...But can you think of a worse name than "Tirion upon Túna"??? It sounds like an Elvish sandwich!!

Why not combine Legolas, Aragorn and Treebeard. Since one of Treebeard's other names is Fanghorn, the character could be Fanghorn Legorn! "I say boy, now I say THAT's a Hobbit!"
| ||||||

Okay, did anyone in ME ever cuss? The only example I can remember off hand was Treebeard cussing about the orcs chopping down the trees/huorns/ents (I forgot exactly how it went--something along the lines of turamba-rumba-dumba-orcum-suckum-eatum-shitum)

[On Arwen's expanded role]
Regarding Liv, I am a little concerned about her increasing roll... Arwen should be slender. Posted by Dunadan Companion on Ringbearer.org | ||||||

I see your point. So I guess I will have to wonder around with a lantern in one hand and a copy of LOTR in the other, whacking people upside the head with the book. "This is the honest truth! It is not a sword and sorcery Titanic! It is a great story!"

I just need the assurance that the kickass character of Theowyn is still in the film adaptation. The thought of Liv Tyler playing half Arwen and half Theowyn stabs me in the heart (her Plunkett-and-McClean-slutty-ass is in all three LOTR movies!!!). If someone knows more about it, please tell me. I'm praying for this character.

I think they should cast Alicia Silverstone as Galadriel. That way it could bring her and Liv back together, and when Frodo offers her the ring she could scream out "As if!!!"
| ||||||
|
If they want to draw the teen crowd, though, they better make it Lord of the Screams 3 or I Know What You Did in Mordor. Cast Leo in it too.

I think New Line and PJ are making a HUGE mistake. If I am reading this right, Arwen is going to have a large role in this movie, and is going to be almost the total antithesis of her character as Tolkien wrote it. I have a feeling that Arwen is going to be at Helm's Deep, and then be at Aragorn's side for the rest of the movie, even going to the final battle outside of the Gates of Mordor. Xenarwen, the Warrior Princess, will be born.

In these pre-Austin powers days, will they be able to name a character in a movie "SHAGRAT"? Seeing it written down is funny enough but on the big screen BWAHAHAHAHA!
I think for the movies they should change his name to "Tenderly make love, whilst really caring about your parters wants and desires - RAT".

...And the #1 reason why Gandalf was cooler than Qui Gonn... 1). Gandalf's friend and ally who owed him a life debt was Gwaihir Windlord, king of Eagles and master of the skies. Qui Gon had Jar Jar.
| ||||||
|
The reason an eagle could not fly The Ring directly to Mt. Doom is that the flying balrogs would have stopped them.

...I just hope that the setting doesn't look like the setting for the "Safety Dance" video. They picked some area of England for the video shoot because of its medieval look. And you can see power lines in the background!! If I see Frodo and Sam prancing about telephone poles doing a weird 'S' shaped thing with their arms I'll have to assasinate Peter Jackson.
| ||||||
|
Here's my prediction: If the Springle-Ring is shown in the movie it will be the first big dance craze of the 21st century.

Great movie lines - misappropriated
Response to Liv Tyler As Arwen
..Sauron is a different issue. We never really see him in the book. But if he must be seen, well, again I hope he's done well (he's already well done - LOL).
...No wonder LOTR was such a hit with the 60's/70's counterculture ... half the characters seem to have a serious 'weed' addiction.
...But again, I hope its just shown in passing, and not made a focus of the scenes it's in. The last thing we want is for kids to start smoking because Hobbits do! Hee hee.
...well, we don't want kids to stab each other, or cut each others heads off with swords, and we don't want them to bite each others fingers off, and we don't want them to eat people,or die falling into bottomless pits, and we don't want them to use catapults to fire human heads at one another, and we don't want them to try and strangle each other, and we don't want them to set wolves (or each other) on fire, and we don't want them shooting arrows into people, or any of these things, so I'd guess all of that better not be a focus of the scenes in which they take place, either.
