Okay, well actually it was Gandalf. But I found love with Frodo instead. Just chaste romantic kissing love. And then Gandalf was taunting him about whether he (Frodo) was gay.
The strange thing is that in real life I find Legolas cutest, then Aragorn, then Elrond. Even of the halflings I like Pippin best. In the movies anyway. I'm waiting to see all the movies before I read the books.
By the way, Frodo kisses like a chicken. Peck peck peck. But maybe I was getting him mixed up with Willow.

A year or so ago, I had a dream that several Hatrackers were in my family room watching a movie. Since I've only met, like, three, the faces were definitely off. It seemed like there were floating names so I could keep track of everyone. And for the life of me, I can't remember what movie we were watching.

Eruve Nandiriel - You're certainly not the only poster at Hatrack to believe this, and so please don't think what I'm about to say is an attack of your beliefs.
This subject has been debated ad nauseum, in every conceivable way, and has caused pain and hurt to people on both sides of the fence. There are a few people who post here who are gay, and they are absolutely fantastic people. To cavalierly make blanket statements like that can be hurtful to them, and so it's generally avoided unless it's within a thread that specifically deals with this topic, when people of both idealogies can defend their positions and listen to the other side.
To NOT mention your beliefs on this matter in a thread like this would not be condoning them, you would simply be reserving your comments for a more appropriate time and place.
Remember, there are a lot of posters around here from all walks of life. It always takes me more effort to be considerate of people by couching my words carefully, but I've found that it's also well worth it for everyone involved.
edit: To sound less condescending. Bleh.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone, I won't go any further into the topic here. I just thought that that's what he was asking about...
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Elrond? He still gives me the willies from The Matrix I hated him in that role. And for some reason, I think the first time I see/notice an actor, whatever role they are playing, I subconsciously think of as them. I hated what they tried to do to his accent and he played a bad character. So, he will never do anything for me.
Orlando Bloom, however, his a hottie. I liked him in Pirates of the Caribbean, which is where I noticed him for the first time. (Yeah, I saw LotR when it came out on DVD, but that movie does nothing for me. However, the second time I watched it, when LotR2 came out, I noticed him. I also notice Arogon, but once again, even though he is hot in LotR, his early roles, he was a jerk. Eww. So, no matter how hot he is, he doesn't do much for me.
And as long as we are discussing LotR, could they have found a bigger actor to play a dwarf? I mean John Rhys-Davies is 6'" tall and weighs, what, like 250? Maybe they did it to make Elijah Wood and Sean Astin look smaller, though I can't imagine that making someone that big look small was easy.
Oh, and I think it's sad that Ian McKellen is gay because that means he won't ever fancy me!

Well, we haven't talked about gay wizards that much. Wizard/hobbit love--sin or not? I'm guessing not because, really, neither one of them are men. So, God would prolly be o.k. with it. I mean, this is assuming wizards or hobbits even have souls.

I meant real life where I know that Ian McKellan is the actor playing Gandalf, and also where I don't also have a ring of power that can only be destroyed by throwing it into my hot tub. Because it's made of papier mache, don't you know.
I must say... I recognized Viggo Mortensen from 28 days, but I thought he played Jesus in the miniseries from a couple of years ago, which apparently he did not. But I don't always associate him with the first place I would have seen him, which was one of the Amish in Witness.
But I guess it shows I'm homophobic that I would post a thread about me and Ian McKellan but *not* me and Mackillian.

Kat, that was great!
HDD, I believe you meant a metaphor.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Of course, similie, simile and smilie also confused me for a minute. I thought you just spelled smilie wrong. Though, rereading it, I would have gone with analogy, myself. I think.

I guess this is one for all those threads about the word form decoding in defiance of mispelling. Edits to remove my A/S/L. Oh, how gauche of me.

pooka, there are many other forums out there that are filled with people trying to "hook up" and that is usually one of the first questions they ask. Here, it is a bit of joke because we generally try to respond to what is posted, not the type of body they used to post it.
It's kind of like the difference between going to a library for literary discussion and going to singles bar to pick someone up for the night. I think that Bok and Ralphie were trying to be funny.
Posted by Bokonon (Member # 480) on :
Ding-ding-ding! Kayla is spot on.
I was just making sure my referring to myself (or photos of myself) in the third person would be sufficiently, well, ludicrous (sp).
Except for the A/S/L thing. That was totally true.
. . .
Or not.

I'm sorry, Bok. I didn't really mean it. I just thought you were getting a big head, so I tried to bring you back down to earth. If I must admit, you do look good. There, I said it. *watches Bok's head expand*

It's that glamour of un-life that clings about his preternatural body.

Hey Bok, next time you go to Acadia, take me along, okay?
See, I've got this HUGE camera--in case your head won't fit elsewhere anymore...

Indeed he was.
And as a side note: Ralphie, it's kind of funny when you call Eruvė "Eru" - Eru is one of the Quenya names for God.

Posted by Bokonon (Member # 480) on :
Believe me, I knew you weren't calling me Gollum, and even if you were, I'm remarkably resistant to ego-shattering remarks.
Hey, at least I wasn't compared to Little Nemo, eh, Stormy?

