Today, I was looking for pictures of Haldir for a thread here in the lotr forum, and i cam across a picture of a cartoon, and it looked like him and a girl elf. I clicked on it, and i found fake pictures of orlando bloom and viggo mortensen doing some things that i really didn't want to see. Of course at the bottom of it, it said that this had nothing to do with tolkiens work and blah, blah, blah. I think that it's disgusting that people make a story like lotr into a bunch of gay disgusting sh*t. may i ask what you guys think of this load of trash?

LegolasIsMyMan
Oh god, i went to the same site, and it said Haldir loves legolas, i was so appaled,shame on ppl who have such small minds.

BingaBonga
and when you pushed back, well i didn't see the haldir loves leoglas and i didn't get what the picture was because i still thought it was a girl, no offense, then i realized that this was some gay porn lotr thing, and i'm like wtf? What the f**k? why would you do such a thing?

Aurora
OMG I am so glad that I did not see it! I can take alot of things but that would have made me blow steam out of my ears. It is disrespectful and just plain wrong. sad

LegolasIsMyMan
I know, ppl are a lil dumb these days, and rude to someone who has worked so hard to create something, and when ppl do somehthing to demean it

pinksuezo
lol u thought legolas was a girl elf? hahaha .

bLooMiLiCioUs
oh my gdness..thank god i didn't see it...and i don't want to either!!!!!!!!!!mad

Sifer
OMG u weirdo's. Chill out, it's a joke.

Exa
Yes, I also saw the pics, pretty stupid.

aniron
I've seen a cartoon pic of legolas naked lying down, I didn't think much of it, I just ignored it I don't think it was aimed at orli, but that picture u describe makes you think how bored ppl must be to create that sort of thing -sad-

Ushgarak
(shrugs)

Happens all the time. it is far more disturbing with Harry Potter I think.

nazgulinthedark
laughing out loud i find the lotr spoofs pretty funny, but i don't think i'd find the cartoon you're talking about all that amusing sad

sauron
i luv lotr spoofs, the pics of some are not nice to look at though, but its not a disgrace to tolkien, justr some small minded person who didnt understand the movies or books so has decided to belittle them, just get over it

nazgulinthedark
the spoofs are really funny, i think i'm going to go start a thread for them

BingaBonga
yeah, but these people actually use viggo mortensen and orlando bloom, not in cartoon, as real people and it looks like they're having sex, it's not a pretty sight.

mah
It's not that big a deal..

nazgulinthedark
EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.... sick

VengeanceGOD
lol...calm down people. It's just someone enacting out one of their many fantasies. That's what the internet is for.

And as for the beginning of this thread-the wording comes dangerously close to homophobia. Cut it out.

nazgulinthedark
What the f**k?

sauron
get over it, god, so what they put someones head on a body, big deal its not like its hurting someone, i could have a worse pic than that on here in five minutes, its not that bad, so get OVER it

LegolasIsMyMan
WE were just saying we don't think it is right for someone to do that, because it's not their place to.

sauron
how, they can do whatever the hell they want, so its one bad pic, its not a disgrace to tolkiens work, its a harmless bit of fun

on the net there are all sorts of awful pics

chil porn pictures of death and all stuff in that genre so if ur gonna start a complaint thread, do it on them, where it is actually disgraceful illegal and sick, not some kid sat at home deciding to put some guys head on another guys body, no1 coplaijned when there was the sam and frodo one posted on the site, or when there were araghorn and eowen, this makes you all sound like homophobes

i thank you, goodnight, il be here till tuesday

Sure, you are entitled to your opinions - and I respect that. But surely it said somewhere before you entered that site about the content. Surely there was a warning that you clearly did not heed?

