Marshmallow Balrog

[grav_ity]

So way back in the LotR heyday, Ain't It Cool News did a contest where you had to build a Balrog out of marshmallows, light it on fire and take a picture. The original post (ie. the first hit when you google "marshmallow balrog") does not have the photos anymore (just the text). Does anyone know where I might find them?

It looks like their CDN is having the issues, but if you image search "marshmallow balrog" you can get some cached images I think ( sorry if DUH unhelpful :) )

I get them on google images, but they're SUPER SMALL and only two of them show up, and I can't get them to be bigger without getting an error message.

I can also get the actual post on AICN, but there are no pictures in it, just the textg.

OMG marshmallow Balrog! I am wrought with paroxysms of glee! Do share if you find it!

That. Sounds. AWESOME.

IT REALLY WAS.

And apparently if you are American, you can STILL SEE THE PICTURES. But I cannot, and this MAKES ME VERY SAD.

Hmm. I'm American, and I can't see them, either.

That makes me feel a bit better. AND ALSO SAD. I WANT MY FLAMING MARSHMALLOW BALROG PICTURES BACK!

It's a small, cold consolation for not having FLAMING MARSHMALLOW BALROG pictures.
