Frodo in "Eight Legged Freaks." Please don't tell me I need to explain why.

Belin 07-26-2002 04:09 PM

I can just see Turin and Gwindor in Clerks.

Turin: I'm cursed, my father's disappeared, I've been kicked out of Doriath, I smell like orc-blood, I killed my best friend, my ex-girlfriend is dead, my wife is catatonic after talking to a dragon, besides turning out to be my SISTER, and on top of everything, I'm not even supposed to BE here today!!!!!

Aragorn and Arwen in "A Walk to Remember"...? Ack, I love that movie! ^-^

(Arwen smugly turns about and gets into her car. Just as she turns the ignition key, she looks up and sees Aragorn standing in her path, leaning against his crutches. He limps to the side of her car, and as she rolls down the window, he smiles suavely.)

Aragorn: Say...are you feeling polytheistic today?

(grins) Okay, as to my contributions...

Bilbo and Smaug in "Dragon Heart." Bilbo as Bowen and Smaug as Draco.

Bilbo: Hey, can you help me out with this fire? (Smaug plugs up one nostril and sends a ball of flame out the other. It hits Bilbo, and he runs around screaming and waving at his backside.) ACK!! I'M BURNING, I'M BUUUUURNNIIIIING!!
Smaug: Oh, goody! Hobbit le flambe! (grins and hums excitedly to himself, waiting for his "dinner" to properly prepare itself)

The Green Ringwraith 07-28-2002 08:48 AM

LOL! good ones, all good ones!

Hm, Arwen's parents, Arwen and Aragorn in "Father of the Bride"

-"B-but he's not even an ELF!!"

Talking Hawk 07-28-2002 06:25 PM

(Snorts at "Father of the Bride.") Thank you.. =)

Frodo and Sam as Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum in Independence Day. (You know that one scene where they fly off the planet in the alien spacecraft?)
Frodo: Yeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
Sam: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! (searches desperately for his air sick bag)
Frodo: (finally calms down) ...I've been waiting for this my whole life...
Sam: What? To get yourself killed?

Aragorn and Arwen in Miss Congeniality. Arwen is Sandra Bullock, and Aragorn's..uh...what's his name?...Brad Bratt or something?? Well, he plays her partner!
Arwen: (walks out of the airplane garage all primped up with music playing in the background)
Aragorn: (gawks at her)
Arwen: (trips on her high heels)
Aragorn: (shakes his head) Yep, that's Gracie..!

Catherine 07-28-2002 07:38 PM

These are so funny. Um.... I guess I have one but its not that good: Nevermind its not good.Oh well. I will think of one.

Ithaeliel 07-28-2002 07:40 PM

His name was Benjamin Bratt, and you forgot my favorite line!!!!

Aragorn: Man, Vick, what have you done to her? Is that you, Arwen?
Arwen: I'm in a dress, I have gel in my hair, I haven't slept in two days, I'm armed, I'm starved, DON'T mess with me. *trips*
I lllllllloooooooooovvvvveeeeee that movie!

Talking Hawk 07-28-2002 10:24 PM

(Cracks up.) We can have a WHOLE lot of fun with THIS.. (mischievous grin) (Oh, and Catherine, give it a try! You can't be all that bad. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

(Aragorn, Legolas, and Frodo are sitting behind a television screen as it shows the image of a large dining room that Arwen's walking into. She is brought to a table by Miss Rhode Island and is introduced to the ladies there. Miss Texas, Miss California, yada yada yada... Then..finally!..)
Miss Hawaii: (uuhh...don't know how to describe it..) Aloha..
Aragorn, Legolas, and Frodo: (grin) AloooohaaaaaaaAAAAAAAA..!
Pippin: (pops up from behind them) Aha! She digs ME!
Aragorn: Be quiet, you insolent hobbit! You're not even in the movie!
Pippin: (cries)

(snorts..)

Frequency - Frodo as the son and Aragorn as Dennis Quaid.
Frodo: (on the radio) Dude, you're alive!!!
Aragorn: No duh. Now, about those Mets...

