Glenethor, I'll second the apologies for overrunning the forum, just wanted to expand a bit on the Marilean...'s (sorry, I can't spell it from memory) question. I don't actually remember too many specific lines - a lot of it was probably funnier to us then than it would be now (if nothing else because we tended to, ahem, honor our various bottled heritages while watching). There was definitely a lot of "Aruman" "Who?" "Saruman!" "Oh, why didn't you say so?". Similarly with "eDOras" and "E-doras" - "We're going WHERE?" Lots of pleading with Aragorn and Boromir to please put some pants on - "HUZZAH!". Sam came in for a lot of it, especially at the classic line "There's that Mt. Doom again, Mr. Frodo." (Dratted mountain, it's been following us for the last hundred miles). Scooby-Doo jokes for Galadriel, and the Nazgul most of the time, especially the flight to ford when their horses are obviously out of control, also when they breathe the black breath on Merry and then just *leave* without even searching him. "Wait, I heard some sirens! Get outta here!" The cartoon scene where the Ring is bouncing down the rocks in the Misty Mountains and looks exactly like a Wintergreen Lifesaver. "To keep your breath fresh for 500 years, try..." <P>I could go on, but I'm probably depressing everyone. I highly recommend it if you want to veg with some friends for an evening, though .
