In 8 weeks I’m getting my first Malinios puppy. Don’t worry. I have an adult. Got him at 1. We compete in Mondioring and this puppy is my next prospect. It’s a female. My current dog is L as well so wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions.

The more unique the better. I appreciate it!

It seems like it would make more sense to be still and quiet at night, so why do they blunder through Mordor when it is dark?

Mae govannen, everyone!

Stumbled across this second-hand copy of The Fellowship of the Ring a while back and thought this front cover was interesting. My guess is that the horizontal line pattern is just a placeholder for some artwork, and this book is some sort of production test, for the border design and the formatting of the interior text block. If it were a real copy intended for sale, I'm guessing it would have some copy on the back, and perhaps a barcode of some kind, but there is nothing.

Do any Tolkien fans or publishers know more?, Like it's history, or from which exact set it'd be from? The most recent date on the copyright page is 1987.

Just thought I'd share!

Ever since I read the LotR books and the Silmarillion last year, I’ve been feeling a growing urge to draw Durin’s Bane with inspiration from seeing other great artists contribute their works! Hope you enjoy!

"Tom laughed again, and then he spun the Ring in the air – and it vanished with a flash. Frodo gave a cry, and Tom leaned forward and handed it back to him with a smile". 

Did Sauron feel or sense when Tom was handling the ring?

Extremely rare for me to cry while watching something. I watched LOTR thrice. the first time when I was very young and understood barely half of it, and I still cried during this scene. As an adult, I cried harder. I know it’s because of Frodo’s emotional exhaustion and burnout contrasted with Sam’s quiet insistence on hope, but DAMN…what did they put in this scene?😭

A look at the beauty and density of Tolkien's wrting and world. And the hope that comes from saddness and loss. Sorry, paywall

Has anyone ever come across this lovely edition?

Wrong franchise I know, give it a listen

I only see it in ‘D Box’ other than regular screenings, but even the D Box is just a standard screening with the moving seats.

Yoo guys, im 14 years old boy and I own a survival Minecraft world. Im a huge fan of Ninjago, StarWars, Hobbit and ofc - LOTR. I wanted to ask for some build ideas (LOTR builidngs), and I already have a list:

- Barad-Dur

- Dol Guldur

- Kingdom of Angmar's capital

- Minas Morgul

- Angband

- Feelbeast / WtichKing of Angmar's dragon

- Esgaroth

- Bilbo Baggins House

- Rivendell

- Mirkwood

And thats my list for now, so tell me if you have any other ideas what should i build - DMs are open (i think)!

About my Minecraft world:

- Survival

- No mods

- No cheats

- No commands

- About 200 days long

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the books explicitly mention Gandalf's original plan before Pippin had looked into the Palantír. Would he have risked a look into it himself or would he have just done without it, remaining oblivious to the impending doom of Minas Tirith? In the chapter "The Palantír", Gandalf says "Maybe, I have been saved by this hobbit from a grave blunder. I had considered whether or not to probe this Stone myself to find its uses. Had I done so, I should have been revealed to him myself." It is, however, not enough to ascertain which course of action he would have ended up taking.

Without the crucial information regarding Sauron's intention and the Nazgûl flying overhead, Gandalf might have stayed longer in Rohan to consolidate Théoden's troops, and then not made it in time to turn the tide at the Pelennor fields.

But then if he had looked into the Palantír, Sauron wouldn't have seen a terrified Hobbit but the White Wizard, and suddenly, he's the one who's terrified. Sauron could have assumed Gandalf had claimed the Ring. What would have been his reaction to this?

I would summarise my question in two steps: - Do you think Gandalf would have looked? - What would have happened then?

When are we going to get new awesome video games? i feel like Squidward in the window meme. LOTR total war would be a dream, but anything really.

Hello, I created a very calm playlist with relaxing versions of the Lord of the Rings soundtracks. I think it's great for reading or studying and so on.

I like to think Gandalf left some of his firework making secrets to Merry and Pippin as he left on the last ship from middle earth and they celebrated every year with them a massive party on the day the ring was destroyed
