How about having stupid hyena things as wargs!

No, but seriously. Good topic Hookbill. How about Hulk Hogan as Gandalf. Perhaps Joe Pasquali as the voice of Sauron?

How about Rage Against The Machine's 'Take the power back' when Frodo throws the Ring into the Crack of Doom.

There are heaps more, but they're either too surreal or rude! Haha!

Thumbs up

The Uruk-hai could sing "We Will Rock You" while banging their spears and such on the ground at Helm's Deep.

At Bilbo's party, when he puts on the Ring, there should be a loud popping noise, like a bubble. (The same with Sauron when he "explodes.")

For those of you who are familiar with albinoblacksheep.com, "The Llama Song" in the Shire.

Robin Williams as Gandalf, for no reason at all.

The Python who sings "The Lumberjack Song" as Aragorn
singing the song as the Three Hunters plus Arwen
(his best girlie by his side) enter Fangorn.
The chorus is, of course, Treebeard, Quickbeam, et al.

1420!

How about Pippin sings a little solo from the Sound of Music. When he hears drums in the deep, he bursts out with: 'The hills are alive with the sound of music!'

Here'd be a real twist. Let's cast Roger Rabbit as the Witch-king!

And for the brilliant sound effect: a whoopie cushion everytime someone sits down.

With a League of Gentlemen twist:

Tubbs and Edward as Galadriel and Celeborn. Would eliminate the need for any Elven guards on Lothlorien, as everyone would be too scared to go near. "This is a local wood, for local people".

Papa Lazarou as Aragorn. As Arwen places her hand in his his true nature is revealed and he growls "oooh, you're my wife now", and then locks her up with his collection of other wives.

Hilary Briss as Gandalf, the grand meat butcher overlord, insidiously infecting the peoples of Middle Earth with the insatiable desire for 'special stuff'.

If you don't know to what I am referring then why not? But here is a link to more: http://www.leagueofgentlemen.co.uk/

I would like to have heard the music from the Benny Hill show as the Uruk-Hai are being pursued by Aragorn and company.

It would have been nice to have heard a bit of reggae coming from the outer walls of Isengard as Merry and Pippin come across the Long Bottom leaf and smoke is seem rising from the store room!

When the the orcs are cutting down the trees at Isengard etc it would have been good to have heard a chain-saw a la the quest for the holy grail.
