LOTR Challenge - Day 30 - How You Got Into LOTR

The last day. Where. Did. The. Time. Go.

Day 30: How You Got Into LOTR

Oh, the LOTR and I go way back! :) No, really, I've been a fan of LOTR as long as I can remember. Ever since I've been little, little girl I've been as much of a fan I could be. I know, it seems kind of crazy.
But I got into LOTR because it's a family favourite. So, you can say I was raised with a LOTR love! :)

Well, my thanks to Lily for hosting this challenge, it was a lot of fun to do. A lot of fun!

Altaithe sona! (an lá tar éis)

Yes, I got that brilliant idea to say "happy Thanksgiving!" in a different language (Irish) from Elizabeth Lindsay at One Light in a Dark World.  

Well, today's the day after Thanksgiving, but any old way...

10 THINGS I AM THANKFUL FOR:

sist ers.

bl og  fri en ds. 

breath.

Jesus Christ.

home.

family.

music.

life.

books.

camera.

The list could go on-and-ON! It's kind of hard to stop. :)

LOTR Challange : Days 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29

How can November almost be over!? Wow. It's just gone so quickly.

 Day 25: Favourite Quote

This is not even half of my favourite quotes! :)

“Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.” ~Galadriel

 "What a pity that Bilbo did not stab that vile creature, when he had a chance!"
"Pity? It was Pity that stayed his hand. Pity, and Mercy: not to strike without need. And he has been well rewarded, Frodo. Be sure that he took so little hurt from the evil, and escaped in the end, because he began his ownership of the Ring so. With Pity." ~Gandalf

And don't mind me if I add a quote from the Hobbit...:D

"Look, I know you doubt me. I know you always have. And you're right. I often think of Bag-end. I miss my books and my armchair and my garden. You see, that's where I belong. That's home. And that's why I came back. You don't have one. A home. It was taken from you. But I will help you take it back if I can." ~ Bilbo

Day 26: Favourite larger-than-life foe
In the LOTR, Oliphants. I don't know why, just because.

Day 27: Isengard or Mordor?
In what case?  I think Mordor might be a tad bit worse, if that's what we're talking about.

Day 28: Ents or eagles?

Can I answer both? Ents are huge walking trees and I love trees. And they're just so amazing.
 But, also, being rescued by eagles and riding on them would be rather exciting/thrilling/epic.

 Day 29: Favourite Side/Unknown Character
I spent awhile trying to decide on this, but I couldn't. :)

LOTR Challange : Days 21, 22, 23 and 24! :)

Day 21: Most Inspiring Moment
 There a lot of inspiring moments in the LOTR, it's rather hard to pick! But I have to say when Theoden is riding past the riders of Rohan with his sword, and than they all shout "Death!" is one of my favourites.

 And then,
of course,
 there's the
"My friends, you bow to no one"
moment at the almost end!












Day 22: Character you pity most

Well, Smeagol. It's not his fault he's bad, really. The Ring took over him and Gollum's like this, this thing that's telling him "do this" or "don't do that", etc.

Day 23: Least Favourite Character

Lots of Orcs and also too many to count, really. 

Day 24: Scariest Moment

I'd have to say...Shelob's lair.
No, spiders don't scare me. But having a HUGE one chasing after me, I think I would be a leetle scared. :)

Also, right before the Ring gets destroyed, and Frodo won't do it!

LOTR Challange : Days 17, 18,19 and 20

Well, I think I have been bending the rules long enough, and answered things from the Hobbit, when this is only a LOTR challenge. :) So I think I'll try to answer only LOTR answers now! :)

Day 17: Elves or Dwarves?

Well, I don't really know how to answer this one! Because...I don't know. •-• So...I'll leave that as my answer! :D (After all, I have an Elf and a Dwarf for sisters.)

Day 18: Coolest Visual Effect

Wow. There's a lot of amazing visual effects in these movies! I think I'll settle on this:

Day 19: Weirdest Screencap

Really, I can't find any! I mean, there are a lot, but I can't find any. ☺

Day 20: Saddest Character Death

Let's just not talk about this, shall we? *holds back tears*

~ S. F.

LOTR Challange - Day 16 - 6. Favourite Female Character

Hmm...hmm...hmm...hm! I suppose Eowyn is my favourite:

Just because she's brave. Which I hope to be one day!

Just one? *sigh* Oh, come on, brain, pick one! Alright, I'll say Sting. How I long to carry it by my side!

 

14. Favourite Outfit

Ooo, so many. I can't chose. I'll just say I love a whole lot of them! :D That's an answer, right?

 15. Favourite Armour  

Hard choosing this one, too! But these are a few:

 Ah! I can't find any good pictures of them. I'll just list them:

Eowyn's armor.

The Mithril shirt.

Aragorn’s armor.

Well, I got caught up! *grins* Hope your day's going well.

Forever in Christ,

LOTR Challange: Days 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11!

Okay, today I'm going to do it short and simple:

Day 7: Favourite Antagonist

I really don't know! Why don't I just say Sauron or Smaug? ;)

Day 8: Gondor or Rohan?

I think I'll  say Rohan! :)

Day 9: Favourite Hobbit

I've said it before, haven't I? Bilbo.

Day 10: One True Pairing

 Sam and Rosie.

Day 11: Favourite Friendship

Don't have one. ;) But here are two: the one between Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli, & Fili's and Kili's in the Hobbit.

(I couldn't find pictures of them all)

Stay tuned for the next part! :)

::WARNING:: very short post

Just a little pop-in to say:  

I know I'm behind in the challenge.

Today's 11-12-13.

And my sisters and I have a new blog!

LOTR Challange: Days 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6!

Here are the answers to days 2-6: (and you must pardon me if these answers have to do a lot with the Hobbit, we got the extended edition last night!:) Did any one else watch it?)

 Day 2: Favourite Battle

 The battle at the end is my favourite. Because, well, it was the battle that ended evil! Good enough answer? hmm?

Day 3: Favourite Character

I must say Bilbo Baggins. Because if I don't, I'll lie. Truth. And who can help not liking him?

It'd take a while to list the rest of them, and, besides, it says "Favourite Character", not "Favourite Characters"!

Day 4: Scene that makes you cry

I cry easily. Very easily. And so, I'll only say one scene that makes me cry because I don't think you want a long list: 

The one when Sam says, "I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you," make tears come to my eyes.

 Day 5: Scene that makes you laugh

"We've had one, yes. But what about second breakfast?" and "It comes in pints? I'm getting one." ~ Pippin.

 And also mostly every scene that has Pippin in it'll be funny. Agreed?

And Merry's face in this picture! hee hee

 Day 6: Least Favourite Orc

 I don't like ANY Orc! But I have to pick one, I'll pick the Pale Orc. ohhhh, I detest him! bleck. I will NOT put a picture of him on here.

I hope you've enjoyed this!

LOTR Challange: Day One - Favourite Film

Happy November everyone! 

I really cannot decide on a favourite film! I guess out of all of them (including the Hobbit) I'll pick An Unexpected Journey.

But then I do love the Return of the King, too.

Bye!
