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.

Oh, those moments are wonderful. I thought Faramir was testing Frodo there too.... It was pretty obvious that Frodo was lying earlier, especially with Sam's surprised look. I can't quite tell if Faramir was surprised, or if he was kind of pretending surprise. It almost looked like a look coming from someone who suspected he would do that in the first place.
I kind of wish they had taken more time in that final moment between the 3 companions and Faramir. I would have liked for Faramir to acknowledge something of the horrible task they had before them. Somehow, "I think we finally understand each other" didn't quite cover that.... ;) Do you suppose Faramir also saw a little of how the ring had twisted Frodo's will? Surely he couldn't have missed Frodo drawing his sword on his own best friend...

LOL! - I am so glad you found that! As you know from our chat, that line has been driving me nuts!

Well, I'm sorry to say, I'm off to bed. Gonna try to go to church tomorrow, see if I can't prevent myself from coming to blows with anyone...
Penny, Congrats about the piano! How lovely! And I'm glad you like the cookies...it's a old family recipe (wink wink).
Poor Hair, you are gonna have some wild dreams tonight, after some of pictures that have been posted...
OsageBowman...I managed a quick freep after coming home from seeing the movie with my mom and before the guys got home from seeing "Jonah"! Not enough time for even a sip of coffee!

Do you think you might post the ROTK spoiler thread Monday?? Can you see well enough yet?? I am actually getting quite accustomed to this horrid display! - Heh... So maybe! - Though I am not sure we know very much yet! - Collect what you have found, and so will I...
Monday will be a little busy, but I may be able to do it then.
To: Penny1
I don't know what to dream about. This could get weird!
Good night Penny! - I am off!

As you know from our chat, that line has been driving me nuts!You're welcome! I actually recognized the line when I first saw the movie, but I wasn't sure what it meant, and I didn't remember where I recognized it from. There are lots of lines like that in the movie, things that were in the book word-for-word, but spoken by different characters.

"Loved it here, and eagerly looking forward to buying the DVD."The DVD is great. I just watched all the extras this morning. Very interesting stuff!
To: Sam Cree
Thank you! It is always pleasant to get a Precious with an honest, meaningful post... even if I did have to "work" at it a little bit... ;)
