Oops! Forgot the 'r', I did know that, just a typo [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] . Anyway, here's mine (not a very hard one):

Technically, it was the words of Isildur. "It is, precious to me. Though I buy it with a great pain." [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (Another one of my favourite scenes.)
Though Gandalf read them.
What will be the verdict...? *Jeopardy theme plays in background as Arwen ponders the wonder of technicality*

Hmmm, this is a tough call for me. Although Gandalf said it he was saying the words of Isildur. I was prepared to say Isildur, but I think I'll have to go with Gandalf, since he did actually say it. Great try though, Arwen Eruantale. Go ahead, Faye Took.

1420!

I do know if it will matter wether or not I elaborate, and I truly dont care if it does, just wanted to so here goes....

It was Galadriel to frodo about him seeing the scenes of the destruction of the shire which would occur if he failed and the scenes "also in her mind".

On reflection, I'm not sure that there's any need for this thread, given that we already have a Movie Quotes thread. So this one's closed.

Of course, it should be "film" quotes anyway ... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Thumbs up

Re-opened following an impassioned plea from The Only Real Estel. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

To recap, quotes must be from the FotR film only. And please try to make them challenging (although that doesn't mean posting one or two word quotes or exclamations which could have a number of answers).

The topic is open to anyone to post the next quote ...

Thanks to both The Unquenchable Only Real Estel (for his 'impassioned plea'), and to you, Saucepan Man, for being cool enough to care. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Thag you very buch, Estel and Saucepan Man! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I think that's from the extended clip in the inn, when Gaffer Gamgee says Frodo is cracking. Then Frodo says, "And proud of it!" (which he should be [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img])
