Hobbit-Love
Finally saw Lord of the Rings this weekend with Kevin. I think it would have been more meaningful if I hadn?t had been a little buzzed. Two glasses of wine and all of a sudden the dialogue was laugh-out-loud cheesy. It was definitely engaging, though. At one point I was standing on my knees in the chair, remote in one hand, glass of pinot in the other, shouting at Sam. ?Stab it, Sam! Right up from the bottom! Get your knife in there and just jab it up!!? (Bonus points to the person who can tell me what scene was playing while I yelled this). I was out of hand. But in a good way.

Kevin commented on this, too, but I feel that it?s worth repeating. What is up with the hobbit-love? No wonder there are a million and one fanfics out there dealing with hobbit-on-hobbit action. The numerous meaningful looks filled with longing and desire all happened between the four hobbits. Peter Jackson is there something you want to tell us?

Lotr!! yay!!
It was the scene when Sam was fighting Shelob the spider, right? It's gotta be that scene!!

Heh, I know what you mean with Hobbit-love. I had a wallpaper on my computer once and it really looked like Sam and Frodo were about to make out.

Maybe you should ask if Tolkien was trying to tell us something, because the book was full of it too. In fact, the whole relationship sounds like a sado-masochistic, dominatrix-style menage a deux, with Sam calling Frodo "master " all the time:

S: "Oh, I'll never leave you, master Frodo!"
F: "Oh, you're so good to me, sweet, sweet Sam. Now lick my boots! Get down and lick 'em or I'll whip you!"
S: "Oh yes, master Frodo, I'll lick them *and* you can whip me, master, I love everything you do!"

Loved the book though. And the movie. God, that Aragorn... I'll lick him anytime.

Sorry if I'm wicked, but I've got this huge exam tomorrow that I've started studying for way too late (as in, yesterday) and now I'm pissed off at myself because it's actually one of the few subjects that I like and I'm totally gonna screw it up. Blegh.
