 |
|
I'm in the mood for creating a Lord of the Rings drinking game based on the first movie in the trilogy. However, I am lazy and would like the kind assistance of the members of the OSA. So here's what I'm thinking on how to do this massive undertaking. First make a comprehensive list of all the characters from the movie. Then we start working on memorable scenes and/or lines that just cry out for a drink.
So to get the ball rolling, I have cranked out to the best of my memory, a listing of all of the characters from the movie. Please double check to make sure I have not forgotten anyone. If it all looks good, then feel free to start posting movie moments that are worthy of lifting up your favorite beverage (be it alcoholic or not) and having

*Snort* Not that I ever touch the stuff, you understand...  But if we're talking extended version, Lurtz licking his own blood off Aragorn's dagger just screams for a drink. Of course, that's pretty close to the end, so one ought to be nice and toasty by then anyway.
Oh, and how about every time Frodo opens those big, soulful blue-eyes wide and gives that horrified and yet confused look.

Ah, drinking games...
Possibly a sip for every time someone says "Doom" in that tone of voice...

Well, that's the point with a good drinking game (says the Voice of Experience). With TT definately anyone says the word 'Hope' you'd have to drink.
And anytime there are bodily fluids - spit, tears, sweat ... yah! let's tap that keg! whooo hoo!
Sorry, got carried away there but, see! I did so learn something in college. |

Once upon a time, some fangirls online got together and developed a drinking game for FoTR. Here is what we came up with (feel free to filch any item that sounds good):
One swig for the following:
1. Close up of Elwood's magnificent blue eyes (two swigs if he's frowning or crying)
2. Hobbits hugging or in any other way expressing their, uh, friendship
3. Aragorn doing something manly
4. Legolas flipping his blonde hair back over his shoulder
5. Boromir mentioning "my people"
6. Frodo falling down or "dying"
7. Gandalf putting something in his mouth
8. Aragorn fingering his sword hilt
9. The ring talking
10. Hobbits mentioning food
Two swigs for every time you remember a VSD line and can't stop giggling.
Note: Not a single one of us has ever yet completed the movie soberly. Tis a good drinking game then.
... And they lived happily ever after. The End. |

Oh, GAWD. When Ell was here visiting, we watched the second disk of the extended FotR, and at one point my husband came upstairs and said "I really don't remember Lord of the Rings being that funny."  And I blame the VSD for that.
VSD = Very Secret Diaries. I know there's a site too, but I have it marked here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/cassieclaire/
Very funny parody, a la Bridget Jones, where I think every single member of the Fellowship is gay. From Theoden's diary:
Day Eight
Vacation over. Gandalf arrived sporting alarming new makeover of his own. Gandalf no fun. Cannot abide anyone else having new and daring look. Prima Donna!
Brought along three boy toys of varying sizes. My squadron of hand picked bodyguards totally whupped by tiny hairy newt, pretty boy elf and unshaven tramp. Obviously, need better screening process.
Day Ten
Attacked by Orcs. Aragorn "No Skillz 2 Pay Da Billz" Son of Arathorn fell over cliff, thus avoiding sticking around for battle. So much for Hero King of Men.
So anyway, highly recommended. 
As for the drinking game, my contribution is anytime Sam repeats himself. "I don't mean to, Mr. Frodo. I don't mean to." And anytime someone opens or closes their hand with the ring in his palm. Far, far too many shots of that. |

Wow, I had totally forgotten about dear ole Muffin. I think after seeing Lassie running across the Dead Marshes to save Frodo and Barney the Purple Dinosaur hanging out with Saruman, I forgot all about Muffin the Talking Mule. Darn that demon rum. It keeps making me see things.

How about a nice dry heave?  That scene really squicks me out for some reason. It is worth two drinks to make sure I'm passed out drunk and won't have to see Lurtz cleaning his silverware.

ROFL! Now, see, I love that bit. Call me bloodthirsty (ha!) but I am positive the reason they cut that is because they didn't want the big bad Uruk-hai looking all sexy. But I'm aware that not everyone shares my tastes.
How about this - if you're still actually conscious by that point in the movie, you can either chug what's left in your glass/bottle/shoe, or you can hurl, depending on your sensibilities.
-Ell
Oh, and I gotta say - love the Barfie.
