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.

That's cool! Is the cloak part of it still wearable without the head part underneath? - Seems like at the event it would be fun to come in wearing the full getup, but that after awhile she would want to be able to breath, see, and talk to people there!

He'd give Frodo a swirley or something. He doesn't respect him!
To: HairOfTheDog
Fear not! Frodo will spend a quiet evening in control of the remote this evening.
To: HairOfTheDog
From what I understand, the head is removable. You can wear the cloaks alone and just pop the head back on as necessary!
She was also saying how she plans on having a tape recording of the Nazgul scream hidden in the cloaks and just press the play button when she sneaks up behind someone. *grin*

Heh....

(Or fast reflexes...last time I went through a haunted maze thing, I ended up smacking a couple of the people who jumped out at me. ;-)
Not intentionally, of course...

You Ready For This?6/03/03, 12:36 pm EST - Xoanon
This belongs in the 'Is this really necessary?' department. These Frodo/LOTR themed bags are being sold overseas and available online. Take a look at one of the tackiest LOTR tie-ins ever! [

What Does Sam Say?6/03/03, 4:50 am EST - Tehanu
Lisa wrote, "A few months ago I wrote to TORN telling them how fantastic Gollum was for my hearing-impaired husband. [The animation is so accurate that he can be lip-read! - T] TORN asked me if my husband could interpret what Sam was saying in Osgiliath, when Frodo fades in and out . After several attempts, however, he's said he can't understand Sam. One drawback of lip reading is that slow motion kills any ability to understand what the person is saying - which is why you should never exaggerate enunciation when speaking to a hearing impaired person!" OK, so we're putting the call out to all Ringers: What do YOU think Sam is saying when his voice fades out to Frodo in Osgiliath?

This belongs in the 'Is this really necessary?' department. I'd say more like the 'this is just WRONG' department.
And if they HAD to do it, couldn't they have at least put his whole face on it?
To: RosieCotton
The backside is even weirder... in terms of having a bag too small for the picture....
To: HairOfTheDog
Yeah...saw that. Looks like they took material from something much bigger and made it into a [very ugly] bad.
Yuck!
To: RosieCotton
TTT Extended Edition DVD case....
I bet RoTK is just like it and blue.
To: RosieCotton
a [very ugly] bad.Oops! Make that bag. Freudian slip?
To: HairOfTheDog
Or gold? Probably blue, though, you're right.
Looks nice.
To: RosieCotton
Maybe gold or bronzish.... That would 'go' too.
To: HairOfTheDog
They may be saving gold or bronze for the extra super duper deluxe extended enhanced version that includes all three movies and all kinda extras.
To: RosieCotton
Good point!
To: RosieCotton
Or black. Faded black would be good.
To: HairOfTheDog
Kinda charcoal colored?
