lord of the rings meme: seven locations [1/7] → “I feel that as long as the Shire lies behind, safe and comfortable, I shall find wandering more bearable: I shall know that somewhere there is a firm foothold, even if my feet cannot stand there again.”
Still my favorite story from the Lord of the Rings set: Viggo Mortensen bonded so much with the horse he rode in the movies that after filming was over he bought it from its owner. If that doesn’t warm your heart I don’t know what could.
don’t forget that he also bought arwen’s horse for her stunt rider when she couldn’t afford it awww
#also don’t forget that for the rohirrim they put a call out for locals #bring a horse show us you can ride it and get a part in the battle scenes #and one women went out roped a wild horse and rode for a few days to set #and got to be a rider of rohan
also sort of relevant viggo also bought the horse that costarred with him in the movie hidalgo and subsequently took the horse (tj) with him to the red carpet premier.
Also most of the Riders of Rohan are actually women because when they put out that call mostly women showed up with their horses and the costume team just stuck beards on them.
if this isn’t the best post i don’t know what is

the lord of the rings + color, part 2
My hair for the LOTR-matathon this year!
Fishtail braids, french braids, regular braids… Sooo many braids! ^^’unprecedent levels of hair envy
This is so lovely! I know I could do this on someone else’s hair, but I think it would be really hard to do on myself… maybe with practice.
Lego Theoden did not think this one through
I may or may not have spent an entire afternoon watching all of the cutscenes from LEGO Lord of the Rings
let me tell you, the people making these things have WAY TOO MUCH FUN
#remember when eowyn thought legolas was aragorn’s boyfriend
the fact that it was supposed to be Aragorn and Arwen at first and that’s what Eowyn is reacting to and then they cut Arwen out of the Helm’s Deep battle and just replaced her with Legolas in every instance is one of my favorite facts about this movie
