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.
But as played in the movies Arwen annoyed me so much it was all I could do to not audibly chant "Dump the elf! Dump the elf!" everytime Aragorn had screen time with Eowyn.
Heh. I feel similarly, except I'd substitute "girl-elf" for "elf" and "Legolas" for "Eowyn".
much like the potentially EE Legolas drinking game
The what now? What is this?
Edit: and ooh! to those ROTK EE spoilers (esp. the Mouth of Sauron bit).
The what now? What is this?
It was a scene that was in one of the documentaries (Beyond the Movie, IIRC) that showed Gimli goading Legolas into a drinking game, and Legolas ... well, speaking more than all his lines in the movie put together. And then starting to drink.
I can't imagine it having a place in what we saw in the theatre, but for my own personal education? I wanna know.
At work they've got these xeroxed pictures of Agent Smith with a empty caption balloon, and people are supposed to fill in the balloon with something witty. If I can find a blank one, I'm writing "I miss the long hair and the pointy ears and the nifty crown."
ita, is that for TTT or ROTK? Either way, I can't see it fitting with the movies, but man do I want to see that scene!
RotK -- it looked like it took place in Edoras, around when Mippin were dancing on the tables.
Also, there's a report on the Maryland Tuesday Trilogy over at TOR.n, and the article mentions the most unique costume I've heard about yet--"Motion Capture Guy!" Yes, someone went dressed in a blue body suit covered with yellow dots.
Aw. Well, that section is fairly light-hearted, so it might fit there after all. Any excuse for more Legolas...
And more Legola-Gimli in the same shot. It's hard to believe in their growing friendship when you hardly ever seem them together. It's the biggest drawback to using the scale doubles. Isn't John Rhys Davies the biggest guy in the movie--other than our Maori orcs?
So, you're holding in contempt an entire class of people
Critics are a "class" now?
I have a very low opinion of the profession of film critic, for which I was offering an explanation, but for which I do not intend to apologize. You are, of course, free to disagree and take in any stray critics you find cowering in the streets, victims of my class warfare.
Isn't John Rhys Davies the biggest guy in the movie--other than our Maori orcs?
RotK--yes. Christopher Lee is a few inches taller than JR-D, IIRC.
