This season in Dwarven fashion: Hoods are OUT; Umbrellas are IN!

[KingODuckingham]

The dwarves were so uncomfortable above ground that they used umbrellas to simulate the crushing weight of thousands of tons of dirt and rock.

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

While watching a fellow dwarf attempt to fly, Fili and Kili realise that having umbrellas does not automatically make you Mary Poppins.

[Zôrzimril]

"What do you mean, these movies will be horrible? Look at these perfectly in-world props!"

[Idesinholde]

Kili just realized that Fili was proudly working for the Umbrella corporation...

[Dwim]

"You haters can't hurt us from under here!"

[Pallador]

Kili wondered where that hot Elf chick had gone, and after he went to the trouble to get this this umbrella so she wouldn’t get her hair wet!

[Burnt Toast]

Kili was beginning to be a bit suspicious of the whole "umbrellas will keep you safe from roving bands of orcs and other disasters" thing, but Fili was just happy his looked like a peppermint.

[Androthelm]

An Unexpected Journey, but long expected weather.

[Isolde Alarion]

Kili tried to get into it as they posed for the cover of Dwarves Illustrated...

[Gwai]

Hahaha, these are all awesome! I think I'm going to go with @Lucifer. Over to you!!

[Burnt Toast]

Thanks, @Gwai!

Here's the next one:

[Boromir88]

Gandalf couldn't believe Bard shot down his moth messenger

Bard: Listen, old man, call me Pirate Legolas of the Caribbean one more time and a lot worse will happen next time.

[KingODuckingham]

The actors stare at the greenscreen being erected behind them, and one of them whispers, "What is this new devilry?"

[Idesinholde]

Bard and Gandalf had expected some funky costumes for Halloween, but they had never expected to see Smaug dressed like a sparkly unicorn!

[Gwai]

Gandalf and Bard both began wondering if they had made a poor career choice

[Dwim]

"I know the dwarves are an odd bunch, but do they really have to moon us like that?"

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

Bard and Gandalf suddenly realised why the eagles needed their own private accommodations.

[Burnt Toast]

Ahhh, this is hard. Okay, I wanna give honorable mention to Boromir88 for extra sassy nerd references, and I know I'm predictable, but I'm choosing mooning dwarves because it made me giggle a lot-- take it away, @Dwimerkins

[Dwim]

Why thank you, my Toasty friend!

Here is a new one:

[Isolde Alarion]

Frodo to himself "So...this is what it feels like to be taller then someone else. "

[Menolly]

"Is that really what my hair looks like in the back?"

[Burnt Toast]

The two watched, in growing horror and confusion, as Merry and Pippin performed their new traveling show: "Two Hobbits Bury Each Other Slowly With Pipe Weed."

[KingODuckingham]

Frodo: Don't talk to me or my son ever again.
Son: Yeah! *grumps*

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

So that is what happens when you try to clone a hobbit …

[Boromir88]

Frodo: "Execute order 66? I think you're on the wrong frequency, sir"

[Gwai]

Frodo accidentally let slip that his brother was actually adopted

[Dwim]

@Menolly, you're the winner this round! That caption definitely matches his expression. You're up!

[Menolly]

I maaaaaay have cribbed that from an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer...but I'll take it! Thanks Dwim.

Here's the next one:

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

Sam and Frodo both watch with great concern the contestants of the first ever Middle Earth bouldering competition.

[KingODuckingham]

It was a risque painting, no doubt about that. Frodo believed he was seeing some new meaning of life in it, somehow, but Sam was just offended.

[Aodh Hammerhelm]

Sam: Rope? Nope, Mr Frodo I packed extra lembas instead...

[Wamba_the_Fool]

Not even entering my own now, @KingODuckingham - very well done!

[Dwim]

"So that's how the fell beasts mate..."

[Zôrzimril]

Sam and Frodo deeply regretted looking up at Gollum as he climbed, for they were granted a peek under his loincloth...

[Burnt Toast]

The lighting technician on site began crying with relief. Finally, an actor had found their light.

@Moriel (so you can appreciate this moment.)

[Boromir88]

Sam: Look, Mr Frodo, the Eagles have come!

Frodo: "No Frodo, the Eagles can't fly you to Mordor, they said."

[Gwai]

The hobbits had mixed feelings. They were hungry after toiling through Mordor for so long...but were they willing to risk Taco Hell?

[Aodh Hammerhelm]

@Tarawen

[Menolly]

@Tarawen wins this one, and please let me never think about what Gollum's loincloth hides again. You're up!

[Zôrzimril]

Whoaa, I think this might be my first-ever Plaza caption contest win! Sorry-not-sorry for making you think about what's underneath the loincloth, @Menolly.

Okay, next up:

[KingODuckingham]

You can see why Denethor favored Boromir: he was the son who maintained proper pose when someone photobombed the Steward Shoot.

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

No one ever talks about the third son of Denethor . . .

[Gwai]

The Boromir Fan Club announced they're getting matching T-shirts

[Burnt Toast]

Faramir: So he's the one who's been lighting our stuff on fire-
Boromir: Shhhh- I told you not to look at him! Just keep smiling and back away slowly.

[Dwim]

While Faramir and Boromir laughed about old times, the Fell Beast swooped down to take its prey.

[Boromir88]

Boromir publicly announced he and Faramir would compete in the Inter-realm "Walk to Mordor, pub crawl" for team Gondor!

[Zôrzimril]

Hahaha these were all amazing. @Dimcairien Luiniel's made me literally lol, so - you're up!

[Dimcairien Luiniel]

This is probably one of the first times that I've won a Caption Contest.
Here's the next crazy pic:
