Ok, so my husband forced me (BY GUNPOINT NO LESS) to sit there all day yesterday and watch The Lord of the Rings marathon that was on TNT (thanks a lot Ted Turner). I swear BK has a sixth sense that lets him know anytime that any of those movies are on. I wouldn’t mind it so much but A. He’s seen them a billion times and B. We actually OWN the movies so he could watch it anytime he wants (preferably when I’m not around.) There is something that really bugs me about the movies though. Why is Frodo the “hero”?? I know he “bared the burden” of carrying the ring, but who had to put up with all of Frodo’s crap? Sam…Samwise Gamgee (ok, I totally Googled that) In my eyes he’s the hero of the movie not stupid Frodo. I’m sure I’m missing some point but I don’t care what you say, Sam’s my hero. And I’m not sure, were Sam and Frodo dating? I’m probably just reading a little to far into some of their loving glances and adoring comments.
The neighbor kids have a problem. They can’t keep their freaking toys on their side of the fence. So, instead of being polite and throwing them back over we’re holding them hostage. Also, I’m noticing that BK has neglected this area in weedeating. I guess it’s one of those out of sight, out of mind things. Just don’t judge me on that…
Can I tell you how much I love the picture below? Other than the clear shot of her butthole it just is the sweetest picture ever. She’s carefree…
I almost watched some of those yesterday and then I remember how frickin long they were and I changed my mind. 🙂
I watched. I was in and out of them. Oh, and we also own them.
That’s funny because at the very end, I was like, “Are Sam and Frodo gay?”
I’ve never watched any of the LOTR movies. I don’t think I’ll watch them anytime soon. I’m not such a fan of the fantasy movies. I haven’t seen the Harry Potter one’s either and also don’t plan on seeing them.
I love that last picture. You should frame that one.
Oh lord. Now I’m going to have to spend the next 9-odd hours of my life watching these. I haven’t seen them in forever.
Not that I’m angry, I’ll enjoy it 😛
My husband SWEARS that Sam and Frodo are in luuuurve! He can’t watch the last movie without gazing deeply into my eyes and declaring something like, “no matter what else, there’s always been you, Sam.” and heaving some dramatic sighs. And then I push him off the rock into the boiling lake of lava.
It’s good to know I’m not the only one who read into the Frodo/Sam love story.
I agree that Sam is the hero of LOTR. Maybe because I relate to Sam. I too am loyal to a fault. Especially to someone that has to bear a burden.
My wife just had our first baby.
I guess that’s not helping the Sam-and-Frodo-aren’t-gay argument.
