Second-guessing and Misunderstanding Tolkien

[Radaghast]

Did the Balrog of Moria belong to the top 10 most powerful entities in Middle Earth during the War of the Ring?

Yes, he felt a great sense of belonging for being so ranked 😖

 

[Radaghast]

Why were the Balrgos loyal to Morgoth but not Sauron?

Because Morgoth could spell.

 

[Radaghast]

Was there ever a plan or discussion among the powerful elves and wizards to deal with the Balrog in Moria, or was it just never considered a priority?

This lackwit question brought to you by Quora Creator Tools. I just realized 'tools' suggests someone is actually using AI to generate dumb questions.

 

[Radaghast]

Exactly when did Sauron embrace the cause of Melkor?

Exactly when you bid farewell to your last brain cell.

Why are some books with slow pacing and unnecessary plot points, like The Lord of the Rings, still considered classics?

Why is it called Artificial Intelligence?

"Why are some books with slow pacing and unnecessary plot points, like The Lord of the Rings, still considered classics?"

They are still considered classics by those whose reading level is well above the 4th grade which, quite obviously, yours is not.

 

[Radaghast]

What's the difference between intelligent animals in Middle-earth and those in Narnia, where all animals can talk?

Well, the one thing they have in common is that they're smarter than you (Disclaimer: AI question).

 

[Radaghast]

Is the White Tree of Rohan from the Lord of the Rings based on a real tree that is living or lived in the past?

This question wasn't asked by Quora Creator Tools. I'm floored.

 

[Radaghast]

Would the fellowship have been better off if Sam, Merry, and Pippin never joined?

 

[Deimos]

Yes, because then Tolkien could have written the first book as The Non-Fellowship of the Ring.

Does the Tengwar represent the Dark Side of Fëanor’s nature, a script specifically designed to put dyslexic people through hell?

Yeah, Tolkien really had it in for those dyslexic people🙄

 

[Deimos]

Does the Tengwar represent the Dark Side of Fëanor’s nature, a script specifically designed to put dyslexic people through hell?

Well, actually, as Tolkien was a Catholic, his intention in designing Tengwar script was to put dyslexic people through Purgatory. 😬🙄

 

[Radaghast]

Why was Ghan Buri Ghan and Wood Woses left out of the movie? I loved the Tolkien version of the Ewoks.

 

[Radaghast]

Why didn't Gandalf immediately realize the simplicity of the riddle on the Moria door in LOTR?

Yeah, Gandalf! Why you so stupid? 🙄😵‍💫😵

 

[Radaghast]

Was Sauron aware that Eru destroyed Numenor? Who told him?

TikTok 😵‍💫

 

[Vorondil]

Was Sauron aware that Eru destroyed Numenor? Who told him?

Given the fact that Sauron's mortal form drowned in the downfall of Numenor, I think he may have noticed it being destroyed.

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

He thought he got Ar-Pharazon good, didn't he?

 

[Radaghast]

Why do the hobbits start their journey so unprepared, and what does their gradual acquisition of magical items suggest about their development as characters?

Please shut your stupid, artificially "intelligent" face.

 

[Glorfindel Goldtress]

Given the fact that Sauron's mortal form drowned in the downfall of Numenor, I think he may have noticed it being destroyed.

I WAS LITERALLY COMING TO COMMENT THE VERY SAME FACT! You just got here 8 hours earlier.

"Yes, I suppose the tsunami wave washing over Sauron, thereby causing him to absolutely lose his physical raiment at the Fall of Númenor... was a solid way to send the message." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

 

[Radaghast]

What you call the type of fantasy in lotr and the Hobbit? Given tolkien has been regarded as the pioneer for this kind of fantasy with elves, dwarf, etc as it's own people and no longer spiritual creature like in the myth?

Those are certainly words.
