The Hobbit Hole XXI - ...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/21/2005 6:44:57 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

You know, Gimli didn't need any special effects to fall off that horse...

So, do you think that in all 12 hours of the movie, nobody really had to pee?

Or did they do like we did and go during the Aragorn/Arwen flashback scenes?

~snicker~

I couldn't blame them if they did!

But then, when did Arwen and Aragorn go?

Why are the characters in Japanese cartoons usually pink-skinned and exaggeratedly large-and-round-eyed?

Clare says it's because the original anime illustrations were based on the old Disney cartoons, whose characters had big eyes. She seems to think it's easier to draw the expression in the eyes if they're larger. As for pink-skinned, she has no idea.

Or then again, maybe Arwen just turned around 'cause she had to go. And while she was there just thought she'd run up and see Elrond again...

She did better than I would have if I had seen a son I never thought I'd have running through the woods in front of me.

I'da wet myself then and there.

We sound pretty in sync on this. Films usually disappoint though ;<

Maybe that's why they cut back and forth so much during TTT.

Chat view would be good sometime soon! It's been awhile since I've sat and watched any of the movies!

I think for Orlando Bloom, taking riding and swordfighting lessons for LoTR has made him as much money as acting school has ;~D

They sure have! He's used them for Pirates, Troy and now Kingdom of Heaven!
