LOTR not-30 Day Challenge Post 4

 Day 16: THE UGLIEST ORC OR URUK

Gothmog

Epitome of the word 'Ugly'. It was just retardedly ugly! I don't know exactly what happened to his face. Actually I do. Peter Jackson just couldn't help but splatting moulds of clay-ish type things to the pre-made sculpture during his production. Disgusting. 'Nuff said.

Day 17: A SCENE THAT MAKES YOU CRINGE (CHEESINESS)

"Gan-dalf?"

The way Frodo said "Gandalf" in a rather stretched and just plain weird way, was just so cheesy I can't help but cringe everytime I see the Return of the King. asodnisgaposuweh gives me the shivers...

Day 18: BEST FIGHT SEQUENCE

Battle at Pelennor Fields

I loved loved loved the bit when Theoden, with a smile on his face says "Make safe the city!" and then turns around when he hears the stump stump stump and the bellowing of the Oliphant/Mumakils as they approached in line. That was beyond epic! Especially when good ol' Legolas comes into the play and kills one by himself. Eomer killing two was pretty epic too and the darling Eowyn killing one as well was heroic. Brilliant battle!

Day 19: WORSE FIGHT SEQUENCE

This isn't it.

Once again, I must say there was no bad fight sequence in the movie at all! I enjoyed every single one of them. But what I thought wasn't up to my standards was the battle at Osgiliath with Faramir, during the Two Towers. It wasn't really a battle, it was more like 'escaping' so I guess it doesn't count.

Day 20: IF YOU WERE FROM MIDDLE EARTH WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE

The Shire

I wouldn't mind living in the Shire and doing what Mr. Frodo is doing up there. I love a good book and the Shire with all its green hills and pastures and its peace and happiness that surrounds it sounds like a very great place to stay. But I'll be a big traveler and I wouldn't mind living in the greener parts of Gondor. Its provinces would be good. Rivendell's not that bad either but somehow there's just something pulling me away from a place that's way too perfect.

LOTR not-30 Day Challenge Post 1

 Day 1: FAVOURITE HOBBIT

Sam

Samwise Gamgee, more known as Sam to his good mates. Must I explain why? After re-watching the trilogy, especially The Return of the King, I just admired Sam's strength, determination and his unending encouragement to the all-ready-to-give-up Frodo. He also fought a huge spider, namely Ms. Shelob, who I know would've killed me in an instant.

Day 2: FAVOURITE LOCATION

The Shire

Definitely the Shire. It was just so beautiful and too wondrous to behold. Though this picture isn't the accurate potrayal of it when it was first introduced at the Fellowship of the Ring, I still favour the Shire's country look with it's green, luscious hills instead of the too holy and sacred of Rivendell, the stony and hard Minas Tirith or the callous and weed-infested Rohan.

 Day 3: LEAST FAVOURITE LOCATION

The Fellowship inside Moria

Firstly, I apologise for not having an accurate picture of the inside of the mines. I couldn't find one :(
Not that I'm a claustrophobic or anything, because I'm not... or at least I think I'm not... but Moria definitely didn't appeal to me. It was dark, dank, too underground and suffocating and with yucky goblins and dead, skeletal dwarves and goblins alike. Throw in a good ol' Balrog, fell beast, in there and you're not in for a treat.

 Day 4: BEST MEAL

Humour wise, definitely when Eowyn gave Aragorn her 'stew'. It was just so hilarious to see Aragorn's facial expression in his attempt to be a gentleman and not to offend a fair lady. Funniest meal in the trilogy!

 Day 5: FAVOURITE WEAPON

Sting

Bestowed and given to Frodo by Bilbo, "Sting" as it was called, was forged by the Elves and glowed whenever there are orcs around. When I first saw it shining in the Battle of Amon-Hen, I absolutely loved it. When Sam used it to fight Shelob in her lair at Cirith Ungol, it worked wonders.
