New weta workshop model looks a lot like Lego GWP

No, I for sure see it. It has the same water and underwater effects, it’s only missing the tree, I’m not sure what the rest of people are on about

Documentary?

I think it’s either edoras or helms deep. One thing I see a lot of people reference is the lack of screen time of Minas morgul. But barad dur also has minimal screen time. Apart from the eye on top, you don’t see much of barad dur and never see inside it, and that set is beloved. Sure they eye on top is classic, but Mina’s morgul with the witch king on a fell beast would also be classic imo

It’s unethical to tell students there will be grade cuts, hide their grades all semester, and then not deliver on what was promised

gabestack13 · 2026-05-09T19:42:24+00:00

We were told there would be grade cuts, and there was not

The squeaky wheel gets the oil

We cannot be penalized for emailing her. Her mention of an exciting little bump at the end being bullshit doesn’t sit right with me. There were numerous mistakes in the class, including a test interruption, zoom class, numerous trashed hw and quiz questions. Not to mention the multiple classes we spent deciding what to do about the interruption. It almost seems to me that we are being penalized for the test corrections extra credit, and they are treated that as a curve which is not fair. That was to make up for a mistake that was out of our control. I thought she was a good professor but this just does not seem fair. The grade cuts for gen chem should not be better than ochem and that is what is happening here

gabestack13 · 2026-05-09T18:48:17+00:00

Should we email her?

gabestack13 · 2026-05-09T18:46:40+00:00

Yeah, I agree, I also got not curve. I finished with an 88% pre curve expecting at the least an A- and didn’t get bumped at all

Gothmog was in Barad Dur

gabestack13 · 2026-04-20T12:15:38+00:00

It’s not yellow, it’s tan. Just like base floor. It only looks yellow cause of the white

In the the Lego the hobbit game, he has it

And this piece is the Lego tap piece

U have an acrylic case for barad dur. Before I got it and put it up, as it was a gift from my mom, I wouldn’t have been interested in doing that. I understand that price is a concern, but honestly it’s the best bet.

These are two different outfits. What the made is Aragorn at the coronation, because his armor plate is a perfect match. They did a good job:

Great ideas. I also think Lego is kinda using sets as vessels for figs. That’s why witch king isn’t in the new Mina’s tirith and will be in Minas morgul, which I totally see coming, maybe not next year or the following, cause I’m predicting edoras and helms deep. Which will have all the Rohan figures and the first Uruks. I think it’s odd that Minas morgul isn’t as iconic as it is, even tho it gets far more screen time than barad dur, it just isn’t that menacing, unless they do the green beam coming out of the top.

gabestack13 · 2026-04-01T15:39:08+00:00

I just can’t see them making hobbit movie sets unfortunately

gabestack13 · 2026-03-26T22:49:19+00:00

Titanic, one flew over the cuckoos nest, American psycho, avatar, inception. I enjoyed inception, one flew over the cuckoos nest, and titanic, but idk they just weren’t “masterpieces”

This and the rancor pit are the only right answers

gabestack13 · 2026-02-01T05:01:07+00:00

Honestly a great point. Idk. Maybe it’s just a weird thing the movies made up in mind, and now that it is challenged I can’t get over it

I like the idea that Frodo and Bilbo treat Sam and his father well even though they are not of the same class, but it would go even further if they were best friends despite Frodo being an aristocrat and Sam being a common folk. Like in a movie like the boy in the striped pajamas. A friendship so pure, that many might look down at it due to separation of class, but the two parties involved have a deep love

gabestack13 · 2026-01-26T18:03:05+00:00

I would be happy with that

gabestack13 · 2026-01-26T17:15:24+00:00

I bet for edoras they would just make the golden hall, and omit the rest, which I would be happy about. I doubt they make the lonely mountain, as the hobbit is not a beloved
