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.

Is that the song my friend was telling me about? She said it was an animated movie and the orcs were singing "Where there's a whip *crack* there's a way!" That one? I'd love to hear it or see the lyrice! LOL

Remember that all of these undergarments were once called "unmentionables"?

Now it's all out there!

LOL!!! I can't stand it...it's just too AWFUL! How could he have possibly said "This is good!"

That goofy grin he has the whole time just cracks me up.

From TORN:

The Must-See LOTR Cast Projects Of 2003: Part Two
1/21/03, 2:06 pm EST - Strider

Yesterday I listed the first half of my ten personal highlights of the upcoming movie year that involve cast members of The Lord of the Rings. If you found the list even vaguely interesting, read on for what will hopefully be five more of the most successful films of 2003. [More]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From todays [more link] check out Sean Astin/Christopher Lee's new film: Says a previous version of the story had a following, or "cult status" but I have never heard of it.... have you? (the original story has the wrong photo in it.... the photo is a picture of Viggo in his new film)

The Riding of the Laddie
TBC 2003 - No Official Site - IMDb - Christopher Lee, Vanessa Redgrave, Sean Astin

Thirty years after The Wicker Man went down in movie history as one of the most chilling and provocative horror pieces ever created, star Christopher Lee has teamed up with original director Robin Hardy and The Lord of the Rings co-star Sean Astin for its sequel: The Riding of the Laddie. Its title referring an ancient Scottish ceremonial security check of an area's boundaries, The Riding of the Laddie follows two American born-again Christians coming to preach in a Scottish village. Hopefully the sequel will match the cult status of its original.

Just out of curiousity...how do you capture an image from it? (I'm on a mac here at work...would that make a difference?)

What is really a shame about that picture is that you can't see my boots. The boots made my outfit.

Thigh-high black boots with spiked heels.

That really is a shame.....

I'd love to hear it or see the lyric!

I've got it on my hard drive at home but I don't remember where I downloaded it. I'll keep looking.

Bear could probably answer that. I got the image from a google search.
