    Enjoy the Christmas folks - because when you return...

    Necro, Barney, and a DemonicTalkingSkull proudly invite you to play....


    Lord of The Rings - The Fellowship of The Wolf

    giphy.gif




    Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
    Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
    Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
    One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
    One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
    One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them,
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

    Always thought it was a bit snooty Gandalf named the 9 as the fellowship but excluded himself from the count; and then proceeded to lead the journey.

    No the guy behind Boromir. Behind his left arm, but to the right of the photo.

    IIRC, its one of Gondors advisors or something....

    In, provisionally.



    Felt the films could have been better, but have read the books many times.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Never read the books but felt the films were good. I gave up the franchise half way through the hobbit 1 and was never tempted by sequels to it.

    I want to be the role of the tower that houses sorans all seeing eye.
    if you can make that happen, in.

    Are the books worth a read yeah? Read The Hobbit but couldn't watch the films, im a snob for sticking to source material

    Yes, a big fan of the LotR books. The Hobbit book was a bit too childishly aimed for my tastes and personally didn't enjoy much. I've never bothered with The Hobbit movies. The Hobbit book is about 1/4 the size of one volume of LotR (of which there are three volumes in total), yet somehow they stretched it out to three films. A blatant marketing gimmick that I wanted nothing to do with.

    Warning, there is a bit of "poetry" in the books, which you can skip over if they're not your thing, as they don't impact the story that much. Those bits are probably the bits that put people off the books. I like them though as they add to the sense of history and the world that was created, as do the appendices of the books which hold loads of cool information about the world and its history - if you're into that sort of thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    That was one of my biggest issues with the movies, the book has like 150 pages how do you make that 9hrs of screen time?

    Ill have to give them a read alright, ASOIAF (the Game of Thrones books) had songs strewn into them all over the place and i'd no issue skipping them so ill be grand on the poetry I reckon :D

    Have you read the Silmarillon or any of the other lore books?

    The hobbit book was fun. The hobbit movies were fun.

    That is the correct way of looking at it IMO :)

    I thought everyone read these books? Huh. The ring trilogy are fantastic. Hobbit is good but mercifully short. Silarillion is.... challenging.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,880 ✭✭✭MrsFlushdraw


    Not 100% sure I can commit to this now as my new job starts just after New Year. I can't take the pi$$ and be on this right away. If I can play in evenings, that will be grand, but apart from lunch break I wont really get on.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,933 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Nigel WW BH signing up!

    Was always going to but waited to see how drained I'd be after the last game. FKN very drained is the answer but twas great fun and I loved reading these books when I was younger
