Y'know, this one
So the animation was pretty good, the backgrounds were beautful, dwarves looked kinda weird
Gollum was a frog creature for some reason? Everything else was understandable, but why was Gollum a frog creature? I do like how he was colored, though, since he's described as black and white in the books. That one part in LOTR that describes him as looking like a skeletal child(or something) would make sense if this version of him were lying on his back, except for the fact that HE'S A GIANT FROG???
Anyway, they skipped some jokes, big sad. Probably it would've been way longer without the less serious parts. The wood-elves part doesn't make much sense if you haven't read the book. I liked how they made Smaug a cat/lizard thing, I don't know if it's canon but it's very creative.
I think my favorite part of the movie was the songs, I got really excited and started pointing to the screen like an idiot every time I recognized the lyrics.
This movie basically felt like a summary of The Hobbit.
(also the animation that played every time a spider died was really goofy)
After you've viewed the art of Ivan Cavini, Sara Morello, and Nicolas Chacin, see now the youthful, mainly colored-pencil illustrations of Matěj Čadil, hailing from the Czech Republic. Browse it here! Then, see his DeviantArt page. The image below, of course, is watercolor, not colored pencil.
It is of the tower of Tar-Meneldur in Númenor.
In 2022, McKay mentioned that making The Rings of Power season 2 would need more time, possibly delaying its release until 2025 or 2026. However, there’s still a chance it could come out in 2024. However, there’s still a chance it could come out in 2024.
Here are mine.
Return of the King is my least favorite book and movie. I do like it, but it's locations are not as interesting as the locations in the other books and movies.
I like The Hobbit trilogy.
I like Rings of Power
Also I am only two fires of Mt. Doom away from getting Sauron. It took me 8 months. 💀.

I guess the complaints of Tolkien fans did not get through.
Okay, very easy inference considering Morgoth is the only Vala nasty enough to make something like that, but, evidence please?
If there were talks of a Beren and Lúthien movie being made, whom would everybody cast to portray Lúthien?
My immediate choice for whom I see playing her is Christina Masterson.

I ask because i always thought that they never get sick but then, there is some text passages from the Silmarillion that mention some elves dying during the Siege of Angband to a "wasting disease" from Morgoth. So, are they immune to normal diseases unless it's one created by Melkor, or are they not immune at all?
I wish to make a video guide on ways to besiege Mordor, and bring down Sauron.
But, I do not know enough about the armies, magic, peoples, and environments of Middle-earth. Nor do I posses the money to buy all of Tolkien's works, so I need you to dump as much relavant information in here as possible.
I know it's technically been done, but I have certain parameters outside of "Slice his finger off".
Interestingly there is a "global" food chain called Lord of the Wings (lordofthewings.com), but maybe you can tell where trademark protection is weak by their locations (shame on you Australia): Lebanon, Moldova, Ghana, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Australia. Their locations map shows USA, but they apparently don't really have any.
Hello. Someone on Facebook affirmed to me that Elros was the only Numenorean king to reach 500 years old. Is that confirmed ? Or were there other kings that got to such an age ?
After the one ring was destroyed by Gollum's sacrifice, could the Nazgûl or shriekers have found redemption and become good?
Offhand, one thing that would be very probable, is that the plot would be from Angmar's point of view, like in Battle for Middle-Earth 2. So making the Nazgul, the main characters would open some interesting character options.
Since Sauron played little if any part in the Angmar war, I would assume the Witch-King and possibly other Nazgul were put on much looser leashes then normally. In other words, Sauron's instructions probably were "You are free to rule and conduct the war effort in anyway you deem necessary as long as destroy Arnor."
So this could allow writers and audience to explore the Witch-King and other Nazgul as more three dimensional characters. Are they truly evil? Or are they well intentioned people who made mistakes and are paying for them? Maybe somewhere in the middle?
How would you portray Arnor? Similar to Gondor or would we be shown the dark side of the Free People?
After you have browsed the Middle-earth art of Ivan Cavini and Aaron & Shannon Long, meet now the work of Sara Morello and Nicolas Chacin. Click the links.
These two have spent considerable time depicting Elven individuals and environments. Chacin is the only artist, likely, who has worked on illustrating Gondolin so much, as you will fully see at his Artstation. Morello has made endless portraits of Elven lads and lasses in the First Age and beyond, as seen throughout her DeviantArt page.
