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.

FREEP THESE POLLS!

Awards, Awards, Awards...
2/04/03, 7:02 am EST - leo

Apart from the Oscars there are a whole lot more awards that The Two Towers can pick up, and you can even help with that! You can vote for The Two Towers as 'Orange Film of the Year' at the BAFTAS here (please don't email me about this anymore), but there's more! The Two Towers also picked up several AOL Moviegoer Awards, you can vote for TTT to win a few of those here, and last but not least TTT got nominated for the Internet Movie Awards and everyone should be able to vote for those here!

I don't know why they had to trash my thread. I guess the thread was a bad idea...learned me good, they did.

Hey! the Moviefone poll is trying to split the LoTR vote by nominating two ringers for a couple categories: Bloom & McKellan in Best Supporting Actor, and Otto & Tyler for Best Supporting Actress.

EW didn't get a nod in any category.

I think it would be kind of ironic if TTT, written by a Catholic, won the ORANGE movie award. ;^)

I guess I didn't help any, though, shouting back at 'em. But it burns me up that they had to go there!

Bookmarked! And if you haven't been to Green Linnet, do so. If you browse through the CDs there, MOST of them let you listen to the entire CD via RealPlayer. It's great! My own personal Celtic jukebox!

I freeped them, the internet movie awards one. After looking at their lists I see I didn't see any of the other movies for best picture, and the best actors I knew but didn't like any of them (that was hard), and the best actresses I had no idea who any of them were.

Actually, I was glad you did it. But I wish I'd never started it. I guess it was dumb. Not any dumber than other stuff people put on that board, though.

Don't let them get you down. If you let them intimidate you into not posting then they have won.

"What are we fighting for?"

"That there is still some good left in the world"

Or something like that.....
