galadriel

When Galadriel is doing her voice over at the start of FOTR she says that none are alive that saw the great battle between elves and men and the armies of Mordor but wasn't Elrond and Galadriel herself alive at the time and still live now?

In the movie, we see Elrond and Galadriel talking from afar. What exactly are the people who haven't read the books supposed to think? That Elves are telepathic beings? Did they maybe use their "magic" rings?:rolleyes: Did PJ offer any kind of reasoning or arguments to explain this scene? Cheers

Does anybody else just get giddy with delight when Galadriel says to Aragorn (in the FOTR EE): "To rise above the height of all your fathers since the days of Elendil, or to fall into darkness with all that is left of your kin." They just laid this beautiful reverb onto her voice that just...

I have several questions, but try to bear with me here: 1. Galadriel and Celeborn were married right? So what kind of a wife is Galadriel if she just left Celeborn in Middle-Earth? So what if her ring was fading, it doesn't mean she was. 2. Does anyone know exactyl when Celeborn left...

man, the fellowship had just gone thru hell and lost a cherished member and all she could do was give a lecture at their first meeting! Is this another of PJ's inspired change ??:D

One of the most dissapointing parts of the movie, I feel, was the portrayal of Galadriel. Tolkien described her as beautiful, wise, and gentle. The movie really changed her character. She came across as cold and frightening. In the book all the characters left Lothlorien with a deep...

Since my pole about Viggo as Aragorn did so well I couldn't resist doing another one similar to it. I personally loved Cate Blanchett as Galadriel. She had the most captivating eyes and she looked ageless and yet not young. Her voice was rich and calm and she looked fantastic with pointy...

I have a question about Galadriel's mirror. WHAT IS IT?:p Maybe this has been discussed before,but I haven't been able to locate a thread which would touch even the surface of this question. Is there any definite answer to this? Has Tolkien ever said anything concerning the mirror in his...

Galadriel - ?!?!? I have a doubt. Do u people know that part of the book that Frodo and Galadriel meet and then Frodo looks in her mirror? Then he offers the ring to her, but she doesnt get it. THE DOUBT IS: why does Galadriel say "I passed the test". which test is this? :confused: well...

This is just a random thing I noticed, and I don't know where this thread belongs, so here it is. It says in the sil that Galadriel's hair was radiant, as if it had the light of the two trees in it. This could have given Feanor the idea of making the Silmarils. The sil also says that...

Hey - I wrote this poem (i'm so embarassed!) and I was wondering if anyone could translate it into Elven for me? I don't know which language (Quenya, Sindarin) was used in writing the poems of LOTR and the Sil, but whichever one that was, could you please use it? And for those who won't...

I feel rather silly asking this, but I was just never sure. 1. Was Galadriel the last remaining Elf on Middle Earth to have witnessed the Light of the Trees? 2. Was the ban of the Noldor lifted when she passed the "test of the ring" or when Sauron was destroyed? Any thoughts Thanks RD

:confused: It says in the Mirror of Galadriel: I very much doubt that Galadriel would not be dark, for the Rings power corrupts its wearer and/or bearer, as it did to Frodo and Isildur and Smeagol. I also doubt she would have been stronger than the foundations of the earth too. Sauron was a...

On the movie forum, Bunnywhippit posted the following quote: I thought "cannnot be hidden" was an odd statement considering that Frodo had been in the company of both Elrond and Gandalf. Yet there was no indication that Frodo knew about their respective Rings. PRH added: Was Galadriel...

There is no way we can find out the answer to this question. It isn't mentioned but... When Galariel looks into the eyes of the Fellowship and only Aragorn and Legolas can withstand it, what is she tempting them with? She offered Sam a garden plot of his own... Did she offer to let Boromir...

frodo saw a wide grassland, with mountains in the background, and a stormy sky. walking towards him was a figure of a man, whom he thought was gandalf. the man turned and walked out of the sight of the vision, then another vision followed quickly....that of bilbo alone in his room. there were...

i was wondering if anyone can tell me the exact relationships between celeborn galadriel and arwen, im under the illusion that elrond may fit in here. unfortunatly i recently loaned the sil and lotr to either an ungrateful friend or a rather slow reader.

I know,that they've met in the house of Melian and Thingol,and they fell in love and then they have married...etc.... But i want to know more,somebody knows something?Do you think,that elven love last for ever? They never leave each other?They never fall in love with an other woman or man?

I wonder what the great elven lords (Feanor, Fingolfin, Finwe, Finarfin) must have been like? In LoTR you get such a sense of awe and power when Galadriel is mentioned and portrayed. You can't help but be swept away in her beauty and majesty (Which is why I vehemently protest Blanchett as...
