Willow ,'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.

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

Still, none of those can beat "There is a shadow and a threat growing in my pants" from FotR.

Keep breathing!

Back in 2000 my brother sent me a bit about a game where you substitute "pants" for a word in a quote from Star Wars. Definitely coffee on the monitor stuff.

"Use the pants, Luke!" "I used to bulls-eye womp-rats in my pants back home." "A tremor in the pants. The last time I felt this was in the presence of my old master."

Points were given for knowing the speakers and re-constructing the original quote. Wish I had a place to post the whole thing, but it's long.

My welcome message when I turn on my phone is "Not idly do the pants of Lorien fall."

If only...

"There is some evil here, that gives them pants, and yet sets its will against our own.

Some award noms just came out: Chicago Film Critics nominations include eight for RotK, with both Sean Astin and Andy Serkis getting Best Supporting Actor nominations (!), and the Visual Effects Society announced their nominations, and RotK got a lot (I didn't count them all), including Sean Astin for Outstanding Performance in an Effects Film, and notice that the RotK nom for Outstanding Character Animation includes Andy Serkis with the techies!

The SAG nominations are being announced tomorrow morning (6:20 am PST, broadcast on the E! channel)--if Sean Astin gets a nom here, there's a good chance that he might snag an Oscar nom as well (Oscar ballots are due this Saturday, and noms are announced on Jan. 27th).
