Oh, yeah, I know just what you mean. Stupid hormones. ;) Good for you though! (Whenever my friend Meghan is freaking out over a test I say "Be positive" and she'll say "Okay, I'm POSITIVE I'm going to fail." :roll:)

Or we could nickname them "JEW" or "WEJ" or "EWJ" or "EJW" or "WJE" or "JWE". Any of those. :P But personally, I like the Three better. :teehee:
Aww, sad! :hug: Well, who are your favorite LOTR characters? Whatever, the underdogs are cool! And the unloved people need love too. :yes: Aye, so he is! Even back in May I was starting to appreciate Norrie a bit more so I enjoyed his calendar pic (even though it meant I lost Will). ;)

Yeah! Let's do it! :bounce: Although maybe we ought to get someone on our side who's legally an adult, aye? :teehee:


lol, you said it, Pip! but what can you do against them? :disgust: anyway, thanks! I do my best. :P (I think I've heard someone else say that before... :P I sorta like it... :teehee:)

yeah... I think I like The Three better too. It's just easier to remember than trying to pick which one of those to use and what everyone else uses. :P
I know... but that's just the way it is. My favorite LotR characters are Faramir, Arwen, Aragorn and Legolas... so I guess two or three out of those four aren't really underdogs. :-D Aye, and it's too bad so many of the greatest characters go unloved. :erm: because they are all really wonderful! I enjoyed that pic too... although not as much as I would now. ;) I hereby dub this day as the Norrie Appreciation Day. *waves a magic wand around to make it so* :teehee:

We might at that. ;) but what adult would be on our side? *sigh*

Erm...eat chocolate! :P Hey, it works for me sometimes. You're welcome. :) (Really? I've only ever heard her say it - I like it though, it's clever. :P)

Good point! We'd have one person using JEW and one using EJW and one using WEJ and it would just get confusing. :teehee: Although I've just remembered the Three Stooges, but oh well. :lol: I guess there's also the Three Amigos and the Three Caballeros...er, don't mind me, I'm rambling again. ;)
AAAH! You like Faramir and Arwen too?! :bounce: (actually, what with your Arwen banner a couple weeks ago I should've guessed :P) That's awesome! They're two of my favorites, along with Eowyn and Aragorn and Pippin and Gandalf and Sam and... *goes on until there are no more characters* :P Anyway, I think that might have something to do with the fact that the actors portraying those "unloved" characters aren't as famous as the ones playing the lead roles? Or perhaps the merchandising companies know that the popular characters will sell moret than the unloved ones? It's screwed up, but that's how it is. :confused: Ooh, I like that idea! After all, there is an "official" Legolas Appreciation Day so why shouldn't Norrie have one too? :yes: November 24th is now James Norrington Appreciation Day! *writes on calendar* :teehee:

Uh oh... Darn! Stop raining on my parade! :P Perhaps Jack Davenport? :lol:

Aye. :yes: *Points to Post*

Or we could sue them and ask to give us Norrie... :teehee:

But either idea would work. :P

:laugh: To be honest, this idea hadn't occured to me. :teehee: Methinks we might have a bit of a problem sharing him, though. :P


LOL, that we might. :lol: Unless we get a cloning machine or something. :P

chocolate? did I hear you say eat chocolate!? Oooo, yummy! I would love too... but we don't have any in the house. :erm: :'( (it is clever. :))

aye, exactly. :yes: and with us here we have enough confusion... no need adding more into the pot. ;) no, no, as you told me, rambling isn't all bad. ;) and I like the sound of The Three Stooges. :lol: it sounds perfect for Jack and Will sometimes... ;)
Of course I do, Anie! :blink: I thought you knew that.... from our pms or from my posts in the LotR elimination game. :erm: ah, either way you know now. (aye, the many Arwen banners I "own" should've told you. ;)) I knew they were your faves with Eowyen and Aragorn. :yes: you might have a point there... actually I'm pretty sure you do. The bigger actors get more recognition than the smaller ones. So even if a "smaller" character is better than a "bigger" one he/she still doesn't get what she/he deserves because of those portraying them (and it seems like I've heard somewhere that it's hard for new actors getting into the business because they're overlooked a lot of the time... so it all fits together and makes sense). :annoyed2: well, I'm sure that has something to do with it too..... *sigh* but at any rate, you're right... I wish I could run some of these businesses... in fact why can't they just sign all of Disney over to me? :teehee: Awesomeness! :bounce: Glad you like the idea!

you here that, everyone?

