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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I think the early scene that sumi referenced is after the opening scene with Frodo and Sam, when they

Oh, man. I love that scene in the book.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Yeah, I saw that bit (from the screencap) in the promo someone had up. I continue to feel that they didn't get my Eowyn onto the screen, and it makes me sad. Miranda Otto's version is... I dunno. Fragile, rather than brittle. Too warm.

Yay for the scene coming back at all, mind you.

They've added a celebratory scene from Endor at the end, Liese. You're better off not know--oh, crap.

Your Eowyn is my Eowyn, Katie. She shouldn't have cringed before the Witch-King.

In celebration of the upcoming ROTKEE release, I give you a very funny picture from this year's Oscar red carpet!

And some people persist in wondering how slashy rumors about Elijah and Dominic get started...

I think she cringed from the pain in her arms from beheading the Fell Beast. (At least that is what I got from my most recent re-watch.. . my most recent rewatch also showed me Legolas leaping over the wall to get ahead in the run for the Bridge of Khazad-Dum. . . how had I missed that the quatrillian times I've watched it before?)
