Lotr parody - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The_Hand · 06-15-2003, 06:21 AM

has anyone been to <A HREF="http://www.angelfire.com/sk/sharkens/" TARGET=_blank>http://www.angelfire.com/sk/sharkens/</A> ? They have made the best ever parody of lotr. I think they should make a movie out of it! Don't you agree? Or do you hate it!? I laugh until im rolling on the floor it's so funny everyone that's seen the movie or read the books should be reading this as well.

I haven't read it yet, but I do love parodies- more than the real thing, usually. It would be great to see a full-scale parody movie, although I doubt its likely.

Nice . I like no I just love parodies . Good for reading Only I was shocked for the pop-up window which said something about me being the 10.000.000 visitor or so and that if I call in the next 200 seconds I get a prize - 2002$ for a trip to somewhere . Ofcourse I did not call for it was all so wierd and a total bull**** . Uuuuups.Not about topic . But hay a really good site only I have not the time to check it out intierly .

I like parodies, as long as they're tasteful and good. I got a forward once (but I believe I lost it T_T) that was The Lord of the Rings in less than three hours. That was HILARIOUS. Best parody I've ever read. It was only for the Fellowship, but I think I saw it later for TTT. I've bookmarked the site you listed, and will try to read it later. ^_^

One of the best parodies of LotR I've read is <A HREF="http://www.stupidring.com/" TARGET=_blank>here</A>. The Stupid Ring Parody includes all 6 books of the trilogy and they are all hysterically funny. Plus, there's lots of other stuff on the site (be sure to check out Lord of the Pants and Elijah's Doom).

I enjoyed the Stupid Ring except I would have enjoyed it a whole lot more if it had been less crude. One can only stand so much slash and sexual humor, and I have a low tolerance level for that. Of course, I have to find the <A HREF="http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1154364" TARGET=_blank>Funniship of the Ring</A> & <A HREF="http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1229394" TARGET=_blank>pt. 2</A> parody the bestest 'cause I co-wrote it. I don't think I read the story at TolkSarc, I'll have to see...[ June 22, 2003: Message edited by: Oddwen ]

I think my favorite parody is <A HREF="http://www.barrowdowns.com/fanfiction/vainder-dude01.asp?SeriesID=12&SeriesPart=1" TARGET=_blank>Dude, Where's My Ring?</A> It is really funny.
