Discovered
lotr_anon today. I definitely belong. Here are my answers to the survey:
1. How many times did you see the movie in the theatre? Um, I'm kind of hazy on this, but I think it's about seventeen. It gets to the point where you're afraid to admit it to other people.
2. How many times have you watched the video/DVD? Two or three. I am counting down the days to the release of the extended DVD.
2. Do you own the movie soundtrack? Yes, the one with Frodo on the cover.
3. Who is/are your favorite characters, and why? I am definitely a hobbit fan. Frodo and Sam. I am not into squeeing over Legolas in the least. No offense to Legolas--he does a beautiful job with that bow and arrow, among other things--but I'd much rather putter in the garden with Sam.
4. Do you have a favorite scene? In the book: The Choices of Master Samwise. (William Nigh did a terrific job with this scene in the BBC radio production) line of dialogue? In the movie: "I made a promise, Mr. Frodo, a promise! 'Don't you leave him, Samwise Gamgee!' And I don't mean to. I don't mean to." Chokes me up every time.
5. Had you read the books before seeing the movie? If not, did you rush out to read them afterwards? Read the books, um, maybe about twenty years ago? Have regularly re-read them, and worn out my BBC radio production. But then, I'm a fantasy novelist, and we owe everything to Tolkien.
6. Have you been corrupted by the VSD, whereby you end up laughing at the screen at odd moments? Yes. In particular, I have never looked at Merry's carrot quite the same way.
Cheers,
Peg
