So who can point me to a site that has lots and lots of screencaps from LOTR? I'm specifically looking for caps from 2T, the scene where the Three Hunters meet the Riders of Rohan.
Any suggestions?

Manflesh, anyone?

Just looking through old posts, and came across this:
Duchovny and Wirth get Hot and Sweaty.
That's a picspam I posted way back in 2005. A set of screengrabs from Red Shoe Diaries, Showtime's softcore sex series. This scene was in the pilot episode, a full-length film which set up the series. Duchovny's character, Jake, goes on to be the bookend narrator for the stories that make up each episode of this anthology series. In these pics, he and the eminently Hot Billy Wirth go at each other in...well, take a look. There are details in the post after the pics.
Since there are a number of you who were not around my journal back when this was posted, I figured you might dig seeing these Slices of Yum.
Enjoy!

Alatriste, Part 1
Thursday, March 29th, 2007 01:23 am.
Here is the first set of screencaps from the film Alatriste. The film stars Viggo Mortensen, Unax Ugalde, and Ariadna Gil, and is based on the books by Arturo Perez Reverte. The film is a pastiche of elements from several of Reverte's books. Viggo plays Capitan Diego Alatriste y Tenorio, Unax plays his ward, Iñigo Balboa, and Ariadna plays Alatriste's lover, the actress Maria de Castro.
As previously noted, the caps will first be posted without comment, so please enjoy these artful images.
( Part One )
Feel free to save and use them if you like. Credit would be nice, since it took a long time to do all this, but not necessary.

Today I'm in the process of uploading 122 screencaps from Viggo's new film, Alatriste, which I reviewed over here.
As I mentioned in my review, one of the things that most impressed me about this film was the artistry of the shots, and how the director, having been an art professor before he started in film, deliberately composed his shots to evoke such painters as Velazquez and El Greco. So I capped the film with an eye toward those painterly shots.
Now, I can present the pictures to you all as they are, with no captions, and let you wander through them on your own. Or I can give you a running commentary on what's happening in the story, which can be either serious or snarky. I can go either way. (Bear in mind that if I get snarky, I may say things that will make it impossible for you to take these characters seriously.) There's also the option of starting with the pics themselves, and then coming back and editing the post later with commentary. It all pretty much boils down to whether you all want to be spoiled just by the pics, or by knowing the actual outline of the story.
So, let's hear from you.

At The Theatre Door
Thursday, September 8th, 2005 02:39 pmI love making screencaps. Ever since I got a computer, I've discovered another way to see films, by looking at the shots and frames individually and learning to appreciate them as works in themselves. Obviously there's great enjoyment in Pictures of Pretty Guys, but for me the real joy occurs when I find something unexpected, a frame that has a particular energy or atmosphere, a singular visual arrangement or line of movement.
In other words, it's truly enchanting to find unique works of art hidden in the current of movement that is a film. I'd like to do a series of posts on such images that I've found, as there've been several that I found arresting, each for different reasons. But for now, I'll stick to this one, which I've found just now:
At The Theatre Door - full version
To my eye this is a singularly artful still. There is a sense of solidity, of reality to it, and each of he subjects has his own focus, his own personality. There are a number of painters I can see in it - some Rembrandt, some Degas, a little Toulouse-Lautrec, others whose names I can't pick out of the air. It actually looks like a painting, with its calm lighting and the story that is hinted at in the arrangement and attitudes of the subjects. Is the little dark-coated figure a beggar? A messenger? Why is the blond man bent over him so? Is it concern, or is he waiting for an answer to a question, or can he just not hear the smaller man very clearly? And is the figure in the foreground listening to them, or is he simply walking past, steeped in his own thoughts?
All of these things contribute to the particularly classical feeling of the image. Indeed, it takes very little effort to transform it into something I would not be surprised to find hanging on a museum wall:
There is drama in this picture, the possibility of an engaging tale.

OK, as promised, here are some hot and slashy pics of David Duchovny and Billy Wirth. These are screencaps from the two-hour pilot of Red Show Diaries. That show was a lot of fun, if a bit tamer than the producers liked to boast, and the pilot gave us the setup for the series framework (Duchovny receives letters from women detailing their sexual adventures).
So here you go. There are a lot of pics behind the cut, and you're welcome to take whatever you like and use it (credit would be nice). Some of these shots were very fast-moving so I picked the best I could get for you. Have fun!
Here's a taste for you all:
( The rest of the hotness... )
