Love Match for the Girls

[Guest]

but if you're a male* (straight or gay) "Lord of the Rings" fan you might enjoy reading through the quiz.

I'm teamed up with: Aragorn
"It seems you seek a lover who doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve, a real man, strong, silent and determined. The kind of chap who can build a fire, track a man across hill and dale through darkness and survive in the wild for months at a time. Regular shaving may be beyond his reach, and you may have to make substantial concessions to secure his affection. Your dad won't be happy." [Well, I didn't need to take the quiz to find this out.]

Here's the quiz site: http://film.guardian.co.uk/quiz/questions/0,5952,855242,00.html

If you click GAMES at the top of the window you'll find other fun quizzes on LOTR and other filmic items.

Here's the blurb on a quiz befitting Lit. --
Sex on screen
As everyone and his aunty clamours to release their own list of the best and worst sex scenes ever, see how well you know the cinematic history of what we Brits like to call "nookie".

*Gauche: read the 4th line of each section.

Oh Perdita! We got the same answer. I never knew you wore pigtails! Wow *big grin*

I might have jinxed it though, much as I love Gorum's voice my precious, I think he needed a green bobble hat in the movie so I tried to avoid the obvious answers I might normally have chosen.

Actually *whispering* I've heard that there's a small scene in the third movie where he is going to be wearing the hat. Don't tell everyone though, us Kiwis don't want to be overrun by furriners.

Faramir. You seek a man who is cultured, dutiful, and morally upright. A man who takes the trouble to clean under his fingernails. A perfumed dandy, in short. You're welcome to him.



Whats wrong with good hygiene I ask?

 

[sanchopanza]

why the guardian i ask you? why?

Aragorn.

Sam...

Samwise Gamgee. It seems you seek a devoted, kindly companion, one who knows how to build a home, and won't give up on you when the going gets tough. You may like to wonder, though, why he spends so much time away with his boss, of whom he speaks in misty-eyed, reverential tones ...

What's sad... I do like devoted, gentle complanions, but the furry feet are bad...

I want someone soft, maybe a bit chubby, who I can hug and hold while I'm sleeping ^_^ is that so bad?

Whistfully,
Medi

Ah, Meds, I love you for wanting 'chubby' and spelling wistfully with an 'h'.

[Jenny _S]

Which one is Golom again?

If that's the answer you got, Jenny, then I'd be afraid. I'd be very afraid.

 

[Medieval-Man]

Actually Raph, I find that a very PRECIOUS thing. Infact I would say we loves that responce.

Sarcastically, and without a typo this time Perdita ^_^,

Faramir?
That fop? I don't think so.

But it was cool to describe myself as Round, powerful, inscrutable.

 

[Guest]

Oh Gauche, mine came out as Gollum.

This is what it said:
"Gollum. Being such a powerful personality yourself, you exert an insane pull upon weaker spirits. You are fated to end up with some snivelling wretch or other, who would bite off another man's finger to win you back. You may find that though people initially squabble over your affections, you'll eventually be cast on the rubbish tip by embittered former lovers. That, or cast into the fiery crack of Mount Doom."

Nice.

I got Aragorn.


Just for the record, the movie really does a bad PR job on Faramir. In the books he is wise, kind, strong of spirit and loyal to his father, but not at all mean spirited or inflexibile.
