The New Hobbit Hole

[ksen]

Is this the guy?

Yeah, that's the guy. You can't really tell because of the bad quality of the bootle....,er, clip. In the theatre though it did look like Haldir.

We had a brand new 16 screen theatre open up in town yesterday, guess what they are playing? I'm going to see if I can get my mom to come sit the kids so I can take my wife for her second viewing. I will try to pay better attention this time, since I will be expecting it.

Penny1, thanks for trying to capture the still for me.

OK, re: post 4217; is that a shot of Aragorn from FOTR? I see the trolls which I assume are supposed to be the ones from the Hobbit, but I don't remember that particular scene from the movie. Was it when he was searching for athelas to heal Frodo's wound from the Black Riders?

[Penny1]

You're welcome. I hope you do get things worked out to take your wife to see it again today. That is so cool that they are playing it in a brand new multiplex. :)

Hopefully they will get a good trailer/preview/clip up on the official site soon!

[Penny1]

It was after Weathertop, right before Aragorn and Sam go looking for the athelas. The other hobbits are in the background, and Frodo is lying on the ground where Sam and Pippin are trying to tend him. I think the Black Riders are screeching in the distance at this point too...

Bumping that hope. I'm getting desperate for a good quality preview here!

Hullo! - Good Morning - er - afternoon!

HairOfTheDog needed a little Hair of the Dog this morning, so I set up camp on the couch and have been pretty lazy today. Last couple of hours I have been watching the pre-race background on the Kentucky derby that runs a half hour from now. How did the day shape up for all of you?

[JenB]

Pretty good; I am about to go out with friends, as soon as they get over here. Probably won't be around tomorrow - I have plans! but I'll be back either tomorrow evening or Monday. Have a nice rest of the weekend!

Rainy and dreary all day! Needless to say, I didn't get any gardening done. :( I did pot some plants that needed it, hung out with the kitty, checked in at the HH and the Dragon...was pretty much a bum.

Tonight it's short-track racing at Richmond and then the Cubs vs. Dodgers. :)

[HairOfTheDog]

It is a little chilly and dreary outside here too - the couch has been my favorite hangout. Been just lurking for a few minutes here and there today.

[Overtaxed]

You didn't observe any...Tookishness...by any chance, did you? :D

[Overtaxed]

Great! It's wet in Richmond too!

[HairOfTheDog]

I did see a little bit, yes.

hehehe. I think Rivendell has perked up nicely! - We need you Tooks to act up a little! - the place was getting boring!

I don't know about you, but I am just very eager to get through FoTR and start on TTT. I think a new thread, with looser rules about pictures, as more TTT shots begin to sneak out will make it more fun again. What do you think?

[Overtaxed]

That sounds good! The pictures really liven things up. Also, I need at least one other "Took" to play off of. :)

[HairOfTheDog]

Oh I don't think you have ever had trouble finding a willing cohort!

[Overtaxed]

It's just that I don't feel right "Tooking it" with ahem "non-regulars"...you don't know how they're going to take it and - outside of PC liberals and trolls - I don't want to put them off!

[HairOfTheDog]

Yes, be easy on the newbies. We don't want to frighten them. I was speaking of Penny and Jen.

[Overtaxed]

Yes Penny and Jen are good! Actually all three of us together can keep Took's Corner a lively place.

[Overtaxed]

Found some TT pics! Here are a few of our guys:

[JenB]

Those are great pics! I'm wondering who came up with the captions, though!

Just checking in between tonight and tomorrow. Hope some Tooks show up for you to play with tomorrow afternoon! Save me some wings, please...

[HairOfTheDog]

Goodnight everyone! - Here is a night-light for any night-wandering hobbits!
