umm, there is no gap in the bridge, there is a gap in the endless stair in which case Legolas jumps first, then Gandalf, then Boromir grabs Merry and Pippin and Jumps across. part of the stair collapses and Aragorn tosses Sam across, the Gimli jumps, Legolas grabs him by the beard, another section of stair falls, and Aragorn and Frodo do their balancing trick and they all go on to the bridge of Khazad-dum.

but thats if you want to get technical, Sam was the first.

brownjenkins · 01-27-2004, 03:10 PM

much more technical than i intended

, but you are correct... sam!

mallondwen · 01-27-2004, 03:21 PM

I tend to do that alot, oh well it works, next question,

How many staffs does Gandalf go through in the movies, and how does he loose the previous ones?

Yes, this question's a bit tricksy, precious.

One lost at Orthanc. Was another lost falling with the balrog in Moria? Hmm. Does he have three different staffs in the movies? Well, it's a reason to watch TTT again.

You are correct Tuor, your turn.

Tuor of Gondolin · 01-27-2004, 03:54 PM

I think this counts as a trivia question. A while ago there was a discussion of seeing car headlights in FOTR when frodo and the fat hobbit are leavig the shire. I've watched it and in the scene I think I do see a possible light and smoke plume, but not where it's said to be by PJ in his commentary. Where is the "possible" carlight evident?

mallondwen · 01-27-2004, 03:59 PM

The place that it is supposed to be is when Frodo and Sam are about to enter the knee high corn field, by the scarecrow when Sam comments, "If I take one more step, it'll be the farthest away from home I've ever been" or at least that is where I believe it to have been. But Peter had them paint out the car and smoke and all that for the DVD so you would not be able to see it in your copy of the movie, trust me, I already tried to find it, not there.

Tuor of Gondolin · 01-27-2004, 04:05 PM

Correct. Your turn. But when I look at the dvd, as it pans away, on the far right side, I think I see a twinkling light on the road. Unfortunately, the zoom control only enlarges the center area of the screen, not the far right, but I'm 79% sure I see "something."

mallondwen · 01-27-2004, 04:10 PM

On my dvd player I can zoom in and then pan with the arrows, try that.

next question:

In Bree, when they are sitting in the inn, Sam says: "Than man's [Aragorn] done nothing but stare at you since we arrived," and Frodo stops Barliman and says, "excuse me, that man in the corner, who is he?" Barliman answers with, "He's one of them Rangers, dangerous folk they are, wander in the wilds, what his right name is, I've never heard, but 'round here, he's known as Strider."

what is he holding in his hands?

brownjenkins · 01-27-2004, 04:22 PM

drinks in one, and a plate with food in the other... a chicken if i remember right

almost, drink, yes, ale. but the chicken is not right, keep guessing

brownjenkins · 01-27-2004, 04:55 PM

cornish hen

thranduil · 01-27-2004, 05:03 PM

perhaps the drink and pipe?

**Nurvingiel** · 01-27-2004, 06:09 PM

I think just a pipe.

mallondwen · 01-27-2004, 08:35 PM

sorry, but none of those are right either. I will give it a little longer and if no one gets it right then I will tell you and the next question will go to BJ since he got most of it right and first.

**Nurvingiel** · 01-27-2004, 08:36 PM

His sword (sheathed) was my second guess.

And if it's more than one thing, I say his sword and a pipe.

mallondwen · 01-27-2004, 08:39 PM

Sorry, nope
