    You scored 10 out of a possible 10
    The King. You not only know the story back to front and can tell Merry and Pippin apart, you have all the miniatures and will be first in line to buy the complete trilogy on DVD.
    Yeah baby! I'm such a nerd.

    Well, I don't have all the miniatures, but I have some.

    I couldn't have answered that quiz a year ago; I might have gotten 3 out of 10.

    The product of a misspent youth. The only one I sort of guessed on was the one about Theodren, but given the other selections getting it right was not too hard.

    Actually I read somewhere that if you cannot tell Merry and Pippin apart you aren't paying attention. The first time I read it as a kid I did miss that, but when I re-read the series a couple of years later, I was much better able to follow them. I actually have a harder time with the Hobbit, which is for all intents and purposes a children's story in style and tone. All those Dwarves are pretty interchangible with a few exceptions (Thorin, Bombur).

    I'm buying the Trilogy on DVD peicemeal so nah! Does having the full trilogy on audio CD make me a geek though?

    5 out of 10. Given that I have only read The Hobbit 15 years ago, it must mean I'm not that bad at guessing the correct answers in a test (especially when two of the answers are usually so goofy it's easy to tell them apart)

    Considering I hadn't heard anything about the Scouring of the Shire potentially being left out. I guess 9/10 aint so bad

    As to that question I went with the Grey Havens scene.
