LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

Where did the elephant army come from, what is its origin?
From the lands to the south of Mordor-- Near and Far Harad. And I suspect the men riding them were much more cocky than the orcs because they were riding giant elephants, and the orcs were not.
I know I'd be more cocky when riding a giant elephant, though I'd worry if I saw a girlie elf-dude anywhere on the battlefield.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He was NOT girlie.
Except in the elegant killer sense of the word, I suppose.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
You can't be a metrosexual when you're crushing on the King to Be and accepting the marriage proposal of your dwarven lovemuffin.
IJS.
Big *gay* elf-dude, but not girly.

"I know I'd be more cocky when riding a giant elephant, though I'd worry if I saw a girlie elf-dude anywhere on the battlefield."
How true, in a way.
The way Jackson portrayed Legolas in the trilogy, we get treated to at least two acts of badassery from that man. In LOTR, we get introduced to rapid-fire archery and the ability to see far off into the distance. Then in 2T, we get treated to precision engagement standoff rapid-fire archery and equestrian stunts. Then in this movie he takes on the elephant.
Was I the only one having a Hoth battle flashback during the fight against the big elephants, with riders of Rohan being the snowspeeders and the elephants the AT-ATs?
I have reached high geekdom with this post. Somebody behold that.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

See above: "Did we learn nothing from the invasion of Hoth?"

Pfft.
Found (but haven't looked at) the Gimli/Legolas (no not like that!) clip that was on the National Geographic special but (thankfully) not in RotK. I really hope it pops up on the EE, though.
