All Hail Jed!

I found the Jed Brophy Post To Rule Them All and must, according to my personal code of Tolkien geekdom, repost it here.







| Jed Brophy, everyone.

| | And don't forget


| | Rohan Jed Brophy as well!

| | wow this dude gets around

| | | Do not forget him as one of the Black Riders chasing Arwen

| | | | plot twist: all characters in LOTR and the Hobbit are played by Jed Brophy

| | | | Jed Brophy as Frodo

| | | | Jed Brophy as Galadriel

| | | | Jed Brophy as everyone


| | | | | Jed is everyone.

| | | | | Jed is you. Jed is me.

| | | | | A L L H A I L J E D

My brother and I literally cackled like madmen over this post. I'm still deriving way too much amusement out of that photoshopped FOTR poster... XD

Dwarves On Twitter... Again

I watched FOTR again over the weekend and had a fun time suggesting that every other extra was Jed Brophy. Here's what he has to say himself about the Ford of Bruinen scene:


Here's some other things the Dwarves get up to:



That reminds me. I have some gifs to post of Aidan and Dean being troublemakers... XD.

Let's Not Forget The Other Dwarves, Now

Because I think everyone needs to see dancing Nori.


With bonus Peter Jackson apparently thinking, "I don't want to know what they're doing behind my back, do I?"

More Nori dancing:


Also, dancing with Nori and Bifur:


And now, for Bombur dancing (sort of):


And now for Dean O'Gorman and someone who I presume is Stephen Hunter (Bombur)... sitting in an airplane or a bus, I'm not sure which. Probably a bus. Airplanes do not have windows that big, generally.


Also, Dwarves having too much fun in the Pelorus River filming the barrel sequence:


Bofur seems to have liked it:


Bofur in Laketown (I'm betting you anything they stay with Bard's family, and that will be hilarious since Bard's daughters are played by James Nesbitt's daughters... the potential!):


Bofur's ability to hang on to his hat and scarf is truly phenomenal. I'm wondering if he uses superglue... Nope, wait a moment. I think when Bilbo opens the door to the group of Dwarves at Bag End Bofur is in the front and falls flat at Bilbo's feet. I think his hat might actually come off there. Must check for it the next time I watch AUJ.

Can They Make A Movie Out Of This? Please?





Another movie, I mean. A modern day version of The Hobbit - pretty much "The Sons of Durin" on the big screen, only without the Bagginshield twist. It would be so amazing. It would be the best thing ever, second only to The Hobbit itself, of course.

Surely the fans can cobble something together, at least.

Oh, wait, they just did.

But it's only gifs! *wails and flails*

Yet Another Post In My Attempt to Spread Jed Brophy Appreciation

...Because, seriously, the man is amazing and deserves all the appreciation we can give him.

First, another gifset explaining the basic reasons why we should appreciate Jed Brophy:



Let's also not forget this one:


Rrider of Rohan Jed Brophy!

I would also like to take a moment to share a picture I found on Tumblr. Someone claimed: "James Nesbit (Bofur) is probably the silliest of all the Hobbit actors."

Some one else retorted: "Are you sure?" and posted this picture:


*dying of laughter*

The tags on this post? # NO WAIT THAT'S NOT SILLY #THAT'S UNBELIEVABLE

This is also a good opportunity for the long-threatened Jed Brophy Twitter Appreciation Post I am indebted to this person for finding these all). So, therefore, without further ado, let us commence.

 

Yes, he roleplays as Nori on Twitter. Seriously.


Both gross and hilarious. This cast... I'd also like to know who thought it would be a great idea to ask the cast that!! Seriously. I could think of so many better things to ask them.


Yes, he talks in rhyme for no reason. He also refers to himself as 'jedi', usually signing his twitters with 'xxjedi'. (Humorously, this conversation continued with Graham asking, "You wear pyjamas?" leading to at least one Tumblrite wondering if this means Graham doesn't wear them, lol.)



He really wants to be in Dean's photoshoot. I hope he got to be in it. Really, Dean, how could you say no??

Have I converted anyone yet? XD

Random Amusing Things

Hobbit-related, of course. What else did you think they would be related to, hmm? I sort of have a one-track mind these days.

Which can be a bit of a problem, as I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY need to be working on my own stories. I know I have promised not to talk about them on this blog (1., it would be incredibly confusing for everyone; 2., no one would care; 3., I inflict enough of it on my family as it is; 4., have I mentioned incredibly confusing yet?) and I know I have once or twice broken that rule, so I don't need to break it again.

Because incredible confusion would result.

