Lord of the Rings Bloopers!

[Rose Cotton]

No, not movie bloopers. Book bloopers. I know you could all think of some really funny ones. You can also do bloopers from any other Tolkien books. I can only think of one right now:

(The Breaking of the Fellowship)
Boromir:....It should be mine! Give it to me.(Boromir tries to jump over the rock but he dosn't jump high enough and the rock hits him between the legs and Boromir falls backwards cluching his privates and mouning. Meanwhile Frodo starts rolling on the ground, laughing histericaly)

[Anarya SilverBranch]

Gandalf and Saruman are duking it out in Orthnac with their staffs when Gandalf accidentally gives Saruman a good wack in the head wih the end of his staff.

(Well, I'd laugh!)

[Rose Cotton]

LOL!!!

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

While attacking Shelob, Sam stabs her in the stomach only to see sparks fly. Shelob falls to the ground and a compartment opens up to reveal Bilbo inside. He really wanted his ring back!

Ok, that was dumb, but sort of funny smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Kalimac]

Ugh, Tigerlily smilies/eek.gif . For some reason that image makes me think of a truly demented Middle Earth version of "Red Riding Hood" ("My, Shelob, what big...legs you have.")

This one's rather trite but anyway; in Shelob's lair, Frodo walks steadily down to meet the eyes, clutching the Phial of Galadriel. The eyes slowly retreat, then - sputter, sputter, buzzzz - the light of the Phial flickers wildly and then goes out. The eyes start forward again and Frodo and Sam run away, terrified. Across the path slowly comes the Energizer Bunny, banging on his drum...

[Tigerlily Gamgee]

sooooorrryyyy smilies/frown.gif smilies/tongue.gif

[ElanorGamgee]

Gandalf walks stealthily to the window in Bag End, reaches out, grabs Sam, loses his balance, and falls out the window. Sam stands up with a dazed, lost look on his face.

[Nevfeniel]

Tom Bombadil: You let them out again, Old Man Willow!
Old Man Willow: No!

[Thinhyandoiel]

Bilbo: I don't like half as much of you as much as I'd like, and I like you less..no wait...like less than you, much as you, half? you...*stares at his cup* Who switched my tea?
Pippin & Merry: *snicker*

[Joy]

Thinhyandoiel, ROTFLMHO! LOL!

Somehow, I can acutually picture that smilies/biggrin.gif

[Birdland]

(Frodo and Gandalf, after the departure of Bilbo)
Gandalf: He left a packet for you. There it is.

Frodo: What packet?

G: There, on the mantelpiece.

F: I don't see any packet, Gandalf.

G: It's right there! On the mantelpiece, where he said he'd...(Gandalf rummages through junk on mantel, then runs for the door)

G: Bilbo? BIL-BO! You come back here with that Ring right now! Do you hear me? BILBO? BIL-BOOOOHHHHHH!!!!

[ April 26, 2002: Message edited by: Birdland ]

[Amarinth]

LOL!

after eomer & co. round up aragorn et al on the plains of rohan and eomer imperiously demands they identify themselves, aragorn steps forward and cries out his, ahem, lofty credentials and lofty mission in an even more imperious voice, concluding "will you aid me or hinder me?"

the rohirrim look at each other and bleet out a chorus--"HIIIIIIIIIINDEEEEEEEER" and proceed to beat aragorn et al with gusto.

wicked!

[ May 08, 2002: Message edited by: Amarinth ]

[Lady of the Lake]

Hehe, I just posted this on the wrong message board (a blooper of my own!), but here it is again:

"I am King of the Nazgul!"
"Oh, hi! I'm Mr Baggins."

[pippin_took0]

LOL!
Gandalf whistles. Nothing happens.
Gandalf shouts: 'Oy, Shadowfax! Get over here!' Shadowfax comes galloping up and skids, but doesn't stop soon enough and knocks Gandlf over.
When Gandalf has picked himself up and mounted Shadowfax, Shadowfax goes into a gallop and Gandalf falls off. Shadowfax gallops off... and that's the last we see of him.

[Elenya]

In Khazad-Dum...
Balrog comes chasing after the fellowship, and right before he reaches the bridge, he stops, reaches into a pocket, and starts trying to light himself up again with a cigarette lighter "Da*n it, I knew I shouldn't have run that fast!!!"

