The Fellowship of the Ring was an artful masterpiece, and full of great lines. What are some of your favourites? Maybe its something funny, or perhaps its something that made you think. Whatever line it is, share it here.
Hint: Go to www.seatofkings.net/scripts.html for a transcript of the movie.
One of my favourites is right at the beginning of the movie:
Narrator (V.O.): The Ring came to the creature Gollum who took it deep into the tunnels of the Misty Mountains. And there it consumed him.
- I don't know, but Cate's reading of this line always just sounds so beautiful.
Bilbo (V.O): In fact, it has been remarked by some that Hobbits' only real passion is for food. A rather unfair observation, as we have also developed a keen interest in the brewing of ales and the smoking of pipe-weed. (Extended Edition)
- This line always makes me laugh!
Gandalf: [sternly]: A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.
- I always try and use this line whenever I'm late for something!
Bilbo: Good gracious, you have been productive. (EE)
- Can you imagine telling somebody that? Haha!
Sam: I haven't been dropping no eaves, sir. Honest. I was just cutting the grass under the window there, if you follow me.
- Another line that cracks me up every time!
Sam: A shortcut to what?
Pippin: [Spots something on the ground.] Mushrooms!!
- A clever way to get a line in from the book!
Frodo: Who are you?
Aragorn: Are you frightened?
Frodo: Yes.
Aragorn: Not nearly frightened enough. I know what hunts you.
- A perfect start to the adventure.
