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.

Unfortunately, it's on a Monday. I will be in class. Why they didn't schedule it on a weekend, I don't know...

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Also, as I recall, your average London movie theatre has tickets for L10.50 -- which is something along the lines of $18. For a normal movie. So a trilogy theatre experience might get expensive very quickly.

Well, the tickets were something like six pounds for student concession. Still expensive, but less than I'm going to spend to go to the theater.

Skip class, Dana! What, are you crazy? Yeesh. You know, I'm beginning to question the veracity of your commitment to this fandom.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

It's the first day of class! There are 16 people! I think he'd notice.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

No he won't. It'll be fine!

Okay, maybe he will.

What is the class? Surely there's a way to try to work in a field trip!

Heh. There will be a field trip that day, but it'll probably be the British Museum.

Actually, if they're selling tickets for the shows separately, I could just go to RoTK...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Heh. Okay. Field trip to the British Museum is of the good. RotK is of the good. I cede your fandom cred back to you.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Concession for six pounds isn't bad. The two movies I've gone to in London were eight each, so.

Maybe, I don't know. Closer to the date, I suppose.

Is anyone else worried that Gollum will get even MORE screen time on the extended version DVD?
