Sarah Samudre's Tumblr

I'm a writer, filmmaker and producer based in Seattle, WA. I work with my husband, Vasant, and this Tumblr has generally nothing to do with anything I just typed.

THIS Tumblr is about the things I find interesting. Videos, TV shows, quotes, art, random rants... you know. Tumblr stuff. Also, recently, this Tumblr has been a place where i draw things...

This is where you can BUY the things I draw, like Smauglock, Dumbledore's Army and a lot more to come in September...

I also curate the Hugo House Tumblr

I was 12 and it was one of the first times I cursed. I was watching and I suddenly was like WHAT THE HELL HALDIR DOES NOT DIE!!!!! And people were all shush be quiet you annoying child. I was so ANGRY! Haha every time I watch it I still have to turn to whoever is next to me and go "the elves weren't even at bloody helms deep. They were all retiring to the Grey havens by this time. It's only Legolas and the elladen and elrohir. Damn peter jackson."

I was 21. It’d taken a lot for my friend and I to get over the fact that Arwen took Glorfindel’s place at the Ford of Bruinen. I mean, Glorfindel is one of a handful of elves still around from the First Age. He SMOTE a BALROG. And you’re going to sub Liv Tyler for him? UGH. But I also understood that without appendices in film, you need to give Arwen a bigger presence in order to make people understand why Aragorn chooses her in the end. BUT STILL…

So when one film later we get Haldir dying? TOO MUCH. Also, raise your hand if you wanted to see the Dunedain show up at Helm’s Deep and then take their place in the final battles at Pellenor and the Black Gate.

I will admit though, that as angry as I am at Haldir’s death, the fact that the elves do this:

…gets me every time.
