The Barrow-Wight: "Well, technically there are already 20 different threads on this topic, but hey-the more the merrier!

The Saucepan Man (now): "Why didn't the Eagles just fly Frodo to Mount Doom?"

The Squatter of Amon Rudh: "Since the movies have been such a big hit, I think the books are now out-dated & useless. I am burning all of my copies & encourage you to do the same."

Mister Underhill: "You know Barrow-Wight, I was just thinking...wouldn't it be nice to add a section for unTolkien-related discussion on the bd?"

Meela: "Denethor who?"

Any Bder: Any comment that portrays this line of thinking: The Books, by J.R.R. Tolkien; based on the movies by Peter Jackson (well, no one should be posting like that )



And in the words of King Theoden: "More will come."

Audreidi: Eh, I agree. The books are useless. I especially love how they screwed up when Shelob was supposed to appear. Besides, we don't really need books anymore. We can just sit in front of a beautiful box and let our brains rot.

Jandalf: Yeah...I don't really want to be orange anymore. And I already disowned my Padawan, and divorced Obi-Wan. You know, I think I'm just going to quit being a Lord of the Rings and Star Wars fan and have a real life. Who's up for some gardening? Let's watch reality TV; it's so enlightening and serious.

Eowyn Skywalker: Oh, good. I hated chatting with Jandalf on MSN anyway. And I don't really want to marry Anakin. Conspiracies are so boring. I think I'm going to apply for a spot on Survivor and sell everything that remotely resembles a computer in my house.

Indeed. The word you are searching for is irony.

obloquy - I say Legolas's hair is probably more of a 'peachish beige' or 'cherry-maroon' colour.

obloquy : "Actually, forget that last remark. I'm not too interested in Legolas's hair colour at all. Who in their right mind would contemplate that aspect of Legolas when we could be discussing how essential he was to the plot. Let's face it, he carried the story during the first two books. Tolkien was basically giving him a break in RotK, however he still found time to give him several witty and distinctive lines. A true character for the ages."
