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!
"I did shatter his lantern, and that would have been pretty fair shooting, I can tell you, if I had been aiming at it!"

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

Ah I remember the wonderful "Gondor has no pants. Gondor needs no pants". How about: Truly, the tales and songs fall utterly short of your pants, O Smaug the Stupendous

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

"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." Who can blame the guy?

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.

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! I'm just gonna stop there.
