August 6th has arrived!!


NOTE: All the ideas on this page ('cept where marked or blatently obvious, like the fact I didn't invent the question mark. See DISCLAIMER) are mine - if I find them on other sites I shall be forced to call you a sneak. Sneaking off and sneaking back like a sneaky sneak from the land of the sneaks.

Here is a random collection of photos, an obsession list and general ramblings about Tolkien's masterpiece
and, of course, Peter Jackson's interpretation.

Filmographies of the Actors
You know you're obsessed when you read this obsession list...

How obsessed are you?
By Lisa

YOU KNOW YOU'RE OBSESSED WHEN:





You do quizzes like that

You write lists like this

You've seen the film more than twice

You can quote the book and film at will (sorry Will!)

You're friends call you obsessed

You don't mind!

You want the One Ring for your birthday (my birthday present....)

You wear a ring and pretend to be invisible (well, I did that anyway)

You start hissing over posessionssssss

You can't go shopping now - can't stop shouting "Mushrooms!" and 'Po-ta-toes' in the middle of Tescos!

You know the names/birthdays/addresses of the cast (if the last one - email me!)

You answer yes to any of these statements!

You want a pony so you can call it Bill

You want 9 kids so you can name them after the Fellowship

You want 13 kids so you can name them after Sam's kids

You're thinking about chopping off your legs so you'll be under 4ft tall

You call enemies slinker/stinker

You watched "Babe" just to hear Hugo 'Elrond' Weaving

You know Elvish

Any at all

Even "Pedo Mellon a minno"

You have "Pedo Mellon a minno" written on your door

You keep adding "if you follow me" to the end of sentences

You can't help saying "They have a cave troll" when you shut a door

You know how many days it is until the next film

You've marked the DVD/Video release on your calendar (2 and 4-Disc!)

At drama, when asked to 'die flamboyantly', you re-enacted Boromir's death scene (I did that!!)

You want to change your name to a LOTR name


(Whill's)
You shoot people on the street with three arrows, then time their death, and compare it in emotion to Boromir's

You go to fortune tellers just to tell them "I know what it is you see, for it is also in my mind"

You start drilling behind the sofa to try and find orcs in the ground

When you want to kiss someone, you shoot them with three arrows to make you less shy about it

You say "Nobody tosses a dwarf!" at inappropriate times

(back to mine)

You watched "North" to see Elijah Wood aged 12

You noticed he looked EXACTLY THE SAME AS HE DOES NOW!!!!!!!!!!

You know the road goes ever on and on...

Pubs now don't let you in - you can't help saying "It comes in pints?!"

You're sure there are Nazgûl chasing you

You call your cousin your Uncle and tell everyone he found a dragon

You say "Po-ta-toes" a lot

People don't even have to ask "What are you thinking about?"

You pretend to smoke a pipe

All people should be hobbits

You know there is an un-sleeping EYE watching you

You have 3 or more posters of LOTR

You have saved pictures on your computer

You have printed out pictures

You have printed out the script

You have re-enacted the film, using the script, with the CD on

Using sock-puppets

You spend hours making LOTR sock puppets

(Whill and I can't agree on who thought of the next two, so I have to put both our names to them)

Every time you see birds on the ground you shout "Fly, you fools!!"

Every time you see birds in the sky you shout "Crebain from Dunland! Hide!" and run for cover

You know what Samwise's real name is

You stayed up until 6am (GMT) watching The 2002 Oscars and threw things at the screen when Ron Howard/Russell Crowe/Jennifer Connelly appeared

You got really annoyed that Orlando Bloom, Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan weren't there.

You start saying "A star shines upon the hour of our meeting" when you meet people

To be really clever, you say it in Elvish - "Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo"

You have written any sort of Fanfic

Although slash is, well, you know, you don't like people writing about Tolkien's characters in *that* way

Sam just wouldn't do that sort of thing!

You have a moral stance against RPS (Real Person Slash)

When you go to other Sam fansites and see pictures of Sean Astin in the film 'Rudy', you shout "Go Rudy!!" - even though you haven't actually seen the film...

You say "Oh thank Gandalf" instead of "Oh thank God"

You have made up a hobbit version of the Macbeth dagger bit with your ex (Ok, I only helped a bit)

"Is this a hobbit I see before me?
The innocent face towards my crotch?
Come, let me fondle thee!
I hold thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art though not, fatal gardener
sensible to feeling as to sight?
Or art though but a hobbit of the mind,
a false creation?
Proceding from the Samwise obsessed brain?"

You've ever said "Oh for hobbit's sake!"

You keep thinking of ways you could meet LOTR characters

You have imaginary conversations with LOTR characters/actors

You have visited Czechoslovakian LOTR websites

You've written out your favourite LOTR poems/songs in your diary, and are determined to learn them all

You have a vecro-letters t-shirt and it always says things like "I've blown the Horn of Gondor", "Obsessed, moria?" (I thought of that!), and "Shire, Baggins!", etc.

