A Few Replies

Yes, the cut moves. Sometimes when a scene is shot, the director won't like the angle, so they'll just flip the film over to...I don't know: make it better. Make it line up. It really changes a lot, but it also causes those little annoying incontinuities.

Yes, Theoden's exorsism (spelling?) annoys me. A great deal. Almost as much as Saruman's gunpowder. Or the fact that Arwen is EVERYWHERE. Or, more specifically, EVERYWHERE SHE SHOULDN'T BE.

Also: I'm taking a count, for a lark.
Have you got anything to add, or correct me on?

“You will tell him, won’t you?”
“No one knows it’s here, do they?
“For that is why you are here, is it not?”
“Nothing dampens your spirits, do they, Sam?”
“But you’re part of this world, aren’t you?”
“What’s taters, precious, eh?”

Can you guess who says these lines (by the way, I may have mis-quoted. I'm doing this by memory only), and what they have in common?

Anything to add, have you?

And I am still very truly yours, aren't I?
