New dudes and dudettes: Most annoying things about LOTR. - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Assasin · 01-23-2005, 08:22 PM

Hi, fellow new dudes. I hope you had your coffee today, cause I don't like people like me that have bad moods. (I don't really have bad moods, most of the time, anyway.) I want to meet some dudes, so PLEASE write a reply.
I think all the little comments that Legolas makes are annoying, he states the obvious. And, I think ents are annoying, because they always tell hobbits to shut up unless they have something worth while to say, and I like saying stuff that's not worth while.

I don't find anything about the books annoying and I love the Ents (myself not being one for pointless small talk and yet sometimes being longwinded, especially when talking about Tolkien). Anyway, to you and any other newcomers, welcome to the Downs I am sure you will love it here. I was never one for forums or anything that involved social interaction until I joined a month or so ago and now I spend most of my time here.

Plz do not double post ( I don't think that is aloud, well on other forums it isn't). And I don't think Ents are annoying they are cool, ok cool is a big word, but I love them

First, I think we need to be careful about keeping this thread on topic.

Secondly, Assasin I have a question about your original post:

Are you thinking of the movie or the book? Movie Legalos did have some annoying lines, but I can't think of anything like this with book Legalos.
Could you give us some examples, both of your problems with Legalos and with the Ents? It would be easier and more productive, I think, to respond to some specifc examples.

Thanks.

Okie dokie! I am talking about the movies. Ex. Treebeard: Don't be hasty!
and all the time he said that nothing is worth saying unless it's worth taking a long time to say. They really changed all of the characters in the movies. Bormir wasn't so mean in FOTR.

Ah well the movie did screw up on a lot of characters, Legolas being one of the bigger ones. But I don't think they were far off with Borimir, Faramir yes but not Boromir. Elrond was the one that really annoyed me though.
