This is a sub-page of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum.

Many of these unused lines of dialogue also have corresponding transcripts in Dialogs.locres.

Note: Some lines simply read "delete." This is how lines intended to be deleted were marked for deletion. However, as you'll see, this deletion was often not carried out.

Intro

Poem#

Speaker		File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Gollum	Unused	D0000_GS_DeagolsPoem_010_G		Time is not spent…	Is placed after "At nothing you can marvel without me". This implies that the used line was originally just "roses has no scent", but was merged with this one.
Gollum	Used	D0000_GS_DeagolsPoem_007_G		Time is not spent, roses has no scent.

Gandalf#

Speaker	Audio	Transcript	Subtitle (Unused)	Notes
Gandalf		Your little mockingbirds would enjoy that, I wager.	I bet your little mocking birds would enjoy that.	While this particular line is used, preceding "an old man with a stick(...)" it is difficult to discern in-game over Gollum's voice, and it is not subtitled. An unused subtitle is present in Dialogs.locres, but it doesn't quite match the actual line.

The Wraith

Day is Near#

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Gollum	D1001_GS_Muttering_010_G		Sss. Day is near.	Would be said at the very start of the level.

Crow's Feather Collectible#

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Gollum	D1004_GS_CrowFeather_010_G		Do we want this, my love?	According to the filename, this seems to have been for a removed second collectible in The Wraith: a crow's feather.

Gandalf Conversation#

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Gandalf	D1001_GS_Muttering_040_GAND		Mordor. Of all places. What did you hope to find there?	This exchange would have played right after Gollum's "must go back hungry again" line.
Gollum	D1001_GS_Muttering_050_G		No hope. No. Not for us. The Elf King said so.

No Foothold#

Would have played as you shuffled along the first ledge over a bottomless pit in the level, right before the Gandalf's "that is where you were hiding?" exchange.

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript
Gollum	D1018_GS_FirstNoFoothold_010_G		Careful, my precious... Musstn’t risk our neck, musst we?

Orc Laughter#

Developer documentation in data.xml gives us the context behind these lines:

On the other side of the crevice the lights of small camp fires shine through the mist. From time to time we can hear orcs shouting and laughing. Their far away voices sound hollow and get carried away by the howling wind.

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Orc 1	D1030_GAND_OrcLaughter_010_OG1		(Laughs)
Orc 6	D1030_GAND_OrcLaughter_010_OG6		He's alive!	Placeholder dialogue is present, but it seems to be the placeholder dialogue for the first line in the conversation with Ufthak and Shagrat.

Ufthak#

Additional dialogue that would have come after Shagrat says "What's the plan, Ufthak? Skip the night shift?"

Speaker	File Name	Transcript
Shagrat	D1270_Shagrat1_130_SHAG	I'm sure the Tower will understand.
Ufthak	D1270_Shagrat1_140_OWEB	Mmmmh!
Shagrat	D1270_Shagrat1_150_SHAG	Delete.

Cave Entrance#

This dialog would have preceded the line "Come! The cave. We're almost there", as he observes the Fellbeast.

Speaker	File Name	Transcript	Notes
Gollum	D1035_GS_Ghosts_010_G	Huh! (Scared breathing)
Gollum	D1035_GS_Ghosts_020_G	(Far away)	Likely to refer to Gollum's position relative to the camera, not an actual line said by him.
Gollum	D1035_GS_Ghosts_022_G	Wraith!	There is no Wraith visible aboard the Fellbeast in the cutscene. It's likely there was, but was removed to increase the impact of the Wraiths' introduction at the end of the level.

Orc Chase#

This dialogue would have been a prelude to the chase between Gollum and the orcs.

Speaker	File Name	Transcript
Gollum	D1300_GS_OrcsNoFriends_010_G	Don't trust the Orcses, precious.
Gollum	D1300_GS_OrcsNoFriends_020_G	There! There's the croakser! (Growls)
Orc	D1310_OrcsChasing_010_OSL1	What—
Gollum	D1310_OrcsChasing_020_G	Wah!

Torture Marks#

Unused response to Gandalf asking, "why are there torture marks on your hands?" This is supposed to be used, but does not play, due to a bug. Strangely, the line does play as intended if you trigger the conversation by going out-of-bounds to the same area.

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript
Gollum	D1442_GS_UpHere_030_G		It's only scars!

The Maggot

The Window#

The Frail Man has a cut line of dialogue at the end of the cutscene where Gollum looks out the window to the gate.

Speaker	File Name	Audio	Transcript	Notes
Frail Man	D21248_CS2110_WindowDay2_010_COLD		I know that look.	The delivery of this line sounds different to that of any other of the Frail Man's dialogue, sounding noticeably more hoarse. This may have been why it was cut.

Dirt-Eater#

Speaker		File Name	Transcript	Notes
Gollum	Unused	D21198_COLD_ToDay2Work_100_G	But what's a dust licker?	Said by Gollum instead of Smeagol. Uses the term "dust licker" instead of "dirt eater."
Gollum	Used	D21198_COLD_ToDay2Work_010_S	What's a dirt eater?
Frail Man	Unused	D21198_COLD_ToDay2Work_110_COLD	That's how they call slaves they find expendable.
Frail Man	Used	D21198_COLD_ToDay2Work_020_COLD	That's what they call slaves they deem useless.
