Book: Which three people are directly involved in the crowning of Aragorn?

Movie: If you are standing facing the throne by which Denethor sits, to which side is Faramir standing while Pippin kneels to swear fealty?

Do you mean ' the company' as the fellowship, after they leave Rivendell, or do you mean Frodo and Sam, from the very start of the jorney, before they have met up with anyone.

Sorry, rephrased the question to make it slightly less confusing.

Sorry,

Is the 'party' just Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin?

Well, from the time they leave Bag End, 'the party' is whoever is traveling. The group of them, the central character being Frodo :)

[quote="Meldawen
Book: Upon leaving the Shire, with whom is the second encounter the party has?
[/quote]

Do you mean who do they meet while they are in the Shire, or when they have left it?

Sorry, I can't seem to word this question in a way that's clear enough :P I mean from the time they leave Bag End. Maybe I'll edit it in.

Small change of plans - these last two questions are from the entire trilogy (or they have the potential to be). Good luck!

Points:

Dark, Queen of Angmar --- 21
Elven Archer --- 9
Freya Baggins --- 4
Ea --- 13
Nymphadora Tonks --- 25
TheThain --- 18
pirateoftherings --- 32
smeagollum --- 8
Peregrin Took --- 16

Answers:

Book Question: Before their meal, Gondorians face west in a moment of silence. Hobbits, if they are guests, bow to their host.

Movie Question: It's in red and green with a sun near the top and two wavy lines near the bottom.

New Questions:

Book: List as many (valid) names or titles of Sauron as you can. From the three LotR books only. One point for each.

Movie: There is a similarity between two of the Re-Recording Mixers and the two Makeup Artists who worked on LotR. What is it? (YES, the answer to this is found in-movie)

As you have probably noticed I didn't submit the answers for the recent questions. Unfortunately, school and work take a lot of my time so I'm afraid I'll have to resign. I'm sorry, but I had fun while playing. You came up with some good questions. :-)
