What do you assign to Orthanc?

Akon.

He's got the most amazing voice, and he uses it to sing sexist crap.

Taking a print of the last few posts from an RPG or the last action from a ww-game at school and then dropping into my corner Czech pub (pivnice Hádanka - quite a nice place) on my way home to have a beer or two (or three) to read them through and think / write my responses.

I love it and I hate it.

And as some have already noted: cigarettes... I can't be without them and I hate them so much at the same time.

Also all the (quasi)historical spectacles: Gladiator, Troy, Alexander, The Passion of Christ, The Kingdom of Heaven, The Last Samurai... and PJ's LotR certainly. How bad they are as movies go! But I love to watch them anyway... 300 is already on the theaters but maybe I'll wait for the dvd. I'm pretty sure I will disapprove most of it but will still jam to my sofa to watch it.

And on that note, "graphic novels", especially by Frank Miller.

I'll second that - they perhaps are too 'graphic' for the Shire...

I'm a late comer to this area of fiction, much to the hilarity of many people I know with my novice knowledge of the comic world, but all hail to Neil Gaiman's Sandman ("We're not worthy! We're not worthy!") series for reeling me in, Hook, Line and Sinker. Plus the very marvellous V For Vendetta - "Alan Moore knows the score...can you dig it?" Indeed. Shame they are sooo expensive though.

Plus, the X-Men films. My very favourite super-hero films of all. But Magneto? Why???

Also another addition to Orthanc for me is Wayne's World - I can watch those films over and over and over and still laugh my pants off. Aurora Illinois just looks like the coolest place to live...Denied!

I assigning listening to (and enjoying) Aqua.
