LotR dreams

[hectorberlioz]

aragorn is the most common character in my lotr dreams.
and bilbo.

[ryttu3k]

Cripes, I'm almost always a hobbit in my dreams. Possibly because I'm 4'10 with dark brown, curly hair -_-

Ummm... dream the night before ROTK came out, in which I was Saruman hitting PJ over the head with one my staff cos my scenes were cut... that was odd...

Favourite LOTR dreams include, quite literally the entire movie-based trilogy from the party to the Havens, from Frodo's POV; another was me as Merry, watching Pippin getting high off pipeweed and skipping around singing about his toe-hair. That was surreal but fun...

(And first post here! Well, again. I was on this board before the movies came out, "and we even forgot our own name...")

I once had a dream that i was on a hilltop with a fence all around us and i was part of a fellowship with me, Boromir and some people who were about my age but strangers. We were travelling across some grass land and i think we were going west because the sunset was before us. Then suddenly i was running from orcs with them but we were running through a piece of set apparently from Minas Tirith but nothing like the one in the movie, and i was saying that i had visited that piece of set in an exhibition before, only i haven't really. Then i was running in a tunnel under a theatre and i was with arwen, trying to avoid all of the people from my dance school, thinking how weird it was that middle earth was so near to the school. Weird!

Last night I has a dream...there were all kinds of species of fantasy creatures. There was a room for each different animal. I think there were some things from Final Fantasy (chocobos, cactuars, moogles, moombas, tonberrys, I don't remember.). There was also a room (the only one i remember going in) with ents. Actually though, only Treebeard and my little brother were there. (My brother was sleeping on a bed.) I was really happy to see Treebeard, but then I decided our meeting had to be like when he met Merry and Pippin. I just remember someone said that the colour scheme was like being hugged my an ent. That was the main theme.

I had 2 rather strange LOTR related dreams.

In one I inherited a mansion (which was, in reality, my school, except it was many blocks long) from Bob Hope, about 15 horses, and a SCUD missle launcher. Mr. Kessler, my Math teacher from several years back, owned a Fast Food restruant within the grounds, and he was also my butler. Anyway, the part that had to do w/ LOTR was this: both Merry and Pippin lived on the grounds in two of the thousands of bungalos that were dotted across the very confusing landscape [full of parking lots (w/o entrances or exits), walls (some very small while others were large), pits and large cracks in the dirt, and hundreds of P.E. classes].

In the other, I was at my house (although I still owned the mansion) and I was wondering why so many people were outside running around and bumping into eachother; and why I kept feeling slight tremors in the earth. Then someone rang my doorbell. It turned out to be Frodo and Sam wearing gas masks. They said that there was an explosion at my fiends factory, and radiation was leaking all over the place. I just stared for a while, until I broke the silence by saying "H-how could that happen?" (my friend owned a clothing factory). Then I remember retreating into the bomb shelter/pantry under my mansion. After waiting several minutes, I felt another slight shaking in the ground, followed by something bursting through the wall on my right. It was a Graboid from Tremors, except it had on chain mail. Then it began acting weired an spit out the One Ring. After that, the 3 tentacles came out and each one started beeping one at a time. A few seconds later, one of tentacles stopped beeping and started singing. Then I woke up and found out that the beeping and singing came from my alarms.

Weird, huh?

[Lady Ravyn]

no, not so weird as some of the dreams i've had. here's one i had last night, though:

i was laying on my bed, reading, when galadriel and gandalf walk into my room and start yelling at me for not doing my school work. they were telling me that i'd never get to college unless i destroyed the one ring, and i should throw it in mt. doom (which looked remarkably like my toilet sitting on a mountain...) so i threw it in, and then i appeared in a college admitance office, with this guy in a huge chair facing away from me. i starte4d stammering on about why he should accept me, and then he said no. when i asked why he said because i had destroyed his precious. he turned around and it was sauron, looking like the ghost of christmas past (from "scrooged" with bill murray) all of a sudden the music from the FotR when they're on the bridge of khaza-dhum starts playing, and i woke up to realize that the music was my alarm set on cd (i must have had the fotr soundtrack in there... now that was bizarre- galadriel yelling at me like she was my principal or something? weird...

[Nurvingiel]

LOL Lady Ravyn! Maybe that's how the Cracks of Doom got their name.

There are some really cool dreams in here! Has anyone had an LOTR dream recently? I haven't. I would need to read the books again.

[brego]

I dont remember my dreams, but I make up LotR stories in my head

[Olmer]

Usually I don't dream about anything I had been reading in the books, but I got one strange occurance.
It happened after reading on one of Tolkien's site a little fan-writing story, it calls "Nazguli-guli-guli".

Can't give a URL, because, any way, it's in foreign language, but in nutshell it's about having in the future an apparats with ability to create for the person a body which he wants. One of such apparat was ceased by Tolkien's RPG fans and they started worldwide to transform themselves into theirs favorite characters, but unfortuntelly with their look somehow they ascquired their personality too. Naturally it created unrest and blodshed in the world to the point that the World Council decided to separate all of them in Reservation fenced with electro-magnetic shield. Later, with electro-magnetic protection the tourists were able to fly over the island and walk in the Elven-built cities or inspect the built Towers.

