Speaking of Lord of the Rings, I was in an MSN conversation a while back with [livejournal.com profile] nyalko80 and [livejournal.com profile] therealycats casually talking about various films.

A confession: I've never read the Lord of the Rings books.

*Shock! Horror!*

I just couldn't get into them. I tried, seriously, I did, but the prose style? Not for me. I mean, I recognise that they're very well-written, they have great attention to detail-- but I put the first book down halfway through, and never picked it up again, which is rare for me.

Anyhoo, I did love and appreciate the films. I loved Jackson's dark take on them, and was determined that, no matter what, I would see all of them and Avoid Spoilers at All Costs.

That was until my two friends said something like "oh boy, I can't wait for the third instalment, and to see how they do the bit where [Insert spoiler about Gollum's fate here].

Becky: AIEEEEE! No! You didn't just reveal to me the ending which I had up to this point known absolutely nothing about!

[livejournal.com profile] nyalko80 Um... you haven't read it?

Becky: NO! =:-o

[livejournal.com profile] therealycats Oh.

[livejournal.com profile] nyalko80 Erm...er...well, maybe we knew that, and we were making it up! You don't know for sure if that happens to Gollum.

Becky: *Cries* It so does! You're lying-- I can see it in your smiley's eyes.

Cute RotK. That bit with Gollum happens. Wow, I think, okay, so the second part of it happened, but at least he didn't do that chomping thing. Ha! In your face, spoiler gits.

And then it did happen. Pah!

*crushes their heads a la Lenny*

Dude! You were so part of that horrible plot-unveiling...

Is Lorne that green dude? I get Lestat to kick his arse!

I was so not! And I know I wasn't because I haven't read LOTR! I hadn't even seen TTT until after Christmas when I went and bought the DVDs!

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... *suspicious look*

You were at least in the convo. That's good enough for me. :p

[identity profile] therealycats.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
Well you obviously have the conversation saved, so why don't you prove I spoiled it if you're so sure. Because I know I didn't :p

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
Apart from the bit where I don't have it saved. It was on the uni computers, I remember... I was all shrieking in the library. ;)

[identity profile] therealycats.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. I see. Well. You have that for some bizarre reason. And that has to be like...a year old or something. Johnny and I think you're weird :p

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
Johnny say, "hella, shut up! My mistress is all right and stuff and if you disagree I will come over there and beat you into submission and then..."

Hey, Johnny! Save that for me! >:-o

See! He likes me best! My icon strokes her breasts. Do YOUR icons do that? :p

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... no... but if Johnny/Louis had breasts, that would be the end of my love affair with them. :p

[identity profile] nyalko80.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm, I don't think it was Stacy in that convo! I think it may have been Becksy or something. Or maybe KT? Or Joel? I don't remember who it was.

You have altered your Fraggle icon.

The "fuckin' 80s style" thing tickles me...

[identity profile] nyalko80.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yep! I was watching Jay and Silent Bob Strike back, and before they cound finish the Fuck Fuck song, I was all over the "Fuckin' 80's Style" thing and felt Red needed a little change.

Red's so cool!

Twat. Which, by the way, rhymes with hot.

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
Apart from the bit where it rhymes with "hat". And also the bit where there is a place in Scotland called "Twatt" and pronounced "twAt" that pre-dates European settlers arriving in America. :p

[identity profile] therealycats.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
You capitalize an "A" and expect me to know whether that sounds like "ay", "ah", or "-a-"?

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
You know what I mean! LOL!

Twat as in hat/cat/that...

[identity profile] nyalko80.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
Don't make me make more recordings, Becky! LOL

Did you listen to those, btw? KT had me laughing so hard that tears were rolling down my face.

[identity profile] rebness.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
Hee... unfortunately, I haven't got sound on this here computer... may try it tomorrow on the one with speakers...lol. I know how you speak, anyway. And Stacy. And Kelly. :p

[identity profile] therealycats.livejournal.com 2004-01-12 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Eyeliner on Johnny is hot. Johnny is just hot. Anything he wants to do is hot. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
