*(In the following caption, the old picture refers to the picture seen above, since the shot above
looks like a worn and faded picture. This caption is Gandalf and Bilbo happening on this picture.)* Gandalf: "Oh, Bilbo! Look at this old picture I found!" Bilbo: "Oh, that was a long while ago! Back when we were still in Middle-Earth!" Gandalf: "Yes, those were tough times... I wonder how we were ever able to smile like that?" Bilbo: "I'm not sure either; all I remember of Middle-Earth is dark and unpleasant." Gandalf: "Well, at least we are happy here in Valinor; and it looks like we were once happy there, too." Bilbo: "Yes, a good thing to remember: happy then and happy now.... Have you ever thought about going back for a visit? " Gandalf: "Oh, no. No, no, no. I am not allowed, for my work is done. Besides, they do not sail back over the Sea." Bilbo: "Huh. Well, after seeing that photo, it doesn't seem so bad anymore. I would very much like to go back. See the Lonely Mountain again... wander the paths of Mirkwood.... visit Rivendell... (sigh)"Gandalf: "Oh, I've heard that before! You stopped at Rivendell and just ended up coming here." Bilbo: "Well, I never did get to do the other two things, and I'd still like to." Gandalf: "I'm sorry, but I really don't think that that's possible. But you might ask Manwe if you are so desperate." Bilbo: "Hmm. I might have to do that.... But that will be later. Back to chess for now. It's still your move." Gandalf: "What? Oh, yes! Chess...." *(sorry for the length)*

Gandalf: What's the matter, Bilbo?
Bilbo: You know when you blew my door through my hole and out through the side of the hill? Gandalf: Yes... Bilbo: Well, you also knocked out the toilets. OR Gandalf: What's that light? Bilbo: Oh, nothing, don't worry. It's nothing. Gandalf: Wait a minuet! That’s my cart! On fire! FRODO! I told you to look after the cart!

Why is Bilbo smiling?
Bilbo (thinks): If I smile and stare at him, eventually he'll go away.
OR Gandalf: Grandpa, what big teeth you have! Bilbo (turns into a werewolf): The better to eat you with! OR Bilbo (thinks): Just keep smiling . . . he won't notice you just broke Shadowfax's leg. OR Bilbo (thinks): Why is he still here? My face is tiring already. Why won't he go away? OR Gandalf: Bilbo, why is my cloak pink? What did you do to it? Bilbo: Why, nothing!

Bilbo: "Yippee! I love it when you Big People come to visit! it means you bring Big Food! Look at this Iced Bun, it's a foot long! And that cabbage is bigger than Lotho Sackville-Baggins's head!"
OR For Phoenix Nights fans: Gandalf: "Garlic Bread?!" Bilbo: "It's the future!"

Bilbo can't wait to test out the new rockets he has installed in Gandalf's chair without his knowlege.

Bilbo: You didn't?
Gandalf: I did! I told Saruman if he wants to keep his whites white, he’d have to stop putting it in with the colours. All that Saruman of many colours stuff, poppycock! Bilbo: Ohhh! I can imagine his face!

hopefully no one has done this yet, no time to check...
Gandalf: "You guessed wrong."
Bilbo: "You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slighly less well-known is this: never go in against a hobbit when the last meat pie is on the line!! Ha ha ha ha ha!! Ha ha--" |

Bilbo didn't know weather to be happy or sad when Gandalf told him that The Ring was made of chocolate.
OR Bilbo: Gandalf the grey! Don't take me for some cooker of cheep cakes! I am not trying to poison you! I'm trying to help you!

Far into the future, someone stumbles upon a old, worn-out original of the FotR. The movie is almost too brittle to play, but they watch it, and fall in love. Moral of the story: Tolkien's world will always be loved.
OR Gandalf: "Bilbo, are you alright?" Bilbo(trying to act macho): "Oh, yes, I'm fine. It didn't hurt at all." *cringe from pain* OR Bilbo can't help but laugh when he notices that a rat is residing in Gandalf's beard. OR Bilbo, in a stroke of genius, replaced himself with a cardboard cut-out. The result is Gandalf sitting there talking to it for two days.

