I think it refers to the bath song the hobbits sing at Crickhollow in the FOTR.

[Nurvingiel]

It's in FOTR book, when Merry, Pippin, Sam and Frodo meet up with their friend Fatty Bolger. Pippin sings the bath song and makes a huge mess.

[eowyngirl14]

Okay going to go look that up... Is this it?


Sing Hey! For the bath at close of day
that washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is a noble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain,
and the brook that leaps from to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is beer, if drink we lack
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

[Elfhelm]

Sam: By rights, Mister Frodo, we shouldn't even be here.
*thinking* I hope that appeases the ones who read the book.

Sam: Hey Stinker! Where are you going!?
*thinking* Just go! And don't come back!
Frodo: Why do you call him names like that.
*thinking* After all, you are the one who passed gas in Emyn Muil.

[Nurvingiel]

Yes indeedee eowyngirl14, it's the fountain part in the last verse that got Pippin in trouble! Anyway...

(The scene, in the movie, where Treebeard is holding Merry and Pippin and thinks they're little orcs.)

Pippin (says): Don't talk to it Merry, you'll enrourage it!
Pippin (thinks): Maybe it's a bad idea to talk about it as if it's stupid, on the off-chance it understands me and crushes me like a bug.

In the Council of Elrond when Gimli says "... And my axe." Legolas looks like "oh great!" i thought that was funny and when Merry and Pippin come out and say that they were going too, Elrond looks as if he could kill someone. he always has this look on his face and it drives me nuts! he looks so mean!

[azalea]

This may have been done already, and it's a little obscure, but here goes:

Playing in Frodo's head when Arwen walks toward him after he's gotten his Morgul Wound:

"Oooo, Dreamweaver, I believe you can get me through the ni-iight..."

[Arcala]

These are really funny everyone!! I wish I could come up with things like this!!

[Arathorn]

Galadriel when Frodo recoils from the Mirror: "I know what it is you see, for it is also in my mind..."
*thinking* YUCK!

[Iron McFist]

This has probably been posted.. but..

(*When Sam runs in during the Council of Elrond*)
Elrond: ... when he is invited to a secret council, and you are not.
Sam: *thinking* Jesus, dude. You're in the open, you've got elves, dwarves and men arguing about jewelry, what do you expect?

[Legolaslvr!]

This has probably been posted already but when Aragorn met Eowyn in the TTT he was probably thinkin'.......


OH!!!!! She's Hot!!!!!! Oh yeah I already have a Girlfriend Arwen. But Eowyn is much cuter!!!!!

[Elfhelm]

When we were watching it Saturday night, I wanted to come up with one for this classic responding look.

Boromir: By our blood are your people kept safe.
(cut to Aragorn looking skeptical)
Aragorn thinks *Sure, and we rangers have just been having a tea party up here in the north.*

or Aragorn thinks *That might have actually carried water if PJ hadn't moved the attack on Osgiliath to the next movie!*

[Arcala]

Okay, here goes nothing.

(At the council of Elrond)
Gimli says : And my axe!
Legolas thinks: What's left of it....

[Arathorn]

Gollum/Smeagol while debating with himself: "You're a liar and a Thief! Not listening...Murderer!..."

*thinking* Heysa! What yousa arguing about? Yousa have room for another personality like meesa? Just asking... Frodo Baggins MUST NOT go to Mordor...or he will be in GRAVE DANGER! Ooops wrong body...

[samwise of the shire]

Gollum and Sam at the camp fire in Ithilien:
Gollum: "Give it to us raw and still WRRRIGGGLING"
Sam: *thinking* Dad he's picking on me again

Aragorn tracking the hobbits: *thinking* Time for some Guess work.
Aragorn getting dragged along by the warg: *Thinking* Last time I wear jewelry to war.
Legolas in Fangorn with Aragorn and Gimli: The white wizard draws near *thinking*"Why isn't my evil radar going haywire?"

[eowyngirl14]

That's really REALLY funny Arathorn and Samwise!

[FrodoFriend]

I can't believe this thread is still running!!! But after all we have new brain fodder now.

Okay, my quotes will not be exact because I've only seen the movie once so far and in Hungarian, so I kinda have to make general translations....

Gollum - 'Don't follow the light!'
Frodo staring into pool at dead face - 'Damn, where'd he get that nice shirt? I want one of those!'

[FrodoFriend]

Harad soldier staring at camouflaged Frodo and Sam - 'Orcs've been having styrofoamball fights again...'

Frodo holding sword to Sam's throat - 'Just let me get that fly off your collar...'

Aragorn getting licked by horse - 'Phew! For a moment I thought it really WAS Arwen! Thank Eru!'

[samwise of the shire]

Gollum pulling Frodo out of the Dead Marshes: Do not follow the lights. *thinking* Sam...dang you. Now when we REALLY need it to keep ahold of people your rope is down at the bottom of your pack.
Gollum thwacking fish on rock in forbidden pool: Fish:*thinking* Ow ow ow ow. Sotshire in audience:*thinking* I thought you didn't LIKE fish patties
