Hey, i'm a huge lotr fan, and i didn't know if i should put this is the lotr category or the movie trivia category, so i'm sorry if i screwed up... but anyway... i was just wonderin if you have any random lotr trivia, here's one for ya...

When Aragorn, Leoglas, and Gimili find where Eomer and his little army slaughtered the horses.... Aragorn kicked one of the orcs helmet because he was so mad... he was actually just kicking it around for the fun of it, but he ended up crying out in pain instead, and peter jackson just kept it in the movie anyway, i thought that was pretty funny, do u have any others? laughing out loud laughing out loud

BingaBonga
obviously not, i am so bored, does anyone just want to talk about some random stuff?

Kitoky
I have a Lord of the Rings Trivia question -

After the sword, Narsil was reforged what did Aragorn name it as?

The Unknown
How old is Aragorn in The Two Towers?

KrazyK
68 or something like that. I know they say it but for the life of me I just can't remember.

The Unknown
Incorrect

Kitoky
Aragorn during the events of Two Towers is 87 because of his Numenorean blood.

The Unknown
Correct

The Unknown
Your turn

Kitoky
When the sword, Narsil was reforged, what did Aragorn rename it as?

Aurora
K, I'll bite on this game......

Aragorn renamed Narsil after the reforging, Anduril.

I'll start off with an easy one......

How old were Bilbo and Frodo on at Bilbo's Birthday Party? And on what date is their birthday?

The Unknown
In doing that, he broke his foot. It was all cut up and bleeding.

Kitoky
Bilbo -111 Frodo - 33


What did Tom Bombadil save the four hobbits from?

The Unknown
a tree

Kitoky
Could you please specify?

Aurora
Correct, But not complete. What date was it?


For your question: A:He saved the hobbits twice. Once from Old Man Willow and once from the Barrow-downs.


Q: What does Eowyn desquise herself as and what is her name?

A.D. Skinner
Eowyn disguises herself as a man named Dernhelm

In Fellowship...how many miles was it to the nearest crossing for the Nazgul to cross to follow Frodo, Merry, Pippin, and Sam ?

Aurora
Twenty Miles North

Q: Who makes the river flood (in the book) and who makes the water take shape as horses?

A.D. Skinner
Wasn't it Elrond that flooded the river and Gandalf that created the white horses ? I don't have the book with me...so I am unsure if this is correct or not.

Aurora
That is absolutly Correct!!!!!

A.D. Skinner
I have just recently begun to read the books again, and have forgotten so much from them.

What movie character in The Two Towers has quoted lines from Tom Bombadil ?

Kitoky
Treebeard - Peter Jackson liked some of the lines of Tom so he took the lines and gave it to Treebeard.

Who is the Shipwright from the Grey Havens?

Mithrandir
Cirdain (gave gandalf narya)


How old is Legolas within the books and the war of the ring

Kathrin
I think, he's 2913 years old... is that right?

Mithrandir
correct!

Corlindel
Q: Wich elf is sended by Elrond to help the Hobbits reaching Rivendell?

The Unknown
Glorfindel

Kathrin
Arwen has got two brothers... their names?

Kitoky
Elladan and Elrohir, and they're twins, yes

Kathrin
That's right!

BingaBonga
Q: Who was rumoured to go to Helm's Deep and fight? It didn't work out though...

Kathrin
I think... Arwen.

Kitoky
Movie wise, Arwen because PJ wanted to have Arwen in the some of the battle scenes but Liv Tyler said that Arwen can be strong evern though she doesn't weild a sword. In the books, no elf was supposed to be at Helm's Deep so.

Laviera_j
Hey that is right! u guys know a lot! I thought I did, but you know more!

Aurora
What breed of horse is Shadowfax?

A.D. Skinner
Shadowfax is a decendant of the Mearas.

And who gave Gandalf Shadowfax ?

Aurora
Ahhh yes Shadowfax is indeed a Mearas, but what breed of horse is he?

Tut, tut trick question! No one "gave" Gandalf Shadowfax. Gandalf took him from King Theoden's stables, when he returned no man could ride him.

A.D. Skinner
My apologies for not answering your question correctly...Shadowfax is from the Andalusion breed.

