“he's hot both in “local out of his depth idiot mode” and “over the top romantic hero mode”. he fences like nobody's business. he's the only man of all time to pull off a jester outfit and make it look actually snatched. Danny Kaye needs this, please.”

Additional Propaganda

For Hubert Hawkins:

“He sings! He dances! He fences! He wears really tight leggings!”

“We love a hot, funny, good-hearted man who subverts the gendered tropes of the subgenre! He is absolutely shit at sword-fighting! He is great at doing funny voices! ‘Tenderness and kindness can also make a man,’ says the awesome trousers-wearing heroine who works alongside him in the anti-tyrannical resistance, ‘a very rare man.’ She's right and she should say it and I support them both so much. Hubert Hawkins, world's sweetest and funniest surprise regent (who gets the girl.) See also attached photo of him goofing around with drums on set, I love him so much.”

For Sam Gamgee:

“He is the ideal man. He cooks, he gardens, he's loyal, he'd follow you to the ends of the (Middle) Earth while only mildly complaining. He's so loveable. I love him. He probably gives awesome hugs and never says an unkind word about anyone except for Gollum but Gollum kinda deserved it for calling Sam fat. He is also, reportedly, an awesome dad. I love Samwise Gamgee so much. He's such a teddy bear I love him so much. Frodo should've married him.”

Favorite hobbits 😍😍😍😍

It's time to share another coffee painting from the archives, and this time, it's Samwise Gamgee's turn 🫶

I painted it before I was due to meet Sean Astin at the FACTS convention in Belgium. Last minute, I made another painting as I wasn't entirely happy with the first one, depicting the scene where Sam carries Frodo, because it's such an epic moment. I let him pick from either original, and he decided to keep the second one. He quickly grabbed a cup of coffee to pose with when I snapped a picture 😂

He was an absolute sweetheart, and he signed both prints for me to keep 🙏

I had a few people react to the Sam and Frodo-one, saying it doesn't look like Sam. But that's the tortured and sooty face he has during that particular scene 😅

Painted with instant coffee on heavyweight smooth paper.

AMPTP: It's so sad that WGA and SAG-AFTRA don't want to negotiate. But we must endure! *tortured sigh* 😩

The Hobbits | Fellowship of the Ring + Return of the King

[tenthrees]

Frodo's face was peaceful, the marks of fear and care had left it; but it looked old, old and beautiful, as if the chiselling of the shaping years was now revealed in many fine lines that had before been hidden, though the identity of the face was not changed. Not that Sam Gamgee put it that way to himself. He shook his head, as if finding words useless, and murmured: "I love him. He's like that, and sometimes it shines through, somehow. But I love him, whether or no."
