Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

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.

There are scans of a great article by Empire Magazine here (scroll down a few entries to the thumbnails). It looks like it's probably a compilation of previous interviews over the past three years, but there are definitely some new quotes that I hadn't seen before.

Not to get your hopes too high, Susan--it looks like it might be just a flash of him, but it is new footage, and not a flashback, like Pippin's memory of his death .

Oh, and I just looked at the Amazon entry for the EE--Lawrence Makaore is listed as being on the cast commentary, along with the usual group!

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

TORN has a download of the six-minute trailer, which is so, so great. It's .mov. I believe this feeling is called happiness.

Hey, cool! And Kathy, your whitefont has me bouncing and squeeing, especially Sam seeing the star. How can I wait these last two weeks?!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

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

Given his ambitions towards world domination, color me not surprised. :)

Lawrence Makaore

That's the person on the RotKEE list that I was excited about!

Kate, that is really one of my favorite moments in the book. It's such a wonderful demonstration of how Sam has evolved throughout the story, but stayed true to his essential self. He recognizes the beauty and takes heart in the smallest of things, and remains, as Gandalf calls him in an early draft of RotK, "Hope Unquenchable."

I like that Legolas appears to have actual lines in the EE. I feel like he's had almost no real dialogue since TTT.
