The End!
(music swells, fade to credits)
And the Story Continues … By request, we’ve reopened the thread
“… and this big guy, an Ent, I think. Big, strong, you know, the toughest. He comes up to me, tears in his eyes, this tough Ent, just bawling. ‘Mr Sarumon, sir’, he said, ‘I just wanted to thank you for working so hard, for making Middle Earth great again, I had lost all hope’. Lost all hope, can you believe that? This big Ent, I had never seen… amazing the crimes Crooked Gandalf has gotten away with, isn’t it?”
Can’t Help Lovin that Precious, Yesss! (apologies to Jerome Kern)
Oh listen Baggins,
I love that ring of mine
And I can’t tell you why.
There ain’t no reason
Why I should love it so,
It must be something
That the Dark Lord must know!
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly
I gotta love One Ring ‘til I die
Can’t help lovin’ my Precious, Yessss!
Tell me I’m lazy, tell me I’m slow
Tell me I’m crazy, maybe I know,
Can’t help lovin’ my Precious, Yessss!
When it went away, that’s a rainy day,
But I’ll get it back, that ring is mine
And how it shines!
I’ll get it back, you wait and see
Hole without ring ain’t no home to me
Can’t help lovin’ my Precious, Yessss!
Has it really been nearly 20 years since I posted in this thread?
Andy Serkis singing:
Never going to give you up,
Never going to let you go
Ha ha you’ve been Ringrolled.
This really should have a companion thread: What if Tolkien had written your favorite book? (Assuming that isn’t LoTR.)
