Here's another one movie-related:

to helmsdeepen = to extend the screen time of your favourite scenes and /or scenes which you believe will add significantly to the comercial success of your based-on-a-book movie, in the detriment of other scenes.
One mustn't helmsdeepen the mushy scenes when making an Iliad adaptation.

Great Scot (exp) - Eomer of the Rohirrim.
Do I really need an example sentence?

It's quite obvious you only wish to get a rep from Eomer. Wherever you are, please don't succumb.

Gandal (v.) To do nothing of real importance throughout a lengthy plot, but somehow be crucial to it. Or to be integral to a group or party, without doing anything real to help it.

Use: He gandals at parties

Use: That man is such a ganda, it just wouldn't be fun without him.

Orc adverbs

Ugly - (adv.) condensed from "Uglukly", modifies verbs concerned with typically Orc-ish behavior. Ex: "Having slain a rider of the Mark at Helm's Deep, Smellybreath grinned ugly and brandished his orcish blade."

Ugluckily - (adv.) expanded from "Uglukly", modifies unexpected turns of Orcish good fortune. "Ugluckily for Grishnakh, the halflings' guards had been killed and they were totally defenseless."