[Birdland]

Amarinth - --"HIIIIIIIIIINDEEEEEEEER"

Heeeeeeeeeeee! smilies/biggrin.gif

[Gimli Son Of Gloin]

When the Fellowship reaches the Argonath, and Aragorn stands it the front of the boat, they hit a rapid, and Aragorn falls into the river.

[Elven-Maiden]

Arwen and Eowyn get into a cat-fight over Aragorn, who doubles up laughing. Pipin starts hitting on Rosie and Faramir gets jealous.


K, that was dumb. I tried!


Hmm... What if Beren decided he'd rather remain single after Luthien sacrified her immortality. now, that is one blooper I wouldn't want to see!

[ElanorGamgee]

Pippin looks into the palantír and comes face-to-face with...Sauron in a pink bath robe and fuzzy slippers, sipping tea and watching "As Middle-earth Turns." Sauron flies up in a rage. "Why doesn't anyone let me know they're visiting before they barge in here!?!"

[Niere-Teleliniel]

Book blooper:

Fellowship is climbing rope ladder onto talan in Lorien. Rung gives way under Legolas, he falls.

"WAAAAAAA!"
Whap!
"OW!"
Snap!
"OW!"
CRASH!
(moan)

Remaining members look at each other, shrug, and keep climbing.

Aragorn: "He didn't accomplish that much anyway."

-----------------------------------------

Gimli sets his axe next to Andúril outside of Théoden's Hall. Axe falls over, taking sword with it and both fall off platform with a loud crash.

(sorry 'bout that, I just wanted to give it an shot.)

[Gimli Son Of Gloin]

Galadriel comes down to her special mirror, only to find Legolas taking a bath in it.

[ April 29, 2002: Message edited by: Gimli Son Of Gloin ]

[The Viking Thunder]

At Isengard when Gandalf bullies Saruman around, the balcony breaks and Saruman falls on top of Gandalf. They both start to wrestle on the ground, and Pippen quips - "Hey Istari Deathmatch!" and everyone starts cheering Gandalf and jeering Saruman.

[The Viking Thunder]

At Lothlorien as the fellowship are greeted by Galadriel, the balcony to her bedroom breaks and Gandalf, hiding there to eavesdrop, falls on top of Celebron. They both start to wrestle on the floor, and Pippen quips - "Hey Celeb-Istari Deathmatch!" and everyone, including Galadriel, starts cheering Gandalf and jeering Celebron.

[The Viking Thunder]

At the Bridge of Khazak Dum, the balrog falls down as it breaks but fails to grab Gandalf. He walks outside with the fellowship, but Aragorn informs him that there are no more lines and actions for him until the next book and instructs him to remain hidden and silent.
From then on Gandalf finds various places to remain hidden, including Galadriel's bedroom, until he is written into the story again.

[The Viking Thunder]

At the Council of Elrond, The Elf Lord addresses the ring, ' Behold Isildur's...Bang!
Pippen lits a leftover cracker from Bilbo's Party. Bang!

[The Viking Thunder]

As the Witch King closes in for the kill towards Eowyn, his robe gets caught in an over head tree and is pulled off to reveal a very flushed Arwen. " Keep your shield grubbing paws off my main man." She hisses.
And Merry claps in anticipation of a cat fight.

[Cimmerian]

Real Funny Stuff, Viking! smilies/cool.gif

[Araen]

LOL. My mother is wondering why I am laughing so hard.
I've worked hard to come up with one.

Gandalf is walking in a muddy field in the Shire and trips over something, no one other then Pippin Took, "Behold Gandalf the not-so-grey-and-more-bronw," says the Took. Gandalf wacks him with his staff.

Okay.... so it was kind of lame but I had to find a way to use the Gandalf not so Grey thing.

[ May 01, 2002: Message edited by: Araen ]

[The Viking Thunder]

Thanks Cimm, I am working up a few more now. Heh heh smilies/biggrin.gif

[pippin_took0]

Or what about this:
When they get to Bree the dark figure that climbs over the gates falls off at the top and lands in the mud.
Then for some reason Strider does not appear. Hmm.

[Arwen Imladris]

Mines of Moria:
Gandalf: Fool of a kook... errr... Took.

