Did I just participate in thread tipping?  Are non-Thralls even allowed to do that?  
*runs off just in case*

I think he was meant to portray the Monkey King in a humorous kind of way, the entrire movie has a funny undertone. But it still freaked me out, the same way it probably did you. And agreed on JL's acting abilities, they are not top notch to say the least 
Thanks for the little inside info about Chinise mythology
Great way to swing in a couple of staff-related Thranduil piccies. Though I might never look at that staff ever the same, Monkey Kings' magical staff has screwed me up a bit I'm afraid

You did help the thread tip over 
No idea you are not a Thrall, how is that even possible?

I *am* a black fox of Mirkwood, so I thought it should be obvious with whom my sympathies lie without having to claim said title.

Didn't know they hail from Mirkwood, that explains quite a lot indeed.
Lol  your selfie with The Elvenking himself. How did you manage that? You look very cute!

Hee... how can a truism from Thranduil get old
Mine is is a 2002 printing. Seems to be part of a Tolkien book run cos the artwork theme is repeated on HoME too.
Ooh, thread tipped! Good job!
Fan of both books and movies; I am a lurker by nature though it seems I have severely misnamed myself... for the moment.
 Thranduil Appreciation
Tis true: more appreciation threads for Thranduil exist than ME movies. Threadcount: XV

The littler (and slightly cheaper than currently listed) version I read about a decade ago:
And the larger (with larger print!) and more illustrated version I've still only begun reading lately:
(Here's hoping I miss the cut *Elbereth Gilthoniel!* )

Good heavens, gals! Haven't you posted everything from DeviantArt yet? 
Okay, Thralls - it's time for "Sweet XVI"!
