That's kinda cool, but why not name them after cool animals?
I don't understand why Aussie Rules is so popular overseas. So strange to hear that people, other than the Irish play it. The Irish have Gaelic Football which is quite similar, so much that our champion teams versus their champion team each year. Only we lose. Apparently it's because we can't tackle and use the Irish rules.
That's cool, but it's bigger than Tasmania and Victoria. Fun fact: Australia has two territories i.e land which has not been given the right to govern itself like a state. One being the Australia Capital Territory and the other Northern Territory. The ACT is the only land locked mass which is recognised by the federal government.
The coolest animal in Texas is the Armadillo, which would work for soccer I guess?
I don't know either, I had to look up our teams for their names... Yeah we have no team with good animal names.
Cool. Fun Fact: Dr Pepper was invented in Waco in 1885. The Dublin Dr Pepper, 85 miles west of Waco, still uses pure imperial cane sugar in its product.
Yeah. Especially when they roll up into a little ball. Soccer players do that all of the time.
It's been a while since I've read the books. I usually say the books are better, but I love the films so much, I'm not sure right now. The books definitely give more detail, though. Which is a good thing sometimes and a bad thing other times. There is such a thing as too much detail.... But overall they're really good. Although I suggest reading The Hobbit first. It's much shorter and easier to read, it serves as a great introduction to Middle-Earth.
The movies are very, very, VERY enjoyable (perhaps more so than the books at times) and pretty close to perfect adaptations. Closer to perfect than most, that is. There are a few really big changes, but some of them I feel actually improve the story or a character arc. Still, it's a way better adaptation than The Hobbit films or the later Harry Potter films. If you do watch the movies, though, (before or after you read the books) definitely start with the LotR ones, as in this case, they are the better ones. Actually, I haven't seen the last two Hobbit films, but I know they're a much worse adaptation at the very least. And guess what? I'm watching all three of them this weekend! So pretty soon I'll have seen them all.
Actually, I consider the Hobbit Movies to be excellent movies and excellent adaptations. They are at least as accurate as the LOTR films. I believe most people who criticize them have not actually read the books, so they do not understand how many of the "changes" are simply additions from the appendices or elsewhere in LOTR.
I just watched the first one again last night, and I'm watching Desolation tonight. I agree it's very good, and a fairly good adaptation, especially the beginning and the Riddles in the Dark scene. I know most of the Sauron origin stuff is from the LotR appendices, but the biggest change by far is Azog. Having him chase them around everywhere is so annoying because he's supposed to be dead! There were a few pretty big changes in the LotR films, like Frodo and Sam at Osgiliath and Sam being sent down the Secret Stairs at Cirith Ungol, but there aren't any additions that become an important part of the plot as much as Azog did.

That's awesome, I love Dr. Pepper! Another fun fact: Mtn. Dew was first bottled in my hometown!

Armadillos are a little gross though, since they are carriers of leprosy
