You're welcome, sa.
I can't wait to get home and see it myself. (I have no Quicktime here at work.)
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
It's pretty funny. There's a bunch of middle-aged guys in a room shouting and ruckusing and being silly.

Ah. I didn't realize that it was a joke.

It's not--they're making noise for the background of the scene where Frodo's in the Orc tower, to indicate the orcs are, like, having an orc par-tay downstairs.

Hmmm, weren't the orcs massacring each other?
(I suppose that IS an orc par-tay!)
(Why can't I stay awake this afternoon?)

That was later in the scene--it was the shot sweeping up the tower and then focusing in on Frodo waking up.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Matt, does her profile have her email address?
I haven't checked yet Anne... still pondering. Though if someone else wants to give her a heads-up, don't let my wishy washyness put you off.

Home now -- having watched the clip and now can't wait to see an Orc jug band. (They decided to go with that concept, right?)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Orc jug band.
Aw, man! I miss Emmett Otter.
Um, not that there are any otters in the EE.
