And the weather in Elvish is… Gandalf-created storms?
Boy, are they crazy about the new Hobbit film over in New Zealand. Okay, you have to give it to Peter Jackson, he has come a long way since his early Fraggle-like porn movies and has moved on to covering JRR Tolkien’s books with distinction, single handedly revitalizing the NZ-shot movie economy in the process. But the weather in Elvish (or Sindarin, to those of an academic bent)?
I guess Wellington is kind of as near as you are going to get to the Shire on Earth (as opposed to Middle Earth), but, come on!
