That is by far one of the best representations I've seen of the Enterprise yet.  I can't find a single flaw.

oh... I'm sorry for you   (it's not that complicated, but yeah, there's a lot of characters  )
Heh, you should read (beware, terrible translation here) "unfinished tales from middle earth"
"runs away and hides to see people's reaction"

Is "Unfinished Tales" the 20-volume series that he spent his entire life researching so that he would have every detail of Middle Earth recorded?
Kind of like JD Salanger(sp), who has several hundred books recording the entire history of his characters hidden in a vault in his house.

no, the "tales ais a set of three books, each containing sveral short stories related to middle earth, and, as the name says, some aren't finished. What you're refering about is rather the non-condensated (?) version of the silmarilion (the silarilion wasn't not written by Jrr, but by is son, from many writings JRR made about his universe. That explains some contradictory facts and so on, btw )

Vizzini: But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You've made your decision then?
Vizzini: Not remotely. Because iocane comes from Australia, as everyone knows, and Australia is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.
Man in Black: Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
Vizzini: WAIT TILL I GET GOING! Where was I?
Man in Black: Australia.
Vizzini: Yes, Australia. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black: You're just stalling now.
Vizzini: You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've beaten my giant, which means you're exceptionally strong, so you could've put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you've also bested my Spaniard, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.
Man in Black:  You're trying to trick me into giving away something. It won't work.
Vizzini: IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY!  KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!
Man in Black:  Then make your choice.
Vizzini: I will, and I choose-- What in the world can that be?
Man in Black: What? Where? I don't see anything.
Vizzini: Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. No matter.
Man in Black: What's so funny?
Vizzini: I'll tell you in a minute. First, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.
Man in Black: You guessed wrong.
Vizzini: You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! Ha ha ha--(Vizzini falls over dead)

 

Count Rugen:Good heavens. Are you still trying to win? You've got an overdeveloped sense of vengeance. It's going to get you into trouble someday.
Inigo: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Count Rugen:Stop saying that!
Inigo: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Count Rugen:No!
Inigo: Offer me money!
Count Rugen:Yes!
Inigo: Power, too. Promise me that!
Count Rugen:All that I have and more! Please!
Inigo: Offer me everything I ask for!
Count Rugen:Anything you want.
Inigo: I want my father back, you son of a ***** . (Inigo kills Count Rugen)
