doyleCan't remember who I stole this one from...
1) You, Legolas, alone in one room. What do you do?
I want to keep this journal PG, please!
2) You, Arwen, alone in one room. What do you do?
Glare at her. A lot. Then sidle up to her and say "honey? He's gay. He likes the elf boys."
3) We sadly lost 3 when he fell into....ummm...ok, we just lost him.
Ooookay.
4) What gift would you ask of the Elves?
A pot o' gold... oh, that's leprechauns. Maybe a bow like Legolas's (no smutty jokes, please...)
5) What race would you most like to be?
An elf.
6) Honestly...would you keep it secret, and safe?
Hell no! The Ringwraiths would only have to shriek at me and I'd hand it over.
7) If you would keep it secret and safe, would you be the Ring-bearer, or would you swear to protect the Ring-bearer?
Swear to protect the Ringbearer.
8) Ok, you are the Ring-bearer, who makes up the Fellowship with you (of your friends) and if they're enough like a character, say who they'd be:
Mary, Laurence, Hazel, Sarah, Glenn, David, Kevin and cerrd_gwen.
9) Ok, you're not the Ring-bearer (but you are in the Fellowship like above), who of your friends would be the Ring-bearer?
Mary. All of the rest of us would lose it or just use invisibility to play practical jokes.
10) Are you evil? Evil enough to become a tool of Sauron?
Yes! Oh, yes.
11) If you had to be one of the nasty/evil creatures (i.e. the Balrog, the Cave Troll, an orc, Ring Wraith, etc)
Cockney orc is tempting, but I want to be a ring wraith. I'd fall off the horse, though.
12) If you didn't know the Ring was The One Ring, but you knew it made you disappear and such, what would you do with it?
Funny, funny jokes, like whispering "kill them all!" to people.
13) Pippin and Merry - are they really okay guys, or just big nuisances?
Hey! I love my back-up hobbits.
14) Who kicks the most ass: Gandalf, Legolas, Strider, or Gimli?
Tough call. I'll go for Aragorn.
15) Would you rather be an Archer, Wizard, or Ranger?
Archer.
16) Who's your favorite character?
Legolas. He rocks.
18) If, for some odd reason, Aragorn and Legolas were to get in a fight, who do you think would win (and why)?
(Smirks) Oh, a fight? Bit of rough and tumble? Legolas would win, because Aragorn would let him. I could make many smutty jokes about Legolas being on top, but I believe I'll restrain myself.
19) Do you think the race of men is weak?
Yep.
20) Does it make you sad to know the Elves are leaving these shores?
(Sobs) Well, not if it's Arwen. But don't go, Elrond and Legolas!
21) React to this: Frodo lives!
I know.
22) If you've read the book and seen the movie, did you like both, or do you think one was better than the other?
I thought the movie was better.
23) Do you think the movie was an insult to Tolkien's genius?
Not in the least.
24) Any problem with the cast?
Two words: Liv. Tyler.
25) Honestly...do you think Liv Tyler did a good job as Arwen, or are you glad she's in the movie just because she's hot?
I could go on for days. I hate the character of Arwen. She's pointless, banal and I resent every second she's onscreen (and it's not 'cause I'm a slasher. I love Eowyn and think she's a kickass female character)
26) What do you think of the choice to cut Tom Bombadil?
Thank you, God (and Pete)
27) Was the Balrog all you had hoped for?
Sure.
28) Any other changes from the book to the movie that irritate you?
I liked it all, even the changes to Faramir (because I saw FOTR before I read Two Towers, and to be honest I felt the book-Faramir made my beloved Boromir look like an absolute chump for not resisting the ring)
29) How about that special-edition DVD, pretty cool, or no?
(happy sigh) oh yes.
30) Lastly, what was your favorite bit of the movie?
Fellowship - Moria: the goblins just pouring from everywhere... and then the silence as the Balrog approaches.
Two Towers - Smeagol's conversation with himself ("not list'nin'..."), tied with the moment when he lies there sobbing to himself and we hear Gollum quietly sing-songing "Smeaaa-gol..." Creeps me out every time.
