So is that LIGHT Shadowfaxian or DARK Shadowfaxian ? one really must be clear on this

Precisely!

Just to be clear, are we talking about appearing  Shadowfaxian grey, whatever the base colour, or actually being Shadowfaxian grey, whatever the apparent colour? Because in either case we've still got some serious sorting out to do.

Ruby Red is a far more illuminating colour, I think, but who listen to me anyway?

Oh, I'm a regular at TORN.  But somehow I don't feel like I'm on the same page there sometimes.

And the color is silver.

{{{Greetings Parzival! Well met!
I should explain that Orwell, while normally quite a pleasant person, has a short fuse when it comes to the colour silver  
It all goes back to a fixation on the movie "Wizard of Oz" and a love of shoes.  
Just ignore him and you'll be fine

correct.

'Thus they roused from sleep a word of terror that, flying from Graegorodrim, had lain hidden at the foundations of the earth since the coming of the Host of the West: a Graerog of changing hues!'

I'm paraphrasin'

Caption this photo.

Thandy: ''Peter Darling. Bards says he hates his costume so I made a few design changes''....look....

Pete: ''oh gawd.........

Bard: ''I want silver spangly tights, I want silver disco pants, its not fair, I want to be fabulous too''.....*lower lip quivers*

PJ: So here are ten new pages of dialogue that Philipper and Fran whipped up last night. What's say we have a got at it?

Lee Pace: What the fuck, Peter.

Luke Evans: shitshitshitshitshit

I think Bungo has nailed the realism

Nice one Bungo.

Lee: So, I swing the sword at this tennis ball.  Then I turn, jump to the left, and kick this tennis ball.  And then I yell my line at this tennis ball?

Peter: Yes, exactly.

Lee: And the third tennis ball is......

Peter: The third tennis ball is Legolas.  

Lee: Oh right!  Sorry.    

Luke: Wait.  Am I bouncing down the hill at this point?

Lee: You mispelled Bard.
PJ: Hmm?
Lee: You spelled it "ARAGORN"
Luke: *internally* I'm so done with this shit.

Lee: ...and then I ride in on the elk. And you got all this from the appendices?
Peter: Err.. Sure. Sure.

Or something..

Glad to see somethings remain constant.. I love hearing how people visit Torn. I set foot in the place I get banned all over again without even having to be mean or rude. Just by making any comment LOL.

Wow. The onion taking Jackson to task, in the best way possible.

Wow, indeed, a bit much for me, yeah I get the metaphor that Jackson 'raped' the hobbit, but still.

Reminds me of the 'China Syndrome' episode of South Park

Yeah, the onion can take things a little too far sometimes. But I sort of appreciate how relentless the jab is.
