"Fellowship of the Ring" Trivia - Page 48

Cirdan · 10-25-2003, 02:28 PM

right, gaffer.

The Gaffer · 10-25-2003, 03:14 PM

Okey doke.

So how did Gandalf close the door in the Chamber of Mazarbul?

Keith K · 10-25-2003, 10:42 PM

with a wizard spell?

The Gaffer · 10-26-2003, 07:33 AM

I think we need to be a bit more specific than that...

Turambar1982 · 10-26-2003, 01:45 PM

he held the door shut with a spell and after the balrog"fought" with him the ceiling came down

The Gaffer · 10-27-2003, 05:40 AM

Sorry for the hiatus..

OK, you're right so far, but after the balrog seized the door, used a counter-spell and the door started to open, how did Gandalf stop it?

Radagast The Brown · 10-27-2003, 08:05 AM

He cause a collapse of the cieling and blocked it.

Really, how do you suppose we should know that? Tolkien didn't note that.

The Gaffer · 10-27-2003, 10:54 AM

Er...well it's in my copy

Radagast The Brown · 10-27-2003, 02:35 PM

Where? Is it in 'The Bridge of Khazad Dum', or another chapter?

The Gaffer · 10-27-2003, 04:40 PM

Oooh, you're cheating!!

Well, I presume that I've expressed myself VERY poorly in this question, since the answer is in black and white in the Bridge chapter.

Gandalf says that he had to speak the "word of Command".

Sorry about that (or maybe I defeated the triviasters). Anyway, here's another question:

What kind of (walking?) tree don't you get in the Northfarthing?

Radagast The Brown · 10-27-2003, 05:01 PM

Oooooh! no! I found it now. not fair. I th9ught it's in another part of the chapter.

LutraMage · 10-27-2003, 05:44 PM

You don't get elm trees (walking or otherwise)

!

The Gaffer · 10-27-2003, 05:50 PM

(sorry, Radagast, I thought we were getting stuck so decided to move it on)

he he, well done LutraMage

LutraMage · 10-27-2003, 05:57 PM

Thanks TG.

Okay, it's been a long time since I posted a trivia question, and I notice that RtB is still on the prowl for new questions, so how's this? What happened immediately after Menelvagor appeared?

The Gaffer · 10-27-2003, 06:05 PM

those bloody elves burst into song again! (hurls taters) shut up will yer, some of us 'ave got ter be up at dawn to weed the beds

The Gaffer · 10-29-2003, 11:33 AM

The Gaffer's off on his travels for a few days so if that's right, someone else have a go.

ta-ta

Amea · 10-30-2003, 01:40 PM

*pops out of the surounding darkness*
I guess I'll have a go...
Translate this...
"Ash nazg durbatluk, Ash nazg gimbatul, Ash nazg thrakatuluk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul"
Good luck!!

*melts into the darkness*

***Valandil*** · 10-30-2003, 01:47 PM

Guessing...

Is it something like:

"One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them,
One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them"...??

Amea · 10-30-2003, 01:54 PM

* pops out of the darkness and shakes Valandil's hand*
Nice job

Your turn

***Valandil*** · 10-30-2003, 04:29 PM

Who watched and waited for Gil-galad at the Tower of Amon Sul on Weathertop?

PS: I DON'T actually speak the Black Speech, btw... HONEST!

Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends." "Very well,' he answered aloud, lowering his sword. 'But still I am afraid. And yet, as you see, I will not touch the creature. For now that I see him, I do pity him."
