Why did Legolas have pointy ears?

Nevtalathiel · 05-12-2002, 02:45 AM

It was the result of a childhood accident with a mincer, he was climbing on the table in the kitchen, when he slipped and his ear got caught in the mincer. Fortunately, his ears were quite small, so only a little bit was cut off. He couldn't stand the idea of having uneven ears, so he minced the other one as well! It was so bad though, as at the time his Dad had been trying out his new camcorder and had caught the whole thing on tape. They sent it off to the television company and won a trip to Disneyland!

Who or what was the balrog?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 02:50 AM

balrogs are a rabbitlike race, that is being bred and sold as pets. They are especially popular, since they're meat is good, so if your childs pet dies, you just have it for dinner!

Why does Elrond never wear sunglasses?

Nevtalathiel · 05-12-2002, 02:59 AM

Elrond never wears sunglasses, but all the other elves of Rivendell do becuase of the glare from his oh-so-white teeth! Consequently, they always bump into everything and are rather bruised. Elrond, beign vain like all good elves, would never want his beautiful face to be damaged in any way, so he never wears sunglasses. even in the dark, the glow of his teeth is bright enough to stop him hitting anything!

Who is Ted Sandyman?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 03:02 AM

Ted Sandyman is the unionleader of the businessorcs. He handles all negotiations about wages, transport, distribution and so on. But due to a case of corruption it is uncertain wether if he stays.

Why is Galadriel so protective of her mirror?

Nevtalathiel · 05-12-2002, 03:05 AM

Well, as Blackadder once said "Talking to myself is the only way I can be sure of intelligent conversation". Similarly, Galadriel's mirror is the only way she can see what she considers to be true beauty.

How did Bilbo leave Bag End in The hobbit?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 03:07 AM

He took the plane to Bree, and from there on the train to Rivendell. But then there was not many options left, so he hard to use mountainbike to get to the Lonely Mountain.

Why are Pippin always hungry?

Susan Delgado · 05-12-2002, 03:32 AM

Pippens are small furry creatures commonly used as pets. They are always hungry because if their owners give them enough food, they go wild with too much energy and are very hard to control. If they're hungry, on the other hand, they are quite docile and loving, believing that if they are nice enough, they'll get something to eat. It rarely works that way, however.

Why did the Balrog attack the Fellowship?

Cimmerian · 05-12-2002, 04:36 AM

The Balrog had finally got clear reception of his favourite palatir show 'the lifestyles of the regal and deranged' when those pesky fellowshippers dismantled his receptor antennae on Darrowdelf.
He had waited for years to watch this show and his wrath at being denied was immesurable, it literally set him on fire.

How did the fellowship sans Gandalf find thier way out of Moria and to Lorien?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 04:41 AM

Luckily, Aragorn had just bought a GPS-wayfinder. When he got connected to the satellite, it showed them the quickest way to Loth-Lorien.

WHy did Galadriel give Frodo a phial?

Nevtalathiel · 05-12-2002, 05:21 AM

The phial of Galadriel was really a misspelling on Tolkein's patr and should have been a file. The present was actually a nail-file which should have been given to Legolas, in case he broke a nail fighting orcs!

Who did Sauron give rings to?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 05:30 AM

he gave 9 to the businessorc, as a seal of their deal, which is to transport flowers for Sauron's flowershop. He also gave seven to the hobbits as a bribe, so they would stop attacking his flower caravans. Three were given to his pet balrogs, since he liked to see the gold against their fur.¨
The last one he gave to his old buddy, gandalf, as a sign of friendship.

Where does Saruon live?

Nevtalathiel · 05-12-2002, 05:35 AM

Sauron lives in a retirement home for old "baddies" and tyrants. They go no day-trips to Tortureland and at the weekends, they get to eat real flesh puree.

How did Bilbo steal the treasure from Smaug's horde?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-12-2002, 06:05 AM

He presented himself as a salesman for a dwarf-cleaning firm. The dragon, admitting that the place was dusty, agreed to let the dwarves clean his house while he went out for a short flight. But when Smaug returned, the dwarves had taken it all.

What is a nazgûl?

Aosama, the Wandering Star · 05-12-2002, 04:21 PM

A nazgul is the finest delicacy available on Middle Earth. I have not had the pleasure of tasting it, but I have heard that it tastes like strawberries pureed with whipped cream, vanilla, caramel, and white chocolate. As a result, it is slight pinkish. But this treat is rare, being hard to make plus it must be refridgerated. Since there are no refridgerators in Middle Earth, the only nine nazguls ever made went bad, and started to chase short people on horses and stab them.
Nazgul1: Short guy!
Nazgul2: Chase him!
nazgul3: Yay!
*later*
Nazgul5: With our cool special effects, we will stab you!
Frodo: Ouch! I'm being attacked by my desert! I knew there was something gone terribly wrong with the school lunch ladies' experiment!

What relation is Sauron to Sam?

Susan Delgado · 05-12-2002, 05:51 PM

Sauron is Sam's landlord. He owns Bagshot Row, Michael Delving, and about half of Buckland. One day Sam decided his rent was too high. He heard about this trip someone was putting together to get rid of the crabby owner, and, well, you know the rest...
----------------------------------------

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-12-2002, 09:43 PM

Lanniae of the Axe · 05-13-2002, 03:44 PM

A: After the WotR, Aragorn, who's power had gotten to his head, sent all five of them off to Senior Citizen's Homes where they got sponge baths and played bingo for the rest of their lives.

