I like 'Mr Pointy' myself! smilies/biggrin.gif
I'd probably call my sword 'Vanwalach, the Blunt and Cowardly'.
Vanwalach is elvish for Fred.
Not half as good as Mr Pointy or Bob the Idiot...

Hmm… You're right, it is a quite freaky. Maybe he is part Wooly Mammoth. He never seems to talk about his parents, he might be hiding something… smilies/biggrin.gif
Incidentally, does anyone know...

This would definitely seem to be the case when looking at Frodo and Bilbo… but Pippin seems to be more easily influenced. I think that when he drops the stone into the well in the mines of Moria, it...

Incidentally, is there such thing as a female dwarf on Middle earth? If so, what are all those male dwarves doing to the females? Are they kept locked up in a dungeon somewhere? I think there's a...

Replying to the original message:
There are some points there I suppose- but that person obviously didn't know what she was talking about! She could at least have found out a little of the...

Oh, it's not that I don't like poetry, but the comprehension questions that we get on it in English papers make it sound like every single word symbolises something else. It's those sort of poems I...

I don't like it either when we analyse literature too much in school- especially when we're reading it for the first time. Shakespeare's the worst. I'm just trying to enjoy the play and see the...

I read The Hobbit when I was seven, and loved it. I can't really believe a child of four could understand it though…
I read Lord of the Rings when I was nine. That was okay, I liked it, but I did...

[<BR>I thought the eye was pretty damn scary myself! If they'd made it actually look like a real eyeball, it would have been gross, and Dr Who-ish, not scary at all. They've just made it a bit more...

I liked the Balrog. What I didn't like was when they're just standing there, clearly threatened by this giant thing coming towards them , Gandalf wastes time telling them in a long-winded way that...

I'm glad they didn't have Bombadil in the film. I found him pretty annoying in the book, because he never stops singing! If I was Frodo I'd just be yelling at him to shut up half the time… I mean, if...
