All I'm saying is they didn't start beating the drums until Gandalf shouted at poor Pippin

At least book gandalf just growled it. A growl to me is a lot quieter than what movie gandalf did

Not to mention Gimli sang a whole song in the great hall.

He did cry “what’s that”, it seems like that would’ve been pretty loud.

And it seems even more Gandalf’s fault in the book since it was just a single stone falling into water. That has to happen all the time in a cave.

Okay but the movie version was much funnier, and I think any good Hobbit would appreciate that.

One rock vs the skull... and the skeleton... and the chain... ... and the bucket.

Just friggin' legendary.

Gandalf growled

And I thought it was Christopher Lee who played in a metal band
