Lilah ,'Not Fade Away'
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.
There were a number of women wearing Evenstar pendants, and a few women who were dressed in long, flowy, Arwen-style dresses. It was kind of nice to not be the geekiest one in the crowd, for a change!
Did you have an almost life-sized plush doll of Frodo sitting on your shoulders, to accesorized your cloak made out of a green flannel blanket? That took the geek prize at the Seattle performance.
Oh my.
Please tell me they took it off for the performance.
Also, either I wasn't paying attention, or Houston is just not geeky, because I didn't see any displays of geekery.
Beverly, I know exactly what you mean. He has such a gorgeous, plaintive voice.
I think I need to go home and listen to all three soundtracks in a row tonight.
Giggling at the plush Frodo doll, although personally, I think I'd prefer a plush Gandalf (who is, incidentally, the only action figure of any kind that I own).
Please tell me they took it off for the performance.
Er ... would you prefer to live in blissful ignorance?
Oh, my god. Then please tell me the people sitting behind him/her smacked him/her. Or offered some pointed comments.

I have no idea. We were up in one of the balconies, and the insane person was down on the main floor.
I also saw women wearing flowing I'm an Elf Princess, dammit! dresses without proper underpinnings. Now, I know for a fact that IaEPd dresses can look lovely on plus-size figures, but they NEED to be worn with a bra. Honest.
Oh, and then there were the giggly teen girls who had made themselves Hobbit feet by gluing curly fake hair on the tops of flip-flops. B for effort, C- for actual execution.
Okay! Now, the the Official LOTR Movie Website says that RotKEE can be pre-ordered starting October 1st with the release date set for December 14th.
(I found the announcement over at TORN.)
Yaaaaayyyyyy!
Damn, it's gonna be hard to wait until Dec. 25, though. But it's so close to Christmas that I can't really justify buying it for myself. Gah. I hope at least one of my friends will be less frugal than I am...
It's my Xmas present to myself!
It's only going to be hard for me to have the money -- given that it's on-sale the DAY BEFORE my payday.
