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.

Hi, RWRF.
Do you like the movie better than the book? My wife was slightly taken aback when I told her that the heroes did not succeed in taking out the German "ship" in the book and instead, it was destroyed by English commando types in speedboats.
I haven't read the book since I was 14 and it was assigned reading for English class.

Whoopi came out dressed as Elizabeth I and deadpanned, "I AM the African Queen..."Did she look as ridiculous in that as she did in the chicken outfit?
To: Corin Stormhands
Okay, so I know I can't be a conservative and like herSo there *is* a litmus test! - I knew it! - I was told there wasn't one.
To: Overtaxed
the chicken outfit? Obligatory pic....
To: Overtaxed
I disremember the chicken outfit...
To: HairOfTheDog
I was told there wasn't one. You haven't gotten your secret decoder ring yet either, have you?
To: HairOfTheDog; Overtaxed
Oh, now I remember, what was that for?
To: Corin Stormhands
I disremember the chicken outfit... You were the lucky one.
To: Sam Cree
Hi Sam, I never read the book, so I don't know any other story than that portrayed in the movie. From what you say, I think I like the movie ending even better....

Last year's Academy Awards.

What are you doing with 2 kayaks? You'd have to like leaches living in Minnesota, I notice that's all you use for bait up there. They work great on walleyes, tho.
Who do you like for 40's female leads? I thought Bacall was attractive, but she is dumb enough to like Clinton, so I guess some things never change.

what was that for? It was *for* something?
To: Overtaxed
I remember now. I have a faulty short-term memory...
To: Corin Stormhands
You haven't gotten your secret decoder ring yet either, have you? No, and I am being kept out over this litmus test thing aren't I?
To: Corin Stormhands
You must have missed our Academy Award chat/view last year. :)

Morning!
Super busy here this morning so I'm setting out some muffins, doughnuts and coffee for everyone. Bacon, egg and cheese biscuits are ready!
I'll catch up on the posts in a bit. ENJOY!
To: HairOfTheDog
No, and I am being kept out over this litmus test thing aren't I? Well, you have been known to defend airhead actors...
To: RMDupree
Good morning - see you in a bit! - Though I have a busy day ahead of me too, when I get around to starting it.
To: Overtaxed
I was still fighting in the religion wars at that point. I came here sometime after that...
