Middle Earth Movie Meme - Day Twenty-Three

The Hobbit character you understand the least

        Well, although there are some characters that I really don't like, and some characters that I like that do things I don't like, I understand why they are the way they are. Unlike Denethor, who just, YUCK. He has no excuse. I can't mention his name without saying how much I utterly despise him. In The Hobbit, though, even the yucky characters are pretty understandable. You can chalk their actions up to greed, or whatever. The one who has the least justification, I think, is the Master of Laketown. He has plenty of resources, and yet he lets everything rot and hoards stuff he doesn't even use. He has no mind for his people and is a coward and a slob. I refuse to have a picture of him on my blog, so if you're wondering what he looks like, there's always Google. :) I've talked about the theme of corrupt power throughout these movies before (and the wonderful way Bard does not abuse his own), and, well, the Master is no exception. He, first of all, is greedy. For nothing. He hoards treasure and other valuables in his house, and lets them spoil and depreciate when the people outside are in obvious need. They are cold and hungry, and all the Master cares about is himself. He even betrays his sidekick Alfrid in the end, and even though I have no love for Alfrid it shows that the Master was only using him. He cares for no one but himself. The end.

Middle Earth Movie Meme - Day Twenty-Two

Costume you most want to wear

        I'm going to cheat. There is one costume I would wear every day, two I would wear if I lived out in the woods, and one that is just so luxurious I would love to have it to just look at. :)
        I would wear Eowyn's refugee costume every single day if I had it. It's comfy and practical, and there are a few different looks you can go with.
         There's a light blue dress with a split skirt, so I could wear this with leggings by itself or with the shieldmaiden corset.



        Then, there's a brown over-dress that would be perfect for working outside.


        Finally, there's a lovely coat that can dress the whole business up and keep me warm. :)


        The other costumes I would wear are Legolas and Aragorn's. They look so comfortable and tough, which is just what I need.




        Last but not least, Eowyn's green dress. This is the ultimate gown. I wish I could sew well enough to make it, but I suppose I'll just have to be content with looking at pictures. It is lovely.



Blessings,
Reyna

Middle Earth Meme - Day Twenty-One

Favorite couple

        FARAWYN FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!









        Need I say more? Their relationship is perfection, especially in the books and the extended edition movies. It's not an easy one, nor really expected, but they are so good for each other. They are both broken in some way and I CANNOT. Oh, and one last thing - THE SHAWL!!!!! It's one of my favorite things in the movie. Even though they don't talk about it, it makes me happy because it's there. That's all that matters.

Blessings,
Reyna
