The Poems of LOTR - Why does Aragorn think that it is cheek for Bilbo to make verses about Earendil in the house of Elrond?
The correct answer is 'Earendil is Elrond's father'
Well, we certainly think that Elrond liked Earendil, and it's hard for Earendil to kill Elrond's father, unless he committed suicide, which he didn't. :)
Lord Of The Rings Question 2
Ultimate LOTR: Fellowship, Part 3 - Further down the river the Fellowship catches sight of two great pillars of stone, the ancient kings of men, Isildur and Anárion. Collectively, Aragorn refers to these great statues by which name?
The correct answer is 'Argonath'
"Behold the Argonath, the Pillars of the Kings!" cries Aragorn, "Long have I desired to look upon the likenesses of Isildur and Anárion, my sires of old. Under their shadow, Elessar, the Elfstone, son of Arathorn of the House of Valandil, Isildur's son, heir of Elendil, has nought to dread!" I think the pillars, as they were rendered in the film, were perfectly awesome!
Lord Of The Rings Question 3
The Two Towers: Obscure Facts - In Chapter 3:VI, "The King of the Golden Hall", Aragorn points out a banner in Meduseld depicting an ancestor of Theoden, Eorl. To what battle is Eorl riding to in the picture on the banner?
The correct answer is 'The Battle of the Field of Celebrant'
In the golden hall of Meduseld, Aragorn sees a banner depicting Eorl, who is the ancient ancestor of Rohan, a king of old. He says "Thus he rode out of the North to the Battle of the Fields of Celebrant."
Lord Of The Rings Question 4
The REAL Lord of the Rings! (for musicos) - How many double basses play the famous low E-flat at the very beginning of "The Rhinegold"?
The correct answer is '4'
Wagner specified 8 double basses in the "Ring", but only four of them play the low E-flat; the other four double them up the octave.
Any double bass without a C extension has to tune the lowest (E) string down a semitone to play this note. In Wagner's day, that would have been all of them. Even today, I believe quite a few double basses don't have the C extension - double bass players, am I right?

Lord Of The Rings Question 5
Legolas Greenleaf: WonderElf - In "The Fellowship of the Ring", does Legolas ever smile? (In either the regular or the extended version?)
The correct answer is 'yes'
The only time he smiles a full smile is when Gimli is talking about how lovely Galadriel was. This scene can be found in the extended edition of the "Fellowship".
Lord Of The Rings Question 6
"Lord of the Rings" Actors' Middle Names - What is (Frodo) Elijah Wood's middle name?
The correct answer is 'Jordan'
Frodo is Bilbo's nephew and coincidentally they share the same birthday. Frodo and his gardener and friend Samwise are alone on the adventure from the River Anduin and on. Though the ring is destroyed in the end, Frodo loses his finger to Gollum.
Lord Of The Rings Question 7
'Fellowship Of The Ring' Trivia - What does the name of the watch tower on top of Weathertop translate to?
The correct answer is 'Hill of Wind'
For translations, check in the appendicies of 'The Silmarillion.' The watch tower on top of Weathertop is called Amon Sul, 'FOTR', p.250. 'Amon' translates to 'Hill' and 'Sul' translates to 'Wind' giving 'Hill Wind' or 'Hill of Wind.'
Lord Of The Rings Question 8
Familiar Faces from Middle-Earth - Known as a good character actor before "The Lord of the Rings," this unwilling superstar was thrust into the limelight due in part to the enthusiasm of his son for J.R.R. Tolkien's saga. He has appeared in "G.I. Jane," as well as a 2004 movie about a desert horse race.
The correct answer is 'Viggo Mortensen'
Undoubtedly, Viggo Mortensen's skills with horses helped him in many scenes in "The Lord of the Rings" and in securing the leading role in "Hidalgo" as well. But the fullness of his life exceeds his movie roles, as the many fans of his photographs and paintings can attest to.
Lord Of The Rings Question 9
Who Said It? - Who says, "Nin o Chithaeglir, lasto beth daer, Rimmo nin Bruinen dan in Ulaer," in "The Fellowship of the Ring"?
The correct answer is 'Arwen'
Arwen wakes up the waters to get rid of the Ringwraiths so she can get Frodo safely to Rivendell.
Translation: "Waters of the Misty Mountains listen to the great word; flow waters of Loudwater against the Ringwraiths!"