Bilbo's party:
I am 11 today... oh, I mean 111.

Gollum:
Yes, I would like some taters, Oppps! No, we hatesssss taterssssss.

Sorry guys.

[Gilthalion]

Actual book blooper:

Frodo and Sam are in a chasm so narrow and deep that though it is daylight, they can see a star in the sky. I think this is a misconception of Tolkien's based on the old wive's tale that you could see the stars in the day sky if you were in a deep enough well.

(I know it's not a funny imaginary blooper, but that's what came to mind.)

Imaginary Blooper:

Aragorn grasps the hilt shard of Narsil. "If by life or by... ungh. if by life or by death... ungh. ungh. UNGH. Pfooey! OK! Who put the glue in my scabbard?"

[ElanorGamgee]

Your Gollum blooper inspired me, Arwen Imladris smilies/biggrin.gif:

Sam stumbles upon Gollum greedily gobbling something behind a rotting log. "Hey! What are you doing eating our lembas, Stinker?" he yells. Gollum stops in mid-bite and quickly spits out the remains of the lembas, grimacing and gagging. "Nasssty lembas! We hates them! Wicked, cruel hobbitses try to choke poor Smeágol!" Sam shruggs and walks away, and Gollum scoops up the lembas crumbs on the ground and chomps them down. "Hey, we has a reputation to keep up..."

[Lanniae of the Axe]

Ooo...this should be fun. And as we are not looking for REAL bloopers (as I thought at first) I'm going to get a little crazy.

(Elf fans, please excuse my excessive dishing on the Elves...I love 'em, but I also love making fun of 'em!)

1. When showing Frodo her mirror, Galadriel trips on the slippery stones (being barefoot) and *splash* headfirst into the mirror!

2. Elrond's wife, as we all know, is gone, so the bachelor Elf takes advantage of her absence...
Arwen: "Sorry, Aragorn, can't do anything tonight, I've gotta babysit my little brothers and sisters AGAIN."

3. Legolas is singing his farewell to Boromir and his voice cracks.

Okay, will stop with the Elves...

4. The Balrog closes in on the Fellowship, ready to eat them or do whatever a Balrog does... Gandalf passes gas and the Balrog explodes.

And my final blooper:

5. Pippin.
smilies/wink.gif
He's just a blooper by himself!

*I love you, Pip!*

[Thinhyandoiel]

After the battle in Balin's Tomb, the Fellowship is searching everywhere for Gimli. Finally a loud, gruff snort comes from the wall behind them and they all turn to see Gimli, son of Gloin, pinned to the wall by the shirt with an arrow. All eyes turn to Legolas. "What? I thought he was an Orc."

Okay, okay, not as funny as my last one. I'll come up with a better one by tomorrow (I Hope). smilies/smile.gif

[pippin_took0]

When the Fellowship are travelling, Legolas wakes up...
"HEY! What happened to my hair? *sob*"
Gimli: Heh heh heh

[Cimmerian]

Good one Pippen took, I thought of this one from reading it.

At the bridge in Khazak Dum, Gimli leaps across and is grabbed by his beard. Rip..swoohp...Legolas is left holding the false goat hair beard while Gimli's plummets down the chasm.

He get's replaced by Worf of StarTrekNextGen.

Call in the CGI effects.

ps. this would go well as a movie blooper , but what the hey. Lemba anyone?

[Nevtalathiel]

You guys are so strange, I feel right at home! smilies/biggrin.gif

Aragorn draws his sword at the battle of the Pelannor Fields only to discover that he forgot to get it repaired in Rivendell.

[Cimmerian]

Good one, Nevta...or better would be he had it repaired but the elves who did the job were like the cast from the 'Carry On ' Series.... hoh hoh.. Sir Sidney as Aragorn...wot a riot, big'0rra!

[Nevtalathiel]

ROTFL Cimmerian!

[pippin_took0]

Or:
At the battle of Helm's deep, Legolas is busy shooting orcs, but he runs out of arrows. So he throws Gimli instead... and all the orcs run away screaming.

[Daniel Telcontar]

I Moria, Gandalf looks at the balrog coming.
"This foe is beyond any of your skills.
Come to think of it, mine too. Run for your life! Every wizard for himself!!

[Lanniae of the Axe]

Haha! Good one, Daniel!

