PJ on trial for 'Crimes against Tolkienity !

[Nimrothiel]

*after the swearing of the oath in the court of book purist law; another accuser steps forward: Nimrothiel of Rivendell*

Nimrothiel: "Right honorable Judge Lindil, I request permission to speak against the accused."

Judge Lindil: "Granted. Proceed with the accusation."

Nimrothiel: "Mr. Jackson here has not only deviated far from the original storyline, but he has severly altered the personalities of the characters. Aragorn was not a 'reluctant king,' he knew of his lineage and he was proud to undertake the quest of regaining his kingdom."

*murmurs of assent echo in the room*

Judge Lindil: "Order, order! Proceed, Nimrothiel."

Nimrothiel: "Thank you, your honor. Not only this, but he has greatly enhanced the role of Arwen Evenstar, and turned Gimli the Dwarf into a comic relief character much as George Lucas did with Jar Jar Binks in 'The Phantom Menace,' and with the same lack of approval from the fans."

*roars of outrage abound; Judge Lindil is hard pressed to restore order*

Judge Lindil: "Order, order!!!! Have you anything further in your case against the accused?"

Nimrothiel: "Yes, his endless misleading line that the 'Ring-bearer will lose his life.' A Ring-bearer does die, but it is not Frodo Baggins as Mr. Jackson shamelessly leads the public to believe. This is outright blasphemous against the works of the esteemed J. R. R. Tolkien, and he who would deliberately manipulate and destroy his works for the sake of an insignificant statue should be hanged!!!"

*complete chaos erupts in the room; some time passes before order can be restored*

Judge Lindil: "Order, order I say!! Nimrothiel of Rivendell, have you anything further to say?"

Nimrothiel: "No, your honor; let others have their say against him. I pity any who would defend him."

(By the way, this is hillarious!!!!)
