OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I couldn't believe that line made it into the movies. I recall yelling "DUH!" from my seat in the theatre.

What really makes me laugh is that I have friend - Orly fans, of course - who try to convince me that he wasn't suddenly getting it he was explaining it for Gimli's benefit. (hehe as if that makes it better anyway)

So much for the "wise" prince of Mirkwood.

One wonders why we needed the 'cute guy' to state the obvious - was this to keep the audience members, who were dragged there by their boyfriends, 'in' the movie?

"Oh, then it's to be a distraction then. Huh. Good thing that that blonde-haired guy's there to keep me up to date...is this movie over yet?"
