Very Secret Updates

[meteordust]

If you liked The Very Secret Diaries, the very funny, very slashy, and very irreverent LOTR parody by cassieclaire, you'll be happy to know she's added new entries in the wake of the second movie's release. So far, she's done Aragorn's and Theoden's.

From The Very Secret Diary of Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Part Two:

Day Fourteen

Standing on battlements of Helm's Deep. Absolutely ridiculous number of Orcs headed this way. Who are we kidding anyway. We are so fucked. Perhaps this place has a side door.

Go read. Now.

Hello. I hit the random button and your journal appeared. I saw LOTR last night and hated it too. Here’s my post on it. (http://www.livejournal.com/talkread.bml?journal=johnshade&itemid=53650)

have a great weekend!

Hi johnshade - I clicked on the link to your post, but I couldn't access the protected entry. Still, if you didn't like the movie, I'd be interested in hearing your reasons why. One thing I should clear up is that I didn't hate the movie. I loved it, and any minor quibbles I had didn't spoil my overall enjoyment of the experience. (Apart from The Faramir Issue, that is, but that's already been pulled apart in countless other forums.) I like these LOTR parodies because they are subversive and don't hesitate to tip over sacred cows, but have obviously been created by people who have affection for the original subject matter.
