Me too! A couple of old schoolfriends and I are (painfully slowly) "remaking" LOTR...we've reached the Council of Elrond.

So far I've got myself the roles of Butterbur, Aragorn, Arwen and Boromir...one my friends is Sauron, Bilbo, Frodo, Pippin, and Legolas, while the other is Isildur, Gandalf, (a "gangsta rappin' wizard", somewhat to my horror, but undeniably amusingly), Sam, Merry and Gimli (in "prosthetics" consisting of all the overcoats and scarves in the house.)

Oh, and the Nazgul? Their dread number consists of two extremely threatening looking black cats, (quite difficult to film, but with rewarding results!), several black teddy bears on strings, and a badger handpuppet.
