ents

Here it is - an Entish "What If" question. Most of you probably know Ent is not fond of "what if's," preferring to deal in "what is." However, IF we were to have have: 9 Ents in one corner of the ring, and 9 ringwraiths in the other, and the two groups decided to go head-to-head in a brawl...

My latest work in F and F examines the remarkable similarities between real trees and Tolkien's Ents. https://fellowdustmag.com/2025/02/26/the-ents-among-us/

This is my first post. I have read these books numerous times but nothing at all entrances me or sweeps away my imagination like Merry and Pippin with the Ents. This was Tolkiens world and character building at it’s absolute finest in my opinion. The philosophies of the ents, their mannerisms...

THE ARRIVAL THE ENTS AND AWAKENING OF THE TREES: (8/6/2022 - This post has now been revised a bit to include clarification between the Ents and the Trees and the Elves' work upon both.) There seems to be no dispute that the Ents are of Yavanna’s origination during the Song of the Ainur before...

So I am reading through TT at the moment and I am trying to get a visualization of the ents. Alan Lee and john howe are my two favorite artists, and they both depict the ents to varying degrees with many branches, leaves, etc coming off the top of the head and back area of their ents. I was just...

I purchased some artwork for a book I am writing but will have no more need of them once the book is published. I will send the original file and all rights to the pictures including rights to make a profit in any way you wish. I only reserve the right to continue to include them in any future...

Question, what indicators do we have, or do we have any, that the ents strength in battle was more than the Huorns?

Hello everyone, I would like to show you my last diorama "The last march of the ents" I would love to get some feedbacks from the LOTR community. I look forward to see what you think about it :)

I was wondering if anyone knew if Christoper Tolkien or Allen Lee made any comments either positive or negative on the dedication of the Ents in the movies? Guess I found my answer, he did the drawings for the ents but not treebeard...

Hello everyone! Over the past few days I tried to recreate the "Two Towers"- soundtrack The last march of the Ents as it is my favourite soundtrack in the entire second movie. Sadly it only gets around 30 seconds time in total. As a fan project I remade this soundtrack from scratch and I'm...

I was just wondering what people thought of Jackson's depiction of the Ents in the movies. Were they constant with the books? did they give a good overall image of ents?

I get that he'd have had a job getting into Mordor and to Mount Doom unseen, but assuming he could, and was given the Ring, could he be strong enough to resist its tricks to throw it into the fire? I don't see him having much use for the thing, other than to perhaps find or bring back the...

This is something I've often wondered about. I know that Tom Bombadil can make Old Man Willow yield, but I wonder if the Willow would yield to a fellow Tree Shepherd or not. It would depend on if Old Man Willow was truly evil or if he just hated those he viewed as "tree haters" and simply...

Talking Trees—Secrets of Plant Communication https://answersingenesis.org/biology...talking-trees/ An amazing read about trees and how they can communicate. Some of the highlights I thought were "Researchers are discovering that trees form communities that “talk” to each other, sharing their...

We cannot assume they were killed because Treebeard specifically said that they were not killed, to his knowledge, only lost. So where did they go? Are they in the Old Forest, in Mirkwood, or in some other part of Middle Earth? Did Tolkien ever say?

In of aule and Yavanna, Ents [not called so of course] are spirit beings that indwell trees to protect the forest from dwarves who will cut them down. However at this period of time are not the only spirit beings valar and Maiar? does this make the spirits of ents...Maiar? At this same time of...

I have seen three! My avatar shows me encountering one several years ago. That is a genuine unretouched photograph! All seemed to be sleeping, and the one pictured has since disappeared. But they are out there. I encourage people to post photos if they come across any! I have more pictures...

Hi there. Please forgive me if I am mistaken in anything I say but this is how I remember it. In the chapter "of aule and yavanna" dwarves are made by aule and then allowed to come to life (only when the elves do) but then also yavanna is allowed the Ents, but she doesn't literally create them...

The Ents seem unstoppable. When they storm Isengard, nothing is able to stop them. The orcs are crushed, the war machines are swept away and Saruman sits impotent in his tower. The only thing that keeps the Ents from ripping Saruman to pieces is the Orthanc-rock that they can't crack. If...

Just for fun, since we don't know, but isn't it odd. Radagast isn't telling Treebeard anything. The eagles aren't telling Treebeard anything. Gandalf could find out from Tommy if either were willing to broach the subject. The ladies didn't likely choose the old forest, cuz the point was that...
