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.
Geek bottom, Plei? I found myself nodding and thinking, "That does make sense, when you think about it. I mean, mithril, tough, but tough enough against a giant spider with all sort of pluses for a sneak attack from the rear?"
I need to play more D&D.
HA!
"DM: It's a special spider. Now roll the save."
Scotch out my nose.
Shit. Just rereading that got spit on my monitor.
It's like all those hours in the game store debating the D&D alignments of comic book superheroes.
I think we came up with Batman as neutral evil.
What, you think he's sane enough to play on the Good side? If they had a category Psychotic Good, I'd go for it.
edit: and to take this back on topic, our showing of RotK was sponsored by the game store Hubby used to manage. God, I miss those whacked-out geeks. I speak their language, and they speak mine. We got a preview of SpiderMan 2, and after it was over someone in the back yelled "Jason, are you happy now?" and Jason, resident Spidey freak and sitting in the very front row of the theatre yelled "Yes! God, yes!" It was like sitting in a very large living room with all my bestest buds.
There is the great watchtower of SomeGuyIForget
"This was the great watchtower of Amon Sul."
Sorry, Jess. I don't have a transcript handy, but I don't remember a reference to Weathertop in FotR.
For ita and Nutty and amych, yes, Bob Anderson is god. I sure hope he has some prize students who can take up his trade when time finally overcomes him.
I know of at least a couple of guys who call themselves swordmasters because they make their living entirely from having a salle and teaching fighting with swords. Seems fair to me.
"He taught Errol Flynn."
"Cool! (Who's Errol Flynn?)"
I thought the pumpkin hobbit was played by the Deagol actor, rather than Serkis. I could be wrong.
I also don't rmember Amon Sul having been referred to as Weathertop previously onscreen.
I don't remember a reference to Weathertop in FotR.
I do-but it could be a false memory.
