Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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".

Metrosexual elf-dude.

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?"

The evil is this way?

That's a big geekdom. None of my friends has a geekdom that big.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Dudes, I called the AT-AT thing first in this thread, thankyewverramuch.
