PIPPIN: I never said he was my dearest love, and yes, he will save me. That I know.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Two great tastes, tasting great together.

WITCH KING: Then why are you smiling?
EOWYN: Because I know something you don’t know.
WITCH KING: And what is that?

Oh, my favorite bit by far is this:
DENETHOR: I am the Dread Steward Denethor. There will be no survivors!
GUARD 1: Now?
GUARD 2: Not yet.
DENETHOR: My men are here. I am here. But soon you will not be here!
GUARD 1: Now?!
GUARD 2: Light him!

Some good news:
Many of the sets and plasticine characters used for the filming of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit turned out to be the only survivors of Monday's fire at a Bristol, England warehouse that destroyed the rest of Aardman Animation's sets, props, storyboards, and characters, the company said today (Monday). The Were-Rabbit artifacts, it disclosed, were saved because they were being exhibited elsewhere in England (including the Imperial War Museum) to promote the movie. Director Nick Park said that he had been carrying the Wallace & Gromit characters from the latest film in his suitcase. He told the London Sun: "They have been going with me on a world tour. I keep them safe in a special suitcase. They were with me at my house when the fire happened. ... I rang up the office this morning to find out how the film had done in the US. I was told the great news that it was Number One and then they said there was some bad news as well." In reporting on the aftermath of the fire the London Times observed today: "Not since Ben Hur's chariot went up in smoke when Cecil B DeMille's original wooden studio caught fire has the film world suffered such a loss."

Well, that's some nice good news. I'm also VERY glad to hear that Nick was carrying Wallace and Gromit themselves with him at the time.
I think it also says a little something that this is being compared to Cecil B. DeMille losing all his stuff.

I saw an interview with Nick Park yesterday where he said that he really wasn't all that bothered, and couldn't understand why everyone was making such a fuss, because when measured against what had just happened in Pakistan it was really nothing at all. A lovely and sensible chap, it seems.

AUDIENCE: What?
PETER JACKSON: Frodo and Sam don’t get burned up by the lava. I’m explaining to you because you looked nervous.

They've announced the new James Bond. And he's blond. And I've never seen him in anything.
