Who Said These "Two Towers" Quotes? (Vanity)
1/3/03

Posted on 01/03/2003 10:14:16 AM PST by mtngrl@vrwc

I just got home from seeing this wonderful movie for the seventh time and brought home twelve pages of dialogue scribbled in the dark (some of it was pretty messy and hard to read but I think it's pretty accurate). I wrote down some memorable quotes and wondered if you guys might enjoy guessing who said them and who the speakers were talking to.

I will give you a few quotes to start and if this turns out to be fun, I (or you guys) can post some more. I have tons more!

1. Tell me what happened and I will ease your passing.

2. Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.

3. We have trusted you this far. You have not led us astray. I was wrong to despair.

4. Isengard has been unleashed.

5. You are the luckiest, the canniest, and the most wreckless man I have ever known.

6. Why do you lay these troubles on an already troubled mind? Can you not see your uncle is wearied by your malcontent and your warmongering?

7. I come back to you now at the turn of the tide.

8. Dark have been my dreams of late.

9. Open war is upon you - whether you would risk it or not.

10. Three hundred lives of men I walked on this earth and now I have no time.

11. The courtesy of your hall has lessened of late.

12. Your leechcraft would have had me crawling on all fours like a beast.

13. Finish this line......It is time for Faramir, Captain of Gondor, to show his _______.

14. This creature is bound to me and I to him.

15. It is an army bred for a single purpose, to destroy the world of men.

16. Sauron's wrath will be terrible, his retribution swift.

17. I will have no pointy ear out scoring me.

18. We come to honor that allegiance.

19. You could have picked a better spot.

20. The ring will not save Gondor. It only has the power to destroy.

Would anybody like to guess who said these words or to whom these words were spoken?

Both Legolas and Gimli talked to the Orc. So if it isn't Legolas, I'd say it has to be Gimli.

Actually I liked the movie enough to see it twice, and I want to go again before it leaves the theaters. It's a masterpiece that leaves the Star Wars saga in the dust.

Though I will admit what they did with Faramir made me grumpy.

brought home twelve pages of dialogue

You and my brother-in-law need to get a life. He has seen the 2 movies and read the books following the viewing of each. He has never read the trilogy before. Anyway, he sits there reading the book and he has pages and pages and pages of notes that he is taking. He is studying the darn thing!

I read the series twice between 25 and 30 years ago and hardly remember anything. So, after seeing only the first one, I at least know who to ask for clarification on anything......... (But he is such a dork....)