I'm not a huge fan of slash: I don't write it but I don't mind reading the odd story. That doesn't make me a bad perosn and it certainly doesn't mean that I believe that Legolas and Haldir were gay - or Frodo/Sam, Merry/Pippin or what ever the pairing is for that matter. I KNOW that Tolkien was not implying even a TINY bit of homosexuality and, at the end of the day, I think that as long as I remember that, and take into account that (using Frodo and Sam as an example) the relationship that they had was beautiful and merely a friendship and I continue to respect Tolkien's works and admire his talents, I don't see how it could hurt... big grin

LegolasIsMyMan
yeah, ok.

sauron
*applause* well done camellia go you

Camellia
Additionally, I think that as long as the appropriate disclaimers are included, it doesn't really hurt anybody...unless of course, the Tolkien estate/New Line Cinema etc. have quite plainly stated that this sort of thing is unwanted...

...just my opinion!

spikeslover88
I am just glad that I did not have too see that! I think its disrespectful and yes its only a picture but if you were an actor and you saw something like that about you I think i would be mad. Plus I think the people that actually have the sick minds to take the time to do things like that really are pathetic and sad.

ilvorlandobloom
i just dont understand why anyone would do that, i mean, who the hell would actually wanna see that?

bLooMiLiCioUs
nah i actually find HP's harry/draco pair-off cutewink

mah
Now _that's more eww.

Camellia
How would the actors react??

To be perfectly honest, I get the impression that they'd laugh it off. I mean, I've read so many articles with Billy and Dominic and Elijah where they mention such things and laugh along with it. Must admit that I don't know about the others though...

Once again, I respect your opinions, but, think of it this way (and I am not getting at anybody in particular) it's not really that much weirder than having some fan devote their life to one single person - I mean, if we were to plaster our walls with pictures of a complete stranger who is unknown to the world and to declare that we are to marry them in the future, it is thought of as weird and obsessive....and yet, it's alright to go on and on and ON about how <<insert positive comment along the lines of 'hot' 'sexy' 'attractive' here>> a certain actor/singer/celebrity is.

Hmm, call me weird if you like (and yes, I too am a huge fan of particular actors and won't deny that I get a kick out of finding a new picture online big grin) but that could be thought of as just as disturbing....that, or these celebrities entering Middle-earth to save Frodo and his hobbity friends from a bunch of screaming fan girls - what ever you like I suppose. (See what I'm getting at Sauron? big grin)

Don't get me wrong, I understand that some of you find these sort of things (namely slash stories/images) offensive, but, may I ask what you were doing on a website such as that in the first place in order to catch a glimpse at these pictures?

Camellia
*prepares for the flaming of a lifetime*

mah
I second that entirely camellia. Great post, great points.

Camellia
Wow, support!

Thank you, mah! big grin

LegolasIsMyMan
I went to aol search and typed in "Haldir AIM Icons" and went in several, just went down the line it brought up, and it happend to be in one of them. I didn't intentionally find them. It wasn't like i was looking for them.

Camellia
Ok, fair comment.

I wasn't implying that you were, just wondering how you came across them. THAT I do think is slightly wrong - was it actually graphic? (so to speak!) - if so, there should have been a warning or no preview image unless selected...if that makes any sensebig grin

Hope I didn't offend you!

ilvorlandobloom
i just think its gross making fake pics of two male celebs HAVING SEX together. why would anyone wanna look at that?
its very disturbing...
oh well, theres nothing we can do about those perverted people out there.

Camellia
Like I said, you're entitled to your opinion...I'm to mine...

fini
uh people make fake pics alllllllllllllllllll the damn time..........so i dont see what these should make anyone anymore disturbed than others.

there are some REAL pics out there that are truely disgusting.......and this one, u gals are turning red for ,is NOTHING!!!

calm the **** down
sheesh as some mods said........its either a jokeor fantasy

LegolasIsMyMan
I just honestly think the ppl who made them, have lil or no brain, and no life at all.