November 24th is now James Norrington Appreciation Day!

how cool is that!? :P

sorry... hmmm, that would be awesome if we could get him on our side! :teehee: :bounce: you want to give him a call and ask if he'll help us? ;)



btw, hello and welcome back, LoR! :hug:

yup, it is! *is so proud of the new day she set :P*

anyway, you know I was listening to Kelly Clarkson's My December cd today and there's a song on it that so reminds me of the Norribeth story from Norrie's POV. It was called "Can I Have a Kiss" or something to that effect. some of the lyrics might not have been perfect for them but it was pretty darn close. :yes: I at least thought it fit... and now I need to buy that cd just for that new "Norribeth" song on it (and I think she's a pretty good singer too ;)). :P

btw, hello and welcome back, LoR! :hug:

Aww, how sad! :hug: I'm sorry. I have M&Ms and one brownie...I ate most of the other brownies earlier this week. :P

Aye, because sooner or later I'd be able to say "I leave you people alone for a moment and look what happens, everything's gone to pot!" :laugh: ;) You know what, you're right, The Three Stooges sort of fits them sometimes. :lol:
Oops. Anie is apparently blonde at heart. :blush: no offense to blondes! Thanks for your help, btw. Well, I know now... :P I know what you mean! I kind of understand why they emphasize the bigger actors, because their names bring in the money. But it's really not fair to the smaller actors who may be playing the more interesting characters, who get shoved aside. :( I guess all we can do is love the neglected ones, eh? :D Ooh, PD running Disney...sounds like fun! :teehee:

WOOT! James deserves an Appreciation Day more than almost anybody...I mean, I don't think the poor fellow even got a first name until DMC! :blink: At least, that's what the official guide and CotBP novel seem to indicate. :(

Huh, yeah, I will. Just as soon as I hack into Disney's inner workings and locate his number. :P


Welcome back LadyOfRohan! It's nice to see you! :hug:

Nienna 2, I agree, it is exciting! :bounce: I must watch all scenes with James in them next JNAP. :D

^aye, and depending on where you live it was even later. :P like here I think it was 10 or 11 pm. :teehee:

great! And now you lord it over me?! :( do ya think you could send an M&M through a post for me? :teehee:

lol, aye, exactly! :eyeroll: :lol: but that would be far to cruel to call them that all the time... (but there may be two you could call that all the time *directs a look at Pintel and Ragetti* :P)
lol, that's perfectly ok... I played Apples to Apples with my friends the other day and I guess apparently (from what it said I was) I'm an air-headed model-type of person (even though I'm definitely NOT)! :hide: so you're in good company here. (whether you want to be or not! :P) aye, you know now anyway... :yes: that's exactly how I feel too.... :( the poor little actors! I mean how are they suppose to GET big if they never get any credit to begin with?! hehe, doesn't it though? And you could be my vice-president.... :P the Merry and Pippin of Herenya's family running Disney... I don't know whether to hide or smile. ;)

Yes! yes, dear James does! The poor guy! :hug: I'm happy they at least gave him a first name and all that.... to make him a little more real and not quite so.... well, just like they made because they had to have SOMEONE. :(


Thanks! :hug: I hoped someone might see the connection.... because it's definitely there. :yes: (we're beyond help now.... ;) we're picking out songs the artists never intended that way and we're applying them to our fave characters (although we've probably been beyond help for a while now ;) :teehee:)

hehe, I've been doing that most of the day, dear Ara. ;) but I know what you mean! I could hardly take it when he came on the screen... and you know what the weirdest thing was? When that dvd first went in my fingers automatically clicked to watch the scene where he sets Lizzie free... :blink: It was like they had a mind of their own. :P So Norrie was just about the first person I saw in AWE today!! Huzzah for him! :teehee:
