Is it a book quote or movie quote?
 
I don't think something quite like this has been done yet. If it has, please point me in the right direction.

Here's the game: You try to identify if the given quote is from the FotR and TTT books or movies. Here is a handy link in case you don't have the books or movies memorized:Seat of Kings, but please don't use this to find a given quote. Also, give the name of the character who you are quoting, we're not trying to guess who said it, but where.
If you guess it right, your next!

Here's the starter:
Gollum: I found it, I did. Orc's don't use it, Orcs don't know it. Orcs don't cross the Marshes, they go round for miles and miles. Very lucky you came this way. Very lucky you found Sméagol, yes. Follow Sméagol.

Good luck!

This is from the TTT book.

Airehiriel 03-05-2003 04:06 PM

Sure is! Your turn Rochelle.

Rochelle 03-05-2003 04:13 PM

Hmm..

Eressië Ailin 03-05-2003 04:27 PM

I know that there's something similar to that in the book, but I'm pretty sure it's in the movie. Either way, it's in TTT.

GaladrieloftheOlden 03-05-2003 04:28 PM

I am not sure, as I have not seen the movie or read the book for three weeks now, (that must be corrected!) but wasn't this quote both in the TTT movie and book?
Oh, oops. I just noticed someone already said it. O well.

Arvedui III 03-05-2003 04:35 PM

It's the movie. The book quote is (and I'm sorry if I get this wrong but I'm too lazy to go and get my book) "your figers would remember their old strengh better, if they grasped a sword-hilt."

Rochelle 03-05-2003 10:50 PM

This quote was in the movie. Arvedui III I think had the most precise answer [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your go!

Airehiriel 03-07-2003 08:35 AM

Arvedui III, do you want to take the next turn? If not we can let someone else do the next.

Airerûthiel 03-08-2003 03:40 AM

If Arvedui doesn't want the next go, can it be my turn? I have a really good quote...

Airehiriel 03-10-2003 11:13 AM

Well, it has been several days since Arvedui posted, so I would say, yes, Airerûthiel you can do the next. Thanks!

Airehiriel 03-14-2003 10:55 AM

Airerûthiel, go ahead and post yours.

Airehiriel 03-26-2003 02:50 PM

Okay, ANYONE can go next!!

Airehiriel 04-16-2003 08:05 AM

Fine, I will start this one up again myself.

Book or movie quote? And to make it a bit more than just answering book or movie...who said it and to whom were they talking to?

Be careful, or hobbits will go down and light little candles of their own.

elven maiden Earwen 04-16-2003 02:15 PM

movie
Gollum to Sam and Frodo

Airehiriel 04-17-2003 10:02 AM

Excellent, Earwen. You're turn!

elven maiden Earwen 04-17-2003 12:38 PM

ok

a book quote

Carlas 04-17-2003 02:24 PM

I think that was in the book when Aragorn,Legolas, and Gimli were chasing the band of Uruks that had the two young hobbits.

EDIT: Dayvampyre! I used to have that avatar! Its great isn't it?

DayVampyre 04-17-2003 02:38 PM

Carlas: You can have the turn, since you got more specific than I did.

And I am quite fond of the little piccy, didn't know you used to have it.

elven maiden Earwen 04-17-2003 04:46 PM

you are both correct.

DayVampyre 04-17-2003 05:21 PM

Yay! Carlas can have it though.

It pays to be specific [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Carlas 04-17-2003 06:47 PM

Thanks! OK, here it is!

DayVampyre 04-17-2003 06:56 PM

Didn't Mr. Ent-Man have a similar to that in the movie?

I'm going to have to go with my gut though and say "book quote"

Carlas 04-17-2003 06:59 PM

OK, Ill give it to you! But just to clarify, it was Treebeard talking to Merry and Pippin in Fangorn Forest!

You're go DayVampyre! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

DayVampyre 04-18-2003 08:18 AM

I knew that [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

ok......hmmmm....

How long has it been since Saruman bought you? What was the promised price, Grima? When all the men are dead you would take a share of the treasure?

**starts Jeparody theme**

elven maiden Earwen 04-18-2003 08:38 AM

Movie
Eomer to Grima

DayVampyre 04-18-2003 11:02 AM

Yep.

Miss Earwen, it be your turn.

so fair, but so cold like a morning of pale spring still clinging to winters chill

Airehiriel 04-19-2003 10:58 AM

Wormtongue speaking to Eowyn in the movie?

elven maiden Earwen 04-19-2003 11:20 AM

'Tis correct

Airehiriel 04-21-2003 08:38 AM

Cool, I will add my quote when I get home this evening.

Airehiriel 04-21-2003 12:49 PM

Quote:

But who knows what she spoke to the darkness, alone, in the bitter watches of the night, when all her life seemed shrinking, and the walls of her bower closing in about her, a hutch to trammel some wild thing in.

kittiewhirl1677 04-21-2003 06:07 PM

Grima?
From the book?

[ April 21, 2003: Message edited by: kittiewhirl1677 ]

Horse-Maiden of the Shire 04-21-2003 07:34 PM

Umm...was that the TT movie?

Carlas 04-21-2003 09:09 PM

There was a quote similar to that in the movie but I think its a book quote.

Airehiriel 04-22-2003 06:46 AM

Carlas and kittie are correct as to where it is at, but it was not Grima who said it.

Do YOU know who said it?

Carlas 04-23-2003 02:15 PM

Hmmm, I have no idea, but maybe Gandalf or Saruman? OK, so its an idea, give me a break... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Tinuviel87 04-23-2003 03:16 PM

Aragorn said it in RotK I believe

Carlas 04-23-2003 03:30 PM

Welcome to the Downs Tinuviel87!!!
