*******WARNING*********

Might contain some spoilers for those who haven't read the books. Continue
at your own risk

1. Stand up halfway through the movie and yell
loudly, "Wait... where in the world is Harry Potter?"

2. Block the entrance to the theater while screaming:
"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" - After the movie, say "Lucas
could have done it better."

3. Play a drinking game where you have to take a sip every time someone
says: "The Ring." (Heh, okay maybe this one isn't the best guys -
wcb)

4. Point and laugh whenever someone dies.

5. Ask everyone around you if they think Gandalf went
to Hogwarts.

6. Finish off every one of Elrond's lines with "Mr.
Anderson."

7. When Aragorn is crowned king, stand up and at
the top of your lungs sing, "And I did it.... MY way...!"

8. Talk like Gollum all through the movie. At the
end, bite off someone's finger and fall down the stairs.

9. Dress up as old ladies and reenact "The Battle of
Helms Deep" Monty Python style.

10. When Denethor lights the fire, shout "Barbecue!"

11. In TTT when the Ents decide to march to war, stand up and shout "RUN
FOREST, RUN!"

If these were original, they were very creative and funny.

6. Finish off every one of Elrond's lines with "Mr. Anderson."

That was good. [Smile]

12. Loudly proclaim while standing in line that you can not wait for Gollum to bite Frodos finger off and then fall into Mount Doom. It's always fun to spoil movies for people like that.

13. "Woot" loudly whenever Arwen or Eowyn appear on screen.

14. See the movie 12 times, memorize the lines with a friend, and then for the 13th time, say them out loud.

15. Critisize every little detail that is different from the books to the stranger sitting next to you.
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
15b. If that's too much trouble, make some up. "I swear, in the book, Aragorn had six fingers on his left hand. At the end, some spaniard killed him."

I love these, and I love Eruve.

Walk up to some random person, hand them a box, say "Take this, run!" Then hane a friend in a black cloak come and mug them while screaing incomprehensibly. We did that at TTT.

While waiting in line for The Two Towers, I bought a giant plastic spider at one the store we were in line in front of. We then got seats in the balcony and just waited for Shelob to appear so we could throw it on someone below.

...no Shelob. Drat. The spider has now been waiting a year for its big debut. [Big Grin]
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
#18) 1 giant oversized can of Raid for Shelob's big scene.

(You don't even have to use it. Just prop it up next to you and watchas the seats in front of you clear out.)

#19) In you best "Gremlin" voice, yell "Bright Light. Bright Light" whenever Galadriel's vial is used.

#20) Turn to person next to you and giggle, "Crack of doom my #$@. Hey mack, wanna buy a ring?".
 
Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :
 
21) After the movie is over, call everyone back to explain the parts of the book that weren't in the movie.

22) Be overly dramatic. Laugh too loud at the jokes, scream too loud at the intense moments, and give a blood curling scream of "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!" when the moment arises.

This is unrelated, but I was going to phone the pay phones at the theatre when the second matrix came out. So they'd ring all by themselves...

I couldn't find the pay phone number though, so i couldn't do it. [Frown]

Your right, that is unrelated.
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
#23) Bring a sign demanding "Best Supporting Actor" Oscar for the midget they put in the Gollum suit.

#24) As soon as the lights go out, start making the Gollum noise, followed occasionaly with "Quite my prescious."

#25) Stand outside the theater with a petition condemning this biased/racist view of a legitamate Orcish culture. Demand people sign.

#26) In TTT, during the Treant attack on Isengard, run up to the screen and thow green globs of stuff at it. Say its Sap. Say your with PETTS (People for the Ethical Treatment of Trees and Shrubbery.) Scream about this being the worst botanical misrepresentation since the Knights Who Said Ni sent Arthur in search of a Shrubbery. Then claim that 42 trees were killed in the making of this scene.

There's a spoiler warning at the top of the thread. You'd think if people hadn't read the book and they saw the first warning they wouldn't read the rest of the thread since it's pretty much all spoilers.

27)Every time Frodo is in danger yell (in your best Sam impression) things like, "Mr. Frodo sir, are you all right?" and, "Gandalf said Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee. And I won't."

#51 Debate Politics--Calling the Elves tree hugging Democrats who allowed gay marriage and thats what ruined their culture while Sarumon was a Fiscal Conservatives and Sauron was a more dangerous social conservative.

PS. The reason Phil Collins would make a great Tom Bombadil is because Phil Collins IS Tom Bombadil

As Sam and Frodo are going into the cave, mention that if Galadriel were all that smart, she would've filled the vial with RAID.

Complain that the terms "The Black Gate" and "The White City" are racist, and that Frodo was originally a black man.

At the beginning of the end credits, proclaim "No Oliphants or Fell Beasts were harmed in the making of this film."

During the beginning credits, proclaim, "FRODO LIVES!" Just in case anyone misses it, fill any long silences with "No, no...Gollum dies, not Frodo."

Comment on how amazing it is that they made an eleven hour movie based on a single Johnny Cash song.

After Return of the King appears in the beginning credits, orally subtitle it "Elvis, the Vegas Years"

Every time Legolas appears on-screen, let out a hearty "ARRRRR!"

X+3) Complain loudly how this whole thing rips off Gary Gygax.

X+4) Throughout the movie make as many Quake, Star Wars, D&D or Mario references as possible. Have a co-conspirator do the same. Keep track just like Legolas and Gimli.

X+5) Expand ad-nauseum how the ring was not really destroyed, but survives today, as seen as the mysterious item in the brief case in Pulp Fiction.

192) Don't be a nerd.

194) Don't get all excited when a physically attractive and completely unattainable actor/actress comes on screen.
195) Shut up for five seconds (especially if you're talking in Elvish) and let people enjoy the movie.
196) Wear deodorant for cripes sake! I mean, I know you and your friends don't mind if you stink up your parent's basement with your painful body odor, but the rest of us socially adept people do.
197) Don't clap at the end. Peter Jackson didn't make this stuff up, he just drew some pretty pictures on the screen for you and every other monkey who cannot appreciate the books by themselves.

I think I might have awakened the people next door laughing at that one.

90. Cut off one of your fingers. Extra points if you get someone to bite it off.

91. Tell everyone that this is Lord of the Rings III: The Search for Saruman.

92. Bring marshmellows to roast over Denethor's pyre.

93. Look hungrily at the person sitting next to you and say, "What about them? They're fresh."

115) When Aragorn and Arwen kiss passionately, say "Wait, I thought she was his twin sister. Or is he the Han Solo mythical archetype?"

116) Refer to Legolas as "Leg 3PO" and Gimli as "R2 Dwarf 2"

And when the orcs march to Minas Tirith and they cut scene to Gandalf, shout "Begun, the Clone War has."

Then again, if you can see it a few times and get Gandalf's lines memorized, it'd piss a whole lotta people off if you Yoda-ized everything he says.

Heh...that's kinda what I did at FotR. Every time Legolas appeared on screen, I'd say, "Man, that is one ugly chick!"

123) sit at your computer obsessing about how much fun everyone who got advanced tickets is probably having right now.

126) When it's over, say "That was pretty good. But I don't understand how melting the ring in a volcano destroyed the earth-crossing meteor Sauron. I don't think comet tails are typically that red. And I thought it was imperative that Elijah Wood go with the people to the underground dwelling. And wasn't Liv Tyler's boyfriend supposed to get blown up saving the world in the end?"