Bilbo smiles as Gandalf reveals a new picture.
 Denathor: Keep looking! That needle is in here somewhere! OR Faramir: I'm not dead! Denathor: You will be in a minuet! Faramir: I feel happy! I feel happy! Denathor: Shut up you!

Little did the Gondorians know that what they would burning would actually turn out to be the ent wives.
or Denethor: Order! ORDER! Yes, thank you. The first annual meeting of Pyromaniacs Anonymous has come to order.

Denethor: Now tell me, where is the hidden rebel base!
Or Denethor was like any father, he liked to make sure his son was sleeping soundly, so he could light his bed on fire.

Pippin: Denethor! It's dangerous to start such a fire inside. The Fire Marshall would be furious if he knew.
or Denethor revived Faramir using CPR so that he would be alive for his impending pyre.

The guy in the front: You see young Halfling, this is but a passing stage. My lord will get over his need to see his son die in just a moment, you'll see, there's no need to get stressed.
Pippin: This is normal!?!

Pippin: Isn't this a little harsh?
Denathor: Not at all! Now, Faramir, apologise for bringing me cold tea! OR Denathor: Setting Faramir on fire will be the best April fools joke ever! Pippin: Where is the joke? Denathor: You and your technicalities!

Unfortunatly, Smokey the Bear wouldnt' be lecturing in Gondor until the day after
or Denethor: Now remember boys! For the history book: Me and Faramir single handedly killed all the orcs, and we killed Sauron (remember boys, that's a key one). But then, we were betrayed by Aragorn, and he burned our bodies! You got all that? Guard: Uhh... Denethor: Ok. It's not that hard. Can you give me a hand here? *guard walks over* *Denethor super glues the guard to the fire* The guard tripped! You all saw it

Pippin becomes a member of Denethor's new cult.
Or... Denethor: Faramir, before I burn you alive, I want to tell you something....I am your father! Or... Denethor: Any last requests before you die? Faramir: You lay Pippin to burn beside me. Pippin: What...NO! Or... Faramir: Dad why's there smoke in here? And why am I covered in oil? And why am I laying on a pyre? Fangurls: (watching) OMG!!! Faramir in oil!!! Denethor: Must you ask so many questions...hush and go to sleep

The lengths Faramir would take to avoid service in the Gondor Cadet Corps were, by any standards, impressive.

Faramir was debating his choice for Pledge week
or Pippin: No! Stop! Stop burning him! Legolas: My danger senses are tingling! To the tombs! *two minutes later* Legolas: Oh my Gosh! Denethor is going to burn Faramir Faramir:  on second thought, keep it comming!

Faramir: I'll bet Boromir never had this trouble.
OR Guard: Stop everything! My cat is in here somewhere! Denathor: Aww, well, be quick about it. OR yet! Denathor: Now Gandalf, you'll never uncloak again will you? Faramir: For the last time! I'm not Gandalf! Denathor: Keep your forked tong behind your teeth! Oh yeah! I always wanted to say that!

Faramir would often lie on his back, letting his pet hedgehog Ralph snuffle about him; unfortunately, that's just what he was doing on the day Ralph unexpectedly sprouted to mammoth proportions.

On his first day with the Gondorian Police, Pippin comes upon the remains of the Second Little Pig's House of Sticks.
Soldier Policeman: "Clearly, this Second Little Pig did not run to his brother's house. Can we attribute his death to the wolf?" Coroner Denethor, bending over 'the Second Little Pig': "There are no wounds on the body. It must have been the shock."

Denethor: "Confess! It was you who stole my last bottle of Old Winyards. I can smell it on your breath, son! How far do we have to go before you confess?"
Faramir: "Never! It washn't me. It wash Boromir what did it! Hic. "

Faramir's right to die?
Denethor: "I will keep my promise Faramir, I will not prolong your existence in a coma. We will be cremated just as soon as we're good and soaked with oil."
Pippin: "He's not dead! You haven't let him have proper treatment!" Denethor: "Quit your fanaticism, Halfling! Death is actually a beautiful thing. He wouldn't want to live this way and I can't bear to live without him. Thus I will die side by side with him."
