I think New Line and PJ are making a HUGE mistake. If I am reading this right, Arwen is going to have a large role in this movie, and is going to be almost the total antithesis of her character as Tolkien wrote it. I have a feeling that Arwen is going to be at Helm's Deep, and then be at Aragorn's side for the rest of the movie, even going to the final battle outside of the Gates of Mordor. Xenarwen, the Warrior Princess, will be born.

Response to Liv Tyler As Arwen
Does this mean Aerosmith is going to be doing the end credits track? Probably a power ballad entitled "There and Back Again". Imagine the video... Steven Tyler doing Gollum... HEY! THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA! (hee hee hee!)

Oh, and a classic are all those embarrassing things people say when totally heated in debate of "Why Eowyn is better..." etc - here's a great (and shallow may i add, almost feel humiliated for them, ALMOST ) example: http://www.geocities.com/chibi_auddy_chan/extra.html 

.: Bits and Pieces :.

As Aragorn grieves for Boromir, Legolas and Gimli approach....

Legolas: Ai! I fear you are grieviously wounded. We came as quickly as we could, but there were orcs in the woods.

Aragorn: Alas, I was not here to aid him. The hobbits have been taken, he said. He did not say whether Frodo or Sam were with him. This is an evil day.

Gimli: We must pursue them!

Legolas: But what if Frodo is not with them? We cannot abandon the Ringbearer....

Aragorn: I must think. All my choices this day have gone ill. First let us attend to our dead companion, and then we can check for signs....

Boromir (groans): I'm not dead yet.

Aragorn: First let us attend to our mortally wounded companion, and then....

Boromir (raises hand): I think I'm getting better....

Aragorn (knocks him on the head with flat of his sword): Let us now attend to our companion, and then we can check for signs....

.:Fellowship having a night in:.


MERRY: Shall we get a video out?

ALL: Yeah, good idea.

*pause*

PIPPIN: Hey, how about - no, that's not 'til August 6th... *to camera* When it'll be available in all good video stores!

FRODO: Well, what are we going for - comedy, thriller, Harry Potter?

SAM: I don't want to see no more magic...

*pause*

ARAGORN: Psycho?

*silence*

BOROMIR: Bond film?

*silence*

ARWEN: Armageddon?

*they all look at her*

FRODO: Don't you mean Deep Impact?

ARWEN: Armageddon.

FRODO: (dangerously) Deep. Impact.

ARWEN: Fine(!) I'm leaving. And by the way, *Estel* - that Psycho update was utter rubbish!

ARAGORN: But, but... weren't you frightened?

ARWEN: Not nearly frightened enough!

*she leaves*

GANDALF: Well, how about something more intellectually challenging?

MERRY: (sarcastically) What, like X-Men?

GANDALF: Do not take me for some conjuror of cheap tricks!!

MERRY: I'm not!

*pause*

GANDALF: Oh. Ok then. And I was refering to Richard III!

GIMLI: I've always preferred Macbeth, myself.

LEGOLAS: I though Dwarves didn't like Macbeth!

GIMLI: There is one dwarf yet in Moria who likes Macbeth!

*silence*

PIPPIN: How about.... A Beautiful Mind?

GANDALF: Fool of a Took!!

ARAGORN: Do not *speak* of such things!

*pause*

SAM: Hey, how about The Goonies?

FRODO: Only if you stop getting out that damn inhaler!

*others still in discussion*

LEGOLAS: Why not... Wilde?

PIPPIN: Oh no. We don't want this turning into slash fanfiction.

*everyone agrees, various people throw virtual bricks at the webmistress*

SAM: (to Frodo) Mr Frodo? What's 'slash'?

FRODO: *pause* Erm.... why don't you go and ask Gandalf.

SAM: (to Gandalf) Um... Mr Gandalf sir? What's 'slash'?

GANDALF: Do not take me for some conjuror of cheap tricks!!

SAM: I'm not!

GANDALF: *pause* Oh. Well in that case.... slash, eh? Erm... oh, look - the Fratelli brothers!

SAM: (panicked) Where? *looks around, ducks behind sofa*

*Meanwhile*

BOROMIR: It is a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing... such a little thing...

