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.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

It's one of Bilbo's songs, isn't it?

I think so -- sung before they've even left the Shire.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread,
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We'll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed.

There's more but it didn't show up in The Steward of Gondor. And the nomination, Yay Billy! That's my favorite track on the soundtrack.

I've been playing the RotK game on Playstation 2 and it's kicking my ass. I'm stuck on the Pelennor Fields.

I think I'm going to see RotK for the fourth time later this week. My sister and my mom haven't seen it yet and they want to. Must remember not to cry or I'll get teased mercilously.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I'm stuck on the Pelennor Fields.

Wait till morning. Some guys show up with a bunch of horses.

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?

No. And Legolas totally did a Luke on that one big elephant with the one elf demolition job.

Love this picture of Aragorn and Anduril.

One of the TORN reports says that Royd Tolkien was one of the guys on beacon duty at Minas Tirith and that he was somewhere else too (can't remember where.)

And apparently Elijah Wood will be on the Daily Show tonight. Wonder what weird personal habits he'll reveal on that show?

This was from TORN too:

Bloom & Mortensen on 'Hotties' List 1/07/04, 1:45 pm EST - Xoanon

Eowyn writes: Viggo Mortensen is #10 on VH1's 100 Hottest Hotties list! The show will air on Friday January 9 on VH1, at 10 pm EST. By the way Orlando Bloom was also on the countdown at #76, and that show will probably be repeated over the course of this week.

(I bet they're repeat the whole thing Sunday too.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Btw, did everybody see Rob in the Get Fuzzy comic strip wearing a WETA t-shirt in the last week?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Not for the first time either. He wears a lot of Soccer and Rugby team shirts too.

eta Hey! That's what PJ should do - a Get Fuzzy movie. WETA can do the animals and Andy Sirkis can do Bucky!
