The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!
Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Journey to the Cross-roads
The Two Towers Edition
Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)
Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Ruthie see is first.... early tonight. She should just be getting back when I have to go!
To: 2Jedismom; RMDupree
Ruthie will be seeing it at 10pm tonight in Florida, so I believe she will be the first of our group I'll be last.

Yeah well, I like you guys better anyway, :-). Besides, I am dying and going to hell for reading and loving Tolkein's works.... he's the devil. Hehe.
To: HairOfTheDog
I am so nervous I can't type!
To: carton253
Your FReepmail was fine, I wish you hadn't editted it though. I'm interested in all your thoughts on the subject.
I've been busy today so I may not get to a response until tonight or tomorrow.

Aahhhh! It only took 34 posts for the Dwarf/Elf wars to start taking off......wonder what took them so long? I think it important to note that THE DWARVES DIDN'T START IT!!!!.
But we'll be happy to finish it.
RWRF where are you? The elves are taking all the good rooms...
To: HairOfTheDog
I have one word...chamomile!
LOL
We're going to the pizza party for supper, then on to the cinema for the pre-movie party...so I will be gone from about 5:00pm central till about 3:30am. I will try to report in in the morning, but don't hold your breath! LOL
My mom and dad are keeping the boys until after lunch tomorrow.
To: 2Jedismom
What do you think the odds are that you will be able to take the boys to this one? You think you will? Or would you be covering their eyes for too much of it?
To: Corin Stormhands
I think we should all take a lesson from Legolas and Gimli. Lets put aside the dwarf/elf differences, and recognize each others strengths, :-).
To: ksen
That's okay... is it okay to move on to the next church? I can do that post tonight... or would that be too confusing?
To: HairOfTheDog
I am concerned about it, from what I hear...and have already been preparing Matthew for the possibility. He is denial about it though and I've not pushed it since I haven't seen it. I'll decide after I've seen it a couple of times.
I might just wait to let him see it till after it comes out in DVD, so I can monitor it in the comfort of my own livingroom.
I never took Joshua to the regular cinema and when it came out in the cheap cinema, I always took him during naptime and he slept through most of it in my arms. I doubt I'll be able to do it with this one, since he's tapering off on the nap-taking now.
To: 2Jedismom
I heard that PJ almost got an "R" rating due to violence. I don't know if that was hype... but the source was reputable.
To: carton253
Go ahead and post the next church. I'll cover the ones you posted in my next mail to you.

'Tis true. I couldn't settle for leaving the rebuttal of the numerous insults from this morning on the other thread.
To: 2Jedismom
You know what I'd tell 'em...
To: HairOfTheDog
Hopefully this place can avoid competition for post numbers.

I think we should all take a lesson from Legolas and Gimli. Like I said, the dwarves didn't start it.
To: carton253
Yep, I've heard the same thing. People who have already seen it saying they can't believe it's not rated R. I'll just have to see. He can stand some violence, but I never allowed him to watch the decapitations or Boromir getting shot. I thought he might find it too disturbing. So if the movie is chock full of this kind of stuff...it won't be worth buying him a ticket if I'm constantly covering his eyes!
To: John Farson
Hopefully this place can avoid competition for post numbers.We'll find out in a few minutes......

*AHEM*
Does this (ElfBash! ) look familiar? See post #48,219. Make note of date and time. Such a magnanimous way to begin a morning.
