Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Countdown: 149 days

Notes from yesterday's TTT viewing:

• Legolas = elf!Confucius -- Which is my subtle way of commenting on Legolas's habit of spouting Random Elf Wisdom.
• Mmmm, goth!Gríma -- Needs no explanation, I don't think.
• L/G!!!!!! -- Yes, the "You would be dead ..." scene still gets to me.
• Mmmm, enraged!Aragorn -- That was re: the scene where they think Merry and Pippin are dead, and Aragorn just roars and mmmm ...
• Did M&P just hold hands? -- In the scene where the Rohirrim attack the orcs, and Merry and Pippin are jumping over corpses and stuff? They are so holding hands.
• Young nubile things in front of Ian McKellan! -- Ahahahaha! Um, that was re: the "The White Wizard will know" scene. Just. Two young, nubile things, just lying there in front of him! Between that and getting to walk into the Theoden's hall on Orlando's arm, Sir Ian must've loved shooting this movie. :D
• "Nice Hobbit." -- Because that cracks me up.
• Nazgûl were more impressive on horses. -- Well, they were! Sure, the Flying Ringwraith scared me, but not by far as much as the Black Riders did.
• Elvish = French -- Er? *scratches head* Oh! Right! The scene in Fangorn Forest, when Legolas and Aragorn randomly lapsed into Elvish, it occured to me that maybe this was because they didn't want Gimli to understand what they were saying, much like the way parents often speak French to be able to talk in front of the kids without them understanding.
• Gandalf: New And Improved! -- Why no, I don't seem to've been able to take anything seriously yesterday. :D
• Elwood's LITTLE TEETH! -- Sorry, V.
• Faramir = Robin Hood -- Well, they look like the Merry Men!

Writing in pseudo-Tolkien-style is hard, yo.

Oh, and because I finally got round to watching Sunday's episode of De Mol, my thoughts:

The first one I suspected was Sandra, because of the way she just disappeared during the first task. Then again, I also suspect that might have been a trick to draw attention to herself and make everyone think she's the mole. I don't think the real mole would've done anything quite that blatant, especially not first task in.

Corry was the second one I suspected, and the one I'm leaning most towards at the moment. I'm no star at climbing, either, but she kept on falling down because of the same move time and time again. And then, when Marc pulled her over (which I don't think she'd counted on, if she is the mole), the trying to stall, and then all the misses.

My third suspect is Stijn, for no other reason than that he was the one telling Marc he didn't have to cross. Hey, I never said I was rational.

So, for now, my money's on Connie, and my gut's saying Stijn.

I really have nothing interesting to say today. Pity, isn't it?

Well, at least you didn't make a Daz-White remark in conection with Gandalf!

And who wouldn't want to walk into a room with Legolas. (But can you say 'trophy boyfriend') Bet Sir Ian's other half wasn't impressed!

Dude, every time I see that scene, I want to hum There Goes the Bride.

[fricknfrack.livejournal.com]

I actually did that on my second viewing. *waves dork!flag proudly*

Bwah! Cut it out, you're making me want to write Gandalf/Legolas.

Also, Viggo apparently broke a toe kicking the helmet in that enraged!Aragorn scene. Owww.

This is bad?

Also, bwahahahahaha!

[synicism.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is bad, do not encourage the people in my head!

*g* That was the take they kept, too. I'm surprised he survived those movies, he beat the hell out of himself doing them.

At the moment my money is on her too. Indeed, she fell off many times and kept shooting the rifle knowing that the people were trying to sleep.

One of the guys (Marc Simons) works for ING Insurance in Brussels. How cool is that? It'd be so weird if he were the saboteur. *g*

I can't climb for shit either, but she kept grabbing the top too early, every damn time. That's suspicious, to me. And she had to fire the gun, but she took a LOT longer than the other two to finally get a hit, so.
