Frodo Baggins has just left Hobbiton.
Sting

Not to mention..........

Gandalf's sword was supposed to be glowing like Sting, they're both made of the same stuff.

It was Boromir who was throwing rocks in the water at Moria, and I told him to stop.

In the movie, Bilbo says he intended to see Dale, Lake-Town ,and the lonely mountain. I got nres people, in the book he did!!!!!!!!!!

In the book, Gandalf and I were in on Bilbo's disappearing trick, they were in NO way surprised. In fact, I had a hard time not laughing at the other hobbit's antics after he disappeard.

Seventeen years passed between Bilbo leaving and me leaving, not a few weeks.

*sniff* Poor Glorfindel...... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

I don't like cool and more 20th century... I prefer the original old ways!!!!

That fight between Gandalf and Saruman was kind of cheesy.

From what I hear, TTT is going to be more heinous that FOTR. For example......

Saruman is impaled and dies

Rumours say that Arwen AND Eowyn will be at Helm's Deep

Rumours also say that Haldir gets killed at Helm's deep. (Haldir was nowhere near helm's deep in the book.)

And in the gift giving scene in the extended FOTR...

Merry and Pippin get swords, in the book they get belts. Now I know, swords are more cool, but in the book they oulled those swords out of the Bawwor-Wight's mound. Those swords, especially Merry's were made specifically to fight against the Witch-King, so Merry's sword fulfulled its purpose.

In the movie, Sam gets a stupid coil of rope. Where's his box with the Mallorn seed???!!!!!!! Oooooooooo Theres no scouring of the Shire. It would have been nice to see the only Mallorm west of the mountains....

(crawls away to hide with Tinny)
