I thought this might interest some people here as well: I and some others have started an Parf Edhellen thread to collect all the bits and pieces of Elvish (that being both translation into one of the Elvish languages, such as Sindarin or Quenya and transcriptions into one of the Elvish writing...

Hi all, was just wondering if anyone has attempted a proper breakdown of the trailer and what each cut-scene reveals? One that interested me was Galadriel (and others if you look behind her) climbing the Ice Wall, which must be a reference to the Flight of the Noldor and the crossing of...

I've been around the webs and reading why people already hate this new Rings of Power series. all I can say is the haters are really out in force with these latest new reveals. One thing I noted in the various places the posters and first look articles were posted on fecebook (IMDB has some of...

Prime Video’s Most Anticipated New Series of 2022 Reveals Its Title THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RINGS OF POWER CULVER CITY, California –January 19, 2022– Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power officially has a name and it hints at what’s to come. The television series’...

I don't usually care for "What If" questions. To me, the book is good enough for me, warts and all. In my view, any warts that might exist are excusable considering The Lord of the Rings was not a book that Tolkien ever set out to write of his own volition, but rather to fill a demand. But...

Did Gandalf think that there was a bond between the rings of power and the smoking of the pipe-weed habit of Halflings? Thanks an advance :)

As far as I can see, there is not a full account of the textual history of "Of the Rings of Power". There are references here and there. In "The Treason of Isengard" early drafts of Elrond's speech in the Council of Elrond approach the text of much of this work. But in "The Peoples of...

When posting in the thread "a new power in Dol Guldur" in the Lord of the Rings section of the forum, the discussion changed to the Rings of Power and how their powers were used. Somehow this question rised in my mind, because I keep confusing the Ring of Air, Vilya, as the Ring of Earth...

Is there any mention of the names of the dwarves that got rings of power from Sauron? also were they all longbeards who got the rings or were they from different clans also?

I was just wondering what kind of special powers or abilities Narya, Nenya and Vilya gave to Galadriel Elrond and Gandalf. Also, how many rings of power were first made?

What confuses me about lotr is the rings of power, 7 for the dwarves, 3 for the elves and 9 for the men, ok, they gave the power for the kings to control their land/empire/realm but when Sauron created the one ring, what happened? did the kings and lords who where given the rings turn evil and...

i dont understand why the rings of power made in the first place if not made before, that would save all the trouble to rule over others, why were they made for, and if so were they meant to dominate as was the one ring? why on earth would rings be made to dominate their race as it would appear...

I know I should know this, but I can't seem to dig it up out of my memory. Did Celebrimbor forge the 9 Rings and the 7 Rings? I know that he forged the 3 for the elves, but did he make the others as well, or did Sauron make them?

My friend said that she heard (on this forum before I became a member) that Gandalf had the third elven ring, but how can he? Maybe I'm missing something, but I just don't get it. A.He is not an elf:"Three Rings for the Elven Kings" B. If he had it wouldn't her be destroyed like Galadriel...
