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 have to wait until the wife is out with the girls --

Is urgency or excitement even in the vocabulary of your people? Good grief!

West coasters....

CBS is running kindof a year in review, showing, of course, many scenes from the war on terror, and they were playing it against TTT soundtrack. It was eery!

They count in my math! Good Morning g'nad!

BTW, You haven't spoken on the film since your first view... have you seen it again? - Are you still disappointed in it?

I can't see John Rhys-Davies saying, "Any you take with the bow don't count!", not even as Gimli. ;^)

I loved the parts of the actor interviews that dealt with JRD. Dom did a great JRD impersonation, "Do you have partridge? Bring the partridge!"

well... they don't count toward a test of personal close combat skills... but I think Gimli had no problem with the elves wittlin' down the Uruks a little...
