The One Last Party

So, what am I currently missing out on today?

Oh, nothing, it’s only the undoubtedly incredible One Last Party.

What’s that you ask?

Basically, The One Last Party is a party (duh) held on February 21 (today for most, yesterday for me) in Hollywood and it’s a celebration of all six of Peter Jackson’s Middle Earth films.

This is practically every Tolkien fan’s dream party. It’s obviously Middle Earth themed and the attire is formal but guests can come in cosplay (that’s right, elf ears, long wigs, dwarven clothes and many others are welcome!). You can probably come as Gollum for all they care!

It’s hosted by TheOneRing.net and apparently, they have been hosting parties like this since 2001.

Happy Valentines to everyone on this Middle Earth!

I hope you’re at least having a better Valentine’s Day than this Orc!

Seb Lester’s Lord of the Rings

A friend from high school shared a video on Facebook which shows Seb Lester “doodling” the Star Wars logo / title. It wasn’t much of a doodle, I think— it was more of amazing lettering using the Star Wars font.

Since I was always fascinated with lettering and calligraphy, I watched the video. Below in the caption, the artist mentioned that he had also done Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Game of Thrones. Naturally, I became more interested in the LOTR one. Duh.

It’s quick and has no music, but it’s just amazing how easy he makes it look. Enjoy!
