I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'


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.

Cool tidbit from RotK: Craig Parker, who played Haldir in both FotR and TTT, does the voices of both the Orc who berates the "pirate scum" (actually, Aragorn et al) for being late to the battle, "as usual," as well as the voice of Gothmog, the pig-faced Orc commander!

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

I did see his name in the credits, but didn't see what voices he did. I also didn't see the "cute ____ [Gondorian?] children" credit or any of the other cameos. I don't read as quickly as I used to.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I didn't see a Cute Gondorian Children credit either, and I was looking for it all three times.

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

That's cool. I'm going to have to pay attention the next time I see the movie. (re. Craig Parker)

Art Crawl!!!

I just recognized the Jackson kids.

That's sad. . . isn't it?

Do they get credits? They don't have any lines!

I'm pretty sure I saw the credit for the cute gondorian children when I saw it last.

They were credited as "Cute [Hobbit/Rohan] Children" in FotR and TTT, but I didn't see them in the RotK credits at all. But maybe I just missed it.

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

They get credits in all the other movies, so I don't know why not this one. I didn't see any of the other cameo-people in credits, though.

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

I recognised the Jackson kids twice. There's no such thing as too much attention.

How in HELL is creepy Viggo #10 and Orlando #76? What sort of world is this we live in?