You've ever said "Where the hobbits is that?" (Whill)

You don't fancy without big hairy feet/long blond hair and great skill in archery/them being heir to some sort of throne or seat of power/a long beard, prefferably plaited

You have named items in your room after a LOTR actor (or two)

Whenever the phone rings, you pick it up and instantly yell "Is it secret?!?! Is it safe!?!!?" (Whill)

You keep saying 'Frodo' instead of 'Friday' (Whill, but I do it too...)

You consider things such as - do hobbits wear pants or boxers?

Or maybe none.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm.

You wonder who'd be best at kissing... (I reckon Pippin)

You start saying "I reckon" accidently

You watched "The Goonies" just to see Sean Astin,
and counted the number of times he said "One-Eyed Willy".

You have considered things like:
Would hobbits go on skiing holidays?
Would Pippin watch Big Brother?
Would Frodo vote Labour, Conservative, Liberal, Green... maybe Monster Raving Loony Party?
Why would Aragorn be carrying around four knives?
Why is Pippin wearing a scarf?
Why aren't the others?
Why is he Scottish?
(My god that accent is so sexy!)
Has anyone told Elrond he'd look better in sunglasses?
Has anyone told Legolas he'd look better with nothing on? ('cept all the OBsessed fangirls...)
Would any of them play Twister?
(gets distracted by idea of Fellowship playing Twister... mmm.)
Who would win at Scrabble? (Whill)

You can't see/say fool or took without saying
"FOOL OF A TOOK!"

When you say 'Confound it...' (Whill)

You have trouble thinking about other things

But... where's the hobbits in that?

When playing a game where you have to get another person to answer using a certain letter, people ask you LOTR questions, and you do the same, ie:
I had F, so I couldn't say that letter in my answer.
They asked "Who has Sam as a best friend?
Umm... The Ringbearer!
Oh, I could've said Bill the Pony...

You ask Whill: (he had "B") Who does Sean Bean play in The Fellowship of the Ring?"
(Note: I did not say 'play with', so he couldn't have said Pippin)
The Heir to the Regency of Gondor.

Humph.

When out shopping with Whill, you saw the poster of The Scorpion King, and laughed because it said:
Legend, Warrior, King.
And that's like Mission.... quest.... thing.
HEEHEE!!!

You wanna go live in Sheffield/Canterbury/Glasgow/Denmark/LA/wherever Dom's from just to be even slightly near some LOTR people

You've started talking in a Glasgow accent... and you live approx 300 miles away from Scotland

You take free "Pre-order LOTR here!" leaflets just for the pictures

When you get the video/2 disc DVD, you want to go and collect it dressed as Gandalf

You want to watch films that you know will be a waste of 2 hours of you life, just because a LOTR actor is in them

When people claim you "have a new obsession" (like Colin Farrell for instance) you can instantly name 15 reasons why that isn't so, and get very indignant about it

You sing "I fell in love with a beautiful Ranger..."

You find it hard to remember that it's important not to shout out things like "GET OFF THE ROAD!!!" when you're on a public bus.

You dream about people from LOTR, or (lucky!) being in LOTR

You watch the video and rewind it when people COME IN THE ROOM AND ASK YOU STUPID QUESTIONS WHILE LORD ELROND IS SPEAKING!!!

You join in when people speak in the dark tongue of Mordor (Laurie from the Mercury theatre course!)

You have noticed that Gandalf is singing The Road goes ever on and on...

You start saying "Havo dad, (name here)" to people, instead of "sit down"

You recite LOTR songs and verses with Iggy from drama. Or, y'know, just anyone. Ahem.

When you watched it the first time on video, you cried 23 times. Yes, 23.

More soon

OTHERS COMING SOON

THE FILM!!!
Well, when I think of something to write
about the film, apart from
"OH MY GOD, IT'S SHEER GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
and shrieking lots of times, I'll let you know.
If anyone finds a lovely (non slash) picture of Samwise, could they e-mail it to me?

And why do people keep laughing when I say
I like Sam?...

Ok, how many of you have seen The Goonies?
Show of hands.

Ok, how about Harrison Bergeron?

Anyone?

Anyone at all?

THE BOOK!!!
Ok, so I know a few of you are going, what has your strange Sam obsession got to do with the book?

Well.... nothing, I just like the picture.
Ain't it cute?

Things I would seriously call my children:

Samwise, Elanor, Lúthien/Tinúviel, Lothlórien, Galadriel, Arwen...

I need not tell you how ... amazing Tolkien's work is, and if I do, then WHY HAVEN'T YOU READ IT??!!
