A big brother is an all seeing system that spies on all the people and monitors and tracks all their movements...

As from 1984 by George Orwell, "Big Brother is watching you"

the fellowship on big brother hehehe...

Boromir and Gandalf would be up for eviction first, with everyone sure Boromir's had it, then surprise the public vote off Gandalf.

Boromir goes week two and every week until the 5th or 6th week Legolas and Gimli nominate each other, until they find they quite like one another and gang up on Aragorn.

In week 4 it is discovered Pippin is secretly using a palantir to influnence voting and is disqualified and thrown out.

subsequently a new housemate arrives to replace him in week 5...

Gollum is soon booted out to screams of 'my prrrecious'

it's the last week and three housemates left who are you going to vote for to win Big Brother 3rd age?

Aragorn
Frodo
Sam

:D

i'd vote off Aragorn, he'd scare me, he's to good at everything, he'd find out everybodies secrets and stuff like that.
i'd probably want Frodo to win

As from 1984 by George Orwell, "Big Brother is watching you"

Have you read it? It was to me utterly enthralling. I loved that Caption . Orwell however wasn't far off on his predictions as we now have CCTV which watches our every move if you think about it

Does anyone other than the Europeans actually have Big Brother? Does everyone know what we're referring to here?

I'd vote off Sam. Because I don't like him.
He's annoying.

And Legolam, if you mean the TV show then no..it's on in the US too.

If you mean an actual Big Brother then I have no idea...

Yes, he was far off: in 1984, Orwell depicts the Ministry of Truth (I think it was that) as an organization which kept track of every citizen's movements, where John Doe went on January 19th, 1982....get it? CCTV is only used for evidence and crime prevention....

Ooh that.
Yeah.
We have those cameras too. :)

Isn't it weird `ow many tv shows use Orwell's 1984 for their titles, there's Big Brother and there's Room 101 too! Cool!

Think we're losing the Americans on this one, am sure they had a programme called "The Real world" or something along the same lines that was the same thing.

I think everyone would vote out Frodo for been miserable all the time, and Gimli would be out fisrt for argueing with Legolas. Pippin would win, he's like Craig from the first series.
"Eerrrrrrrrr, Craig, like!"

And Boromir is Nasty Nick!

They still however watch our movements. You could say that bb watches for any crime prevention as such because they were watchig to see if anyone was doing "Thought" Crime

I just thought i would mention that why not have people like Elrond and Galadriel, they would b like Elizabeth and Dean coz they would neva get voted off but they would b the old boring, sensible ones. Pippin and Merry would get the most laughs in the house obviously.

Wonko The Sane

06-05-2002, 11:00 PM

We DO have Big Brother in America.

And yeah...I'd vote off Boromir.
He's a meanie.

Well maybe boring wasn't the right choice of word for Elrond and Galadriel (didn't mean 2 offend u or ne thang!) but hey, glad u agree with Merry & Pippin!

Wonko The Sane

06-06-2002, 11:00 PM

I think they'd be boring...they're too damn wise to be interesting.

LadyGaladriel

06-08-2002, 07:45 PM

No ! imagine the convsations!

Wonko The Sane

Between Elrond and Galadriel?

They're very wise but honestly, when they wax philosophical they tend to be boring.

Silly gits like Merry and Pippin are much more entertaining than listening to two old farts talk about how powerful they are and the dangers of not acting with honor and such nonsense.

Fool! Lol. I would love to have a 5 min conversation with them. The way they would speak would be so intresting!

There is an American Big Brother ut the house mates ended up trying to stab each other to death.
This years big brother is boring, I think they should put in a few killer spiders to make it more interesting.

Yay! Someone who agrees! Just think of the kinda things that Merry and Pippin would do! They would escape but then climb back in, they would nick all the rations and just think what would hapen if they were both up for eviction! Who would go? ( I think it would be Merry)

Wonko The Sane

06-14-2002, 08:17 PM

But I heart Merry!
Anyway, Pippin's more overtly annoying...he'd probably get the boot first.

Glorfindels Gal

06-14-2002, 08:24 PM

I do not think so! Pippin is so much funnier than Merry, and he's well sweet as well, like Brian from BBII over here in UK! I'm starting the vote to keep Pippin in campaign!

LadyGaladriel

06-14-2002, 08:39 PM

Nope! I refuse to belive that the wisest people ever are boring! We always condemn what we do not understand

Wonko The Sane

06-14-2002, 09:45 PM

I think they're boring...
Wise...yes. Helpful...yes. Useful...yes.

Boring....HELL yes.

Can't help thinking that Pippin would stay in for a while because he's the joker. Elrond would just get bored, sit by himself in the garden and probably climb over the wall like Sandy did this week!

Gary Gamgee

06-15-2002, 11:58 PM

I think Elrond would be the voice of Big Brother...

'Your task this week housemates, is to destroy the one ring in five minutes without using Gimli's axe, as it'll only give Frodo a headache. If you do not suceed in this you'll lose £10 worth of shopping'

Galadreil would be Devina.:p

PIPPIN WOULD BE LIKE JADE DOESNT KNOW MUCH AND IS A BIT THICK

Glorfindels Gal

06-19-2002, 07:37 PM

Yeah, but he wouldn't be quite as annoying, and he wouldn't start massive rows over the most petty things (such as warts) like Jade does. I think he would be more like...I don't actually think he's like any of this years housemates, but then again, I don't really like BB3 anyway, I find it really boring!

I think the big brother main presenter like davina would be tom bombadil and big brothers little brother would be run by frodo

Glorfindels Gal

06-21-2002, 09:06 PM

Hmmm...no, I'm sticking with the fab idea of Elrond as the voice and Galadriel as Davina. And also I am still annoyed with you for making any comparisons between Pippin and Jade. How could you!