Posted by LadyDove (Member # 3000) on :
Bok- Just because you seemed a little unsure, I thought I'd note that we could have guessed the "S" in A/S/L. ::pat pat::

I love how this thread twisted into a Bok-luvin' contest.
Wait! Why Bok? Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Because I was busy that day.
Posted by Bokonon (Member # 480) on :
Hey, there ain't no Bok-luvin' going on in here! I ain't nothing but tough love, like that piece of unidentifiable vegetable that gets caught between your lower-left first and second molars, no, your upper-right third and fourth molars!
Yeah.

Oh, and Sal - get yer booticus on AIM and tell me where the heckaroonie you've been, or it's over between us.
If you don't have AIM, then get it.
::taps foot impatiently::
Posted by Sal (Member # 3758) on :
I'm too considerate to post any pics, Bok. See, the rate at which Ralphie goes, she'd turn into a stalker for sure if I did.
(No AIM, sorry . Oh, and I've been busy driving around Boston trying to eliminate the competition...)

Why did I just read this entire thread instead of going to bed?
Anyway, I think Meriadoc is way hotter than he gets credit for.
Posted by Ethics Gradient (Member # 878) on :
I read this thread with the same sick fascination that I occasionally encounter when I start flicking through one of those magazins for teenage girls.
Also, Aragorn is hot. Especially that slo-mo bit in FOTR when he's on Amon Hen and he turns to fight the orcs and... *goes all dreamy* Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
EG, that just reminded me of this comment that Eddie made in a thread long long ago. I almost broke something, I was laughing so hard. Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :
I don't mind being called "Eru"...
quote: And as a side note: Ralphie, it's kind of funny when you call Eruvė "Eru" - Eru is one of the Quenya names for God.
Thanks a lot, JaneX! Now they're not gonna call me that anymore! (and how'd you get the dots over the "e"? )
And Annie, Pippin is hotter than Merry. Did I ever mention that my cat's name is Pippin? Yep, and my other cat's name was Merry, but we don't have him anymore. Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :
I had two kittens named Merry and Pippin, but a dog killed them.
Pippin is hotter than Merry, but when you look at the actors out of character, it is reversed, IMO.
Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
I had a cat named pooka, but I think the neighbor poisoned it.
I have to say, most of my dreams since thursday or whenever I started this have just been worrying and forgettable.
Maybe this was a true dream from the keeper. Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
Nobody noticed my Eddie Whiteshoes link??!! Come on people, it's hilarious!! Posted by JaneX (Member # 2026) on :

Thanks, JaneX!
Olivet, I'm sorry about your kittens. That's so sad.
Has anyone noticed how much cats and hobbits have in common? They both: 1. are very stealthy 2. love to eat 3. are hairy/furry 4. are small 5. tend to be "large in the belly" there was more, but I can't think of it now...
Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :
Yeah. I have since learned that it is just a BAD IDEA to name a pet after a favorite character in a book. My first pet cat was named Cat in the Hat, which somehow evolved into "Kitty Hitty"-- a name change that no doubt saved her life. She lived into her teens.
Every other pet I have named for a character has come to a bad end, or else had to be given up (I always find better than suitable homes for pets I cannot keep. Maneki Neko sleeps on a mink-covered window seat. Oedipus didn't get on very well when I got married. Pooped in the hubby's shoes. It was the gorgeous hubby or the gorgeous Persian. Tough call.
I now have Tess, who is well despite being named after a D'Urberville, Smudge, Aloysius, and Groucho/Hitler (depending on her mood). Think four is a lot of kitties? Tess was preggers when I rescued her, and I only found a good home for one of the babies (I'm PICKY). My sister has, erm, seven, I think.

pooka, you know I love you! Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
I did read your link from Eddie:
quote: By the way, are any other guys finding themselves disturbingly attracted to Frodo?
Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
Lalo knows that I link to that whenever I have the chance. It's just so stinking funny!!! Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
quote: Eru is one of the Quenya names for God
Uh oh. Not because Eruve isn't godlike, but I have an entire nationality of people called Eru...anyone who reads the story will think I copied...
Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
I find it odd that he uses the word "disturbingly". Posted by Javert Hugo (Member # 3980) on :
Lalo is both very smart and very sensitive. The bravado's a cover.
Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
One of my volumes of Encyclopedia Brittanica begins with "Lalo". I can't escape him. It's some French composer, I guess.

Posted by Nick (Member # 4311) on :
I don't understand why everybody thought Eowyn was so hot.
I think she's attractive, but she's not head-over-heels gorgeous, as many people here think. Now Galadriel, she was hot! Since most of the characters are men, I think women had more oogling time. No fair! Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :
I don't know what the deal is. I've only had one hot dream about Viggo Mortensen. In this dream, though, my husband is played by the guy most famous as Shooter McGavin from "Happy Gilmore". I think I was being played by Gillian Anderson :gives everyone a stern look:
We were touring a building of historical significance, like a library at University of Chicago or something. My husband has a cadre of no good cads, headed by Billy Crystal.
As we are leaving, Ian and I are slightly ahead of the group and there is a foyer enclosed by double doors. As we enter the foyer there is a moment of privacy in which I tell him of my longing to kiss him. He deigns to let me kiss his hand a few times. But to our horror Lt. Crystal is observing us through a forgetten window, one of the architectural distinctions of this venue.
Then the dream shifted into hanging out with Julia Duffy from "Intolerable Cruelty" and also a former neighbor of ours who was asking how we came to paint the interior of our former residence a pale green. I was puzzled as well. My first home was that color inside, a shade called "Infatuation" and my husband in real life had hated it.
