Interviewer: Tell us about your relationship with Robert Downey Jr on set.
Jude Law: Oh, I love him. I love him.
Interviewer: Yeah? You had a bit of a bromance going on there.
Jude Law: What is this new term everyone is using?
Interviewer: Bromance?
Jude Law: Oh, it’s a horrible term. What about just a romance?
Interviewer: No, it’s not the same.
Jude Law: Why not? Why?
Interviewer: Cause then you’d have to star in a romantic comedy together or something.
Jude Law: We just have. Have you not seen it? [x]

Jude Law does not have time for any of that ‘No Homo’ bullshit…

FuCK JUDE LAW WENT FROM 0 TO 100 REAL QUICK

I have watched the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy just focusing on Legolas. And it is pure gold.

Orlando Bloom is a gift to mankind 

I will now watch the trilogy and purely focus on the elfboy. Just because this gifset makes it clear that this is a thing that should be done.

I wonder if he ever does the drinking game.

I want him to secretly have done the drinking game.

Ron always just fucking knows

If you remember, Ron was always weirdly good with Divination. Whenever he’d joke about a possible outcome, it would eventually happen in some roundabout way!

BUT MOST OF YOU DON’T REMEMBER THAT THIS USED TO BE A LEGIT FANDOM THEORY, THOUGH. Back during the “three year summer” between GoT and OotP, it was actually pretty common for people to theorize about Ron secretly being a Seer without realizing it. In addition to the quote above, most of his predictions in books 3 and 4 come true at some point in the series if they’re read broadly enough.

This was also accompanied by a fandom theory about Ron being the “seventh son of the seventh son“ — namely that the Weasleys had lost another son at some point before the series began, making Ron the seventh. If Arthur Weasley was also a seventh son, this could have meant that Ron was born with special magical abilities such as the power of prophecy. 

In the end, this theory was soundly jossed both by OotP as well as by J.K. Rowling, who stated in her March 2004 World Day interview that Arthur Wealsey had been one of only three brothers. Ron making ‘predictions’ was a result of his own perceptiveness and by sheer dumb luck; still, the ‘Ron is Actually a Seer’ theory was an important force in pre-2004 fandom and figured into a number of major fanworks of the time.

Another major Ron-centric fan prediction included the “Dumbledore is actually a time-travelling Ron Weasley” theory, which remains one of the most complex, far-fetched, and awesome popular fan theories ever.

FANDOM HISTORY IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF FAN CULTURE AND WE SHOULD MAKE AN EFFORT TO REMEMBER THESE IMPORTANT PARTS OF OUR HERITAGE.

The Harry Potter fandom is full of history. The OTW’s Open Doors project is working to preserve some of that by importing the Ink Stained Fingers Harry Potter fanworks archive to AO3.  Read more about it here!

Merry: confused awe

Frodo: confused awe

Sam: confused awe

Pippin: finally i’m getting the respect i deserve from these peasants 

so accurate i am choking on my carrot. this is making me giggle harder than it should. I love Pippin so much.

I don’t think there will come time when I’m not reblogging this. Sorry guys. 

no no no you guys don’t understand, Pippin is someone really important in the Shire! The books don’t talk about it a lot, and the movies won’t touch that stuff with a bargepole, but Pippin will be inheriting land rights to about a quarter of the Shire. He’s second in line to becoming military leader of all Hobbits. His dad is currently in charge of that stuff, but he’s completely aware of it, and educated for it, and that’s why he’s such an over privileged little shit in the books.

I thought it was a shame the movies didn’t talk about class differences in the Shire. Also puts M&P stealing food in an uglier light.

To be fair, at the time of the Party, Pippin would have been 12, which puts it back into a more acceptable light.  And they’re stealing food from Bilbo, a wealthy and eccentric family member, which again makes things a bit different.

But yes, when they call Pippin Ernil i Perrianath – Prince of the Halflings – they are actually completely spot on.

And when Pippin tells Bergil “my father farms the land around Tuckborough” he’s deliberately downplaying his class so that he can greet the boy as an equal rather than a superior.  It’s Pippin’s most adult moment in the series.  Bergil is engaging in a status contest which Pippin can totally win – but instead chooses not to compete.  Pippin is a gilded and spoiled lordling in the Shire, but he becomes a Man of Gondor.

Yeah, to add a bit of unnecessary trivia/level of preciseness, Frodo is the oldest of the four; he was born in 2968, was (obviously) 33 at the time of the Party, and so he’s 51 here. Sam’s second-oldest; born in 2980, he was 21 when Bilbo left and is 39 at this point. Merry’s two years younger than Sam, making him 18 or 19 in 3001, when the Party took place, and Pippin was born in 2990, so he was actually 10 or 11 during the Party, and during this scene they’re ~37 and ~29, respectively.

So yeah, Pippin’s the youngest by a lot. Plus, taking hobbit aging into account, he really is still in the equivalent of his teens; remember the Party was half to celebrate Frodo’s coming-of-age at 33, and Pippin’s around twenty years younger than Frodo

This fucked me up. I didn’t read the books and in the movie it was shown like Frodo took off with the ring like 2 days after Bilbo’s gone away, but it was 17 years after that. OMFG.
