Speaking of horses, did you all mention that Arwen's horse is called Aselof (sp?) - Glorfindel's horse.
She mutters a few words in elvish (quenya I presume?) during the chase which I assume translates as either 'faster Aselof' or 'go Aselof'.

So that's how she's a warrior Princess, she killed Glorfindel and nabbed his horse. Poor Glorfindel, that's twice he's been killed. And being twatted by Arwen ain't nearly as heroic as killing a balrog...

Oops, just checked, the horse's name is Asfaloth.

Arathorn · 01-13-2002, 11:05 PM

I think it's Asfaloth, although in the book it was ridden by Glorfindel.

If you listen to Arwen in the movie, she tells the horse "Noro lim, noro lim, Asfaloth!" as in the book by Glorfindel.

Gerbil · 01-13-2002, 11:29 PM

Ah, '_NORO_ lim, Asfaloth'.

My mistake. The translation should read:

'Get your skates on Asfaloth, we're up the creek without a paddle'.

jerseydevil · 01-15-2002, 02:44 PM

I want Sauron's costume with the Ring and the Black Rider's costume. Gandalf's stuff would be cool too.

Vardasoroniel · 01-15-2002, 03:47 PM

one of the elven cloaks and the leaf clasp from lothlorien . . .

Liviaine · 01-15-2002, 09:40 PM

If it had to be a prop, then I'd want Legolas's bow and arrows.

Laurelyn · 01-20-2002, 11:23 AM

I'd want an elven-cloak, a leaf clasp thingie, and the one ring.

Luthien Tinuviel · 01-20-2002, 01:16 PM

I just want Elijah... Would i be able to find him on ebay?...

Anyways, i would want Galadriels dress, or sting, or the one ring, or narsil, or the mithril coat, or the wizards staffs, or the palantir, and i could go on and on and on...

Gerbil, you are FAR too clever for your own good. I'm watching you.

jerseydevil · 01-20-2002, 08:56 PM

Actually on second thought, I think I want Bag End.

Gerbil · 01-20-2002, 10:19 PM

Glad to see people are thinking big.
Mithril coat anyone? Worth = Approximately the Shire and all it's contents.

I'm poor, I'd do with a couple of Frodo's short and curlies. Yes, his feet-hair. I'd braid them into a ring.

I doubt I'm too clever for my own good, but I'm definately too weird for EVERYONE's good

*looks over at Gerbil* um, oooooook...

Gerbil · 01-21-2002, 10:11 PM

Was that 'oooook' as in 'long drawn out OK' or 'Terry Pratchett ooook'?

well, probly since i have never heard of "terry Prachett" I would just have to say that that ooooook was just a long drawn out ok.

Blimey.
He's an English (oh, now I know why you haven't heard of him

) author who's written pretty much the most succesful set of fantasy books of recent history. They are invariably funny and clever (varying from book to book in amounts of each), the later ones are incredibly well written.

Oh and you have a LOT of catching up to do, I think he's well past 20 books now!

To clear up my quote - through much of the story the wizards' library is run by a librarian (shocking eh?) who has been turned into an orangutan by a magic accident. Basically all he ever says is 'ooooook'

He's a cute character - that monkey.
Uh-oh, I shouldn't have called him that....

AARGGGH!

(another Pratchett in-joke, sorry)

Lightice · 01-22-2002, 08:40 AM

Eeek! Eek! Ook!

And what's most interesting, he usually gets his point through with one syllable.
And as librarian, he knows the mysterious L-Space well...

JenniferTook · 01-22-2002, 11:40 PM

Hmmm....Orlando Bloom? J/K...hehe...

I guess I would like one of the rings, even though that is so unorginal. Gandalf's staff would be wicked! Maybe a palantir. Aragorn's sword. Frodo's sword. Billy Boyd. Oh wait, stop! Ummm....Bilbo's door knob. That cute little vest Frodo wore a lot. Ok, that is enough. I shouldn't be greedy.

Hold on...maybe....Ian McKellen?

Jennifer

Sakata · 01-24-2002, 04:51 PM

I want Aragorn! he is soo much hotter than Legolas it is not even funny! Aragorn and Arwens horse, that would be great... now you all know the real reason I dont like arwen, she is playing my role

Anthy Rose · 01-24-2002, 11:57 PM

I'd have to go for the necklace Arwen gives to Aragon. I Know they make a replica of it, but haven't found it yet...

daring gaffer · 01-25-2002, 02:51 PM

i'd say legolas but that wouldn't be a prop now would it
i haven't read all the posts in this thread but i fear that it wouldn't be too original either
let's see
i'll take the furry feet please (me dad's suddenly gone all scrooge-like where the central heating is concerned)

He walked alone and sorrowing. He peered between the hemlock-leaves And saw in wonder flowers of gold Upon her mantle and her sleeves, And her hair like shadow following. He sought her ever, wandering far Where leaves or years were thickly strewn, By light of moon and ray of star In frosty heavens shivering. Her mantle glinted in the moon. And on a hill-top high and far She danced, and at her feet was strewn A mist of silver quivering.
