Question:

What was Galadriel really looking for when she did the whole "let's look into your minds, little ones, and see what we can see" thing in Lothlorien?

Lush 06-23-2002 04:47 PM

She was really looking for the numbers of their bank accounts, so that she could fleece them later. Hey, she needs to pay her bills somehow, and it doesn't help that Celeborn is a househusband with no outside job whatsoever.

What animal did Elwing turn into, and why?

Uialellethwen 06-23-2002 04:54 PM

Elwing turned into an bat. Isn't it obvious? He did it so that he could get some fresh blood. He never get's anything nice...


If that's good enough, how was Frodo related to Merry? (Or was it Pip?)

ElanorGamgee 06-23-2002 05:09 PM

Well, Frodo actually claimed that he was related to Pippin, Merry, and Sam because of a goofy blood brother thing they did one day when they were all really bored. They each cut the end of their finger so that it bled a bit and rubbed the fingers together. The others just roll their eyes whenever Frodo explains how they are related since he's convinced that the blood brother thing is legitimate.

How did Bilbo meet the Trolls?

Nevfeniel 06-23-2002 05:15 PM

Some dating agency set them up. It was not fun. Bilbo's date "William" had no table manners and when they went to dinner, the troll insisted on Bilbo paying for the very large meal that "William" had. Afterwards, "William" wanted to go out for ice cream, then spilled the Mordor sundae they were sharing (since Bilbo was running out of money) all over Bilbo's new waistcoat. Bilbo was not pleased with his date.

Why did Eowyn want to go to battle?

GreatWarg 06-23-2002 06:56 PM

Simple: Eowyn wanted to battle because she had mental problems. It began when she was a baby and Theoden accidentally dropped her, which made her dad really mad so he kicked Theoden, causing Theoden to trip and crash right onto Eowyn, who but being a baby, just got a real mental problem. Then she heard the Nazgul and thought it was her mommy calling her, so she went along just to find her 'mommy.' Merry sensed that Eowyn had mental problems, so he just went along with Eowyn to make sure she didn't do anything crazy. Unfortunately, she did decide to try killing her 'mommy' because the Nazgul screeched and she didn't like the 'song,' so Merry had to help her.

Why did Sam marry Rosie?

Uialellethwen 06-23-2002 08:04 PM

Simple. Sam impregnated Rosie when he first got back from The Quest, and when her father, Tolman Cotton, found out, he made Sam marry his daughter. Sam and Rosie had a "cross-bow wedding", and shortly after, they had their first daughter, Elanor. Why did Gandalf refuse to take the fellowship through Moria?

Isn't it obvious? Gandalf was afraid of the dark. He always had his night-light on in his bedroom.

Why didn't Thingol want Beren to marry Luthien?

Salix 06-24-2002 12:22 PM

Because Beren was soooo boring and he talked waaay too much, and Thingol couldn't stand to listen to Beren for more then a minute so he sent Beren to look for a Silmaril just to get away from everybody in Doriath could get some sleep. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Salix 06-24-2002 12:23 PM

Oops forgot the question. Why did Sauron help the Noldor make the Rings of Power?

Uialellethwen 06-24-2002 04:36 PM

  • Sauron helped them, because he thought that he could get a good discount on a wedding ring afterwards. After all, he did want to marry Saruman.
  • Why did Steward Denathor II try to burn his son, Faramir, to death?

Why did Galadriel want Frodo to look in her mirror?

She couldn't find a polite way to tell him that he had a humongous zit on his forehead, and wanted him to see for himself.

Why did Eowyn and Merry want to kill the Witchking?

[ June 24, 2002: Message edited by: Susan Delgado ]

ElanorGamgee 06-24-2002 10:02 PM

The Witch King was Éowyn's ex-boyfriend, whom she hated, and Merry had a crush on Éowyn, so he decided to help her kill the Witch King in order to impress her and get rid of any chance that the two could get back together.

How did Lotho gain power in the Shire?

Liriodendron 06-24-2002 10:44 PM

Lotho hypnotizeded his fellow hobbits with Lobelia's silver spoons. Once hypnotized, Lotho order the hobbits to turn over all pipe-weed and taters to him. After that it was a piece of cake!

What was it that Treebeard liked about the young hobbits voices? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

The Ent liked the way they pronounced their 'O's' and 'A's' in their perfect hobbit accents.

What is Barliman's occupation?

Ithaeliel 06-25-2002 06:56 PM

He may look like a fat innkeeper, but in reality he's one sexy night club singer. The ladies are all over him. (believe me I just typed that with a LOT of effort.)

What is up with Morgoth? How come he's so mean?

Nevfeniel 06-25-2002 07:10 PM

It's a deep, psycological issue that comes from the fact that he never got a hug from his parents and he was scarred for life because of it. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Who in Middle Earth loved kittens most of all?

Ithaeliel 06-26-2002 05:28 PM

Wouldn't ya believe it, it was Grisnakh. He had such a bad case of kitten codependency, he almost didn't leave home to travel with the Uruk-hai. (Probably shouldn't have, because now all his poor, poor kittens are homeless [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img])

Who was Morwen? What role did she play in the whole deelie?

Uialellethwen 06-26-2002 07:09 PM

  • Why did Saruman call himself Sharkù and try to take over the Shire?

Lómelindi 06-26-2002 07:31 PM

Saruman tried to take over the Shire because it is situated on top of an absolute ocean of oil reserves, and he thought that hobbit houses were nothing compared to black gold. He thought Sharkú sounded more powerful, and would have a better edge to it when he was introduced as an oil mogul.

How was Middle-earth created?

Daniel Telcontar 06-27-2002 02:46 AM
