Well, my friend (who saw the profile) is in multiple classes with me. After I told her that Legolas dies, she decided that she didn't want to see the movie and told other Leggy-boppers not to bother going (they only see it for him anyways...), but here's the funny part:
I was sitting in my class reading the Wallstreet Journal's Classroom Edition when I hear vaguely:
"So... what do you think of the ending of the Lord of the Rings?"
"Uh... which part?"
"The part where Legolas dies!"
"What are you talking about? Legolas doesn't die! Who told you that?"
*all of the Leggy-boppers plus the one who set them straight then turn on me*
"FEA! (real name replaced [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) I can't believe you told us he dies!!! What were you thinking??????"
Me: *laughing uncontrollably* "But it was sooooo easy!!!"
Needless to say, I was shunned for the next two hours... that is until lunch, when they all decided that I could be forgiven. Haha. It was too easy... and so fun. All the Tolkienites in my school knew what I had done, but I forgot to tell "Mary" to keep them in the dark.
It's only fair that if they refuse to read the best books of the Millenium, that they should be continually misled on the ending of them. Giving it away is cheating!
