FF:NZ Tolkien Themed Guessing Game

I am aware that this is a SW forum, yet my movie has much excitement surrounding it. That people have asked for such a thread here.

"There and Back Again" - A Hobbits Tale, By Bilbo Baggins. (A.k.A - "The Hobbit")

"The Fellowship of the Ring"

"The Two Towers"

"The Return of the King"

Nice one SFL!

----------

my turn!

What is the capital city of Rohan.

 

Chans - name the las names - plural - ALL OF THEM!!! lol - not just the Proudfeet,

never mind - hehe

Capital of Rohan... ?

I'll brb

 

Edoras

(see times in which i posted - didnt have to lok very long - it just came to me as i presed "post" lol)

 

I thought about that as I posted it, but I dont have the book with me so I couldnt do any research. I still got one!

 

Am I right in saying Edoras? Because if you are thinking of Minis Tirith, it is not the capital of Rohan as Rohan is North East of Minis Tirith, and a number of leagues away too!

 

yes you are right.

my last post was refferring to the proudfeet Question.

 

hehe - I know, but you never said if I was right or not

hmmmmm

What makes Urak Hai different from normal Orcs?

 

They have a different name.

 

The uruk-hai are able to go about under sunlight?
or according to the movie they are a cross-breed of goblins and Orcs

and the surnames are:
Baggins
boffins
tooks
brandybucks
grubbs
chubbs

Yes - they can travel under sunlight and are incredibly fast, cross-country.

 

In the original 1937 First Edition of "The Hobbit", what major event was re-written and subsequently changed in all other editions of the story?

 

WTF?!

You didnt get the answer right! you dont get to go!

greedy - far!

hmmmmmmmmmmm what event... Bilbo killed Gollum?

 

If I am right in that Bilbo killed Gollum in the original, this is my next question (and should have been my question before JP's )

What does Legolas mean?

 

Tree liker

 

SFL, I answered your Uruk Hai question correctly (from a certain point of view).

Anyway Legolas means Greenleaf

You haven't answered my jump-the-gun question correctly, so it will remain;

In the original 1937 First Edition of "The Hobbit", what major event was re-written and subsequently changed in all other editions of the story?

 

hmmmmmm

what web site did you use to find THAT out JP?!

you excell at using extremly hard "eye spy's" and so forth don't you!

 

I could just scroll off all the major events in The Hobbit...


The Trolls

Rivendell

Misty Mountains

Gollums Cave

The Eagles nest

Mirkwood

ElvinKings 'house'

Barrels down the river

Lake Town

Lonely Mountain

Final Battle

 

They are chapter names, not "events".

The chapter entitled "Gollum's Cave" is where the changes occur.

Anyone venture as to what they were (or what happened in the original book)?

 

Chapters?! HA! shows how much you know about the book

chapters:

An Unexpected Party
Roast Mutton
A Short Rest
Over Hill and Under Hill
Riddles in the Dark
Out of the Frying-Pan into the Fire
Queer Lodgings
Flies and Spiders
Barrels out of Bond
A Warm Welcome
On the Doorstep
Inside Information
Not at Home
Fire and Water
The Gathering of the Clouds
A Thief in the Night
The Clouds Burst
The Return Journey
The Last Stage

In the original, Gollum was caught and killed by the Orcs who Bilbo had escaped from nd was trying to get away from when he met Gollum.
