silmarillion

Curiously, Fingon is already called 'the valiant' even before he has left Aman. No mention is made of what adventures he might have had, but I imagine him as a bit of a daredevil explorer (rather than an 'ordinary' explorer like Fëanor and his family). So here is a gif image I made of a young...

I love Glorfindel; he's one of my favorite elves. And don't get me going on PJ's decision to replace him with Arwen☹️. I don't think Tolkien ever decided either way, but I like to think that the Glorfindel who rode to Frodo's rescue was the same Elf who single-handedly rescued the refugees of...

This Logic Puzzle is so fun! My computer was lagging, and I finished with 28 seconds to spare on my first go! 😅 Give it a shot, and see how you do. Enjoy! https://www.sporcle.com/games/FactorialRabbits/silmarillion-elves-logic-puzzle-copy

I took this Select Smart quiz to find out who I am among characters from The Silmarillion. Here is the link: https://selectsmart.com/FREE/select.php?client=silmcharacter I got Fingon for #1 and myself at #3. @Fingon_Findekano Can you believe it? 😂

Seeing artwork of the Silmarillion was actually what made me interested in reading it. And despite the book having a relatively small fandom relative to, say, LotR, there are thousands of artworks of it out there. I continue to see more Silm art every single day on Pinterest; there's no shortage...

Let's say there is a movie/series for Silmarillion and you're to choose who should the actors/actresses be. Who are you going to choose for each character?

If Tolkien state decided to sell the rights for Silmarillion and the first age events,do you like to watch an anime adaptation of it? Personally,I do.silmarillion lore is so grand that I can't imagine anyone can confine all of it in a movie, trilogy or not. Which means it should be adapted in a...

I found these on a website,I think they're not accurate because the whole Teleri people are getting one?! Based on what I don't know, anyways what are your thoughts?! I'm not an expert on either the characters personalities nor MBTI types except what I know of my own,but it seems like an...

Sung in the 1st Person POV of Fingon. Enjoy! Speed now this feathered shaft, O Manwe above on high, May he not feel any pain, But may he swiftly die. Dark have been his days, O Valar, set him free. Allow me to release him, From this living misery. Steal the fire of life within, Quell the...

Alas, my old friend, the time has come. Upon my oath, I did not abuse you! It’s not my fault I read you so many times your cover fell off. It’s not my fault I packed you on trips and your edges got a bit dented during our travels together. I honestly don’t remember how the page containing the...

Does ANYONE know who the composer/performer of the incidental music heard at the beginning of the 1998 Silarillion audio book narrated by Martin Shaw is? I tried the Shazam app, and no dice. This info is seemingly impossible for me to find. Thank you.

Will peter jackson or any other filmmaker show the andreth prophecy when the movies of the silmarillion are made after the rings of power are over? So they will make Turin fight in the war of wrath in the movie? and they will show the ancalagon that he has given his final death blow?

Searching through some old boxes I came across a copy of the Silmarillion - Hard cover with jacket, "1977 First Amercian Edition" is that worth anything?

In many popular resources, like wikipedia, says that Cristopher, while he was editing and compiled "Silmarillion", he cannot do it perfect because he didnt have access to some original drafts, materials, manuscripts, to full body of text of his Father. But, why? To me thats sound very strange...

Near the end of the first page of Chapter 14, "Of Beleriand and Its Realms": 'Before the gates of Angband filth and desolation spread southward for many miles over the wide plain of Ard-galen; but after the coming of the Sun rich grass arose there, and while Angband was besieged and its gates...

I've just started reading The Silmarillion..after putting it off for 30 years. First attempt didn't go well but I'm really loving it now. I have a query that is playing around way too much in my head. In chapter 9 there is the following quote "yet none were willing to abide upon the western...

A friend recently read The Silmarillion and we had a short conversation over text, they said they thought the premise was basic-follow the Valar and you’ll be fine (basically. It wasn’t just that, we went on to discussing the world-building and wonderful backstories). But…thoughts? (Either on...

Chapter 22, "Of the Ruin of Doriath" does state that the Lord of Nogrod "laid his curse upon all the treasure" before he died, and so Beren threw all of it into the River Ascar save for the Nauglamir. A few things to wonder or theorize about: What exactly was the curse, and what did it...

It is obvious that after the rings of power series is over, the silmarillion will be made into a movie series. Do you think the book of the silmarillion will fit into 7 movies? I think it will fit if it is like this; first movie: the creation of the ainur, the music of the eru, and the descent...

According to Andreth's prophecy, Turin is kept in the halls of Mandos for 50 years. Then he fights in the battle of wrath and kills the Ancalagon. Do you think they will include this scenario in the battle of wrath in the movie The Silmarillion? In the link below it is written that since Tolkien...
