In lord of the rings online before you get into Moria proper you find bill the pony hiding among some boulders being hunted by wolves and you get to save him.
Pipeweed Merry & Pippin found in the ruins of Isengard? Fan favorite.
Steward of Gondor eating tomatoes.......
Just hopping on here in case it’s not well known, he’s eating off of a pewter dish. Pewter reacts with the acids in tomatoes to release bioavailable lead, causing lead poisoning if done long term. Lead poisoning makes you more violent and oppositional, as well as stupider.
Whaaaaaa
Pewter (silver +lead) used to be really popular because it was easier to work and more resilient than 100% silver. At least until we figured out it was leaching lead into food.
You just gave a better explanation than Rowling ever could for why wizards are all dumb
A+ for acting out the most disgusting scene in cinematic history
You need to watch more cinema but I agree. For that movie, it was nasty af.
They either didn't see Human Centipede or have some serious scat fetish
I've seen human centipede, but I honestly don't remember much about it, there was nothing except the very concept that has really burned into my mind like the tomato scene has.
That said I've seen LOTR trilogy more than 10 times, probably closer to 15, and human centipede only once
Human Centipede. What a cult flim icon. That movie is definitely on the fucked list. You see the sequels? Nothing hits like the orginal and the first time...but damn. They didn't improve lmao
It's a tie between that scene and Kevin Spacey eating a banana in K-Pax. That's a deeply disturbing scene and not because Spacey is a perv.

When everything after the magnum opus is shit, reverence for the old thing begins.
