sure, I can give you the Basic sites that teach it.

Also if you can get it. There is Tolkien's book of Languages. It teaches sentence structure, basics and has an elvish Dictionary in it.

It's also good if you want to learn other langages

They sell it for $11 at Amazon.com

Definitely me, I've got both the first 2 films I'm getting the 3rd Pirated and I've got all 3 LOTR Books, The Simarillion, The Hobbit, the Lost Tales and Tales from the Perilous Realm by Tolkien and A Guide/Encyclopedia to Tolkien's World. I'm getting a DVD entitled "Tolkien- The Brain behind Middle Earth" from my Brother on DVD soon too.

Of course there are bigger LOTR Fans than me, but the only ones I know of are Valathous, 1jer and Tremiles, I used to RPG in Middle Earth based Plots that me,Valathous and Cappy developed

For all you Lord of the ring Fans that check this topic... Here you go.

Bloopers:

Quote:
During the scene when Isildur cuts the Ring from
Sauron's hand, it is obvious that he is against a
pretty tall rock wall. But, when we see an
overhead shot of the Dark Lord exploding, there
is no rock wall. Notice how there are soldiers all
around the explosion.

There is a scene where Merry is throwing rocks
into the water in front of the Walls of Moria. The
camera shows him starting to throw a second
rock into the water, and then the shot cuts
faraway to show the rock landing in the water. In
this brief faraway shot, Pippin is sitting. In the
very next shot, however, Pippin is standing,
poised and ready with a rock in his hand.

When Frodo is getting dragged away by the
cave troll, he cries out "Aragorn! Aragorn!" but his
lips don't move.

At Bilbo's birthday party, Frodo encourages Sam
to dance with Rosie. When Sam gets up from the
table, Frodo grabs his shoulders and says, "Oh,
no you don't." However, Frodo's lips barely move
when he says this.

At the gap in the stairs in Moria, Boromir ducks
as he is nearly hit by an arrow, and sheathes his
sword. In the following close up he sheathes it
again as he stands behind Gandalf.

When the Fellowship is crossing over the
mountain, Boromir sort of becomes transfixed by
the ring and drops his shield. When he returns to
his normal state, he picks his shield up from the
snow and lifts it onto his back. When he does
this, you can see the camera crew reflected
briefly in the center of the shield.

In the opening of the party sequence, just after
Frodo pushes Sam into Rosie's arms to dance,
they swing off to the right. In the background
behind them, one of the musicians on the risers
seems to have a very modern plastic bottle of
water in his left hand.

At the end of the extended version, Legolas is
killing Uruk hai with his bow and arrow. He takes
aim at one, and it reacts to the impact of the
arrow before it's hit.

In a scene in the extended edition, Frodo asks
Aragorn who he is singing about. He answers
'Tis the lay (ie. song) of Luthien, the Elf-maiden
who gave her love to Beren', but the sub-titles
say 'the Lady of Luthien', which is incorrect as
Luthien was a person, not a place.

When the members of the Fellowship are
running away from the Balrog, they get caught
on the steep narrow stairs and have to jump
across the gap. When only Frodo and Aragorn
are left on the upper side, there is a long shot
from the top, showing large rocks crashing down
in the foreground and the two of them further
away. Both of them jolt forward, as if with the
impact, before the rock has hit the top of the
staircase.

As Boromir and Aragorn talk right before
Boromir dies, you can see Boromir's right hand
gripping Aragorn's left shoulder in the shot from
behind Aragorn's right shoulder, but when the
camera veiw changes to Boromir's perspective,
looking up at Aragorn, his hand is not there. The
scene goes back and forth between these two
views several times.

In the scene where Sam and Frodo are in the
field with the scarecrow, you can plainly see a
car cruising past in the distance, from right to left.
This holds the dubious distinction of being the
first urban myth (of sorts) spawned by this site -
some people swear blind there's a car there,
others insist there's nothing at all. All I can say is
watch it and make up your own mind. If there is a
car, they'll delete it for the DVD release, so get in
there quickly! Further comment - there are two
different shots which show the car moving from
right to left. One starts at the top right distance,
and in a shot a few seconds later the car has
travelled down the road a bit and is more easily
visible.

