Everybody else is doing it, so I have to write about my visit to the LotR exhibition!

Okay, so I went to [livejournal.com profile] beanzy's Friday night, as you all know. Next morning we got up at 7 am (dies, and is dead) to go to the exhibition and were still 15 minutes late to meet up with [livejournal.com profile] rosemending and [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer. We proceeded to enter the exhibition. [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer and I kept losing [livejournal.com profile] beanzy and [livejournal.com profile] rosemending, I think they were sneaking off to perv on poor old dead!Boromir and ponder methods of smuggling him out. Meanwhile, [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer and I inspected the orc and elf/man costumes to discover that the baddied all have conveniently placed hard, spiky or otherwise unpleasant-looking shields over their genitalia, while men and elves have convenient openings right there (for quick inter-battle sex?) Also discussed: Legolas's skinny girl legs, and Viggo and the bearded women. When [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer and I heard about bearded women in one of the videos we looked at each other and had a very "You remember that thing? With the story? And Dom? OMG SO FUNNY!" and all the people around us backed up a step.

After the exhibition we bought icecream and then curry and went to [livejournal.com profile] rosemending's to watch ROTK EE because [livejournal.com profile] beanzy was an EE virgin. We introduced her to the delights of Hans Jensen. ([Bad username or site: beanzy: never go to a movie with me. I'm the loud inappropriate laugher.) We mocked Orlando Bloom's acting skills (well I did while <lj user=rosemending @ livejournal.com] and [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer glared and tried not to laugh.) Admittedly he had one very good moment - when Aragorn's life was in danger, interestingly. We also made ridiculous numbers of slashy comments and [livejournal.com profile] greedy_dancer informed us that hot monkey sex was appropriate in the middle of a volcano (which is, apparantly, a Freudian ejaculation) but not while being circled by sharks. We also had coffee-flavoured alcohol with milk and it was all very elite.

Okay, so I completely love all the girls I met and I was laughing so hard it hurt all day, which is a definite good thing. I've cried before during RotK but usually not because I thought it was so damn funny. Thanks for the good time ladies!

Then I went to my cousins' place and we pretty much played video games late into the night and the following morning (this morning) when it was storming too much to want to go out. I came home on the bus and voila, I am here!

Okay, so here's what to do if you want to cull the spam on your LotR (particularly RPS) friends list: Join [livejournal.com profile] four_lobsters. It has links to recs, pics, media, requests, anything and everything going on in the LotR fandom. So go friend it already! It'll be the best thing you ever do. Okay, well, maybe not ever. Solving world hunger would be better, if you could do it. But it's nifty.

Tired. Friends list skip still =250. *dead*

Pics! Elijah at Billy's premiere and Billy at his own premiere. And other events, because Billy's been a busy boy. And THEN some new Goblet of Fire (spoilery) movie images! Huzzah. First glimpse of the very, very cool mermaids and Krum.








































I think I'm actually going to run out of space on my second photobucket account soon. *facepalms*


Viktor Krum


Harry and his egg


Harry and his egg some more.


Dark Mark!


Mermaids. So. Cool.

ETA: doesn't anybody save their pictures with weird silly but methodical names like I do? It's always "dom142" or "omgcrazy" and never anything in between.

Glad you enjoyed the exhibition! I can totally understand the temptation to smuggle (or was that suggle?!) dead!Boromir. I went to the London exhibition and I have to say I am still far too amused by the pic I got there...

Oh and HELLO Viktor Krum! Raaawwwr!

I didn't get a picture *shrugs*

Yours is awesome though!

Personally, I wanted to steal the Fell Beast illustrations. Or pretty much any illustration on the walls.

From: [identity profile] di0nne.livejournal.com


The illustrations were amazing. I was blown away by the costumes too. Galadriel's dress was so detailed and labour-intensive.

I was amused by several women around the Aragorn costume each vying to touch it. I didn't do it myself! :-D

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


Yeah, I liked a lot of the costumes. I liked Haldir's weapons too!!!

I didn't try to touch anything that I wasn't supposed to *shrugs*

thanks to you too! it was great meeting you, and i do hope we'll do that again sometime before i go back home!!

i think that "having sex in the middle of an ejaculating volcano" vs. "surrounded by sharks" thing made quite an impression. i don't understand, i thought it would be obvious! o.O
