PIPPIN: "Anyway, you need people of intelligence on this sort of mission... quest... thing." - Pip "Fool of a Took! Throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!" - Gandalf to Pip after he knocked the skeleton and the bucket and chain into the well. "Baggins? Sure I know a Baggins - Frodo's my second cousin once-removed, on his mother's side and my third cousin twice-removed on his father's side, if you follow me." - Pip "'Gandalf!' I said at last, but my voice was only a whisper. Did he say: 'Hullo, Pippin! This is a pleasant surprise!'? No, indeed! He said: 'Get up, you tom-fool of a Took! Where, in the name of wonder, in all this ruin is Treebeard? I want him. Quick!'" - Pippin "The road goes on for ever," said Pippin; "but I can't without a rest. It's high time for lunch." - Pippin "Nobody else calls us hobbits; we call ourselves that," said Pippin. Aragorn: Gentlemen, we do not stop till nightfall. Pippin: What about breakfast? Aragorn: You already had it. Pippin: We've had one, yes. What about second breakfast? * Aragorn turns and walks away* Merry: I don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pip. Pippin: What about elevensies? Luncheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper? He knows about them, doesn't he? Merry: I wouldn't count on it. * Aragorn throws apple over trees for Merry* * Merry pats Pippin on the shoulder* * Aragorn throws apple and hits Pippin in the head* Merry: Pippin! "The closer you are to danger, the further you are from harm!" >BILLY BOYD: Which makes one wonder if they have ever lost a role because they were too short ... Boyd laughs. "No, I don't think so. But if I did - the bastards, I'd find a way to get back at them." Q. How is Elijah Wood as Frodo? A. He's an absolute idiot! No, no - he's amazing. It's perfect casting. Such a great guy. For someone who came from Hollywood as a child actor and matured into a man he's such a beautiful human being. Perfect casting for Frodo, because he's got all those depths. "To play one of the main characters in it, it's not the kind of thing you don't do. Oh, I'd rather not play Pippin in Lord of the Rings..., In fact, I'm trying to think - what else would you rather do, you know? I can't actually think of another job that I'd rather do." "Hobbits are a lot like Scots. It's all about nature and enjoying their land, which is a very Scottish thing." "The feet made you feel like a hobbit as well." |
