--> '''Thorin's namesake:''' He said that I should reassure you that Mother would have his hide if he ever tried to take Erebor from you. She told Father years ago that if he upset Lady Dís she'd throw him in front of her so that Lady Dís could kill him while she escaped.

* The scene where Saruman fails miserably to make Bofur tell him where the Ring is. It's a CrowningMomentOfAwesome and a CrowningMomentOfFunny all at once.

* Treebeard, some of his Ents, and Celeborn come to Isengard after the Ents cause a flood. Galadriel wonders how Celeborn could be with them, because the water hasn't go done enough for him to walk. Turns out Treebeard's carrying him.

* Bofur tries to cheer Bilbo up.
--> '''Bofur:''' Besides, no one's dead yet. That's more than can be said for [[NoodleIncident the last feast]] we held in Erebor.
--> '''Thorin:''' I do wish you wouldn't phrase it like that, Bofur. People will begin to think Erebor holds duels to the death at our feasts, or something equally ridiculous. Gallin's weak heart and over-indulgence in ale were out of our control.
--> '''Bofur:''' Of course they were, but that doesn't change the fact that he died at the feast.

* Harlon and Anath ask to "borrow" Arwen.
--> Only these two would ask to 'borrow' the future Queen of Gondor, as if she were a spare sword in the armoury.

* Celeborn kills a troll then jumps away to avoid its blood, because "Galadriel did so hate it when he returned from battle with blood clotted in his hair".

* The Mouth of Sauron [[TooDumbToLive calls Glorfindel a "minor Elven lord"]]. The sheer ''stupidity'' of this comment makes it hilarious.
* When Sauron's armies march through the Black Gates, Théoden tells Thranduil and Glorfindel to fall back. Then he has to clarify that he means the Elves, not his own forces.
--> '''Théoden:''' ''[to the Rohirrim]'' No, don't ''you'' fall back. You stay where you are.
* Dwalin, upon seeing how badly-maintained the Orcs' weapons are, wants "to bash heads together and give shouted lectures on proper weapon-care".

* Glorfindel isn't happy about his "no man can kill the Witch-King" prophecy.
--> '''Glorfindel:''' Terribly valuable [the prophecy] was too. [[SarcasmMode I cannot imagine how we ever got along before we received the helpful advice that no man could kill that horror.]]
--> '''Elrond:''' You always have been bitter about that one.
--> '''Glorfindel:''' Where is the useful counsel? What about "[[MythologyGag Glorfindel, tie your hair up]] [[Literature/TheSilmarillion before you go into battle]]"? Of what earthly use is "by the way, you cannot kill that thing"?

* Thranduil's comments on Fíli and Kíli.
--> The two of them together were a natural disaster which had no intention of waiting to happen.

* During the confrontation with the Witch-King, Sigrid notes how grating his laugh is.
--> Valar, if he had sounded like that when he was a King of Men it was a wonder they had not killed him just to silence him.