Towards the end of the movie, where Frodo is
collecting wood and he has the fight with
Boromir, he puts the ring on his finger, somehow
it went from the chain he had it on to his finger
without any problems. the next time he has the
ring is when he takes it off (no chain) and offers it
to Stryder (no chain) when he is down by the
river, he has it on the chain in his hand...too
much action going on with that chain.

When the Fellowship meets in Rivendell, and
the Dwarf trys to break the ring with his axe, the
axe breaks into many pieces on the platform
upon which the ring is laid. At first, the pieces are
there in the closeup view. When the camera
pans back for a long range view of the
Fellowship, the pieces of the axe on the platform
are gone. In the following closeup, the pieces
magically re-appear.

When Legolas arrives in Rivendell, you see him
dismount his horse and turn to view the area.
Right after he jumps off you see he is just behind
his horse's front leg. After the shot changes, he is
a couple feet forward from his last position.

Most of the time the hobbits are barefoot, but
when Frodo and Sam are first walking through
the fields, Frodo's leg come above long-grass
level and his shoe is clearly visible.

When the Fellowship crosses a mountain ridge,
just before Frodo falls in the snow and loses the
ring, there is an aerial shot - where's Bill, the
pony, in that shot?

At the beginning of the Fellowship's journey,
they are resting on a hilltop (Hollin) with rocky
formations. Bill the pony is tethered in the
background in one shot. Then come the spying
crows from Saruman and they all quickly hide.
When the crows swoop in closer we see no-one,
but who hid the pony and where?

At Bilbo's party, when Merry and Pippin set off
the dragon firework, they are shown inside a
small tent. The tent has dishes and other things
in it, and is quite full. When the firework
launches, taking the tent with it, you can see that
all of the things inside the tent (with the
exception of Merry and Pippin) have
disappeared.

When Arwen enters the water after being
chased by the Ringwraiths, as she turns the
horse, you can clearly see the fake hobbit
(representing an injured Frodo), bounce up and
down like a rubber band.

This mistake is in the extended version of the
movie. When Pippin falls in the Midge Water
Marshes, you can see that is his Hobbit foot is
half way ripped off.

In the scene where the hobbits ask Strider
where he is taking them, he answers "Into the
wild." A split second later as Strider walks past
the camera the bow he carries on his back
bumps into the camera, nudging the screen a bit.

When the Fellowship first sets off they are on top
of a mountain and the bird spies are aproaching,
Boromir says that it can't be a cloud because it's
blowing against the wind, when quite clearly his
hair is blowing in the same direction as the
shape is moving.

When the Nazgul confront Arwen across the
river, they draw their swords in their left hands. In
the next shot this changes to their right.

This mistake is in the extended version. When
the Fellowship travels through Moria, in the
wide-shot before Gandalf starts talking about
mithril, you can see Gandalf kick the electrical
wire that lies in front of him (that provides the
power for the lamp 'crystal' on top of his staff)
further ahead of him, so he won't walk straight
over it.

This is in the extended version only. When the
hobbits are in the bar in Hobbiton, and Merry
and Pippin are on the table singing, Frodo is
skipping around the table singing too, with four
mugs of ale in his hands. However, as he skips
around, you can see that the mugs are in fact
empty, yet he then puts them down in front of
some other hobbits, and they have something in
them.

After the battle with the cave troll, Aragorn
rushes over to injured Frodo and brushes past
some big rocks which wobble, showing that they
are clearly lightweight and not real.

When the hobbits are sitting at the table in the
Prancing Pony in Bree, Merry comes back with a
pint. Pippin leaves to get one too. Then we see
Sam mention to Frodo that a man is looking at
them, across the table sits Pippin and no Merry.

Look closely just after Boromir is shot a third
time with an arrow. The Horn of Gondor has split
neatly down the middle and the two halves are
held together with an inner hinge of duct tape.

When Frodo stops rolling down the snow
covered hill, just before the shot of Boromir
picking up the ring, you can see the edge of the
stockings that the actors wore to protect their feet
since there were walking in real snow for that
scene.

Add me!! I'd consider myself a pretty big fan. I've got all three books, seen all three movies (I have FOTR & TTT on DVD, 4 disc editions), I've got a LOTR RPG starting up at my forum, I've even registered a member called 'Sauron' there to perform the duties of a reaper, hehe. I'm a bit LOTR obsessed lately. *nods*
