Did Frodo ever said something to Pippin concerning his behavior at the Prancing pony(of revealing the name of Baggins and almost about the Ring) after this event occured?
If he did, what did he say to Pippin?

Gwaihir the Windlord · 03-07-2002, 01:07 AM

I'll hazard a guess at No, he didn't say anything to Pippin after the events at the Pony.

Narya · 03-08-2002, 02:32 PM

I think so either, although I´m more a Elf than a hobbit [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
I´m not sure, but I say no because Frodo was maybe too ashamed about what he did and because there was no time.

Nefwathiel Teleri · 03-15-2002, 08:26 PM

He never said anythihg to pippin after the incedent in the Prancing Pony. Not in the movie and not in the book. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Mr. Frodo · 04-21-2002, 04:41 PM

I don't remember him saying anything to Pippin about it. I mean, what would he say? 'Pippin, I, the guy who just put on the ring and dissappeared after falling off a table in a bar, am very dissappointed in you for almost attracting attention to us.'

Susan Delgado · 04-21-2002, 05:05 PM

Point!, Mr Frodo [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Elven-Maiden · 04-24-2002, 01:43 PM

I've always imagines Hobbits looking somewhat similar to dwarfs, but without beards and cute feet. How come no one seems to know what a hobbit is along the journey?

Arwen Imladris · 04-24-2002, 02:09 PM

It seems to me that dwarves tended to travel more. They would to go from their mountains to other places to show off their gold and jewls, and sometimes sell or trade them. hobbits rarely traveled, but prefered to stay in their own little area (the shire).

P.S. was that a trivia question?

Dior · 04-24-2002, 03:25 PM

No, that was not a trivia question, it belonged in "the books", so, um I'll ask.

What is Farmer Cotton's wife's name?

Hanna_Gamgee · 05-03-2002, 04:59 PM

She is called Mrs. Cotton. I cant find her first name.

Lómelindi · 05-03-2002, 05:23 PM

Farmer Cotton's wife's name is Lily, isn't it?

Dior · 05-06-2002, 05:51 PM

Correct, Lomelindi.

Lómelindi · 05-06-2002, 06:13 PM

Cool. Well, since I'm rereading TTT right now, I'll spring a question from that. Good luck, fellow periannath.

While he is with Merry in the Fangorn Forest, Pippin talks of a peculiar behavior of one of his relative to describe how the forest makes him feel. Who was the relative, and what act of his did Pippin describe?

Hanna_Gamgee · 05-06-2002, 07:24 PM

Pippin says the forest makes him feel dim and stuffy. It reminds him of the old room in the great place of the tooks away back in the Smials at Tuckborough: a huge place, where the furniture has never been moved or changed for generations.

Lómelindi · 05-06-2002, 07:50 PM

Correct.
Your turn to post a question…but don't let our heads get too big for our hats, here.

Hanna_Gamgee · 05-07-2002, 08:30 AM

How do the Hobbits evade the Ringwraiths at the Prancing Pony?

Hope nobodys asked this yet.

Arwen Imladris · 05-07-2002, 02:10 PM

Hmm, I'll take a stab at it.
They put stuff in their beds to make it look like they were in them, and then went out into the hallway, or room of somesort and barred the door. They slept there with Strider keeping watch.

Hanna_Gamgee · 05-07-2002, 03:06 PM

That was right. Your turn to ask a question.

Arwen Imladris · 05-09-2002, 03:14 PM

Oppps. sorry

How about

What is the name of a cousin of Sam's that supposedly saw a tree walking around (entwife?)

Lómelindi · 05-09-2002, 05:52 PM

It was Halfast "Hal" Gamgee, Samwise's cousin, who said that he encountered a "Tree-man" while hunting in the Northfarthing.

Merry · 05-10-2002, 04:56 PM

earlier in this thread someone asled if Frodo said anything to Pippin when Pippin started talking too much. Everybody said he didn't say anything. Actually he does say something. He says "Pippin" I think to get his attention. O.k maybe I'm getting too technical but I just wanted to say he does say something in the movie.

[ May 10, 2002: Message edited by: Merry ]

Arwen Imladris · 05-17-2002, 09:19 PM

Yup Lómelindi, you are correct!

Your turn [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Lómelindi · 05-17-2002, 10:24 PM

We need something slightly different for the little hobbitses, yesss my preciousssss…

What is Meriadoc (Merry) Brandybuck's true name?

Dior · 05-17-2002, 11:41 PM

Kalimac something or other.

Lómelindi · 05-18-2002, 10:32 AM

That's the first name, correct Dior, but I'm going to be picky and say I want the full name because it's not that difficult to find or figure out.

Lindolirian · 05-18-2002, 11:55 AM

Funny pic Lomelindi. What is Merry licking though?

Dior · 05-18-2002, 04:48 PM

Fine then, Kalimac Brandagamba.

Lómelindi · 05-18-2002, 06:19 PM

Fine then, Dior. You're correct…all the way ths time.

Lindolirian: Merry's licking his sword. It's from an article in some Swedish magazine. (I just hope it's a candid and not a screencap.)

Rose Cotton · 05-22-2002, 04:04 PM

Do we have to go in order or can I ask a question?

Dior · 05-22-2002, 05:17 PM

In the vale between what two rivers did the Fllohides first dwell?

Lómelindi · 05-22-2002, 11:02 PM

I assume you mean the Fallohides, and they dwelt between the Greylin and the Langwell rivers.

Dior · 05-23-2002, 09:17 PM

Yeah, the Fallohides. You're right.

Lómelindi · 05-23-2002, 09:37 PM

What is the ancestral name of the Gamgee family?

Arwen Imladris · 05-28-2002, 11:55 AM

Was it something like Gamwich?

Lómelindi · 05-28-2002, 04:20 PM

You got the first three letters right…it's really not that hard.

Arwen Imladris · 06-04-2002, 02:11 PM

Gamgee?

Lómelindi · 06-04-2002, 05:52 PM

For the sake of keeping the thread alive…the ancestral name of the Gamgee family is Gammidgy.

Whoever wants to continue the thread can take it.

Arwen Imladris · 06-06-2002, 02:13 PM

Ohhhhh! O.K. I knew it was something like that and when you said it was easy I thought too easy! Oh Well!

Next Question:

In what part of the Shire did the Brandybucks live?

Lómelindi · 06-06-2002, 04:44 PM

Appropriately, the Brandybucks lived in Buckland, an area in the far southeastern part of the Shire, on the very edge of the East Farthing. Brandy Hall, their main dwelling, was across the Brandywine River––crossable by Buckleberry Ferry––and was situated on the edge of the Old Forest, by Crickhollow and Newbury.

Aldagrim Proudfoot · 06-07-2002, 12:02 PM

Who were the hobbits who patrolled the borders of the Shire?
