It's a Desolation of Smaug PANTS thread! Can't Post

We're in the midst of an ice storm here, and since my kids are home from school making merry like a couple of Hobbit book Elves and I won't get any work done, I say let's have some fun! (As long as the power holds out, anyway...)


In case you're wondering, a pants thread is where we pick a line from the movie and substitute the word pants for a key noun, like so:

His pants were running low when Girion made his last stand.



You might need to add a couple of lines for context:

I found something in the Goblin tunnels.

Found what? What did you find?

My pants.

Good. You'll need them.


If you need some help with lines from the movie, check out this transcript kindly provided by a TORn member. (Sorry, can't remember who, but thank you!)


Here are a few more to start us out:




If you speak of this to anyone, I'll rip your pants off.


You would take nothing from me, Dwarf. I laid low your pants of old. I instilled terror in the trousers of men.


Have fun!

LOLíssimo! [In reply to] Can't Post

Thorin at Bree: Payment for what?

Gandalf: Your pants...someone wants you naked...

If your father has his way, we will do nothing. [In reply to] Can't Post

We will hide within our walls,
Live our lives away from the light,
And let our pants descend.

Don't mess with my favorite female elf.

Ah I remember the wonderful "Gondor has no pants. Gondor needs no pants".

How about:

I offer you my pants [In reply to] Can't Post

Thranduil: I offer you my pants
Thorin (slight smile): I am listening

……and later

Elf guard: Say what you like about our ill-tempered king, but he has excellent taste in pants. Come Elros, try them.

….and later still

Bard: I know where these pants came from.
Thorin: What of it?
Bard: I don't know what business you had with the elves, but I don't think it ended well.

oh dear, we've got six inches of snow with ice on top - this could go on all day Smile

Beorn and his distaste for pants [In reply to] Can't Post

"These lands are crawling with Orcs, their numbers are growing and you are on foot. You will never reach the forest alive. I don't like dwarves, they're greedy and blind, blind to the lives of those they deem less than their own.

But pants I hate more."

Greenwood the Great and Bilbo the naive [In reply to] Can't Post

Gandalf: This is not the Greenwood of old, the very air of the forest is heavy with illusion that will seek to enter your pants and lead you astray.

Bilbo: Lead us astray? What does that mean?

Thranduil: You have found a way in.... [In reply to] Can't Post


You seek that which would bestow upon you the right to rule: the King's Trousers, the Arkenpants. It is precious to you beyond measure. I understand that. There are pants in the mountains that I too desire. White pants of pure cotton. I offer you my help.

Two can play at this game! *chuckles wickedly* [In reply to] Can't Post

GANDALF: "And I would say the same to you. Take back your pants."

GANDALF: "One of them was carrying a message. It is Black Speech. Promise of Payment."
THORIN: "For what?"
GANDALF: "Your pants."

BILBO: "There is something else out there."
GANDALF: "What pants did it take? Like poka dots?"
BILBO: "Ye.... y-yes. But the spots were bigger, much bigger!"
(.....*standing twiddling thumbs* sorry Mister Gandalf...)

AZOG: [subtitle: "You promised me his pants!"]

OIN: "We've lost the pants!"

THORIN: "I would not trust Thranduil, the great king, to honor his word should the end of all days be upon us! You lack all underwear! I have seen the way you treat your pants...!

BARD: "You have no right, no right to own those pants."
THORIN: "I have the only right."

BILBO: "I merely wanted to gaze upon your pants, to see if they really were as great as the old tales say. I did not believe them."
SMAUG: "And do you now?!!!"
BILBO: "Truly, the tales and songs fall utterly short of your underwear, O Smaug the Stupendous."


Whoa, I think I overdid the game! Laugh I'm just gonna stop there.

..The Lord of Silver Fountains
.....The King of Carven Stone
..The King Under the Mountain
.......Shall come into his own

..And the bells will ring in gladness
......At the Mountain King's return
..But all shall fail in sadness
....And the lake will shine and burn

We came to you once. Starving, pants-less, seeking your help. But you turned your back! You turned away from the suffering of my people, and the inferno that destroyed our pants!

Through the open door
Is it fear you're afraid of?
What are you waiting for?
Love alone is worth the fight."