A boy begs his father, a man, who once had been an active participant in RPGs and escaped the fate of his friends just because he had some emergency, to take him to Reservation. With hard heart the father was walking through the Reservation afraid to recognise in beautiful or hideous
faces the faces of his friends, but the boy was extatic and wanted to see the Tower and his favorite Nazguls. He called them as people call the doves:"Nazguli-guli-guli"...They not supposed to hear because of the shield,but they heard and appeared.To his horror the father realised that they learnt how to breach the shield and now coming to the boy with the voices like a rustle of dry leaves:"The Ring... The Ring.. give us the Ring, we can't come back to who we were without the Ring..."

At the end of the story they timely escape the danger, although the father had to be treated in revival mashine.

I went to bed with a thought about one of my friends, who is really got hooked on Tolkien's RPGs, that with such obsession you can become whatever you want to become even without the mashine.
Later I dreamed that this friend, all pale, came to my door saying: "I'm fading...I need the Ring.. the Ring..." Startled, I woke up and can't figure out if I still dreaming or awake, because I was still hearing the whispers.

What interesting is that night he was delivered into emergency with knife wound and the lost a lot of blood. He is OK now.
I'm still hardly believing that such creepy thing had happened in connection with Tolkien.

[Last Child of Ungoliant]

i had a dream about viggo mortensen, orlando bloom and sean bean the other night, but that's about al i can say ona PG-13 board

[trolls' bane]

INVASION! GHETTO INVASION!
Arise! Arise riders of Theoden!

I never thought we'd have ally with Sauron and Saruman! We must destroy the Rap before it corrupts us all!

And you link worked, but I only saw two lines.

I know. The guy either gave up his rap career or the link got moved. Now I'm going to have to search for the "Straight out of Hobbiton" rap.

2 nights ago I had a dream that Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin where staying in this old two story shack or something. Frodo and Sam were on the second floor. It was dark and raining hard. Suddenly, Pippin screamed and there was something that looked like a flash back of Pippin looking in the Palantir in Frodo and Sam's room. Then Pippin came in on this levitation thingy and made himself look taller than Frodo and Sam by levitating above there heads. Then he said, "I am Lord of the Palantir. Bow down before me."
Then Frodo and Sam levitated on their thing above Pippin. Frodo then said something like, "I will not bow down to you, for I have the Ring." Then I woke up, cold.
Then I repeated my dream to myself, to make sure I didn't forget it.

You remembered it clearly enough to repeat it? By the time I wake up and realize it was a dream, I usually have already forgotten it. By the time I'm in the shower, which is the first thing I do when I get up, I can't even remember getting up. By the time I'm out, I can't remember getting in. Everything after that I remember much better. Anyway, all that to say, I can't remember my dreams long enough to repeat them, which is really annoying because I have this wierd feeling that the dreams I have would pretty much make my career as a writer and give me a few plots for wierd operas similar in some ways to the Brave Little Vixen or the one where the guy fell in love with three oranges and got turned into a pig in the end by his grandmother.

I don't why, but I sometimes actually remember a few quotes from my dreams. Yeah, I get plots from dreams, too.

I sorta kinda remember what my Merry dream was about! Merry was in charge of this army of men. Then they charged. I think they were going to Edoras or something.

[Belwen_of_nargothrond]

All the time. I've dreamed about Legolas twice, Gil-Galad once, and not too long ago, I had an odd dream about Thranduil and Legolas was in that one also.

Then I had one dream that wasn't about a particular character in the books, but I think it was tied into Tolkien's works somehow. I dreamed I was walking through this large majestic forest. The trees were so tall they blocked out the sun. I walked along a path in the forest and I was aware of someone with me, but I paid him no attention. Then I came upon a small cottage. I turned to this person and saw he was male with long light blond hair and he was wearing a long white robe with blue trim. He smiled and motioned toward the cottage. The door opened and inside there was a beautiful woman with long dark hair sitting at a table. She motioned for me to enter and as I did I woke up and I'm sorry I did. This dream brought me so much peace and it was so beautiful.

[Jon S.]

Never had a LOTR dream but I have had a fantasy.

[Belwen_of_nargothrond]

I have LOTR fantasies everyday.

[Viëllémerwè]

I once dremt that I was Ulmo, instruction Tuor about his trip to Gondolin, when a giant speedboat crashed upon the shore. That left me quite startled.

[shesabrandybuck]

I have had so many lotr dreams that I seriously can not remember them all. I am very sad to say that I haven't had on in a while. But I do actually remember one I had a few years back and all I remember is that the cast (elijah, orlando, viggo, dom, sean, billy) all went snowboarding (including myself), it was a pretty awesome dream if I remember correctly...
