You know, I found fwfr.com browsing my brother's old college message board archives from 2001, and then two days after I post this rare, obscure find, the site wins a Webby award. Now I look like I get all my links off Boing Boing.
Mercy is the mark of a great man. Guess I'm just a good man. Well, I'm all right.

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.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Hee! The latest collection from Foxtrot is titled, "Orlando Bloom Has Ruined Everything." The cover is of Jason and two other LotR-costumed fanboys surrounded by a theater full of drooling teenaged girls.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I can sympathize, as someone who went to a weekend matinee showing of Back to the Future III unaware that Michael J. Fox's ass would be featured in close-up early in the film. I think the combined squeals knocked birds flying overhead out of the air.

Yeah, the second time I saw ROTK the crowd was me, 6 cow-orkers, and about 40 teenage girls. Who SQUEEED when Legolas appears in Frodo's doorway at the end. (Which covered our snickering and rude comments).
Just watched ROTK EE again. It made even less sense this time. But I realize that these movies aren't movies for me - I appreciate them not as I would a normal movie, but as a group effort of a bunch of artists. As movies, they are flawed. As authentic re-creations of a world that never existed, they are peerless.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yeah, we plan to. I really need to pick a date and get tickets for that.

An interesting article in the NY Times about Peter Jackson's suit against New Line over the profits from LotR.
