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".

move out and draw fire

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."

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

That's kind of eerie. Not what I would want staring out at me from my shelf at night.

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

Okay, see, that's just wrong. Dye the thing gold or something, will you?

I just don't get them selling it all. It's EVIL folks.

Now, a different ring with a nice phrase in Elvish, that would be lovely.

That's probably exactly what the Dwarf Kings said in their halls of stone just before Sauron showed up with his little gifts.
