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.

I'll probably stop by after the flick, though I doubt I will do a review... I haven't the quality writin' skills of the other Hole residents... prob'ly along the lines of

Gimli good! Him chop with axe! Elf die good! Scream like woman! Aragorn still need shower!

Ex-cuse me? What more do the Elves need to do? Personally march into Mordor and demand a duel with Sauron? - Oh wait, they've done that sort of thing before, haven't they?

Good morning all!

The only disruption was Steve scratching his beard right by my only good ear.

An infrequent lurker here.

Speaking of good ear, Mrs. don-o has some hearing loss. She knows the stories well, but mentioned only being able to catch about 1/3 of the dialog.

She is asking if the script is avilable yet. My search is fruitless. But, if it is out there, I reckon this is the place to find it.

That is true.....I find that I can't really go back and remember things from it without someone else mentioning something. That will certainly improve after today ;)

I did love the "You look terrible" line. Did you think of it as an inside joke like I did? That was a running joke between the two actors....

They could stop making so much noise on the way down! :)

Good Morning!

I haven't seen a script out there yet!

The person who I thought made the most beautiful FoTR script website last year is intending to update her site with a TTT script. You can sign up with her to get an email announcement when she has TTT up.

Yes, definately a running joke... like the dwarf tossing!
"Don't tell the elf"! HA!

I think it was a running joke not only between them, but with the fan base as well. I am glad PJ took the humor risks... Humor is hard to do right when the subject matter is as loved as this is. But I think he made the same jokes we would have made.

I think that an Elf is allowed to make a bit of noise on his way to death. It's not like he's expecting it, is he?

Well....if he's in a battle against 10,000 orcs he just might think that dying was a possibility.
