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.

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

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

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.

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.

More early sightings of the EE in NYC:

Just writing in to let all ringers know about another (and cheaper actually, @ 34.99 rather than the $39.99 mentioned from the video storein the previous post. The place I was lucky enough to come across is called Extraordinary DVD, and its located on W 14th St. between 6th and 5th.

This is also from the TORN website.

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.

move out and draw fire

But it is coming up on Chirstmas time....

And I'd possibly be less offended about Emmett Otter being in ROTK than I was about the drinking contest.

I skimmed the Newsweek review of the EE and they said that like the other EE's it makes a better movie than the theatrical release.

Well, we guessed it would, didn't we?