And yes, Gandalf did take Shadowfax from the Stables of Rohan, but in the 2nd book, upon the release of Theodan, Theodan gifts Gandalf with Shadowfax...does he not ?

love

Aurora
embarrasment embarrasment LOL I am thinking too much into the question. LOL yeppers u are right. Shadowfax is Andapusian. I was probally not clear in my question.

love

A.D. Skinner

Aurora
Hasufel

Aurora
What was the name of the horse given to Legolas?

A.D. Skinner
Yes ! Once again you are right my dear

A.D. Skinner

His name was ARod

Aurora

A.D. Skinner
144 Guests were at Bilbo's Birthday Party. ( keep in mind that it was also Frodo's Birthday as well )

What was Frodo and Bilbo's Birthday ? And how old were they ?

BingaBonga
Really, thank you! Which story did that sword come into. In The Silmarillion, it said the other sword did not come into the story, so that was all that was told...

BingaBonga
Frodo was 33 and Bilbo was 111 or Elventy-one stick out tongue

Aurora
and their birthday was Sept. 22

BingaBonga
Aurora, where did you find out where the other sword came in?

Aurora
I'll admit that I finally gave up and used the Ency. of Arda. I tried my best to find it without help, I know I have read of it some where but alas after a few days I broke down and looked it up.

Fire
it says so in FOTR

BingaBonga
Who's sword is it?

Sidhover_Cùdaur

Lord_Andres
how many Silmarilions are there?, a bit offtopic I know, now back too topic, what was the name of Melkor's fortress in the north?

BingaBonga
Yeah, I'm reading it. I've read all that a few times... I sometimes have to go back and read it twice... are you sure that Anguirel is in that story... because when Anglachel came into the story, Tolkien just said the other sword does not come into this story... and that was that.

BingaBonga
There are three Silmarillions. Melkor/Morgoth's fortress is called Angband. smile

Kitoky
I thought Melkor's fortress was Udun?

Aurora
Udun was his stronghold.

BingaBonga
I think that I'm going to be reading The Silmarillion about 5 more times to get half the information that it contains... erm

Kitoky
Oh.....erm......well any more questions?

BingaBonga
Oh, I have a question... okay, you know the Map of the West in The Silmarillion The 2nd Edition... where is Angband, is it not on there?

Kes
Ppl this is suppose to be trivia!

BingaBonga
Sorry Kes! Why did Maeglin betray Gondolin to Melkor/Morgoth?

Kitoky
Wow.....that's hard.....

BingaBonga
Give up? stick out tongue

Aurora
I admit you have got me! I finally gave up and searched far and wide and at the end of my search this is what I have turned up:

"a dark seed of evil is grown""a black swan is born that night the misty pond has got a new king""i'm trapped in darkness still i reach out for the stars i'm moving in silence i leave it all far behind""let us march on
to the fields of sacrifice i'm wondering why i'll carry on will i betray myself to rise""let us march on though there's no hope at our side let us be brave though by glory we are denied but don't you think it's time for us to bring to an end come play the song of death the wisdom in us both
will make it special guaranteed play the song of death""i'm lost in the depths of his eyes i can't flee inner pain caused insanity it's deep within the fear and the hunger enslaved and denied by my love and my enemies i'm the illgotten son"

BingaBonga
*claps* good! What happened to Elwing?

Kitoky
Uh.............

BingaBonga
....yes? Do you give up? stick out tongue

Kitoky
Yes...

Kitoky
Elwing sailed to Aman with his brother Earendil.

thorncrawler
ok whats the first line of all the films?

hrh_jennifer
FOTR: "I amar prestar aen, the world is changed..."
TTT: voices heard from inside the mountains "You cannot pass!" I think that's the first line, it could be some other part of dialogue from the balrog scene, though.
ROTK: "Smeagol, I've got one, I've caught a fish, Smeagol!"

KiraObsidian
Here's a trivia question.
Who cameo's in the Two Towers movie?

Congrats Tuna, Lego and Kit! You have conqured one of the longer questions here!

Lord Soth
Name one significant sequence cut out of each movie from the books (excluding the extended versions)

cgtuna21
scouring of the shire, the old forest

Kitoky
I think for the Return of the King it's the coming of Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth.....


Or is the Scouring of the Shire?



The meeting Tom Bombadil was not really that significant....

Lord Soth
Well by significant I mean sizable enouhg to be noticed, not necessarily important to the plot

So we have The Old Forest/Buckland for FotR
and the Scouring of the Shire for RotK

Kitoky
Flotsam and Jetsam?

I'm not really sure what you're going for here Soth...

cgtuna21
