my favourite character is probably a tie between treebeard and gollum |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tom bombadil kicks ass too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
eh? no, i was saying that i like treebeard and gollum equally the most in the books |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ha ha I know.. :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
I watched the two towers last night (Again) and I'm sure *SPOILER!* dies in the book, not sure though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
goodness!! you are quite the Andy Warhola, aren't you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i liked TOm too.....but my favorite was treebeard, but his character in the movie was incredible, it made me feel like i was really in middle earth. Laqeuro, where did you get your name from? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are the second person to spell it warhola.....whats up with that?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YEs warhola is the shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh no youre one of them NOW |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Laqeuro: I like Gollum too, he's a more complex character than most people realize. I think the movies are doing a good job of showing that inner conflict. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ahhhhhhhhhhhh I love the doggy!! |
||||||||
|
|

Everybody who meets Woofgang winds up adoring him, he's a charmer. |
||||||||

i just made up the name laqeuro like a year ago. nothing really special about it..... |
||||||||
|
|

I've recently read the first two books... but had to take a break... reading book 8 from the WOT series now... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
What's wrong with the name Nick? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I haven't been able to get into Robert Jordan very much... he just seems too damn wordy, like you could cut 200 pages out of each of his books and not lose a shred of plot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually it's nic with no k muahahahaha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If I were in an assholish mood, I'd start calling you Nik! ;-P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
really? Hmmm, I find those books never lag... I've read 7 full, and am in the 8th, and I haven't been bored at all... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My couple of friends of mine who are into that said that you have to let them grow on you. Maybe it's just cause I don't go for that genre of fantasy as much as I do for SF... |
||||||||

READ his biography =0) fascinating!!! glad you stuck with it, the language (like shakespeare, and herbert) can be daunting for some people. CHEERS to you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i have been so into lotr always, thanks to my parents who were FREAKS.. it's a big part of my upbringing. tolkien was a genius, no doubt about it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
LOTR? hmm. never got around to it. but garth nix's series including sabriel, lirael, and the recently released abhorsen is just...well. absolutely fucking incredible. and anyone who's unfamiliar with these books but enjoys a good 'fantasy' here and there...well. look into it. well worth your time. |
||||||||
|

|
|
reminds me of th JACQUIO from ninja gaiden. hehe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if anyone wants to read a series of books as good as LOTR try A Song of Ice and Fire by George R R Martin. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't get into the books. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you mean the LOTR books, try a song of ice and fire, trust me, they are brilliant and not difficult to get into! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
arre they "carrtoony". its sounds silly but thats all i see when i rread LOTR's, little brrightly colourred carrtoon charracterrs. Like in The Hobbit wherre the dwarrfs arre hanging therre rred and grreen and silverr hats up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its more realistic and adult than LOTR and the characters are some of the best i've encountered in a book. |
||||||||

I dl a motion picture association copy of Two Towers right after the movie was released in theaters. I still saw it in the theater and plan to buy it, but I still couldn't help but laugh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have been wondering a little bit about Garth Nix's books. They don't have a "childish" feel, do they? The last sort-of-fantasy books I read were the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman. |
