They never mention Mirkwood in the movie

Probably covering up for those Elves.

And the elves did not "promtly" let Gollum escape. After they had held him awhile, they were trying to be nice and let him go outside occasionally on walks, and he tricked them. Climbed up in a tree and wouldn't come down. Then orcs came and wargs and aided his escape.

Gollum had a part to play yet! - He was predestined to escape by his creator! Do not blame the elves.

And for the women...isn't the biggest indoor mall in the world in Minneapolis?

The Mall of America is good for kids too, it has all sorts of amusement park rides in it. Also indoor ice skating.

WHAT??!?!?!? Minnesota in December? We might as well schedule a side trip across Caradhras...

What are you worried about? You have a nice pair of snowpants to keep you warm.

It figures....nicer to the bad guy than they are to good dwarves.

Elves are Liberals!

Aw c'mon! What's a little snow to a big tough dwarf like you?

Didn't seem to bother that ELF (Legolas) any...

If you took the US27 to US19 to I-10 shortcut you would have made it in under 7 hours.

Oohh, I'll have to try that one in January, thanks!

The elves (Elrond) let Isildur keep the ring...
The elves let Gollum escape...

I like Ely, even if I have never been there in winter, and only once, more than 50 years ago, in summer. It frequently has the national lowest temperature in January (often 30 degrees below zero), sometimes on the same day that Ocala has the national high temperature (often in the 80's, sometimes in the 90's).

Cold weather is perfect cuddling weather, to my mind...

Let me think about that one.

A frozen lake...a small cabin...no shower facilities...and close quarters with g'nad...I DON'T THINK SO!!!
