Darn MSN.
I feel better now. ^^ My throat still hurts however. My head hurts, but not to such an extent as before. I doubt this was helped by reading the entire of the fourth book of Lord of The Rings (the second book in The Two Towers) in about 2-3 hours. ^^; I was bored.
FARAMIR IS NOT THE EVIL BASTARD THE FILM PORTRAYED HIM TO BE!
O.o;;
*snickers* I've gone mad.
I was just reading a LOTR survey I found somewhere and I'm so very tempted to fill it in... o'.'o
You, Legolas, alone in one room. What do you do?
Keep asking him if the rumours about him and a certain Ranger are true. ^^
You, Arwen, alone in one room. What do you do?
Kill her. ^.^ She tried to come between my favourite couple, what can I say?
We sadly lost 3 when he fell into....ummm...ok, we just lost him.
Oh... ok. ^^
What gift would you ask of the Elves?
Hm... A pretty ring. And Legolas and Aragorn plushies.
What race would you most like to be?
An elf! I want pointy ears!
Honestly...would you keep it secret, and safe?
Yes. Unless someone offered me a large sum of money. Then probably not.
If you would keep it secret and safe, would you be the Ring-bearer, or would you swear to protect the Ring-bearer?
I'd protect him. I don't want to be cursed with Elijah Wood's eyes.
Ok, you are the Ring-bearer, who makes up the Fellowship with you (of your friends) and if they're enough like a character, say who they'd be:
Gandalf: Estel
Sam: ...*shrugs*
Merry: Tegan
Pippin: Becky
Aragorn: Kris. (He's tall and has weird hair.) (Not really weird hair.)
Legolas: Becky. (Yeah... I put Bex twice. Only coz Legolas and Aragorn are meant to be together... be glad I didn't cast Aragorn as someone else...)
Gimli: Jason ^^ Couldn't resist.
Boromir: Pyro
Ok, you're not the Ring-bearer (but you are in the Fellowship like above), who of your friends would be the Ring-bearer?
Estel-chan! You know you'd love it!
Are you evil? Evil enough to become a tool of Sauron?
Of course. ^_~
If you had to be one of the nasty/evil creatures (i.e. the Balrog, the Cave Troll, an orc, Ring Wraith, etc) what one would you be, and why?
Ringwraith. *goes starry eyed* Those guys rock!
If you didn't know the Ring was The One Ring, but you knew it made you disappear and such, what would you do with it?
Sell it. Or go round freaking people out by creeping up behind them and yelling 'Haaa-yaaah!'
Pippin and Merry - are they really okay guys, or just big nuisances?
I like them in the book. They're cool. *nods* I mean, they helped figure out Frodo's plans... In the film... They're painfully annoying in FOTR, but I guess they're better in TTT.
Who kicks the most ass: Gandalf, Legolas, Strider, or Gimli?
Legolas!
Would you rather be an Archer, Wizard, or Ranger?
Archer.
Who's your favorite character?
In the book, Frodo, Pippin, Merry, Legolas; in the movie, Legolas and those cool guys who march into the Black Gate. ^.^ So cool!
Apparently, question seventeen was killed needlessly at Helm's Deep.
Haldir shouldn't have been there...
If, for some odd reason, Aragorn and Legolas were to get in a fight, who do you think would win (and why)?
It'd be counted as a draw. *smirks* Because after a while, they wouldn't be fighting, so to speak.
Do you think the race of men is weak?
In the movie. Not in the book. But movie angsty-Aragorn leads to much angstiness. ...That didn't make any sense.
Does it make you sad to know the Elves are leaving these shores?
Yeah. They're cool.
React to this: Frodo lives!
Dammit!
If you've read the book and seen the movie, did you like both, or do you think one was better than the other?
I like them both, the books more. The books had clever Merry and Pippin, Legolas with good lines in FOTR and a decent Faramir. the movie had slash and the cool evil guys. You know who I mean.
Do you think the movie was an insult to Tolkien's genius?
Maybe. Maybe not.
Any problem with the cast?
Merry and Pippin. I seem to have a grudge against them in the movieverse.
Honestly...do you think Liv Tyler did a good job as Arwen, or are you glad she's in the movie just because she's hot?
No. She didn't. But it helped make Elrond look mean and pyschopathic.
What do you think of the choice to cut Tom Bombadil?
Good. ^^
Was the Balrog all you had hoped for?
Suppose so.
Any other changes from the book to the movie that irritate you?
Well... I've mentioned almost everything. :P Elrond being weird. Haldir being there. Arwen being there. Aragorn being... angsty.
How about that special-edition DVD, pretty cool, or no?
Indeed. *purrs happily and strokes DVD* Chu~
Lastly, what was your favorite bit of the movie?
TTT, the bit where Legolas looks over the edge after Aragorn's looked off. ^^ So cute. And their reunion. What exactly was he late for? O.o And you know if Legolas hadn't been so stupid and give Aragorn the Evenstar back, they'd've ended up kissing. And most of Legolas' lines. '...Or do you want me to get you a box?' How did he say that and still keep a straight face?!? And the cool evil guys who almost go kill Frodo and Sam if it weren't for those cool lorien cloaks.
FOTR: To be honest... I can't remember. I've been going on so much about TTT that I've forgotten. Probably when I told Pyro that Faramir was played by the same person as Boromir... in the cinema, whilst Boromir was dying. ^^
