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.

Thing is though..... even if it is Merry..... It might not be Dominic Monahan except in close ups.... they'd be using his size double.Are you sure they'd be using size doubles for Merry and Pippen in ROTK? They've grown since we last saw them.
If you look at the Dernhelm pic you can also make out the Elven cloak over his shoulder.

By George, I think we've got it!

Could it be Pippin holding Merry? Bear and Ruthy, you are right! It's Pippen holding Merry. So no wonder Dernhelm's arm doesn't look broken, it's not her. ;^)
I also thought it was kind of weird that Dernhelm would be wearing a Gondorian helmet.

Very good eyes!
Must be the Elvish influence in your Gondorian heritage. ;)
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
You know, this is probably how all these rumours get started. People don't really see what they thought they saw. And then they report what they saw which ends up being not even close to reality.
Uh, don't ask me to say that again. ;^)

The chain mail makes sense for Pippin in RoTK costume.


To: HairOfTheDog
Yes, check the left arm on Pippin especially... chain mail and a bracer. The arm looks the same in both pics.

Must be the Elvish influence in your Gondorian heritage. ;)Um, can we keep that just between you and me? ;^)

Glad y'all figgered out who that was. I'll watch tonite.
To: ksen
Heh... least now I don't have to worry so much about Dernhelm's scene being messed up.
To: Corin Stormhands
In other Stormhands news, Luke was kicked out of his Vacation Bible School class by some old bat who said she couldn't handle him.
Wife is exhausted working all night, teaching VBS, played for a funeral this afternoon. She's in tears.
So much for suffer the little children...
To: Corin Stormhands
I'm outta here...
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Yes, with that settled, I am off now.... out to read for a bit. Back later!
To: RMDupree
Sorry, for what I'm I supposed to be watching?
To: RMDupree
You are RIGHT! I just wanted to see what I wanted to see and it is indeed Pippin holding Merry.
Oh my lands...this is gonna be hard to watch. THat is one of the most heartbreaking parts of the book...

Sounds like you need a vacation... Have a good evening.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Okay, just got back from conferencing with a student. Don't know what they're thinking taking up valuable post time. What's up. I just saw Pippin holding Merry. Anything else? No Dernhelm? Where are the elf pics?
