To the prettiest girl in school--

--and before any of you high-self-esteem comediennes makes the obvious joke, we're using my definition of prettiest, thankyouverymuch.
Can I steal you off to the movie theater this weekend? Got a line on a pair of free tickets to Return of the King, and I bet you haven't ogled any elves in a while. :)

Name time and place and I'll be there in a shot.
Elves! Men with swords! Dernhelm!
Can I have siege weaponry for my next birthday? I just want a catapult. Maybe some ballistas...

Sunday matinee somewhere that isn't the city so I can drive, and we get something to eat afterward?
Cavalry charges! Piles and piles of dead Orcs! Dernhelm! And hobbitses, precious, mustn't forget the nice hobbitses. Merry and Pippin get to kick serious butt in this one, if they're being as true to the book as the other two were, and Sam just gets to be all kinds of cool. This is the one where Sam became my favorite character.
I'll see what I can do about the siege weapons. Have built a catapult once already, after all . . . :)

Sounds like an excellent plan. :)
Nasty bad hobbitsess! We hates them, my precious!
Merry and Pip! Merry and Pip! Dernhelm! Merry and Pip! Faramir!! Dernhelm! Merry and Pip! Did I mention Merry and Pip? DERNHELM!
Excellent. *grin* A nice battering ram would be cool too.

Ents! Nasty terror tactics with severed heads! The Lord of the Nazgul getting his butt handed to him by a girl! Eagles! Aragorn kicking butt and taking names! Suicidal arrogant dorks! Saruman being evil! (which I heard isn't in the movie, which sucks because whoa, Christopher Lee, but it was fun in the book.)
Battering ram, check. Want a castle you can then have fun storming, as the expression goes? :D

You say "getting his butt handed to him by a girl" like it's a bad thing... *grin*
A castle would be nice, but it wouldn't have to be mine. It's probably more fulfilling to lay siege to somebody else's castle.

No, I say it like it's a good thing. I thought it was great. First time I read the book, right after I made a note of "dwimmerlaik" as something cool to call people when I was mad at them, I started mentally pointing and laughing at the guy, because he was so about to get his rear served to him au gratin. Darn those ancient prophecies and their gender bias, huh? :D

Wanna cuddle up on the couch tomorrow with the first two in extended edition, for warmups? I'll bring popcorn and leftover fudge (if there is any; Miles really took to it. :)) if you bring drinks.
