What's the name of the mountain that the Fellowship tries to cross in FoTR before they're forced to go through Moria?
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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".

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Caradhras. It's got a bunch of different namesin the book btu I'm pretty sure that's the only name it gets in the movie.

Thanks. I knew it was vaguely like that, but I was missing a few letters.

Redhorn is another name.

I can't even.
The Elves call it Caradhras the Cruel and men call it Redhorn (see also the Redhorn pass they are trying to reach).
Apparently, the dwarvish name is Barazinbar.
ETA: way x-posty. Why am I distracted by work when trying to post on important Tolkien issues, I ask you?!!1

After Frodo finishes his book and passes it on to Sam, Sam adds to it, doesn't he?
I've abused more people for this paper, I swear.

Yes -- Sam finishes the book and it goes to his heirs.

What exactly does Sam add? In the movie, it seems like Frodo finishes the Lord of the Rings story, but I guess he couldn't actually write about anything that happened after he left.

I think that there is more stuff about his family -- and about Merry and Pippin and their families.
I think that one of Sam's daughters goes to Minas Tirith to be a Lady-in-Waiting to Queen Arwen, for example.
And I think that Elanor marries Pippin's son Faramir.

I'm planning to reread these after the RoTK EE comes out, I swear.
Thanks.
