I hope this is a joke...

Thanks for the link. That was hilarious.

Everyone here in the computer lab was glaring at me a few minutes ago because I couldn't stop laughing. I was in the mood for something funny and that hit the spot!

Why didn't they take horses on their quest? Or even better, why didn't Gandalf's giant flying bird friend haul them into Mordor? Watch out, Frodo! All of your methods of transportation have been swallowed by the Dark Lord of the Plot Hole!

We've had discussions about that here on the Downs.

So Bilbo, who we are supposed to identify with as a protagonist, finds a piece of someone else's jewelry and just keeps it for himself? That's funny, because I would expect a good man to submit it to the local Lost and Found so it could be claimed by its owner. It makes me wonder if he bought that hillside house or if he was just squatting.

Ouch! That sure hurts the Baggins' good name.

Legolas shoots arrow after arrow at his enemies, and yet the number of arrows in his quiver never decreases. I guess elves have glands on their back that secrete arrows.

Of course they do.

Too many characters to keep track of. The dwarf was clearly only there as a token dwarf character to sell tickets to lucrative movie-going dwarf demographic. Lose him.

Why, in part 1, is the black octopus creature painted as the bad guy when it attacks, when one of the fellowship had clearly been throwing rocks at it?

Hee hee! That's too funny.

Casting.

Why couldn't Frodo have been played by Christopher Walken?


Casting, II.

Why couldn't Gandalf have been played by Bruce Campbell?


Casting, III.

Why couldn't Bilbo have been played by Vin Diesel?


Casting, IV.

Why couldn't Strider have been played by a monkey?

Also, everyone should check out Lord of the Rings vs. The Matrix vs. Star Wars. It's very entertaining.
