I love how the comicbook store guy is the only one who listens intently and suggests a good solution.

[@TheGreatDearLeaderJimPickens]

Barad-dûr was indeed built with foundations forged by the power of the One Ring. However, what must be understood is that Sauron had already been in Mordor for 600 years prior to the forging of the One, moving to there in SA 1000 and forging the One in SA 1600. It can therefore be assume that the first Barad-dûr, which means "Dark Tower", was a separate fortress to the one destroyed by the Last Alliance in the Battle of Dargorlad. This can be surmised by what it says about the Mouth of Sauron in Return of the King: "But it is told that he was a renegade, who came of the race of those that are named the Black Númenórians; for they established their dwellings in Middle-eartth using the years of Sauron's dominion, and they worshiped him, being enamored of evil knowledge. And he entered the service of the Dark Tower when it first rose again...". "First rose again" meaning he joined Sauron's side when Barad-dûr was rebuilt for the first time, which would have been after his defeat by Ar-Pharazon, King of Númenor; the tower made before the forging of the One Ring and not the one rebuilt after the drowning of Númenor.

Is there really such a thing as “Fictional Tolkien?”

[@TheGreatDearLeaderJimPickens]

@@stephenking5852 I'm not quite sure what you mean

[@stephenking5852]

@@TheGreatDearLeaderJimPickens when Sheldon speaks to the guy selling comicbooks, he mentions Fictional Tolkien.

[@101Asa]

@@stephenking5852 Tolkien wrote the books but expressed that it was being translated into English. Such as why Samwise's name isn't actually Samwise, Frodo isn't actually Frodo, etc. They're just the names translated into English. This made the books very fucky-wucky to translate into other languages as Tolkein basically wanted to police the work to assure that the names, along with all the "common" words, were properly shifted into this other language. The "original" language of the books was from Western, which in the movies, Frodo can be seen writing in that script (though I believe the words are in English, just with just the Westron font.)

Not gonna lie, this kid's a pretty good actor.

Ha ha ha! When you have such a gifted kid that adults feel dizzy after a conversation with him! Too funny.

[@goyonman9655]

Sheldon doesn't strike me as a gifted kid He's a midwits idea of what intelligence is

[@druzysticks]

honestly sheldons class should be thankful that sheldon talking takes up like 70% of the class, dont have to listen to boring physics or science

[@gabriellemagsakay]

This kid who acted as Sheldon is good. Look at that Golem bit as example.

[@Homelanderwasright]

i watched the whole video and didnt see a single golem, then i realised you might mean "Golum"

[@gabriellemagsakay]

@@Homelanderwasright Ah. Yes. Thanks.

[@ondrejhofer8338]

The problem with Barad-dûr is, I think, very simple to solve. In my opinion, what Tolkien meant is that the POWER which Sauron used in 1000 SA to build the Dark tower is NOW part of the Ring. So as long as the Ring exists, the foundations of Barad-dûr cannot be destroyed because still exists the power that created them.

[@donaldjones8920]

Sheldon makes a great Gollum.

[@Ahsoka_tano12]

Imagine how big Tolkien was genius when even Sheldon cant figure out Lord of the rings

[@ricardoquinones1327]

The Slinker/Stinker Gollum parody was perfect lol

[@joelwillems4081]

Surprised he didn't just visit all the original Tolkien papers at Marquette University in Milwaukee. They've been there since 1958.

[@pisces2569]

Because he lives in Texas and is too young to drive

[@seanayres5]

Most likely he wasn't aware they existed. No internet back then to know about these things.

[@yerielurena1873]

As Tolkien once said in response as to why they didn't just fly the eagles to Mount Doom, "Shut up!"

[@sweetnostalgia6573]

Fun fact: Tolkien actually was more fascinated creating languages and only created the stories he wrote to have a justification for them. They are largely based off of Finnish and Dutch.

[@jillh440]

This is soooo my youngest... except about history and weird facts😅

[@isabellemyzer1807]

The comic store guy looks like Danny the Yetty from friends! Did anyone else notice that?

If J.K. (Rowling) proved anything, you can make stuff up whenever you want and only you decide canon.

[@edsmith3461-z7m]

Adult Seldon mispronounces Tolkien making it three syllables, it is pronounced Tol-Keen.

[@ATalesTruth-]

No it’s just a nod to how Tolkien wrote his letters to people and addresses things more clearly

[@blondymonk1535]

Ofcourse not. There isn't a fictional world as consistent as Tolkien's.

I can't believe Sheldon is mispronouncing Tolkien's name! Sometimes... smart people can be total idiots.

If you want to discuss a topic which is different then current topic in the class... wait and ask teacher for permission to discuss. Not everyone is reading LOR at the time and hence there couldn't be a discuss. Shelly is dumb... and arrogant, he thinks everything revolves around him and no one else matter.

[@patrickduffy1886]

In his defense lord of da rings is definitely da stupidest time line if any franchise tolkin even admitted himself in his letters Dat he forgot certain times and changed them 5 times through out da series so Der are techniqly 5 difrent lord of da rings times lines Dat al fucking cros paths wit each oder lol
