Luthien and Beren

I found this while reading "the book of lost tales two" it is the second volume in the histories of middle earth. I was reading chapter one "the lay of Luthien" :
" You must choose, Beren, between these two: to relinquish the quest and your oath and seek a life of wandering upon the face of the earth; or to hold to your word and challenge the power of darkness upon its throne. But on either road I shall go with you, and our doom shall be alike"
Isn't is lovely!! (:

Lord of the rings tag

I saw this tag over at Austenitis and thought it looked really fun so here is my answers! (:

Books:

Have you read the books? 
Yes I have...In fact they are my favorite books ever!! (: 

Provided you’ve read the books, which is your favorite?

Well it is a really hard choice but I suppose I would have to say The return of the king...though the Two Towers would come in a very close second and I also love the fellowship!! (:

Have you read The Hobbit? 

Yes...that is what brought me to tLotR..

Have you read any Lord of the Rings companions? 

No..not really...

Movies:

Have you seen the movies? 

Yes....I love them, but I still prefer the books by far!!! (:

Have you read the any movie guides? 

yes..one bye Jude Fisher for the Fellowship of the ring..

Which is your favorite movie? 

Hard choice!! But I suppose that I would go for the return of the king again!! (:

What’s your favorite scene from the trilogy? 

Hmm....Can't really decide on one! but I suppose I could try to narrow it down! (: Well one of my favorite scenes is the battle of the black gates...and I also love the drinking game between Legolas and Gimli (Extended...) And everything with Faramir or Legolas in it!! And MANY MANY more!!

What scene do you find exceptionally touching? 

Well I can't really say...but the end (At the harbor..) always makes me cry...and also Boromir's death..and most of the parts with Faramir...especially when he is with Boromir..(Extended...)

Have you seen the extended movies? 

Yes! I LOVE THEM!!!!!!

Story:

Tell us your three favorite characters (good luck narrowing it down!) and why. 

Wow this is cruel!!! ONLY three!! ): Well I suppose it would be: Sam, he is so loyal and sweet, even when all the hard things happen!! Well I suppose the last two would have to be Legolas and Gimli!! Because they have such a lovely friendship!! And also because Legolas-is an elf and he is so good with his bow and arrows and he is also such a good friend to Gimli and Aragorn!! Gimli-because he is so funny and a few other reasons that I am not sure of!!!!

Who bugs you most, in terms of being really annoying (but not necessarily really wicked)?

Well I suppose it would have to be Denethor!! I HATE HIM!! How could he be so mean to Faramir!! ): (Can someone please tell me how he could do that!! ) 
But there are a few...

What are your feelings on Boromir?

I love him!! in the beginning I didn't like him so much because he was so tempted by the ring...but in the end he is so wonderful, and when I saw the extended editions, you see a part where he is in Osgiliath before he leaves and he is so different and kind, and he loves Faramir VERY much!!  

Who do you like better, Aragorn or Faramir? 

Well, I suppose I would have to say Faramir...though Aragorn would come in a VERY VERY close second!!

Which Lord of the Rings weapon would you most like to learn to use?

Legolas's bow and arrows! No doubt in my mind!! 

What do you think about Eowyn? 

Well I have kind of mixed feelings about her..but for the most part I like her...or feel sorry for her...I do NOT agree with some of the things she did..but in the end it all worked out for good....

If you were going into battle, which character would you want to take with you? 

hmm...I suppose that I would take Legolas...but Aragorn would also be really good!! (: 

Which girl is your favorite? 

Weeelll.......I suppose that I would have to say Arwen...though I really like the book Galladriel! (: (: 

Which hobbit is your favorite? 

Well I would have to go with Sam...but I really really like Pippin too!! (: 

Which location is your favorite? 

Well I suppose that I would have to say Rivendell...but I love all the places!!




Yay that was fun!!!
Have a lovely day ~Naomi
