Oh man, you are making it REALLY HARD for me to postpone following your lead and watching all LOTR films one after another -- I was REALLY HOPING to make until the semester was over, but this is not helping! (and yes, that is exactly how it going to feel. And I hope we get to see as much tongue when he kisses Michelle.)
ReplyDeleteBTW, the night before the election I kept watching Aragorn's pep talk at the Black Gate over and over again. That, and Branagh's St. Crispin's Day bit.
That's amazing re: Aragorn's pep talk. It really is amazingly relevant, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad Obama didn't start singing in Elvish in his acceptance speech!
ReplyDeletewhoa, whoa, snowdrop, what are you talking about? that might have been the only thing that could have made Barack's acceptance speech even cooler! c'mon, just picture him up and singing that mournful yet redemptive Elvish tune, and tell me it is not the most awesome thing EVER.
ReplyDeletealso, tho i agree that we little volunteers are totes the hobbits, i kind of like to imagine him saying that line to Dennis Kucinich: "My friend, you bow to NO ONE."
There's something out there trying to ruin your presidency before it's even started...rush limbaugh? Talk about a cave-troll.
