I saw lord of the rings on the 19th and all i could thing of was how i wish i was tripping in some parts of the movie. Like when the characters went to the elvish forrest and it was all heavenly. Has anyone else seen the movie and would they think it would be a good movie to trip to? I ask this because there are a shit load of monsters but the special effects are killer. I think the movie would send you to heaven then hell and back again. Anyone else?

Try going while high off some nice bud. I did. Was great. I was 100% into the movie. Not that I wouldn't have been, sober.

Watched Lord of the Rings last night, I was on two grams of mush and smoked a joint before I entered the theatre..
I went with a friend who was also shrooming, after the movie was over neither of us really had any idea what was going on in the movie. I somewhat knew what was going on since I have the read the books, but if someone asked me anyting more then the basic plot of the movie I wouldn't be able to tell you :/

I saw it when it opened on the 19th, and I was thinking, "I wish I had eaten a few grams before I came. This is intense."
I definitely recommend a friendly trip at that movie...at least I plan to make a go of it. But, again, listen to tokes-a-lot. Don't go to a movie (or into any other public place) on your first mushroom trip. Stay home and enjoy it properly.

I just saw it tonight and I was really baked. I probably would have been scared out of my mind if I saw that tripping. The monsters and dark imagery kind of freaked me out a little bit anyway, I don't think I could've handled it tripping. I usually prefer more pleasant and happy inputs, there's no need for that kind of negativity. But to each his own.

Saw it a few min ago actually, so the image of bilbo flipping out and going for the ring is still fresh in my mind. Lemme say, if i were tripping on anything i would have run out of the theater like a wittle bitch. =P but that's just me...if you can handle that kinda shnit fine, more power to ya. Just brings back when i was a little little kid and was scared to death of the hobbit. lol
If you've tripped before i'de say go for it...much neato visuals...if not, well you shouldn't be in public anyway
p.s. did you notice that one of the wizard's fireworks looked exacltly like an amanIta cap? hummmmm

I saw it yesterday sober and was (originally) planning on seeing it a secong time while tripping. However some parts of the movie were pretty intense, so I will have to think about tripping during it.

Yeah I noticed that firework, that was awesome. I though it was hilarious how Gandolf smoked up all the time. One time somebody (I forget) said to him "the ring was under your nose for so long and you never realized? that devil weed must have dulled your wit" or something like that. Plenty of drug references in that move if you look for them.

Saw it last night. That film is amazing...special effects are mofoing incredible....Could never watch it tripping though, that would be damn frightening. There's probably more dark/scary imagery in there that positive. Damn good though.

Some drug references in LOTR
1. Bilbo and Gandalf sitting on a hill smoking a pipe before the party. Bilbo says to Gandalf "This is the best weed in the whole South Farthing." Then Gandalf blows a smoke-sailship through Bilbo's smoke-ring.
2. Gandalf staring into the fire at Bilbo's house after Bilbo leaves, mumbling to himself while taking constant tokes off his pipe.
3. When Merry and Pipping meet up with Frodo and Sam and they all fall down the hill. The conversation goes:
"That was just a shortcut....."
"A shortcut to what?"
"MUSHROOMS!"
Then they all gather around some psilocybe looking mushrooms all excitedly, examining them, and harvesting some on the spot.
I think Gandalf is just under a bunch of stress, and needs to smoke a lot of Bilbo's 'weed' to keep his calm vibe going.

I went to see it a second time this weekend, and I am even more willing to dose at the movie now. The imagery was so much fun...not to mention the mental things going on.

I just saw LOTR last night........awesome! Most worthwhile movie that I have ever watched.
Referring to a post before: Sarumon says to Gandolf something like "Your love of the [devil?] weed has dulled your wits..."
Yeah throughout the movie the GOOD guys were smoking the weed.
Yummy yum, now I want to carve myself a wood pipe like they had and go get some weed!
I haven't read any of the books, but a little later tonight I'm going to start reading The Hobbit.
MUSHROOMS!

"your love of the halflings' leaf has dulled your wits."
And yeah, I love those kickass pipes. Every good guy in the movie seemed to have one. There is even a nice close-up of Strider's bowl (hmm..that doesn't look like tobacco to me) when he is tokin' up in The Prancing Pony.

Just saw it while tripping... the scariest thing ever.. It diddnt help that I was cold and sick .. it was just amazingly scary... I was and am still so freaked out... I hate watching movies in movies theathres.
Well the main reason it was bad was that people were surrounding me and it kept feeling like they were orcs and god it was freaky..

I'm not sure about all these drug referances... Tolkein wrote it many many years ago, it seems more like a coincidence that they call it weed. Besides, ask most any old person of he smoked a pipe. If he didn't, he knows 20 guys who did, and I doubt many of them were smoking ganja... If you've read the books the mushrooms are fairly obviously culinary, not hallucinogenic, no matter what they look like in the movie. I guess I could be wrong though.
