Make sure you get the two by Arthur Rankin-Jules Bass. They are a couple of the best cartoons I've seen. It starts with The Hobbit <BR> <A HREF="http://www.bcdb.com/bcdb/detailed.cgi?film=27844"...

So what happens now, is it over?

How about we start one for different races? Being a Dwarf, let's start with them. smilies/biggrin.gif

Perhaps they were a corrupted form of Ents? Since Melkor could take things that were made and twist them to his whim. Maybe they were a more powerful form of trolls? The trolls in "The Hobbit"...

I agree. And besides, it would sound stupid as "The Purple Arrow"

I just thought of something that proves (at least in my mind smilies/tongue.gif) why it couldn't have been Gollum. I have little doubt Gollum didn't fear Moria (he was tortured in Barad-dur,...

I thought that was a Ringwraith? It could've been Gollum I suppose, but it seems more likely to be a Ringwraith. The way it's written I doubt it was Gollum though. Because Aragorn says later

Good question. I agree with Ainur, Gollum was probably following them from the first day in Moria. It's highly probable the orcs didn't know he was there, (remember Pippin and the well?) so he...

Elves, fairies, pixies, gnomes, and whatever else is out there have, IMO, been stereotyped so long that whenever people think of them they automatically assume that the fantasy creatures have pointy...

I liked "The Two Towers" best. I especially liked the part with Shelob. (Which is ironic because I hate spiders smilies/biggrin.gif)

I think she didn't come out for 2 reasons.

1. She hated the light.

2. Spiders squish really easily. If she wasn't "working" for Sauron, she'd have been made into bug splat.

Or on the...

Sting Dwarf Wraiths

I was just curious, why weren't there any Dwarf ringwraiths? Most likely it's because the Dwarf rings were just designed to increase wealth (I think that was the main purpose) and greed. But could...

Ouch, a painful thread we have here. I was wondering why he didn't just cut the chain or whatever was attached to the manacles. In the Hobbit, Gandalf cuts the chains with little or no effort. ...

Ever seen Predator? Personally I think fire might have had a similar affect on the Nazgul.

Although I really have no clue. Maybe fire does hurt them. Because Aragorn said on Weathertop,

Spiders.

I doubt they're "man" eating in the sense that they only eat people (like lions who have tasted human flesh). I'm sure the spiders would've eaten anything they could get their claws on. ...

I'd have to say it's a draw between Smaug and Chrysophylax. They are really the only 2 dragons that have depth to their personality. All the other dragons are usually just described as cunning and...

Most likely I would've tied him up too, but there's only one problem with that. Sam only had the Elven rope from Lorien, and Gollum gets burned/frozen from the pureness woven into it. Gollum would...

Most likely I would be Glorfindel or Faramir. I always thought they needed to be more important than Tolkien wrote them. Well Faramir anyway. smilies/biggrin.gif
