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'm tempted to do the same thing this time around....

At the risk of rekindling the Elf-bashing, I wanted to slap Elrond for saying that. I was thinking, "What a manipulative jerk!"

No elf-bashing taken here. Just your opinion. But, this line was one Elrond used in the story. PJ didn't make that one up.

I didn't like it when I read it in the book because it sounds like something my mom would say. Oh, I think she did say that to me..... regularly.

You take away the hair, the costume and the grime from Aragorn, and he's just Viggo

I'll have to chime in a hearty "I second that opinion."

And Viggo's got no brain politically.

I remember them on Sat. Night Live, back when I was a kid...they strapped to their heads and hung under their chins and rocked back and for spilling "drool" all over the place. Anyone else remember that? I used to think it was hysterically funny.

I could just see us all traipsing out of the film with these overflowing drool buckets...HA!

I remember that one! I was laughing and trying not to puke at the same time. It was great! ;^)

Was SNL the one that had the skit about Julia Childs where she cuts her hand with a knife and blood starts spurting EVERYWHERE while she continues to prepare the meal? Or was that SCTV?

Maybe we can rent one of those short, yellow school buses to go to the theatre in to see RoTK.
