They're gorgeous! Love me some elves. *g*

[gothrockrulz]

Awww, thank you. Among other things, your LotR icons inspired me to start making icons in the first place, so I'm really flattered you like them. :)

Heee! Took a couple of Legolas. I remember when this movie came out, what a huge, huge impact it made. And I did not see it coming at all. It's sort of amazing, when a fandom pulls the rug out from under you like that. Don't you think?

[gothrockrulz]

Alas, I didn't know anything about LotR when the movies actually came out, so I missed out on all the excitement at that time. But I agree, it is amazing when a fandom explodes without warning.

People are going nuts about The Hunger Games now, what with the midnight premier being next week. I'm amused that all my Facebook friends (mostly people from church who know my brothers and friend me to be nice) are suddenly talking about how awesome it is.

[rhoda_rants]

Heh. Even my brother's been raving about The Hunger Games, and he doesn't even read YA. I did what I always do in those situations: gave him my copy of Battle Royale and said, "Read this, dammit!"

Is he Team Katniss or something? (One of my brothers said he was Team Katniss, while listening to me and another brother argue about whether Gale or Peeta was better.)

LOVE the Haldir icons! He seriously got shafted in the fan-girl attention ^_^ Me? I bawled like a bitch with a skinned knee when he died in TTT.

[gothrockrulz]

Thanks! You're absolutely right--lovely though Legolas is, Haldir deserves more attention! I bawled when he died his non-canon death as well. I will always love PJ for making the LotR movies possible, and for making The Hobbit as he is now; but I will never forgive him for Haldir's death. Never.

[tala_nahimana]

I totally agree! The LOTR movies are still my most favorite movies in the whole wide world, but when Haldir died, I swear I bawled like I'd just lost someone close to me, as ridiculous as that might sound. I can't WAIT to see The Hobbit, but I still get a little pissy when I see just how much attention Haldir DIDN'T get >.< I'll never forgive PJ either LoL

[gothrockrulz]

It doesn't sound ridiculous at all--his death was so heartbreaking. It was meant to make you feel that way.
