1. Stand up halfway through the movie and yell loudly, “Wait… where the hell is Harry Potter?”

2. Block the entrance to the theater while screaming: “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!” - After the movie, say “Lucas could have done it better.”

3. Play a drinking game where you have to take a sip every time someone says: “The Ring.”

4. Point and laugh whenever someone dies.

5. Ask everyone around you if they think Gandalf went to Hogwarts.

6. Finish off every one of Elrond’s lines with “Mr. Anderson.”

7. When Aragorn is crowned king, stand up and at the top of your lungs sing, “And I did it.... MY way...!”

8. Talk like Gollum all through the movie. At the end, bite off someone’s finger and fall down the stairs.

9. Dress up as old ladies and reenact “The Battle of Helms Deep” Monty Python style.

10. When Denethor lights the fire, shout “Barbecue!”

11. In TTT when the Ents decide to march to war, stand up and shout “RUN FOREST, RUN!”

12. Every time someone kills an Orc, yell: “That’s what I’m Tolkien about!” See how long it takes before you get kicked out of the theatre.

13. During a wide shot of a battle, inquire, “Where’s Waldo?”

14. Talk loudly about how you heard that there is a single frame of a nude Elf hidden somewhere in the movie.

15. Start an Orc sing-a-long.

16. Come to the premiere dressed as Frankenfurter and wander around looking terribly confused.

17. When they go in the paths of the dead, wait for tense moment and shout, “I see dead people!”

18. Imitate what you think a conversation between Gollum, Dobby and Yoda would be like.

19. Release a jar of daddy-long-legs into the theater during the Shelob scene.

20. Wonder out loud if Aragorn is going to run for governor of California.

21. When Shelob comes on, exclaim, “Man! Charlotte’s really let herself go!”

Um, I would never, and have never done any of those things. 

Really.

If someone said I did, they lied.

How about refraining from saying “I love you more than Jesus” every time Aragorn is on screen?  Complete with the breathless, evil whisper.  It can really piss people off!  (reference is Viggo as the Devil in one of the “Prophecy” movies)

What about crying out loudly “That’s my cousin in the orc-suit!” when 600.000 orcs are pictured?

Also, ladies should try not to moan in orgasmic delight too loudly whenever Arargorn is onscreen, it makes it difficult to hear the dialogue, oh, and other people have to sit in those seats afterwards

:drool:

Aragorn?  That’s nothing.  I swear, if I have to hear my wife make one more comment about that “sexy elf” I’m gonna puke.  She’s not sure if his name is Legolas or Lots-o-leg.

(I keep reminding her of the scene where Legolas is walking on top of the snow. . . “see honey, that faerie is totally light in the loafers.  You’re much better off with an Orc like me.” I don’t think she’s buying it though)

She made me go see :pirate:s of the Caribbean just so she could see elfie-dude again.

Tish brings up a good point and I think it should be high on the list of things women shouldn’t do during the movie. The theaters owners alone would be more than appreciative for the lack of seat-cleaning bills.

* (Do the Smeagol voice really loud) “MYY PREEECIOUSSSSSSSSSSSSS!” every time you see the ring.
* Everyone has not read the book and knows how it ends. Talk about it queing for tickets and waiting for the movie to start. Make people really overhear it.
* PFFWWBBD. Peoples front for ‘what would bilbo baggins do?’. Make t-shirts, come as a group and at the end when they’re to destroy the ring keep yelling ‘DON’T DO IT! DON’T DO IT! DON’T DO IT! DON’T DO IT!’
* Come dressed up as star wars characters and talk during the entire movie about how ‘yoda could kick frodo’s ass.’, tell the characters to ‘use the force!’, ‘the death star could kick saurons ass’, etc, etc, etc.

Those are awesome.

You probably shouldn’t go to the world premier parade dressed as a pirate either…

Wait a minute...I did that.

ooops…

*grins* good way of getting attention though.

Coolness! Now I get to find out what it’s like to go over my bandwidth limits! :-D

Seriously though, I think that’s actually the second time I’ve had my site mentioned in the comments to a /. article. Still, I’ll take what little bit of glory I can from it. grin
