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.

I made an LotR screensaver and I just sit and watch it.

It's sick, isn't it?

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

How many Arwens does it take to change a light bulb?
None. She’s fallen mysteriously ill and doesn’t have the energy.

The proper answer to this should have been: Just one, but it takes a long time since she's moving in slow motion.

Thanks for all the fish.

Or maybe something mentioning the thick layer of vaseline covering every light source.

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

Or -- none: the lightbulb, like the world, changes while she is embroidering in Rivendell.

Do you guys think that both this and this are in the Houses of Healing. Because I can see why the second one might be at Edoras -- but why would it be? You know -- the ram's head looks very Rohirrim. . .

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

All the Edoras stuff has horses, I don't recall seeing any Ram icons.

Yes, but why would they use a ram in Minas Tirith?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Something to do with the horn that Boromir carried that I can't think of the name of? That washed up on the shore split in twain. That might have been made from a ram's horn, no?

It's an extremely thin connection to Gondor, though.

Sumi, canonically both those scenes should be in Minas Tirith. But it's the movie, so anything goes.

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 sorry that they won't have the Bergil/Ioreth/Aragorn scene. I adore snippy-about-his-education Aragorn.
