Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-04-19

I'm at Movie Madness Video (4320 SE Belmont, SE 43rd Ave., Portland). http://4sq.com/8fmLBN #
Check it out, the "Ryan as Batman" doll that @ms_charmaine is making: http://twitpic.com/1f0c64 #
So Movie Madness didn't have any copies of FotR on Blu-ray left, but I did pick up Two Towers and Return of the King, and the Bakshi 'toon. #
We're walking down to @whiffies for some post-bikeride sweets! Then it's time for some HD Tolkien action. #
I know this isn't saying anything profound, but what if the gender roles were swapped in last nights SNL skit with Tina Fey and the kid? #
I'm at Whiffies Fried Pies (1200 SE Hawthorne Blvd, at SE 12th Ave, Portland). http://4sq.com/aM8BU #
@Vactor Check it out, the "Ryan as Batman" doll that @ms_charmaine is making: http://twitpic.com/1f0c64 #
Getting ready to watch Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings on Blu-ray, I am pretty excited right now. #
So the picture in this new Blu-ray is much brighter, more colorful. I'm switching back and forth between this and the old DVD. #
There do seem to be a lot of little white specks in the picture. Dust? Definitely not perfect. #ralphbakshilordoftherings #
@RevGWCSean how many times have you seen it now? in reply to RevGWCSean #
I think what's really lacking in the Bakshi Lord of the Rings is the sense of geography that Peter Jackson captured with New Zealand. #
Middle Earth was clearly defined in Jacksons Trilogy, whereas in Bakshi's it feels disconnected, and vague. #
@FatboyRoberts yes! The score is so much fun, and the voice casting is a lot of fun. Some of the same cast from the BBC Radio production. in reply to FatboyRoberts #
@RevGWCSean did you see it in IMAX 3D? I still haven't seen it, but I hear that's the way to go. in reply to RevGWCSean #
I forgot to show off my Zapp Brannigan that I scored from Missing Link. I was hoping for Zoidberg though… http://twitpic.com/1f0wyf #

In "Oh! You Pretty Things" is David Bowie singing about mutants, when he says "gotta make way for the Homo Superior"? #
Dang, I just put in the Two Towers Blu-ray, and I gotta say, extended or not, this movie looks freaking gorgeous. (cont) http://tl.gd/r549h #
@MattGoldberg no problem, I just listened to the Clash of the Titans episode today, it was a lot of fun. Will definitely continue listening. in reply to MattGoldberg #
@FatboyRoberts I think the EE has some character moments for Smeagol/Gollum that make it better for me. in reply to FatboyRoberts #
@FatboyRoberts I guess if I had to choose between the two in a "which would I want to see in the theater again" I'd pick the theatricals… in reply to FatboyRoberts #
@FatboyRoberts but being able to watch it at my own pace at home, I just can't get enough. in reply to FatboyRoberts #
@FatboyRoberts yeah, @Rudie_Obias always complains about switching discs, but I love that stuff too. in reply to FatboyRoberts #
This still has to be one of my favorite paintings of Batman ever. http://bit.ly/ac9RJL #

Dudes, Treebeard looks freaking detailed as hell on Blu-ray. #
One of my favorite Elseworlds books growing up, was a what if Batman became Green Lantern, In Darkest Knight: http://bit.ly/9Sn0Zw #
Knowing that they built everything on that little rock make the helicopter shots swooping around Edoras so artistically rewarding. #
