Host ,'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.
I wonder what they'll make when the show FotR on Dinner and a Movie?
Perhaps lembas bread and then some *more* lembas bread!
The newest issue of Newsweek annoyed me with its blurb on the extended version of RotK - "An hour of additional footage means more suffering in Middle Earth." When did the wise Newsweek reviewers abandon reason for madness?
So the new trailer is going to be 6 minutes long?!?!!!
I can't wait. I only hope I can play it on my computer.
The Life section of USA Today has a rundown of what's in the extended RotK. Bigassed spoiler re: Saruman.
TORN has this link to the RotKEE trailer (short one) which is the only one I've seen so far that works well with my slow dial-up connection. I actually got picture and sound to be in synchrony.
When we did dinner-movie with FOTR, I made Beef Wellington. It seemed hobbity, and there are mushrooms in it, and you've got the New Zealand reference with Wellington.
For ROTK, I'm thinking I need to invent a cocktail called "Flaming Yoni of Doom."
Hee.
Or perhaps something volcano related?
Or like -- a crown rib roast and something with King Crab?
Look! It's a talking, plush Gollum doll!
That's kind of eerie. Not what I would want staring out at me from my shelf at night.

Emmett LOVED his talking Saruman action figure when he was 5.
