legendary pick-up lines of Middle Earth - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Oho, but you're all forgetting

"If you are not Luthien, then you walk in her likeness."

and

"Do not scorn pity that is the gift of a gentle heart."

Actual factual Middle-earth pickup lines!

Not to mention Tinuviel! Tinuviel!

Sam - Well, going by the movies, he doesn't use words to express what he's feeling.

Boromir - All he has to do is stand beside Legolas and when the lady's flock to Legolas, they'll see Boromir and they'll fall for him to.

Arwen - She just cheats on everyone. And knocks Glrofindel out!!!

Eowyn - Has no time for love. She's to busy fawning over an 80 year old King.

I think while Legolas is standing there with his long gorgeous hair, he should do a hair flip and raise his 'bow'....I mean bow. Women love the bow. Maybe men, too.

I don't believe Legolas really needs a pick up line. Seriously, all it takes is shooting down all the damsels distressors then gliding (elves don't walk) to her and kissing her hand. By the time Legolas even raises his voice, she's already passed out in admiration.

Glorfindel would go for the pity approach of Arwen usurping his heroic rescue of Frodo.

Of course, Brego would go for the whole "I'm the Kings horse, fillies. He owes me his live. Neeiiiighhh *shows of by rearing*"

Hmmm... What about the Balrog...?

Movie Gimli: ..well he just has to say any trivial bit of bookish plot in some humorous fashion, and all of a sudden he is a stand up comic with a drunken fanfair. Way to go Movie-Gimli! Hundreds of lounge lizards are jealous! (Does anyone else think of Grima with the term lounge lizard, or am I the only one that can see him in tight reptile prints?)

Book-Gimli:
"You know.. I've been to the gates of Moria, but your eyes reflect the moon FAR brighter." followed by low dwarvian growl.

"I'd sail away with you before that elvish git any day of the week!" again with the low dwarvian growl.

After some pantomimed "striking" his "target" with any of a various assortment of mining instriments he drops the tool and hollars "I've struck gold!" before emitting yet again, another low dwarvian growl.

Yes folks: when it comes to dwarvian pick-up lines its all about that growl.

or

Balrog: Maybe I do have wings... maybe I don't. But there's only one way to find out, sweetheart!
