Oops, sorry...probably should have mentioned that (kicks self sharply in the ankle).
Book: Captain, you mind if I say grace? Mal: Only if you say it out loud.

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.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Anyone familiar w/ this?
The link is Leonard Nimoy's rendition of "Bilbo Baggins." It's been mentioned here a few times over the years.

Yeah...the Buffistas seem like the sort of group that would appreciate that. I'm now going to go watch Fellowship on TV (Canadian CBC)

Art Crawl!!!
I watched RotKEE at a friend's house yesterday.
This is a friend with a tv much bigger than the one I'd watched it on before.
You know that scene where Sam tells Frodo something like " See there is still beauty somewhere in the world
?" In the book he was seeing a star in the sky -- but when I watched it on the 13" screen tv all I could see was a sunset-colored cloud. On the bigger screen? I could see the evening star.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Watching the RotK EE extras made me homesick, so I watched the TTT EE extras. Which, fueled by Nyquil, took on a bizarrely surreal quality. I may put in all the EE extras, from FotR to RotK, tomorrow, and just hit "play all."

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Sumi: Yes.
We did our Rings-a-thon today (plus Easter eggs, which was, to quote Elijah Wood, "Fucking Awsome"). I agree that the way they did the houses of healing was wicked confusing for the timelines.
I have other thoughts, but not really at the moment.
Oh yeah, could have done without the drinking game

The drinking game pays off in the extras, though, with an offhand comment from Billy.

Will have to look out for that, then
