The cap in Kathy's fourth link is the RotK clip in my triptych frame from Trilogy Tuesday. Of course it's so tiny I never saw Pippin in bed--I barely made out Gandalf.
Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

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.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

OMG. That is too funny. Especially since they always joke about how people used to get them confused during the press for the first two movies. Ha. Ha. Poor Mippin.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Thanks for the links to the pictures. John Noble is almost completely unrecognizable from the movies. Amazing.

How much did I love Billy's grace and brevity after Sean's embarrassing grandstanding? I also loved Bernard Hill's little thank you to the "pyramid of folks who make possible what the actors do" speech, and John Rhys bumping Sean out of the way to introduce the mercifully brief-spoken Shea. And Billy!
I was okay with Sean's sentiment, but he should have gracefully acknowledged the first round of applause he got, and stepped aside for someone else to speak, in my opinion. "I do not doubt his heart," but "seizing the opportunity" to speak at length about other than the movie just seems thoughtless and rude.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can I get a synopsis? What did Sean talk about instead?

Art Crawl!!!
I loved Billy and his kilt and his sweet thanks.
And I suppose Sean Astin warned the others -- otherwise why would Bernard Hill introduce him that way?
And I'm so so glad that they won!!!
Also -- that poster of Gandalf on the balcony while Pippin sleeps -- that's NEW FOOTAGE, isn't it?
Also, I was looking at my trilogy soundtrack cards -- first I made an all Aragorn trilogy (foamy) then I looked through the cards and realized that TRAGICALLY they did not have a Legolas insert for FotR. I also think that some of the un-released footage may be Legolas in Egypt - - because the RotK Legolas insert card appears to have pyramids in the background.

Expressed concern about runaway production.
While it's a very large concern for SAG, and I agree, the irony of him saying this while accepting an award for a film made in New Zealand with an international cast was apparently lost on him.
