Curious Things about the RotK movie: (spoilers, obviously. But if you haven’t seen the movie yet, you do not deserve to live, much less deserve to be shielded from spoilers)

  • Sam and Rosie have the same reddish brown hair. Elanor is blonde. Baby Frodo is a brunette. Does this worry anyone else?

  • At what point does Frodo realize that he’s not dead? I mean, he’s physically and emotionally beyond the point of exhaustion, he hasn’t eaten in days (and he hasn’t eaten decently in weeks), he probably experienced heavy blood loss, he goes to sleep or falls unconscious or whatever in an environment no one could survive in, convinced he’s at “the end of all things”, then regains a bit of consciousness to see that he’s flying through the clouds in the claws of a great eagle, then he wakes up clothed in white, bathed in light, and the first person he sees is someone he thinks is dead. Then all his friends come into his room and everyone is happy and dressed prettily and Merry and Pippin are freakishly tall. If I were Frodo, I’d be like, “Oh no, you guys are dead too?”

  • There were other things, but I can’t remember them right now, so back to homework.
