More of the Fellowship of the Ring Cast Commentary
Sean - Oh I remember this day. This was fun. Dom - Yeah, that looks really cool. Elijah - That was when we didn't have anything to shoot up on the mountain. Is the north... Sean - Northern Mount Owen. Elijah - All those days of playing 'Cup'. Dom - Oh yeah. 'Cup' was fantastic. Billy - 'Cup', by the way, is when you take a paper cup -- Elijah - Dixie cup Billy - a dixie cup, if you're American and... Dom - Or a paper cup if you speak english. Billy - And you keep it up, just by passing it to each other. which sounds quite boring, but if you're waiting for a helicopter for four days it becomes the main way that you pass the day. Elijah - Hours. Dom - I would just like to say that it's an original Dominic Monaghan game available online at my website. And you can use different cups, but if you want, you can log onto my website and get an official 'Cup' cup. Thank you. Billy - Dominic Monaghan's crazy games dot com. Dom - Another game called 'nudge' which Billy is a huge fan of. So if anyone wants me to, you know, get involved in game-making, I'm available. Elijah - Speaking of games, what was the name of that fake game that you all tried to get me into? Billy, Dom, Sean - *laughing* Dom - Tig, teg, tag, tig? Sean - 'Tig'. That was good. Elijah - Oh my god. Billy - And in 'Tig', that was when we were filming Weathertop and myself and dom just started tagging each other, you know, touching each other going "tig, tig, tig". Just like, for no reason. And then Sean came over... Elijah - Slightly different from 'tag'. Billy - ...and he came over and started doing it as well. "Tig." And then we'd say "tig-tig"... Dom - Tig tag. Billy - ...like for no reason. Dom - Tog tig. Billy - And then Elijah came over and said, what are you guys doing. Said, "oh we're playing a game called 'tig'." He says, "How do you play?" And then we spent like the next two hours, making up rules. Elijah - And trying to teach me, and of course, I was getting everything wrong because they were making it up as they went along. Sean - He couldn't follow the game and the three of us were forever frustrated that he wasn't following these new rules that we would continually make up. Dom - So like the three of us were constantly getting it right. And every time Elijah tried a new way of tigging someone, we'd say, "No Elijah, you can tig on a tog. You can't tag on a tig. You have to... you have to do an elephant impression of you're going to tig Billy. If Billy is going to tig you back, you have to get on your knees and take your trousers down." Billy - "How many times, Elijah? You can't double tig a tag." Dom - And for like three weeks, he was saying how much he enjoyed playing tig and that he'd... Sean - he wanted to get the rule book, remember? Billy - But do you remember, we forgot to say it was a wind-up. And it was like a year later, he says why we don't play tig. Elijah - And then they finally let the cat out of the bag. My whole world came shattering down on me when they told me that that was a lie. Cos I... for a whole year, I believed that that was a real game. And then they told me and that... Sean - Awww... Billy - Sorry, Elijah. Dom - Sorry, Elijah. Elijah - What else was not true? That was what I was asking. Sean - It undermines the integrity of the entire relationship. I agree. Dom - It was part of the whole bonding experience, though. Billy - Although me and Dom are actually just lies. Dom - A big bag of lies Sean - Not that big a bag. |
