They are like... gifs, I think. Anyways, just thought I'd share.

*distracted* Aragorn really is gorgeous, isn't he?

Posted by twinky (Member # 693) on :

BWAHAHHAHAH! Just the sort of silly I needed this afternoon. [Big Grin]

[ROFL]

Oh my goodness. I have never laughed so hard. I can't decide which is my favourite, although I think it's the last one.

Posted by Ryuko (Member # 5125) on :

I believe those came from Something Awful.

FUNNY!

although, those of a sensitive nature should be warned of PROFUSE swearing-- especially in that second one.

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

So how would I go about making things like that?

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :

Why the BEEP should they? Gandalf's funny that way!

"OW! My Eye!"

Posted by Olivetta (Member # 6456) on :

The third one was my favorite, I think. It didn't have any cussin'.

"One does not simply walk into Mordor"

"Yes, they do"

"Nuh-Uh"

Posted by TheTick (Member # 2883) on :

NINJA WIZARDS!

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

"They do.
They totally do."

I agree. [Smile]

WOOMCH!

*nudges Porter* You beat them to the funny! [Smile]

When I first saw the "One does not simply walk into Mortor" and laughed my pants off, I searched for the other ones and was so disappointed that they had so much swearing in them. They could have been funny, but they ended up sounding like one of my high school students.

But the Mortor one is hilarious. [Big Grin]

See, this is why I love Boromir... He's cool, and handsome, and FUNNY! Middle Earth Wenches always swooned for Boromir.

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

BRILLIANT!

I'm thinking of doing something like this, myself, but not LOTR. ::Shrug:: I've kind of started on a House MD and Exorcist parody, in this fashion. Some great photoshopping is involved, if I can brag on myself.

example:

T_Smith: Answer the Guess the Author Queries!

Also, I repeat my question. How would I go about doing this, showing consecutive images? Do I have to have any special knowledge of just a special program...?

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

Do you have photoshop?

If no, there are things you can get at www.download.com - the ones I am using do cost money, but there is a free trial on both of these.

koolmoves- flash program- 40 dollars

ulead gif animator - 15 days free

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

I have Paint Shop Pro...

Posted by unicornwhisperer (Member # 294) on :

The imaginary phone is the funniest. [Big Grin]

*cough*
*COUGH*

*wipes off monitor and looks around for cough drops*

Oh, Somethingawful, how I love thee..

Posted by Marek (Member # 5404) on :

[Embarrassed]

I read way too slow for most of them [Embarrassed]

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

Sorry, number 2 is the funniest thing I have seen in years.

"Aim for the lava Frodo!"

[ROFL]

-Trevor

Posted by Olivetta (Member # 6456) on :

For the record, the second one is the only one with swear words, the others don't.

Unless you count "frickin'", or "shut up" which maybe some people might find offensive.

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

Yep - the phrasing in most instances is regrettable, except for the "I'm blind!" punchline.... [Big Grin]

Derogatory names for homosexuals also abound as well as juvenile exchanges and slang.

But if you can tolerate the language, it is amazingly funny. [ROFL]

[ROFL]

Posted by Beanny (Member # 7109) on :

[Dont Know]

It wasn't that funny. Using dirty language ruins it.

Posted by Sartorius (Member # 7696) on :

Ack! That's too funny for it's own good! [ROFL]

Posted by Altáriël of Dorthonion (Member # 6473) on :

I don't see why using foul language ruins it. That's what they were meant to be used as. I guess its even funnier in this case because its not like you picture the LOTR characters using them.

Posted by MrSquicky (Member # 1802) on :

I don't know about the other ones in this series, but this made me laugh out loud a couple of times.

And yeah, the foul language from noble high spoken characters wsa part of the joke.

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

I dunno Beanny - "Aim for the lava Frodo!" is still way too funny.

"I'm bliiiiind!" [ROFL]

-Trevor

Posted by Altáriël of Dorthonion (Member # 6473) on :

Damn, I can't watch it. It's blocked...Do you think there may be a mirror to it?

Posted by 0range7Penguin (Member # 7337) on :

Ninja Wizards! We have a performance of The Sound of Music later today(Yes I am a drama geek) and I have to show that to some of the other cast members! [ROFL]

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

I just mailed you a copy Alt.

-Trevor

Posted by unicornwhisperer (Member # 294) on :

[Cry]

I can't watch it anymore!! The links don't work. NOOOOO!!!

Posted by TMedina (Member # 6649) on :

Do you want me to mail you a copy, Unicorn?

-Trevor