[Gimli Son Of Gloin]

Legolas Is fooling with his bow and accidntally shoots Gimli in the beard with a fire arrow. IN the next scene Gimli has no beard but a big black spot.

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Aragorn just about to get married to Arwen:

Aragorn: I take thee Eowyn..uh I mean Rosie, no Arwen!.....I blew it...

Arwen is seen leaving

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

*At the Council of Elrond*

Elrond: As you know, there is a threat taking over the land (pauses) a threat to all the inhabitants of this land (another pause)and....it uh.....the Dark Lord wants to rule us....and, um..

Gandalf: Elrond, are you ok? Your not making any sense. We know these facts already.

Elrond: HEY! Who is in charge here? This isn't the Council of Gandalf now is it? It's the Council of ELROND, and does your nametag say Elrond????!!!!! NO, so be quiet old man!

Gandalf: Hey, I was just pointing something out, tha..

Elrond: NO! Don't point it out Mr.-I'm-the-cool-Wizard-with-the-pointy-hat-man! SHHHHSHHSHAAAAA!......ok, now as I was saying....There is a threat from Mordor...(looks around uneasily)..and the Dark Lord wishes to take us over and stuff. He wants his ring....but he ain't gettin it, got that!? Yeah....um, yeah ok. So we must...

Aragorn: Destroy the ring, Elrond? Do we destroy the ring? Is that what your saying?

Elrond: (gives Aragorn an evil look)..Well FINE Aragorn, you stinkin "King to your freakin throne or whatever"....yeah but that's it, ok destroy the ring...

Gimli: Do you know anything about what this subject Elrond, I man come on already!

Elrond: What was that Dwarf!? Excuze me Dwarf, what was that!!!! How DARE you speak to me of such manner, I'm the one who's talking ok. ME!!!......ok, so now we are discussing....something

Legolas: You don't know what this is about do you Elrond?

Elrond: uh....no.

[Daniel Telcontar]

In loth-lorien, Legolas listen to the elves singing.
"What are they singing, Legolas?" Merry asks.
"It is a song to remind Mithrandir. Their name for Gandalf. No, what?" Legolas listens puzzled.
"Oh my mistake, It is not about Gandalf. it is a song about ten bottles hanging on a wall."

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

[Daniel Telcontar]

The bridge of Khazad-dum. The balrog draws Gandalf with him in the chasm, and the rest of the fellowship flees. Then the camera shifts to the bottom of the chasm, where the balrog and Gandalf are sitting, drinking tea.
"Ah, Olorin, ol' buddy, how have you been?
I'm glad you finally came and visited me here in Moria. The only other company is orcs, and I mean, how deep a conversation can you have with someone how only can grunt? By the way, how do you like my cave? I've had a few thousand years to think of the decorations, and I think I have made a pretty good job. Want some sugar?"

[raci]

Legolas: "Let a ploughman plough, but choose an otter for swimming, and for running light over grass and leaf, or over snow - an Elf".
- With this he leaps onto the biggest snowdrift, eager and willing expression on his face.
CRUNCH!!! He falls straight through the surface while Merry and Pippin hop around singing "who ate all the lembas".
Gandalf sez, "For the last time, I don't care how fashionable they are in Lothhlorien, NO DOC MARTENS!" It takes them two days to dig Legolas out.

Its the best I could come up with now, OK! (mumble) I thought it was funny (mumble)

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

That was really good!

[ElanorGamgee]

(think of the scene in the movie when the Wraiths are closing in on the Hobbits at Weathertop)

The sky is dark. Lightning lights up the sky. Frightening music with the choir singing in the Orkish is heard in the background. The Nazgûl slowly surround the Hobbits in the tower, swords held forward. The frightened Hobbits draw their swords. The chief Wraith steps forward. With his piercing eyes on Frodo he reaches into the folds of his dark shroud and produces...a leather wallet. "Did you drop thissss?" he hisses at Frodo. "Why yes, thank you ever so much!" the Hobbit exclaims. Hastily he opens it and searches its contents. "Good, my I.D. is still there!" he says. "I haven't been able to get a good drink for months! Those idiots at the bar wouldn't believe that I'd come of age!" "Now, what would give them that idea?" Pippin asks sarcastically, rolling his eyes.

