They forgot to mention the world was flat in the first age until the destruction of Numenor in the 2nd age when Eru turned it into a globe. Numenor was not near the equator because there was no equator until after Numenor's destruction.

I question the observations that emphasize the tragedy of life which Tolkein was very aware of, as if safety, security and comfort in life are entitled norms. imo, they are NOT. It's the predominant mindset of contemporary entitlement culture which is as odds with reality.
@paulrevere23793 жыл бұрын
If anyone in the current era has any hope to come anywhere close to producing an epic in the same class as Tolkein's works, such a person would have to live a life unplugged from the degrading effects of contemporary online culture.

Can someone please help me understand who read the lotr or hobbit and deeply disliked what it stood for and was against the series ? I just don't get it. You can not like it if get it. But be against what it stood for??? Makes no sense...

J. R. R. Tolkien's son reminds me of a character from lotr. Lol too funny. Wait no he is the grumpy neighbor hobbit of frodo yes! That's is. He also sounds like a character in the movies too. I know it. He has to be.

Well I know plenty of wooden characters in real life. Why people complain about them in books baffles me. It's just realistic in that some people are very simple with very simple goals.

48:40, "as easy to influence as a Bandersnatch" -- CSL. Then we are back to Beowulf, fascists, atom bomb, etc. Actually influences are there to find e.g. Keats, Milton, Bunyan, Robert Browning. Elbereth=Athene, Nazgul=Furies (both from Aeschylus' Eumenidae). It doesn't diminish the work IMHO

Although this isn't one of the most professional productions out there, there are some great insights that enlighten the viewer to some key themes in LOTR (the book, not the movies) as well as their possible origins within the mind of the writer. A Middle-earth fan will find this enjoyable. Thanks for posting this!

Two weeks ago, I discovered that J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth is real! He encoded the fist map of Middle Earth with this cipher- imgur.com/gallery/Qakrqda I was researching initial French and Spanish incursions into the Western Territories, looking for evidence of Amerindian land division, when I found this- imgur.com/gallery/9la21bh A first, I thought Tolkien had stolen the quote from Coronado, and just used the event in his tale. Then I considered how Minas Tirith is indeed a "shinning city on a hill" which is what Ciloba what was described as. What if Coronado was invading Rohan or Gondor? LOL, he was... Helm's Deep is today called "Laguna"- imgur.com/gallery/EpD0Ddn Minas Tirith is "Castle Mountain"- imgur.com/gallery/AbieNCU I've found everything where it should be, just renamed, all but the entry to Moria...I think it's buried. Oh, in a completely different pursuit, I also found the Labyrinth- imgur.com/gallery/c7v1tta -King of the Americas, Lord of the West

I don't know how many times over the years I've gone back and read The Hobbit and the 3 books of the trilogy. I've read the Silmarillion but I lost my copy of it. The story has never grown old and I keep finding myself returning to reread the entire series.
