Didn't Gil-galad take over pretty much as of the drowning of Beleriand?
I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

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".

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Turgon (G-g's daddy ahd hey! original owner of Glamdring! How about that?) died in 511 First Age, Thranduil left Lindon some time in the Second Age. So sayeth Foster, anyhow.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Frodo and Sam aren't on my cutie! list, but the Orc costumes pushed 'em real close.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Just got done watching Charlie Rose, where he spent 25 minutes on RotK with Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, and Andy Serkis. A very smart promotion for Academy members to watch (their ballots are due next Saturday), since they first discussed Peter Jackson and why he was a good director on set and his dedication to the pictures, and then went into the visual effects aspects of Gollum, and then the relationship between Frodo and Sam. All of the clips shown (except for the trailer) focused on the Frodo/Sam/Gollum storyline, and were well-chosen for Oscar material for EW and SA. No veering into war discussions, as happened last year with Viggo.
The rest of the hour is being spent with Alec Baldwin, who's shilling for his own BSA nomination for The Cooler.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I caught the Baldwin, missed the earlier part. Dammit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Something came up, and PJ wasn't able to be in NYC this weekend, meaning that not only did DH not get to interview him yesterday (he still got Serkis, Astin, and Hill), but his live presentation at Lincoln Center tomorrow has been changed to a via-satellite presentation instead.
Bah. (So I'm returning my ticket. I can watch him on TV at home for free, and right now, I need the $100 more.)
