well, on Saturday my parents actually believed I was really sick. I was; I couldn't believe they didn't think I was faking. So, I just was in bed, watching movies, and doing homework. I watched Lord of the Rings (and reread it), Bedtime Stories, Forever Strong (!!!!!!), and Lord of the Rings special features.
Did you know that for LOTR all the weaponry and armor was hand made. Almost everything in the movie was. They paid a lot attention to detail. Mot to mention they filmed all three movies nonstop. I liked hearing about making Hobbiton in the Shire. They got permission to use a farm, built some hobbit holes, raised vegetables for about a year, and filmed the shire at Bag End.
My current favorite movie is Forever Strong. Larry Gelwix is one of my heroes; this movie is about his rugby team at the same high school my grandfather went to. I especially love the scenes where they do the Haka. Listening to the "Gelwixisms", man, I love that guy. Because I was sick I couldn't listen to him speak Sunday night. Sigh I hate being sick.
