The funniest way to view the war of the ring is as one big fight for control of the pipeweed trade between the hobbits and Saruman. It works surprisingly well. Just think about it, Saruman started muscling in on their business pretty early on in the story and the Hobbits weren't in a great position to secure it. Add to that the threat of Sauron cutting them out of the game altogether and things get even more dire, so they send 4 guys to go merc Sauron and take down Saruman and along the way they just *happen* to restore the Gondorian monarchy and install a guy who basically makes the share a self governing tax haven that no one can enter without the hobbits say so? ensuring their monopoly on pipeweed? and the last battle is one final throwdown between Saruman and the Hobbits where Saruman is kicked out of the game once and for all along with his whole gang? Don't fuck with the Hobbit cartel bro.

I blame the elves. The elves invented magic rings. Sauron made a bootleg version of a power ring and refused to pay the necessary royalties. Once Sauron and his ring were destroyed, the elves buggered off into outer space (their technology was thousands of years ahead of the humans). That's why Vulcans have pointed ears.

I’m by no means a Tolkien expert, but I could swear that after Theoden’s funeral in Rohan’s capital (the name escapes me at the moment) they went on to Isengard to check on Treebeard and Saruman. After finding that the latter had been let go by the former, the Fellowship went their separate ways : Gandalf, Frodo, and the rest of the hobbits went to Rivendell before they went on to the Shire; Aragorn and his retinue meanwhile went BACK to Gondor; and lastly, Legolas and Gimli went into Fangorn Forest before making their way back to their respective homes of Mirkwood and Erebor. Elrond and his sons went with Gandalf and the hobbits; Galadriel and Celeborn travelled with them for a short time (during which they passed by a ragged pair of travelers consisting of the de-powered Saruman and Grima Wormtongue) before also taking their leave and making their back to Lothlorien via that pass over the Misty Mountains (again, the name escapes me; but this was also where the Fellowship was forced to turn back (due to Saruman’s implied magical doings)). Would appreciate actual Tolkien experts to chime in if I’m correct or merely deeply mistaken.

A few notes - Arnor only had 10 Kings, Later Arnor would be split into Arthedain, Rhudaur & Cardolan. Arthedain would have 15 Kings whereas not much is known about other two kingdoms. Hence Technically Aragorn was 11th king of Arnor & 16th King of Arthedain. Aragorn was also 34th King of Gondor not 35th. Earnur was 33rd king before Aragorn when he was lost in Minas Morgul and his fate is unknown in TA 2050.

@Byzantine Historian That is why I added the term technically, By 14th century of third age Rhudaur was occupied by Angmar and by 16th century of third age Cardolan was abandoned, so only Arthedain survived for few more centuries. Part of Arthedain was again given to hobbits due to dwindling population so to say Arnor = Arthedain will probably reduce the Glory and Stature of Arnor itself.

@Byzantine Historian And the Kings of after Eärendur took the title of King of Arrhedain, they tried to take the title of King of Arnor but it was not accepted by subjects of other kingdoms. It is also important to note that the title of High King was not taken by Kings of Arthedain.

If LOTR went full on series with time to breathe and hour-length episodes, I can see how the Scouring of the Shire can be a good bookend to the hobbits' journey and evoking Tolkien's themes as was done in the book. For the Jackson Trilogy though? Yeah I think it was a good move to cut it out or rearrange some things. It may mean that many not even know of the Scouring of the Shire but that's hardly the fault of Jackson; the consumers or fans should do the research themselves.

You mention "space operar". As a 76 year old, I remember when "space opera" was a term of derision. That has changed over the last 23 years. There are two websites that I can recommend. I can give you names, but not links, since YT deletes entries with them. The first is Solarguard Academy". This was for fans of the 4 TV shows of the 1950's "Space Shows", in order CAPTAIN VIDEO, SPACE PATROL, TOM CORBETT; SPACE CADET and ROCKY jONES; SPACE RANGER. These shows ran from 1949 to 1955, Two of them on the early Dumont Networkd. The persons to contact are "Cadet Ed Pippin [whom I dubbed 'the only Hobbit with a flying saucer license]", Drl Warren Chaney and Jean-Noel Bassior, author of the Space Patrol books SPACE PATROL Daring Missions in Early Television.. The other site is "Uncle Earl's Classic Television", where you can find surviving episodes of these shows. SPACE PATROL being the most numerous and with which I am most identiied, bieng accepted into the Patrol in 1999 by Ed Kemmer (Bazzu Corry: Commander in Chief). I do not know the status of the crew of the Solarguard ship Polaris II, which consisted of Ed Pippin, Jan Merlin (the actor), Cadet Chick Lassen and Cadet Jack McKirgan. One of the Great accomplishments of SP fans was Dr. Olendor's co-creation of the CAT scan. I was very much affected by the death of Lyn Osbourne (Cadet Happy) Other "space opera" universes are the British SPACE PATROL (called PLANET PATROL in th US), FIREBALL XL5, THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO and CAPTAIN SCARLETT AND THE MYSTERONS, joining the much earlier DAN DARE

