iTunes loves me. It just started playing a happy selection from RotK. This combined with watching Ringers last night makes me SO NOSTALGIC! Oh for the halcyon days of the movies and the fandom and the hobbitshobbitshobbits.

Ringers is great, btw. Dom narrates and they have lots of great interviews with Tolkienists and damn dirty hippies like David Carradine and Viggo and there is so much pure love for us crazy fans. There's even a small discussion about Mary Sues and slash. Oh, and a great interview at the end with two hobbit fans sitting in the confessional talking about how hobbits are such better lovers then elves because they cuddle and they're there in the morning and then the make breakfast. Us hobbits absolutely have our priorities straight, stupid poncy elves. *snort*

Speaking of hobbits, I was Baggins-ing with the Pup today, rambling down by the river and in the woods. I wanted to go further down the path, explore a few places that I haven't seen since last summer but the Pup reached a certain point and decided to play the Gamgee to my Baggins. He very distinctly said, "We've gone far enough, it's time to go home now.", turned around and started to leave. I tried to beguile him further into the woods but he would have none of it and so we left. Now he's having nappies.

HOBBIT THEME! *sniffle* I <3 Howard Shore.

I should talk about Easter because it is my favorite holiday but I'm so distracted today. It's probably all of the Cadbury mini-eggs. They are crack in chocolate form.

Now I must daydream about having a snug hole in Hobbiton and watching all of the little Gardners grow up. They come by for tea and biscuits and I tell them stories and they tell me stories and then we go on nice long rambles that end with picking strawberries on the Hill and a lovely picnic. *happy sigh*

ETA: Now Pippin's singing! *flails*

Mmmmm hobbits.... *changes playlists to match*

I really have to see Ringers. I kinda love that Dom was so hard up for cash sentimental and geeky about the fans and the phenomenon that he narrated it. *domlove*

Billy's new movie is out this month! Huzzah! In which he wears several different pairs of underwear, including the fabled small hot-pink bikini panties.

I can't wait to see Billy's new movie. I got so excited last week when I read a review and then was crushed when I found that it wasn't playing in my sad little corner over the weekend. All Billy, all the time.

Ringers is love, as is Dom's need for cash sentimentality. The old fandoms still make me happysigh.

LOTR ROTK Soundtrack chokes me up sometimes, if I listen all the way through.

Absolutely. If I'm paying enough attention there are parts that make me cry nearly as hard as I do when I'm watching the movie. so.much.love
