lord of the rings

I took this screenshot by accident, but the smoke kinda looks like image of Ringwraits, black riders.

We have topic about Arwen's shoes. So now it's time for a Galadriel. What kind of shoes does she wear in LOTR and Hobbit movies? I guess that some kind of sandals and boots. I found a picture of her boots, probably used in movies.

I take around a month to read it.

That you can watch the beginning of the Fellowship (up to where Frodo talks to Gandalf about taking the ring, and Rivendell about going to Mordor and learning of Sauron), and then skip to the crack of doom in Return of the King and basically understand what panned out - the ring was destroyed...

How old were you when you first read The Lord Of The Rings, and what made you want to read it? I was 11, we had gone on holiday to Ireland and even though the only LOTR stuff I had seen before was the Lego sets, Ireland still made me think of Middle-Earth, and that was that.

If you don't think it the best book post your alternative below.

So Tolkien always intended for his stories to have been written by characters in universe however as far as I know the Hobbit which in universe is named ''There and Back again by Bilbo Baggins'' is the only book who's in universe author we know, hench why there can be two versions of the...

For me its this 0:18 I like this video because, its so funny. I just call it "Two worlds, one eeeeh"

Going through LOTR once more - I keep picking up on Pippin. What he says, what he does, his experiences and interactions with others. Is Pippin in LOTR the most like Bilbo in The Hobbit? He's this naive character, experiencing all kinds of new things, making all kinds of mistakes, asking all...

Though JRR Tolkien hated alegories so he is cool. I guess the only interesting thing is. In Hobbit Dwarves kinda reminds me of Jews somewhat. Yknow, getting to the place, stubborn etc about giving it away, but then they form an alliance against a bigger threat, the goblins. Also mainly the...

I don't know if this is the right forum for this but I'm going to make the post, and the Mods , if need be, can move it. I came across an article by Kevin Aldrich (of whom I know nothing) titled "The Sense of Time in JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings". It was published in the journal Mythlore...

He seems to be the most cynical and having the darkest outlook. For example: At the Council of Elrond, when discussing the threat of Sauron and the fate of the Ring, it would have been great to have him channel Winston Churchill: "We will fight them on the beaches....." Instead, he glumly...

Turns out, it was nearly killed in the cradle... Love him or hate him, but Jackson deserves respect for pulling it off.

It came to meeee...!!! Precious idea... I'm thinking to myself, they don't even have a chance! In today's world, LOTR is so much displayed on television that an average book reader will certainly watch all three parts of LOTR movie already as a child, before even coming to an age where he will...

Sacrilegious as it sounds, it's at least a new way of playing with imagination. The first thing that comes to my mind is that I always wanted to see more of Sauron... Sauron remained a shadow, which is awcourse the best way to make an impact on such a character, but still... Imagine Sauron...

Because Game of Thrones is porn fantasy While Lord of the Rings is a good written story.

Where it turned out that Frodo was Sam all along
