Hullo Hall of Fire fans!
New topic up and ready: supporting characters of LotR. Who’s your favorite? Why do you choose this specific character? For the purposes of our chat, we’ll define ‘main characters’ as the Nine Walkers: Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Gandalf, Boromir, Gimli, and Legolas. Any and all other characters are fair game as ‘supporting characters,’ although opinions may differ on this definition of terms.
Look up a juicy quote or two, or be ready to share with us your impressions and thoughts about your pick. Is there a particular deed or scene that comes to mind? So who’s it gonna be? Hama? Ioreth? Prince Imrahil? Ghan-buri-Ghan?
This will be a fun chat, so jump on over and chime in.
Thanks!

Come on down for a chat with the Editor in Chief of Cinescape Magazine, Steve Hockensmith. This special event will be a moderated discussion, where questions will be filtered through one of our staff and answered in person by Mr. Hockensmith. To get an idea of the coverage The Lord of the Rings will see in Cinescape, you can check out this link to Cinescape Online, then select Lord of the Rings in the ‘Movie Previews’ pull down menu and click ‘View Article.’
If you’ve picked up a copy of Cinescape Magazine, you know that their coverage of Peter Jackson’s films will be a treat. We’re very excited to provide access for folks like Mr. Hockensmith to LotR fans and get a glimpse behind the scenes of this aspect of the movie industry.
