What were they REALLY thinking?

FrodoFriend · 02-07-2002, 12:32 AM

You know, sometimes when people say something in a movie, their expressions reveal what they're REALLY thinking. I noticed some of these incongruences in LotR. Here're my interpretations:

Elrond: You shall be the Fellowship of the RING! *looks extremely pleased with himself*
Thinking: It's catchy, and I thought of it all by myself!

Boromir: My father looks to me to make things right, and I, I would do it . . . *goes on about Gondor*
Aragorn: *looks politely bored* Will this guy ever shut up?

Saruman: Do you know how Orcs were created?
Lurtz: Growl . . .
Thinking: Ee, why am I wearing a thong?!

Heaps of Orcs attack Aragorn.
Aragorn: Fools. Pitiful fools. *killed 5 dozen with one sweep of sword*

Gandalf looking down at Ring on floor of Bag End.
Thinking: You are in BIG trouble, young man!

Isildur floating in river, eyes wide open.
Thinking: Cheap plastic aquarium plants! No!

Obsolete White Bearded Man sitting in Council of Elrond.
Thinking: Who am I?

Hmmm, I had some more, but I forgot. Anyone else have any insight?

Feraway Hawkbriar · 02-07-2002, 12:42 AM

Legolas-throughout the whole movie-
I'm too sexy, I'm too sexy, I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my bow too sexy yeeeeaah...(ect)

c'mon you know he was!

aldesign · 02-07-2002, 04:23 PM

why do girls tend to like girly-boys,

look at him, with his FairFace/Skin, and long blond hair
GIRLY BOY!

(homer style)
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmgugugugguuuuuuuuuuu Liv Tyler!!

KGamgee · 02-07-2002, 06:11 PM

I didn't have a problem with the "girly boy" but Sean Astin is a heck of a lot hotter...but he doesn't act like it as Sam....he's just so perfect......

Pailan · 02-07-2002, 07:18 PM

In Moria when, the entire fellowship sees the balrog for the first time, simultaneously
thinks, "Ah Ha, it does have WINGS!"

afro-elf · 02-07-2002, 08:17 PM

Arwen
" A ranger caught off his guard?"

Aragorn
" shouldn't you be home knitting me a sweater, doing the laundry and cleaning up the house, instead of being zenarwen, who can out ride nazgul, sneak up on the GOD of rangers, and has more magic than gandalf. no wonder steward townsend dropped out of this role"

samwise of the shire · 02-07-2002, 08:23 PM

Pippin:Right.When do we begin?
Merry:*Thinking*I should slap you boy.

Frodo:Go on Sam ask Rosie for a dance!
Sam:No I think I'm going to get another ale.*Thinking*Uggg I'm gonna BARF.

Sam sinking into the river and looking up at the top. Thinking:Come on. I need to BREATHE.Get your hand down here. NOW!

Aragorn strapping Boromirs braclets on his wrists. Thinking:Hmm these look rather nice.

Renille · 02-07-2002, 10:48 PM

Gandalf drops down into the mines....
"Yes! Finally, I'm finished working with people half my age for awhile!"

Aragorn rolling his eyes at Boromir at the council-
"Oh come ON...I still have to say a long, mushy goodbye to Arwen! Hurry up already!"

Boromir looking at the ring on Carahdras-
"How did Sauron get this tiny thing on his finger?"

Frodo: But it can't stay in the Shire!
Gandalf: No! No, it cannot.

Thinking: Wait . . . isn't that an oxymoron?

Frodo: *standing by boats at Amon Hen, crying*
Thinking: I forgot to pack a lunch . . .

Thinking: Great, first a bunch of snotty wizard kids stick a wand up my nose, and now this! I demand a pay raise!

Elrond flashing back to when he tried to get Isildur to destroy the Ring.

Evenstar · 02-08-2002, 12:49 AM

*thinking* grumble, grumble, grumble!! I wonder what Superman would do now!!

Arwen: "What's this...a ranger caught off his guard."
Aragorn *thinking*: Why don't you take this friggin ring to mount doom with 4 hobbits and see if you can watch everything at once!!
