Who was dumb enough to film the Fellowship treking across Caradhas? I mean, like shadowing the Fellowship and filming their every move then selling it as a film is just phsycotic.

It was Bill the Pony - he had a hidden camera on him, then at Moria he planted a camera on each of the members of the Fellowhip wihtout them noticing.

Gandalf of course! There's only room for one wizard...

Why did the Easterlings give the people of Rohan the name "Strawheads?"

Because, like the commercial on many american televisions...they did not condition their hair to the silky softness of the Elves, in fact, they never conditioned at all!!!(<----hmmm....)

..::Who was Sauron and what did he have to do with the making/destruction of the ring? *Be creative!!!*::..

It's a shameful misconception. His right name is Ron. He's a kind of chubby kid, hence the added "sow". He found a pretty little ring in his crackerjacks box. Quite a delight, that all the mean kids wanted to take it from him. The ring was stolen by a bully nicknamed Hob 'cause of his limp. Hob bit Ron, gave him an atomic wedgie, then threw the ring into the school furnace. Now Ron cries with his teddy and blanky behind the "bare-red-door" of the school office.

What style of clothes would the blackriders choose if they could?

i think maybe their favourite colour is pink. And purple. and yellow. So i guess maybe they might have a pink frock with purple polka-dots and green stripes.

They aren't stupid, it's just harder for them to keep up with others (I hope I haven't offended anyone. I tried to be as nice as possible).
..::Where did JRR Tolkien get the idea for LotR and The Hobbit?::..

an angel thingy popped down from heaven and nicely told him that he was meant to be a literary genius by now and he'd better get on with it. Tolkien said he didnt have any ideas, and so the angel kinda prompted him a little.
