Tolkien Blog Tag

 





Happy Tolkien Week! I am back to break my one year silence with another tag by Hamlette at theedgeoftheprecipice.blogspot.com

Today is the beginning of her eighth annual Tolkien blog party! Go check it out and let's jump onto the blog tag questions. 


1. What Tolkien character do you think you're the most like?

I'm not sure why, but I think I'm most like Merry. 


2. What Tolkien character do you wish you were more like?

Eowyn. She is strong and loyal and brave and has room in her heart for all.


3. What would your dream home in Middle-earth be like?

I think I would want to live with the elves in the woodland realm if Thranduil wasn't king. 


4. You get to make a movie of the story of Beren and Luthien! Who do you cast as the leads?

Do they have to be alive? Because Tolkien and his wife are the obvious choice. 


5. Have you ever marathoned the LOTR or Hobbit movies?

Not quite. My siblings and I have watched them all in the course of two weeks, but I would call it marathoning them. 


6. Do you have a favorite song or track from the movie soundtracks by Howard Shore?

Concerning Hobbits, Into The West, and Riders of Rohan all come to mind. 


7. Which of Tolkien's characters would you like to be best friends with?

Eowyn, for reasons listed above. 


8. Who of the people in your real life would you want in your company if you had to take the ring to Mordor?

Members of my family. Who they are depends on our route to Mordor. 


9. Have you read any of Tolkien's non-Middle-earth works?

Letters From Father Christmas. I don't think I have read any others. 


10. Is there a book by Tolkien you haven't read yet, but want to?

There are multiple that I haven't read, but I want to read The Book of Lost Tales this year. 



Hamlette,

This year's questions were super fun to fill out. I can't wait to see what the rest of the week brings:).
