The Clash of Poetry and Lord of the Rings

So...yes, it does sound interesting, doesn't it?
This week I wrote my pantoun, which I thought was somehow supposed to be an "obsession" of mine. So, being the overachiever that I am, I took it one step further: three obsessions (Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Harry Potter). Now, they can all be easily related, because that's what Wikipedia is for. So this is what I came up with- and this is the short version: The guy who plays Saruman in LOTR (Christopher Lee) also plays Count Dooku in Star Wars. And the guy who did the music for Star Wars, John Williams, also composed the music for the first Harry Potter movie, setting the stage with the internationally famous Hedwig's Theme. (Click here to listen to Harry Potter if you've been deaf for the last ten years) John Williams also did the equally famous Star Wars theme, as mentioned above, which makes him an overall famous guy. (Click here to listen to Star Wars if you haven't been well educated in late-70s early-80s really-late-90s or early-00s American culture as a child)

And then we come to Lord of the Rings, which has started to pick up once again (what is this, the fiftieth time or something?) So Faramir has come and gone-- well, technically, Frodo has come and gone. And Faramir is, as Wikipedia said, more like the opposite of his brother than the twin of his brother when it comes to the ring-- Faramir is the nerd, Boromir is the jock. And Gondor likes jocks more than nerds right now. So that explains well why Boromir was the prized son to Denathor.

The quote for this week comes with some help from a friend of mine. The quote comes from her favourite movie, Titanic.
Male Passenger: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...
Jack: You want to walk a little faster through that valley there?