Never Been Kissed - Legolas as Drew Barrymore and...um...Rosie!...as the English teacher. Oh, and Pippin as Annita. (laughs)
Legolas: (having lunch with Pippin) Sure, I've kissed girls before..! (pause) I've just never felt that...that thing...
Pippin: What thing? The Sweetest Thing?
Legolas: Nooo... I can no longer pursue that conversation because Talking Hawk doesn't watch R-rated movies. (cough) NOW... (gets a far-off look in his eyes) That thing.. Where all you can think about is you and that person. You want to laugh and you want to cry because you're so happy that you found it, but so scared that it'll go away.
Pippin: (long pause) ....Dang, boy, you ARE a writer!
Legolas: Duh. (continues eating)

Eol 07-28-2002 11:34 PM

heh something a little better

Elrond in The Matrix...not too big a jump, but hey it works.

Talking Hawk 07-28-2002 11:55 PM

"Something a little better"..? o_O Huh? Translation?

Lady_Galadriel 07-29-2002 12:22 AM

[img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Ooohh ooohhh!! Those are sooo funny! My fav is miss Congeniality!!! That would be funny

The Green Ringwraith 07-29-2002 08:52 AM

Er... *thinks* OO!!!!! FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF!!!!

Tarthang 07-29-2002 10:47 AM

Any Hobbit in "Over the Rainbow." Although it's been year's since I actually saw the movie, I don't recall anyone having a Hobbit name. Or particularly any movie with the vertically challenged making an appearance.
And to continue where Lush left off...Sam Gamgee in "Eight Legged Freaks" (though I've yet to see the movie, so maybe Sam's in it somewhere).

Talking Hawk 07-29-2002 10:50 AM

The four hobbits as the Jamaican Bobsled Team and Bilbo as Coach Blitzer in "Cool Runnings."
(The team is standing in front of their first "bobsled," deciding who sits where.)
Bilbo: (Chicago accent) Okay, Pippin, you sit there in the middle..
Pippin: (grins proudly and sits down)
Bilbo: Merry, you sit there.. (points to the spot behind Pippin)
Merry: (growls and begrudgingly climbs in) 'Ey, don't touch me! Don't touch me!
Bilbo: (thinks) This is going to be a very loooooong training session... (turns to Sam) Now, you're the brake man.
Sam: (Jamaiican accent) Da brake man?! But I'm da driver!!
Bilbo: NO, you're the BRAKE MAN.
Sam: I'm da best push-cart driva in all of Jamaiica! I MUST drive! (leans face in closer) Do ya DIG where A'm comin' from?
Bilbo: Yeah, I dig where you're coming from.
Sam: GOOD.
Bilbo: Now dig where I'm coming from. (blah blah blah) You see, Sam, the driver has to work harder than anybody! He is the first to come to practice, and he is the last to leave. He is ALSO responsible for the other sledders' lives. NOW, do YOU want that responsibility, Sam?
Sam: I say Frodo should be the driver.
Bilbo: (grins at a apprehensive-looking Frodo) So do I, Sam. So do I.
Sam: (climbs into the brake man seat) Hmmm...cozy!

And then right before the competition...
Sam: (to Merry) Do you want to kiss my lucky egg?
Merry: I ain't kissin' no egg!!
Sam: Hmph. (kisses his yellow egg)

(laughs..)

Galadrie1 07-29-2002 05:32 PM

LOL! These are hilarious!!! How about all the main characters in Gosford Park? Frodo would be the guy who grew up in an orphanage.. and... uh... other people would be the other characters [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Talking Hawk 07-30-2002 10:12 AM

Thank you. =D Okay, here comes the big 'un...