Q: How old was Frodo Baggins at the age of the WotR and how did it effect the outcome of his Ringbearership?? (huh??)

Susan Delgado · 05-13-2002, 07:14 PM

Frodo was a doddering old fool of 400 or so. See, that's why he had to have help getting rid of the ring; he was so old that when he got to the brink of the chasm, he fell asleep! Someone had to do it, so Gollum and Sam flipped a coin and Gollum lost.

What heirloom did Boromir carry around with himself?

ElanorGamgee · 05-13-2002, 07:52 PM

He wanted an excuse to get drunk and he invited the Italian Ambassador and a dog.

What is the standard currency in ME(being serious now, does anyone have any sort of money?)

Cimmerian · 05-14-2002, 07:58 AM

The standard currency on ME was the Mordorian Flapjack from the mints of mount doom.

----------------

What kind of elf was Legolas?

The Laurenendorian · 05-14-2002, 08:11 AM

Legolas wasn't actually an elf - he was a hobbit who had been disinherited by his family, the Proudfeet, because he had a beard. He managed to turn this beard invisible, but the treatment had the unforseen side-effect of making him grow to well over 6 feet. He was welcomed back into his family until they discovered that the beard was still there (when he caught it on some ceiling rafters), at which they banished him forever.

How many times is the definite article ("the") used in the film?

Nevtalathiel · 05-14-2002, 10:51 AM

(On the money thing, there is a thread about it somewhere, I'll have a look and see what I can come up with)

Actually, the word "the" is not used at all in the films, as no words were allowed in which contained the letter "e" to make it more of a challenge for the script-writers.

Who owns the inn in Bree?

Lanniae of the Axe · 05-14-2002, 03:11 PM

Gimli! He and his father happen to own a chain of them all throughout northern ME from Erebor to the Shire. This guy knows his ale!

Merry · 05-14-2002, 05:54 PM

Sam's first impression was that Strider was a pesky CNN reporter following them around covering their whole quest.

Q:Whole is Celebrian?

ElanorGamgee · 05-14-2002, 06:02 PM

Celebrain is a well-known Elvish pop star who performs all over Middle-earth. The Fellowship got front row seats to her concert before setting out from Rivendell.

Why is Gollum so afraid of the Elves?

[ May 14, 2002: Message edited by: ElanorGamgee ]

Lómelindi · 05-16-2002, 06:04 PM

Because when Gollum was a little kid they beat him up and stole his marbles, baseball cap, and lunch money.

Who or what is the Lord of the Nazgûl? (Oh the possibilities…)

The Nazgul is a million acres of lush, grey land dotted with tall spruce and pine trees.
The real estate values of this paradise are astounding and the man in charge, Gill Bates, is fondly referred to as The Lord of the Nazgul.

How did the first meeting of Strider and Lurtz go?

Thinhyandoiel · 05-16-2002, 11:57 PM

Heh..I've never been here before..I'm laughing so hard!!

When Aragorn and Lurtz first met, they had a nice little tea party and invited all the woodland creatures for tea and crumpets. Afterwards, they played Monopoly.

What happened when Bilbo first found the ring?

Nevtalathiel · 05-17-2002, 06:15 AM

When Biblo first found the ring, he used it as an attractive belly button ring, as it was so shiny and bikini season was just around the corner! However, a magpie pecked out the ring while Bilbo was sun-bathing in the garden and dropped it on Sam's head.

Why did the balrog make Gandalf fall into he chasm as well?

[ May 17, 2002: Message edited by: Nevtalathiel ]

ElanorGamgee · 05-17-2002, 07:21 AM

The Balrog happened to know that the dwarves had built a spectacular theme park at the bottom, and he didn't want to ride "The Dragon," Middle-earth's scariest roller coaster, all by himself.

Why did Bilbo never marry?

Gimli Son Of Gloin · 05-17-2002, 07:51 PM

He was a woman in disguise.

Who exactly was the Witch King?

Lindolirian · 05-17-2002, 09:17 PM

The Witch King was actually Bilbo when he got bored and felt like scaring lil hobbit lads and lasses. When he got drunk he took it a little far and killed a few people not to mention destroyed Arnor. That Mad Baggins, ya gotta watch out for him.

What is Aragorn's birthright?

Nevtalathiel · 05-18-2002, 11:03 AM

Aragorn's birthright was the right to remain silent, which he occasionally did. He was also granted the right to free speech, but chose to give it to Pippin, so that he could endanger the lives of the hobbits in Bree.

Who did Araorn marry?

Daniel Telcontar · 05-18-2002, 02:40 PM

Aragorn was always trying to expand his kingdom, so he married Sauron's daughter, Cruella De Vil. This way he got the power of Mordor, since he soon after made a plot that got rid of Sauron.

The Fellowship got front row seats to her concert before setting out from Rivendell. ----- Why is Gollum so afraid of the Elves?

The real estate values of this paradise are astounding and the man in charge, Gill Bates, is fondly referred to as The Lord of the Nazgul. -------- How did the first meeting of Strider and Lurtz go? __________________ IN STEEL I TRUST, BY CROM!

When Aragorn and Lurtz first met, they had a nice little tea party and invited all the woodland creatures for tea and crumpets. Afterwards, they played Monopoly. ~~~~~~~ What happened when Bilbo first found the ring? __________________ In gwidh ristennen, i fae narchannen I lach Anor ed ardhon gwannen Caled veleg, ethuiannen

However, a magpie pecked out the ring while Bilbo was sun-bathing in the garden and dropped it on Sam's head. Why did the balrog make Gandalf fall into he chasm as well?