Incidentally, my stories lead me to doing such things as trying to find the right spelling of 'psychosomatic' and to look up the different divisions of the atmosphere. Because I try to ground my fantasy world in real life. Not sure how much success I have, but the attempt is made.

Anyway, that is not what I am here for. I am here to post pictures and stuff. It's what I do, after all, even if only one person says they care (we have our little gigglefests over pictures and stuff; I don't mind, come join the party, enough for more people), which I am extremely grateful for. I feel less like I'm talking randomly to myself.

I do that enough as it is.

I really need to move on to the pictures...

OOH, SHINY!!!!


Ori, what are you doing?


Face it, the Dwarves need the directions, even if they are coming from an odd little man in the strangest trousers they have ever seen. After all, if they leave Thorin to do the navigating, who knows where on Middle-earth they'll end up?


What? I thought this gif was funny. Don't you? XD

Also, I found some more funny stuff from HobbitCon:

  • Fan: What did you think about seeing your face on a plane?
  • Mark: Mine was on the door so it didn't really matter.
  • Stephen: That's because you're a DORi.

  •  
    • Sylvester McCoy (about Matt Smith): ... And then a twelve-year-old stole my TARDIS.
     
    Ahahahaha.
     
  • Fan: In the book, Fili and Kili are the youngest, but in the movie Ori is the youngest. Why did they change that?
  • Jed: They asked us not to shave for a few days and the person with the least beard growth could play the youngest.

  •  
    Even more ahahahahahaha.
     
    Seriously though if you look in the WETA Chronicles books pictures demonstrate that Aidan had a very nice beard before they started filming. I'm fairly sure someone referred to him as 'Irish Jesus' somewhere but I can't remember where.
     
     
    The caption for this? "On a scale of one to Sylvester McCoy, how drunk are you?'
     
    The picture comes with a bonus Dwalin head. Seriously, he seems to photobomb everything. Maybe it's because he's so tall. ???
     
     
    JED, WHAT ARE YOU DOING???!!!!
     
    The poor fan whose picture is being taken with these guys... the poor fan... She (I assume it is a she) is going to either be scarred for life, or scarred for life and glad she was scarred for life.
     
    Oh, Jed...
     
     
    Dean, what are you doing now???
     

    Bored hobbits. What a sight.


    I'm really not sure what they're doing here, or pretending to do, rather. o.O


    Trashcans? Seriously, lol what. Trashcans?

    Yes, you're adorable, Dom. Please stop playing it up for the camera before we all melt from the adorableness.



     
    Jed. Again. Being more normal this time, thankfully.
     
    ...Wait, is he ever normal?
     
    Well, being less... flamboyant... than usual. Yeah, let's go with that...
     
    Oh, wait, here's some of him being his usual self:
     
    Oh, look, I finally managed to get two onto the same level. Not sure how I did it. I'm not doing to try to squish them together, either, a la Tumblr, because I'd probably accidentally delete them.
     

    I really have no idea what any of them are doing, especially the first three. Don't ask me. I'm clueless. It's in my job description.

    Why, yes, I found someone's stash of HobbitCon pictures. Are you really surprised?

    This next one might surprise you...


    I have absolutely no idea why someone thought it would be a good idea to dress as a bunny to a LOTR convention. Do you?

    However, the actors were gracious enough to imitate her, although some of them (looking at you, Dean and Stephen) don't seem exactly thrilled about it.

    Of course, the moment has been preserved in all its infamy for all posterity. *cackles insanely*


    Jed Brophy dancing, ladies and gentlemen. As viewed, in all likelihood, from someone's iPhone.
     
    There were also gifs of Dean.
     
    ...Oh my.
     
    I found a lot of gifs of Dean.
     
    ...Suffice it to say that this person has a Dean obsession.
     
    Oh my.
     
    I think I can fill an entire post with just Dean gifs. I mean, it's like you wouldn't believe.
     
    Why, yes, I do go randomly lookin up stuff to blog and type out my thoughts while doing so. Don't you? I tend to do that a lot - type out my thoughts. I don't know if it helps me think or not. It's easier to do it with typing than with writing, though, since my typing is faster than my writing and can keep up with my thought processes better.
     
    Whenever I send a letter to a friend (yes, I use snail mail), I really don't plan out my letters. I just sort of sit down and start talking. On paper. It's a sort of whatever-I-happen-to-think-of-and-write-down sort of thing. As I am very random, they are very random letters.
     
    They seem to do their job, though.
     
    Okay, this post should win an award for randomness. I think it's time for me to go to bed.
     
    *checks clock*
     
    Oh, most certainly.

    In Pace Christi,