ARAGORN: Boromir! Have you got a suggestion, or are we going to have to watch Deep Impact again?

BOROMIR: How about a football film?

SAM: *popping up from behind the sofa* Rudy!

BOROMIR: No, I said *football*.

SAM: That *is* football!

BOROMIR: Yeah, yeah, whatever(!)

*pause*

ELROND: What about The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert?

HOBBITS: Who invited him??

ARAGORN: Erm.

*rolling of eyes, some mutterings of 'sucking up to future Father-in-Law'*

FRODO: Hey, I notice you two hobbits have been rather... quiet? *stifled laugh*

*Merry and Pippin look at each other*

MERRY: Well..

PIPPIN: I don't care what film we watch, as long as we get pizza with it! And popcorn, like we had last week. And those chocolates the week before...

MERRY: *Yes* Pippin!

*pause*

GIMLI: How about a nice adventure film? Maybe a Spielberg? He's always been a favourite of mine.

BOROMIR: It's not a mine, it's a tomb.

*three people throw arrows at him, he staggers out with gasps of "I'll.... go... get the.... pizza..."*

GIMLI: So, how about it then? A nice Spielberg adventure film?

SAM: The Goonies?

ALL: *No* Sam!

FRODO: And not Indiana Jones... *no more* Harrison Ford!

SARUMAN: Not even in Star Wars? I thought he was very good in Star Wars! Though I do prefer the modern ones better...

FRODO: NO! And would you please leave?!

*Saruman leaves*

FRODO: (incredulous) Are there any more non-Fellowship members, hiding behind chairs perhaps??!

*Bilbo, eight Orcs, two Nazgul, Rose Cotton, Tom Bombadil, Dale Winton and Barliman Butterbur all get out from various hiding places and start to leave*

TOM BOMBADIL: *muttering to himself* Peter didn't want me, you don't want me... nobody wants me....

SAM: (to Frodo) Can't Rosie stay?

FRODO: Sam, she is the bane of all slash fanfiction writers! She isn't supposed to be here until... Christmas 2003, you're too shy to talk to her, *and*, according to the Appendix, you have plenty of time to... *Dr Evil-eque* "get acquainted?" *pause*

SAM: So is that a 'no' then?

*The non-Fellowship have all left now*

*pause*

FRODO: So, do we know what we're going to watch yet?

*drunk from outside the Prancing Pony wanders past the window coughing loudly what sounds very much like "The Frighteners"*

MERRY: I'll check tonight's TV listings.

PIPPIN: *pause* I think I'll just have another ale...

SAM: HEY! That's my..! Oh, *fine* then, 'It comes in pints? I'm getting one!'

*Sam and Pippin glare at each other*

*silence*

ARAGORN: Well, isn't this fun? All men together.

ELROND: Men? Men are *weak*.

*awkward silence*

*drunk from outside the Prancing Pony wanders past again, now coughing what could be "Heavenly Creatures"*

FRODO: (carefully) You know... it looks quite..... cold out. Very, in fact.

*general murmurs of agreement*

FRODO: *pause* And it looks like it might ... rain. Quite heavily. *pause* So, very cold, and heavy raining.

*everyone now looking at him*

FRODO: Know what that means?

*pause*

FRODO: The Ice Storm. The *Ice* *Storm*!! Geddit?! Gedddit?!

*rolling of eyes, Sam looks confused*

*pause*

*more pausing*

PIPPIN: (quietly) You think we should -

FRODO: Give him a minute, he'll get it.

*pause*

*yet more pausing*

SAM: Oh. OH! Ahah! That's a good one, Mr Frodo!

*everyone looks relieved*

SAM: 'Cause you said it was cold, so that's ice, and heavy rain, and, that, haha, that's storm!!

FRODO: (smiling) *Ok*, Sam.

SAM: And, hahahahahh! And *you*, *you* were in that film, The Ice Storm!! Ahhahahahhahhah! Oh that's a good one Mr. Frodo...

*deadly silence*

SAM: *wipes tears from eyes* What? What is it? All I said was, that was *you* in that film... oh dear.

*loud explosion*

*from somewhere in the darkness*

PIPPIN: That's nice, ash on my tomatoes!
