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.
John, you are a pimp.
I haven't been to the New Line store in like a year, and had just assumed it was all the same stuff. Now, thanks to your handy links, it turns out they have new stuff I just have to have, or have to buy for someone for Christmas.
I've got paperback 3-vols sets for reading, except for a 1-vol book that I kept at the office to resolve disputes there. It seemed less geeky than having a 3-vol set at work. Yeah, I know, my cow-orkers and I were having fights over whether Aragorn had served in the Minas Tirith military, or why the three Elven rings didn't corrupt their bearers like the One Ring did, and I'm worried about my desk looking geeky.
Just pre-ordered the ROTK EE for my DH for Xmas...now I need a 50" plasma screen to go with it. It's the little accessories that make a gift complete.

Um, call my lawyer, officer, I ain't talking.

I KNOW! I got all uh, excited when I saw that stuff and where else would I run, not walk, with intel like that?

Excellent workplace dorkage. Much jealousy here. I have one guy I can talk football with. The rest? Lumpy. Lumpy who? Lumpy wid.
Random thread-butting:
In Abergwili, where I go to work every Friday, I stumbled across this site and was so excited because it looked like that scene from LOTR.
Ha! That's awesome. I remember being very excited when I visited the Drakensburg Mountains in South Africa, because they looked very much like the Misty Mountains.
I keep stumbling over Tolkein references here in Wales--Arwen, for an example, is probably a female version of the Welsh male Arwen. It's kind of neat.
London Trilogy Showing.
I can't tell if it's the EE Trilogy though.
Also, the movie exhibit is in Sydney starting on December 18th.
Oh, my god, I'm going to be in London then...
it'll probably be sold out by the time I get there.