Legally Blonde. (Well, in the case of this segment, it's changed to Legally Brunette...)
(Pippin as Elle Woods and Merry and Sam as his friends. Diamond as West Kunnington the third AKA Elle's boyfriend.)
Pippin: (sitting on the floor looking through a bunch of exam books)
Merry: (passes down the hall with Sam) Now, I'm telling you, eye liner THEN mascara...
Sam: Like, no way! Mascara's first.
Merry: (looks into Pippin's room) Pip...what ARE you doing?!
Pippin: (grins) Studying for the ELSATS!
Sam: ....???
Merry: (whispers) I hear it's what it's called when you get implanted hair...
Pippin: (smiles and shakes his head) No, no no. GENTLEMEN, I'm goin' to Harvard!
Sam: You mean like on Ve K?
Merry: (gasps excitedly) Let's all go!!
Sam and Merry: Like, ROAD TRIP!! (scream and bounce around the room)
Pippin: I'm going to HARVARD LAW SCHOOL.
Sam and Merry: (stare at him in disbelief)
Sam: .........WHY?

(snorts) I don't think of the Fellowship as cross-dressers or homosexual, just so you know... o_O I just didn't know how to translate all that stuff into guy stuff.. Hm. o_o

Yerniel Vénea 08-01-2002 09:45 PM

Let me try!

Gimli, Legolas, and Aragorn as Charlie's Angels!!!! Can't you just see them doing martial arts with high heels on! HA! And then in girly voices say: Good morning Charlie! Haha!

Losthuniel 08-09-2002 03:54 AM

i got one: Smaug as Mushu (Mulan)

Manwe Sulimo 08-15-2002 09:00 PM

Ooohh...here's my lame attempt:

Sauron as Lord Voldemort
Frodo as Harry Potter
Sam as Ron what's-his-name
Gandalf as Dumbledore
Galadriel as that strict professor lady
Saruman as Snape
Bilbo as ???

Brinniel 08-15-2002 09:24 PM

How about Rat Race?

Nick-Sam
Tracy-Eowyn
Tracy's boyfriend-Faramir
Maril-Arwen
Maril's mother-Galadriel
Owen-Aragorn
Dwayne-Merry
Blaine-Pippin
Enrico-Frodo
Donald Sinclair-Elrond
John Lovitz's character-Boromir
John's character's wife-Rosie

Boromir: So is this like a race?
Frodo (with Italian accent): He said race! I hope I win.

Marileangorifurnimaluim 08-16-2002 10:29 AM

Here's an evil idea: Sam, Frodo, Merry, Pippin in The Sorcerer. Hey, wait-a-minute, that's not that much different from Mordor - ! We'd have to figure which characters get bumped off.

Brinniel 08-16-2002 01:14 PM

Ooh, here's an idea!

Bandits:
Joe-Sam
Terry-Frodo
Kate-Galadriel

(Galadriel has just hit Frodo with her car and is now taking him to the hospital. A very confused Frodo points his gun at Galadriel and tells her to pull over.)
Frodo: You pull over and get out of the car.
Galadriel: You don't have to get all huffy about it. It was an accident!
Frodo: Listen. I'll shoot you with this thing.
Galadriel: Oh, go ahead. It'll be an improvement, believe me.
Frodo: Listen to me I'm a desperate man.
Galadriel: Desperate? You don't know the meaning of the word. Desperate is when you wake up in the morning and wish you hadn't. It's knowing that every time you get behind the wheel of a car, you're only a tree away from ending the empty charade that your life has become. So don't talk to me about desperate!
Frodo: Listen. On second thought, why don't you just pull over and let me out right here? I'll walk from here.
Galadriel: No.
Frodo: Why?
Galadriel: I'm feeling very fragile at the moment. I don't think I should be alone.
Frodo: You're insane!
Galadriel: I'm unhappy. It's not the same thing!

A bit long, but I thought it was funny.

Gimli Son Of Gloin 08-16-2002 06:19 PM

Aragorn instead of Han Solo. Ughh!

Merri 08-16-2002 09:02 PM

Legolas as Spiderman, and Arwen as . . . whoever Kirsten Dunst played. Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha. Not funny [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]. Um . . . Frodo and Sam in Men in Black II . . . Gimli/Sam/Merry/Pippin as Austin Powers with um . . . um . . . Gollum as Dr. Evil??

Manwe . . . how about Bilbo as Hagrid? [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]:

Oh, and I forgot: Frodo as Anakin Skywalker, and Galadriel as . . . what's her name- the one Natalie Portman played. *gulp*
