I propose we close LoTR.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seconded, but I'll be paying attention to see if the people who actually post there care enough to keep it. (By which I mean, I'll second anything, but am still sensitive about making decisions about Other People's Threads.)

Well, I'm okay with it -- the LotR talk is light enough that it can fit into Movies or Natter without difficulty.
I guess I second it too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was thinking there was going to be one more DVD release with new material, and that closing should wait until a couple months after that.
But when is it due? Am I hallucinating its very existence?
Speaking of threads and closing -- did the revival of Book Club work?

I think you're right, but it may not be 'til next year.

Couldn't find anything about the extra-special super ee of LOTR, but look at this cool 3-d puzzle of the Citadel of Minas Tirith!
And the complete soundtrack recording of FotR is coming out on Tuesday.

I would second the closing of LOTR.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I haven't been in that thread in ages, so I'm fine w/ closing it.

I found this post Kathy A "LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'"." Jan 14, 2005 1:26:56 pm PST which talks about potential ultimate DVD sets. If there's no calendar for new activity, I vote close, but don't archive, so it can be reopened if there's anything that's going to provoke a flurry.

Works for me - are we still looking for seconds, though? Count me, to get the discussion started anyway.
