The Hobbit Caption Contest CXI Can't Post

Well this was supposed to have been Meneldor's turn; however, he seems to have been absent from the forums for a bit and I've been asked by Loresilme to step in as a substitute. Here is hoping that all is well and our M.I.A. poster will soon return! In the meantime, what might Gandalf and Radagast be discussing below?

Really very sorry about this Radagast old bean. It was entirely my fault, denting your sledge like that, but can we keep the insurance drones out of this please? [In reply to] Can't Post

Gandalf says.... [In reply to] Can't Post

"Don't be alarmed Radagast. It's simply the new computerized analytical system. Red means your staff is warped. Orange means it has termites. Green means it has a staff infection. Aqua blue means yours is knotty and that's not good with Christmas right around the corner."

"I found it is the small things.....everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keeps the darkness at bay.....simple acts of kindness and love." - Gandalf

Gandalf: "I'm worried about your mental health, dear cousin... [In reply to] Can't Post

...I hear you tied a team of bunnies up to a sled, resurrected a hedgehog...and...well, have you noticed you are covered in bird droppings?"

All the while Radagast thinks: 'Gandalf's hat looks like a giant mushroom...I should like to eat a mushroom like that...I wonder if he would mind if I took a nibble'

******************************************
Elves and Men and Dwarves gonna cower,
When I finish building my tower,
When I finish building my tower with the Eye on top!
Watch that Eye and see how it glowers,
Ain't no contest between the Two Towers,
Nosey folks'll peek thru' palantirs and their eyes will pop!
The battlement's black and immeasurably strong, an adamant mountain of iron,
A buttress of steel, impossibly tall, held aloft by the power of Sauron!
See that Eye a winkin' and blinkin',
Ain't no finer tower I'm thinkin',
You can keep Orthanc if you're thinkin' that I'd care to swap,
For my black and shiny tower with the Eye on the top!

But all worthy things that are in peril . . . those are my care.
For I also am a steward. Did you not know?'

This video makes me think you were right about Tom Cruise and "The Hobbit". [In reply to] Can't Post

Tom Cruise Discusses Video Interpolation.

I thought that The Hobbit films suffered from the soap opera effect in their 3D theatre incarnations--maybe Cruise would have talked Jackson out of that!


Treachery, treachery I fear; treachery of that miserable creature.

But so it must be. Let us remember that a traitor may betray himself and do good that he does not intend.

StingingFly for the Win! [In reply to] Can't Post

It was a close call between SF's imagined conversation and Loresilme's quip, but a decision had to be made. Go forth, StingingFly and post a new image!
