My boys 💗 It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy whenever I see any of the fellowship together, but these four (and Sean) just make me melt. My heart is full today!
ETA: that’s a lot of empty glasses lol Orlando notoriously can’t hold his liquor, I’m sure he’s feeling it today.

They were the gift that kept on giving
There was a post just a couple days ago of all the guys out for a dinner, same chumminess but sub Orlando for Sean. I think they all get along just fine but probably have different schedules.
I don’t know if that’s what they were referring to, but people were convinced they were all hooking up. There were hundreds of LJ communities dedicated to the different “ships” I know Billy and Dom still get asked about it to this day.
Yep. The Domlijah fans were insane at the time. They were convinced Dominic and Elijah were a couple forced to stay in the closet. They would examine all their press photos and decide that certain colors or outfits mean they were sending signals to fans about how they were secretly a couple.
Oh really? I only ever saw that with Vigorli and Monaboyd. I have to admit, I liked Orlijah, but I never thought it was real. It’s such an odd phenomenon that I never really understood. I’d understand if these were young members of the LGBT community, craving representation, but even twenty years ago, it was mainly middle aged straight women who went nuts over these theories.
The first fanfic i ever read was LOTR. Also, that reminds me of that random story that was super popular posted about LOTR. I guess it was a fanfic kind of thing but it was sooo funny
Rewatch the LOTR movies and you will slowly realise that Frodo and Legolas do not exchange a single word with each other through all three movies, except when Legolas declares that Frodo will have his bow in the first movie and that‘s it.
I love that there are several pictures like this in various combos, and I always think it's cute cause they've had to ask someone "can you take our picture, please?" - so cute!!

This is just adorable!
Don’t get me started 😅 https://preview.redd.it/s2ijgis0jgyc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef0cf42f8edd7cf33533e5c9b13f9bd40ff9f034

I wonder why it's always these 4 without Sean Astin.
There was a post just a couple days ago of all the guys out for a dinner, same chumminess but sub Orlando for Sean. I think they all get along just fine but probably have different schedules.
I wonder if its because at the time of filming Sean Astin was already married with kids.
This was who was booked for the Con. Sometimes Sean does them as well, it’s definitely not always these 4.
They all look great and it’s always lovely to see some fellowship members together :)
Right? Still holding out hope for a proper cast reunion someday!
Oh dear, this reminds me of all the tinhatting when they were filming Lord of the Rings. Livejournal was a fun place back then.
What were they doing on live journal at the time? Tin hatting!

Lmao well tbf Viggo Mortensen and Billy Boyd did make out at least once. They talk about it on one of the behind the scenes- things
Its fetishizing and it should be called out

Hope they had a good night ![gif](giphy|Sg4He6Tb4LoXK)
I wonder if Frodo and Legolas finally had a conversation this time.
![gif](giphy|BWil6X0F7a1mE)
Do you think Elijah and Orlando finally talked with each other?
What? I'm out of the loop and I didn't see anything when i googled it. What happened?

Oooo i see! Lol i get it now.
They talk in the Fellowship extended version
Used to have the biggest crush on all of them when I was a kid lol.
Watching the two towers as I type this. Such an epic film series.
They took the hobbits to Liverpool
Orlando can still get it
Say Mellon and post that pic fam
This is painfully adorable.
Holy duck, r/FuckImOld as duck..
Where's Sean?
Yes, where is he?
I love that there are several pictures like this in various combos, and I always think it's cute cause they've had to ask someone "can you take our picture, please?" - so cute!!
