thought i'd make one for these crappy lines:

do u remember the taste of strawberries and cream Mr. Frodo?

every time the phrase Mr. Frodo is used.

(low, trying to sound cool and mysterious voice) the Ring is mine! (frodo, cracks of doom)

give some more. . .

I think the lame strawberries quote is one of my least favouite, as well. Also, when Saruman melodramatically exclaims, to Gandalf in their fight in Orthanc, "You have chosen - the way of - PAIN!!" Oh, my god, WHAT?!

How bout:

"Go home Sam!" -Frodo on the stairs of Cirith Ungol

"Prepare to leave. The Ring will go to Gondor." -Faramir in Henneth Annun

"Why should we ride to the aid of those who did not come to ours, what do we owe Gondor?" -Theoden

That last line just seems like it was added in for no reason because all of the other characters just ignore him. I'm sure if he had actually said that Gandalf would've convinced him to ride to Gondor and not just leave expecting he will come. Instead he ignores him and starts talking to Aragorn

Good point, Manrevu. It does seem superfluous.
How about Gimli's "I canna jump the distance; you're gonna hafta toss meh!" Dwarf-tossing was already tongue-in-cheeked in FotR, while they were getting away from Balrog in the crumbling Mines of Moria - did they HAVE to revive that silliness?

P:dont worry, ill take care of you now. . .

I liked that one. To me, it seemed more like something Theoden (as portrayed in the movie) might have been more likely to think than to say outright but he certainly had a right to feel some bitterness at that point.

Anything said by Celeborn.

All of the above and the silly Arwen-bound to the ring lines and Elrond pushing poor reluctant and scared Aragorn to kinship and to the Paths of the Dead

yes and Arwen seeing her baby. I thought she was going to confess to her Dad she was already pregnant! And I am not joking, it looked this way.

durinsbane2244 · 05-20-2005, 07:57 PM

yeah:
Arwen

drmatically), you've seen my son!
Elorond: yes, and on that subject. . .
A: er, it was one time! even elves make mistakes!

What about Merry when Pippin is looking at the Palantir? He says Pippin's name seven times, and it sounds really dorky. "Pippin! Pippin! Pippin! Pippin!..." you get the point.
