You guys are brats!! I wish I WAS so clever! I thought I had the names RIGHT! I know that word, too I looked at it several times and wonder why you are laughing at me By that time, I can't even edit my post because it is quoted! Now, I give up because Missy is probably going to see it anyway Just another thing my family will remind me of for years I guess. My hubby about split a gut last after noon when I showed him and knowing my love for all things slightly toilet related he thought is was especially hysterical.

hmmm...let's try another approach YES, I was making fun of the silly names and did it on purpose!! hahaha - fooled you!

Nana nana boo boo
Stick your head in doo doo!

There now! My kids can see their prim and proper mum making a total fool of herself, no matter HOW you take it
PS - I am MUCH worse at Cat General

Debbie - I knew you thought that was the right name -that is why I laughed so hard. I didn't have the heart to correct you either - LOL!! The worse part is one weekend we were getting Cinemax for free from DishNetwork and hubby and I decided to watch some movies - GOOD GRIEF! It was all porn and the one we turned to was a knock off of LOTRs and the girls name was Dildo Saggins. I was in tears laughing. Of course we turned the channel right away - I was also blushing. Anyway, your faux pas brought back the memory of the movie and I about went into hysterics. Of course I didn't think you had been watching Cinemax late at night.

Deb, I am in a state of SHOCK!

giggle.giggle...giggle....

[Kirsten]

Debbie, I knew you wouldn't have assumed Mr. Tolkien using such a name for one of his characters!

FizzGiggs_Mommy, I agree, Orlando Bloom and especially Viggo Mortensen ARE hot!

MariaM, I guess I'm obsessed as well! I've got the three theatrical versions on dvd, I've got the FotR and TTT SEE, I've got all the cds with the music (it's so beautiful and sad at the same time), I have the three theatrical posters on my wall and two maps of Middle Earth, and I'm collecting these new LotR tin figurines, even though I cannot affort them!



Oh, and of course I've got the books!

[Kirsten]

BTW, may I introduce the latest addition to my collection? Gimli the dwarf:


The details in these figurines are amazing!

Kirsten

[sirrahbed]

Well, I am not collecting anything yet - though the figures DO look very detailed and impressive
BUT - I want you to know that my hubby found a LOTR website where I have been studying the names of the main characters (including Frodo and Bilbo Baggins ) and we are watching #1 TONIGHT!!! Popcorn, pizza and everything!! We plan to see the whole trilogy this Memorial day weekend!! Aren't you proud of me now??

PS who is the character played by Gwyneth Paltrow - I could not find her...?
Also, I KNOW Gimli!!! He is part of Darin's clan and he makes friends with the elves!!

[Kirsten]

Thanks for the link! I haven't seen that page so far, but it looks very good and informative.

Ahhh, have a lot of fun this weekend with the three movies! I guess after that you will recall Frodo's and Bilbo's name for the rest of your life and you will never mess them up again! LOL

BTW, Gwyneth Paltrow is not in the movies. Liv Tyler is, she's Arwen. And Cate Blanchett is Galadriel.

And yes, Gimli became a good friend of Legolas, the Elf - who is played by Orlando Bloom who is really hot, but not as hot as Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn, Strider), you'll see...

Whew! Just finished #1 and saw all that I slept through the first time at the theater I was VERY captivated this time. It helped that I knew the background having studied the website and having a thorough tutoring from hubby last night on the background of Hobbits. Kirsten - the elf that I thought was Gwyneth Paltrow was Cate Blanchett as you thought. Sure looked like her! I did NOT think Legolas was very "hot" - not my taste at all - but I can look at Aragorn anytime (VERY nice )
Just taking a quick break and about to start #2 - can't wait!!

I warned my hubby - I NEVER do ANYTHING halfway - soon I will be decorating with Middle Earth posters and attempting to speak Elvish! Gotta go!

[Uabassoon]

I haven't gotten it, I'd rather hold out and get the extended edition.

[MariaM]

Lol yes Legolas is VERY hot and Aragorn is OK but not really my taste, a little too old for me. (well...Legolas is like...2 930 or something but....) Anywho. Legolas is so cool and I love him and I am totally obsessed with him and Orlando Bloom!!!!!! SO.....BACK OFF and go take Aragorn lol.

[sirrahbed]

OK Maria - YOU can have Legolas and poor Aragorn....well, I could probably be his mother! But I can LOOK I'm not dead ya know!
snicker snicker Actually - I prefer Boromir.....

PS #2 was WONDERFUL and #3 is later this afternoon!!!! This is a LofR Memorial Day weekend We are going to borrow the extended versions of #1&2 from my oldest son to watch as well

[Kirsten]

Well, Aragorn is just right for ME!!!

I'm probably too old for Boromir, too...Gandalf perhaps? ewwww Nah...I bet Boromir likes *mature* women! I saw that actor in one of the Tom Clancy movies...Patriot Games maybe... and he played a real rogue..I LOVE that type!! BAAAD BOYZZ

Oh he does not look his best in that movie. I never thought he was good looking as I'm not into blond haired guys...but He normally has dark curly hair and looks a lot, lot better! Did you see Pirates with Johnny Depp - he was in that? He may still not be your type , lol, but thought I'd let you know

And something else that's funny is the actor that plays Aragon is gorgeous, but he he looks much better all scruffed up and dirty - not so great clean shaven!

[MariaM]

Yeah, I don't like aragorn, but I think the character looks WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than In real life. However, with Orlando, I love him no matter what kind of hair he has! It's cool with a mohawk too! Anything!!!!!

[slleipnir]

I love Viggo, he's awesome XD I got the DVD the other day
