Lindsey: Why--why did you... Lorne: One last job. You're not part of the solution, Lindsey. You never will be. Lindsey: You kill me? A flunky?! I'm not just...Angel...kills me. You...Angel... Lorne: Good night, folks.

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 believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers

I would be extremely pleased to see extended Eowyn/Faramir interaction, but I have my doubts this will happen

I've read on several fansites - one was AICN, but of course now I can't find the link - that there will be extended E/F. Apparently parts of the Houses of Healing sequence, plus their wedding scene, were filmed & have a good chance of being in the EE.

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

Oh yeah, one other thing I want: Faramir waking up asking "What does the king command?" It only really has the proper impact if other Gondorians are in the room, and can gasp dramatically, but I'll be happy enough if --I expect they will -- work up a parallel between Boromir's death and Faramir's return-from-death, both with Strider attending.

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

I like those dating maxims. Sadly true.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy became the most nominated film series in Academy Award history with 30 nominations, surpassing both the Godfather trilogy (28) and the Star Wars franchise (21).

Jackson said he had just finished editing the Extended Edition of RotK and that it was 4 hours and 10 minutes

RotK snippets. Go. Get your sap on.

Oh, and rewatching the end of the coronation scene, I'm remembering a post I saw on LiveJournal, in which someone said that she wants to make an icon of the four hobbit actors, standing on stage at the Oscars after RoTK wins best picture, with the caption "You bow to no one."
