I'm hating myself right now because I can't remember who it was but, some celebrity person called her daughter "apple" !
I kind of agree with Boromir 88, about the pets. My friend actually has a...

This ones from the film; when the fellowship (minus gandalf) enter Lothlorien and Celeborn says "The dwarf breathes so loudly, we could have shot him in the dark."

Silmaril Butterbur at Bree

I'm not sure if this thread belongs in novices and newcomers but I'll ask you all anyway!
ok, so it says in the prologue to the fellowship of the ring, that the prancing pony has been owned by the...

Silmaril It doesn't take much really

Maybe this is a little demanding but I think a true fan must read the books thoroughly a few times and also see the movies. :D

I'd probably just explore a lot, visit elves, meet Gandalf! I would have a party, that of Bilbo's 111 birthday party! I might just "borrow" the one ring and sneak around a bit, just to see if...

Silmaril Oh! I'm the first answer

I think ents are usually destroyed by the peoples of middle-earth. As in The return of the king, Saroman sends orcs to cut down some of the wood from fangorn (did he know they were ents?) They were...

I've never seen it. It sounds cool though, I like the Tolkien input there. When I first saw the title of the thread, I thought it was about the hobbit (barrels out of bond) as it is how they escape...

Silmaril Hard to remember

I was 6 when I first read the hobbit. I was 8 when I read the fellowship of the ring, I was also 8 when I read the two towers, and I was 10 when I read Return of the king (it didnt take me two years...

Silmaril Hey! great thread

I think Gandalf was wrong to hide truth from Denethor, as Gondor is his city. And Denethor was being very stubborn so I doubt they could have won without the help of either of them. So Gandalf should...

I don't think they would have won without Gandalf's help, and the riders of rohan. I don't think Gandalf thought they could either because he said "when the sun rises, look to the east" where he...

Gollum! I'm very secretive and my rooms kind of dark, like Gollum's cave but not as wet. I am very determined too, as Gollum is. Have you ever tried a lotr personality test? You answer loads of...

I hope to play on that when it comes out. There is something similar to that called runescape (though not as good because its not lotr) If you like fantasy computer games, its good. I can't wait for...

Not much, can you count the silmarillion, as it is by Tolkien. I like the Chronicles of Narnia, The mabinogion (welsh fairy tales, i think thats how you spell it), Harry Potter could be counted as...

Well, He didn't know about it untill Gollum was captured. And when he sent nazgul to find Bilbo, he became aware of different parts of the shire. Merry, has a kind of vision of what would happen to...

I like the sound of Rohan, Mirkwood (sounds creepy) Minas Morgul, Stoors, Isildur, nazgul, fangorn and the westmarch. Mostly because they are all very original names and not at all typical of...

I have two other Best Friends and one of them is as nuts on lotr as I am, the other is not so much. So me and my friend were talking about Barrow-downs and she said "What's so good about lotr, I...

Silmaril What a coincidence!

I do that a lot! I had a science exam and I think the question was something to do with making wine and fermenting etc. I was supposed to write the word "wine" and put "brandy" in front of it to make...

Is there such a thing as Albino hair? Because most elves have white-blonde hair which is close enough isnt it? Elven folk are supposed to be fair of skin, so I suppose you could call them albino. It...

If I were to call a son/ daughter something from lotr it would be because of what it means rather than being a character. For example, Aragorn. I would name my son this, because it means 'white...
