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.

Scamper. Next they'll comandeer the roads...shut down the national highway system to make room for their scampering. Next will be all the runways. I tell ya, they intend to stop all commerce.

Just some nuts and a bit of room to scamper in.... That is all they need.

Sure....and what happens when they breed more and more squirrels all wanting nuts and room to scamper in. All the other species will soon be nutless and with not enough room to turn around in.

P1, that is one deep hook friend elf is using in that shot, most use the pads of the finger tips or the first joint, haven't seen the second joint being used that I recall. But Legolas is still a mighty fine archer.

Are you about ready to leave for the moot?

Yes, I was. And now I have returned from mooting. Had a very enjoyable time meeting rwrf (and family) and Dawntreader. Pictures will be forthcoming.

I see that Versaphile had to restructure because of bandwidth issues.... Hopefully, I won't be THAT popular!

Ditto here. But I don't even have the TTT screencaps up yet. I better quit slacking!

Good! - Tell us about the moot! - You ate lunch, talked about all of us, then watched the film? - Did you like watching the film with Hobbit Holers? - I sure like watching the movies with Penny, because all we have to do is smirk and glance 'cuz we both know what the joke is!

Boy, did we ever talk about all of you! :D And Dawntreader was provided with a nice fresh batch of cookies.

all we have to do is smirk and glance 'cuz we both know what the joke is!

Yeah there was some of that too. rwrf and I kind of went off on Mr. Stuck-up-sticky-beak Elrond during lunch, which Dawn said kind of affected her viewing. And it was pointed out to me by Dawn that Merry's gash changed sides when they enter Fangorn. I hadn't noticed that before. We were somewhat surprised by the size of the crowd there. By the end of the previews, it was mostly full. And there was one minor annoyance: they forgot to turn the lights down until about 20 minutes into the film!

'Lo Ecurbh, sounds like a nice time, amazing that the theatre was mostly full. These mini moots are very happy events in a sad world.

See everyone later, going to watch the movie.