[Elenya]

Weathertop: Wraiths are gliding towards the hobbits, dramatic music, front wraith trips over cloak, sets off a chain reaction with the others, camera zooms over to hobbits, rolling on the ground laughing!!! smilies/biggrin.gif

Sam is running up the stairs in Moria (after Frodo has been captured), says the password, and enters. The Orcs are sitting in a pink room around a table having a tea party in poofy dresses. "Coffee or tea?" smilies/biggrin.gif

[Legolas'sLover]

*Mines of Moria, Balin's Tomb*
Legolas is fighting off as many orcs as elfly possibly. Then, one breaks his bow. He is dumbfounded. Aragorn screams," Legolas, Here!" and throws him a sword (you know his has to have about 20 extra ones). Legolas catches it, but, always having relied on his archery ablities and never actually learning how to fight with a sword, Legolas quickly drops it to the ground. He then crawls into a corner and assumes a fetal position, rocking himself back and forth.

Well, I thought it was funny!!!

[Nevtalathiel]

Or maybe, Aragorn throws the sword so hard that Legolas is knocked to the ground! smilies/biggrin.gif

[Nevfeniel]

The Orcs are sitting in a pink room around a table having a tea party in poofy dresses.
Orcs in poofy dresses? smilies/eek.gif I think I'm gonna have nightmares. . . smilies/wink.gif

[Thinhyandoiel]

At Tom Bombadil's Frodo has just slipped on the ring and is trying to creep away.

Tom: AHHH!! Where did Frodo go?! He just disappeared!
Sam: What are you talking about? He's right there. *points*

Me: *shrugs*

[Nevfeniel]

(In reference to Ralph Bakshi's version, where none of the characters could keep still)
Gandalf: The ring is evil, Frodo- whoops! *his staff flies out of his hand while making a wild hand gesture*

[suicidal elf chick]

Nyeep, you peeps are hilarious! And I would like some lembas, please! Here's my pitiful attempt to be funny like you guys:

(It's when Frodo, Sam, and Gollum are walking along, trying to get to Mordor)
Sam: I'm hungry, Mr. Frodo. Can I have a bit of lembas?
Frodo: Sure!
He opens his pack, finding that everything is gone and there is a note at the bottom.
Note: Ha! We has eaten all your stuff, masssster! And you had no idea who we are... Mua ha ha!
Love Gollum and Smeagol

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I realize how lame that was but oh well.

[mystra]

walks away, then suddenly races back to pippin and throws him in. rest of fellowship cheer.

not very good either...... smilies/biggrin.gif

[Armadoin]

I think this is more of a movie blooper, but it's all I could come up with.


Aragorn and Arwen are standing on the bridge in Rivendell kissing, when out pops Pippin with a rock in his hand. He throws it at Aragorns head, causing him to clench his teeth in pain; right on Arwens tongue. All the while, Pippin is laughing and screaming something about PDA.

Not too funny, but just dumb enough you have to laugh! smilies/biggrin.gif

2. Aragorn throws Pippin an apple and knocks him out

When Eowyn runs to help him, she notices his sword has broken in the fall.She gives Aragorn his sword and he says,"Gosh, and I just had it fixed back!!!Now I'm gonna have to wait thousands of years just to get it reforged.Gosh!!!" "Oh, well then leave my town cause your not a king anymore!!" replies Eowyn.(i know kinda corny, but its sorta funny!).

Saruman:The Nine will find the ring and destroy whoever owns it

[Nevtarmawen Greenleaf]

Eowyn: Will thou not let me go along with thee?
Aragorn:No, my lady, you belong here with your people.
Eowyn: I wish to go with thou Aragorn. I go with thou for the same reason your men do.
Aragorn: Oh really, and what would that reason be?
Eowyn:Your men, and especially I, love Legolas. Who wouldn't?
Aragorn:What?!?! I thought you loved me!!!!
Eowyn: Not unless overnight you grow long, golden hair, beautiful blue eyes, tall and.....
Aragorn: OK,OK!!!I get the picture. I guess I'm not good enough--
Legolas(out of nowhere): Eowyn, so you do love me?
Eowyn:Yes Legolas, I do!!
(they embrace each other)
Aragorn: OK, Legolas, your out of the Fellowship.
