31 Day Film Challenge - Day 1

I like these 30 or 31 Day Challenges as you know.  Saw this on Twitter. Yes, I'm a day late for October.

Between my work, busy and lots of additional projects and deadlines, and my melancholia at the moment, my brain can't deal with what to post.  I do know most of the world, if not all the world, is little concerned with whether I post or not, but I think about it.

So, here goes, Day 1, a day that will definitely age me.

Day 1: The First Film You Saw in Theaters:

Babes in Toyland

Walt Disney Film

 I'll let you look up the year!

Drove my parents crazy with singing the title song, and then they got the record, the soundtrack, and I insisted on having it always playing every day, every hour of the day!

The Hobbit 30 Day Challenge - Day 1

Who is your Favorite Dwarf?

This is a tough one isn't it!? Who is the bravest, handsomest, most majestic dwarf? 

Thorin Oakenshield

Son of Thrain, Son of Thror

is my favorite dwarf

(Surprise!)

"...in their songs they spoke ever of the Lonely Mountain far away, and the treasure and the bliss of the Great Hall in the light of the Arkenstone...The embers in the heart of Thorin grew hot again, as he brooded on the wrongs of his House and of the vengeance upon the Dragon that was bequeathed to him."  Unfinished Tales, 

J.R.R. Tolkien

Thought I would have some fun while we are all still in DOS mode and take up Peregrint's The Hobbit 30 Day Challenge.

I know this was created for Tumblr so I hope they will forgive me for taking up the challenge here on my blog.