During the reign of Eldarion, King of Gondor, the events of the War of the Ring are now little more than seldom-heeded tales to the people of Gondor, lingering only as a shadow upon the early childhood of those who lived to see it. One such man was Borlas of Pen-arduin, the younger son of Beregond. In his garden by the Anduin in sight of Minas Tirith, he is in conversation with a young man named Saelon. Borlas speaks of the constant presence of evil in the hearts of Men, a Dark Tree that cannot be felled forever, while Saelon is doubtful. Saelon recalls the time when Borlas scolded him in his youth for wasting unripe fruit from his garden, calling it "Orcs' work", much to Saelon's disdain at the time. Borlas replies that misuse of unripe fruit robs the world and hinders a good thing of fulfillment. Saelon brings up Men's habit of felling trees for their own use, to which Borlas says that if the wood is used for decent purposes and not wasted then no wrong is done. Borlas grows tired of the conversation, but Saelon wishes to continue their discussion of the nature of growing evil. Saelon claims that it couldn't have been memories of Saelon's childhood mischief that began their discussion of the Dark Tree, saying that he must have heard of Herumor. Saelon goes on to say that a growing number of people are not content in the days after the death of the Great King. Borlas asks what the growing unrest plans to accomplish, to which Saelon asks how Borlas came to know the name of Herumor in the first place. After some disagreement on who should answer first, Saelon offers to tell Borlas all that he wishes to know if he joins him after nightfall clad in black. With this offer, Saelon takes his leave of Borlas's garden. Left alone, Borlas thinks of his son Berelach, a friend of Saelon, and of news from the Ethir Anduin of ships disappearing. He returns into his home, smelling as it would seem the scent of old Evil returning to the world.

Interestingly, among Tolkien’s extensive notes, there are some very preliminary ideas for a sequel to LotR set during the reign of Aragorn’s son involving the rise of a dark cult and focusing on the metaphor that, just like the white tree of Gondor, the tree of evil will always grow back. Ultimately Tolkien abandoned it believing he wouldn’t be able to make it one of the stories with universal themes he was committed to writing.

I guess many men in the east and south would have remembered their fallen comrads, and especially the people in the South may never really accepted the new expansion of Gondor. As it said, what Morgoth (and Sauron) had created (and the folly of the free people, too) would live on forever. So I think there may be hidden cults and ongoing hatred among those who served Sauron even in later generations. The last being who may remember the days of old even at that time may also be Shelob, since it was never sure if she died or survived. As daughter of Ungoliant she may be the oldest living being aside from Bombadil, even older than the oldest Ent.

Colonisation isn't always bad, before the SPQR French were basically barbarians and savages nowadays they're one of the few Western power that isn't fully evil.

You should do a serie on the chronology of Narnia it would be interesting

@morgant.dulaman8733 Жыл бұрын

It's interesting to compare the two. Both have a wider history to connect their individual stories. Yet Tolkien's legendarium reads like an epic myth, and like the myths of ancient civilizations, it eventually leads into our own history. Narnia, on the other hand, reads like a series of fairy tales, and like fairy tales from our that have been passed down organically, it's structure allows it to remain connected yet separate from our own, a parallel reality that could be just behind the next turn in the woods. Different, yet each has their place.

A few errors (I think) 1) if memory serves, Heathertoes dis not kead the fight against the ruffians in Bree , he was simply a named casualty 2) again if memory serves, the non-elven folk who made it to Valinor did not live with their friends until the final days of the world. Going to Valinor does not grant immortality (as the black numenorians thought). So Bilbo, Frodo, Sam, and Gimli must have eventually died of old age.

You made a mistake with the exodus of the NOLDOR. Its only the Three band of elves who once dwelt in Valar that completely leave Middle Earth, the Low Elves still remain in Middle Earth in Mirkwood, East Lorian and Itilian, as does Thranduil, who never lived in Valar. Also Bilbo, Frodo, Sam, and Gimli still retain a normal lifespan, and die in the Havens.