BingaBonga
hey, i dont mind the cartoons at all, i mean the one with haldir and leoglas was funny, or it least to me, but when they take the real picture of viggo, and a real picture of orlando, and make them do things, i just find that weird. But you know, some people DO Have STRANGE fantasies... but i'm not one of them.... big grin

BingaBonga
yeah, that's about right...

i've also seen porno stories about lotr, and when i saw them, i immediately exited out, but i wonder, what has gotten into these peoples minds? roll eyes (sarcastic)

BingaBonga
No there wasn't, as i explained i thought it was a guy elf, leoglas, and a girl elf, someone else, i've heard of leoglas being with another elf GIRL some other time, but w/e, and so i clicked, and i found some wonderful pictures, i'm over it of course, but i believe that you can go too far with things... or be tooobsessive and the pictures i saw were someone that was obsessed with viggo and orlando being together, in disgusting ways. but i understand. and maybe i shouldn't have started a thread on this, but i wanted to know what people thought of this subject, and i know that a lot of people have come across it... but anyway, thanks for your opinions. smile

nephalim27
You know you're too old for this conversation when the people are shocked seeing fake pictures/movies of a sexual nature of any popular movie/cartoon/whatever. smile

sauron
iluvorlandobloom, you keep saying who would want too see that, well we have threads on this site about how hot is orlando, viggo is sexy, i luv them both, and so on, they are both attractive men, have you ever thought that a homosexual man might find something like that nice too look at, i mean come on, i seriously think that people need to calm down about this, it is one picture. and if i was an actor and i found that i would immediatly print it off and show everyone i knew as i would find it hilarious,


and yes i did understand camellia, that is one hell of a story isnt it, (its in lotr spoofs, i put two stories in, read them, they are good, also go to Hp forum, go into who thinks dumbleodre will de and read the death scene i wrote for him, tell me if you like)

BingaBonga
hey, i'm not too shocked about this, i just have never seen a thread about this, and its come up before in conversations, so i just started it. big grin

Fire
personaly I don't give a damn, and I doubt Tolkien would give a damn if he was still alive

mah
Yeah..shrug it off.

Camellia
*applaudes*

And at this point, the conversation should end....yeah right, not likely!

sauron
right the actors wont mind and neither should you, the ppl who made it just did so thinking they could cause an uproar as they have done in this thread we are giving them what they want

so ive thought of an ending for this thread, and they all lived happily ever after till the end of their days


goodbye this is the end, im going now *puts ring on and thread ends*

BingaBonga
why should the actors mind?? i mean come on they are rich and famous, these people are just jealous or just obsessed... haha that would be funny if one the actors started crying over it, that would be pretty pathetic... laughing out loud

claidisa_felton
slash is so hilariously funny that you cant be offended by it. it is extremely disturbing when its harry potter, i agree.

p.s. does anyone like my signature pic? i figured this was more of a movie site but still...

BingaBonga
yeah, i've heard about it with harry potter, i've seen it a few times, and thought that is just plain weird... it can be funny then it can be weird... really weird.

sauron
OMG what has draco done to his hair

and thats not the same actor is it?

Camellia
claidisa felton: fantsatic HP still there!!

I think his hair suits him like that!

Sifer
I looked at the pic of the dick from HP and immediately thought just that...What a Dick!

shaber
Fortunately the movie of LOTR, like the book, retained its majestic surreality throughout, no sordid realism.

BingaBonga
Wahoo for lotr, too bad for harry potter. no expression

VengeanceGOD
Yeah, the Harry Potter movies are awful, unfortunately. I'm scared to see Azkaban, since it's my favorite.

BingaBonga
i know! i thought that the harry potter movies did suck, and it's not like we could talk about it in that forum, they'd get mad, but i truthfully think that viggo mortensen would make a good sirius black, but anyway, back to this subject...

BingaBonga
and you know, the thread on lotr spoofs is good, since they are funny... thumb up

I have just finished reading this and must say I find most of it quite disturbing. First off I see nothing wrong with slashing and yet you do? Does this mean you are opposed to het fic also or just slash???
Personally I slash and usually a very select few.
I dont care for Legolas,hes a whore.
Time to wake up girlies and grow..there is no desire to make Tolkien roll in his grave,and no dierespect intended.
I understand you have homophobia and there is no known cure. You will be miserable and cranky all of your days.
By the way as Gildor I am Lord Glorfindels current lover and proud of it.
