Some Tolkienika

Saturday night, we played Karaoke Revolution for about six hours. I’m still in the mood to sing! May I serenade you? Bear me a moment while I harmonize. Me Mi Mo Me Me!

Now that you’ve watched all of the movies, you’re probably interested in the books (or, upon reading this, are suddenly shocked to discover the movies were based on books). I have them (the books, not the movies) if you’d like to borrow them (although your local library is a great alternative). You are forewarned that they will be boring to most casual readers (unless they’re fantasy lovers).

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

– Tolkien, duh.

Legolas f*ing owned that elephant like a ten dollar whore! Spanked it and stuck his cock up its arse!

For your lotr pleasure (I read this too long ago to remember the details, although to me this sounds right):

Who was Gandalf?

Gandalf was some sort of emissary of the gods (the same that created the elves).

Wussup with the tree dudes?

The ENTS were given life by the elves.

Why are the hobbits gay?

They are more child-like and innocent (i believe). That is how they show affection, comraderie, and joy. Also, it’s not a big thing in some other countries to hold your friend’s hand in public (guy-guy) and other gay shit like that. My dad said he actually holds his friends’ hands when he goes back to Cambodia. (I don’t think he is gay, although you can never be sure of that kinda thing.)

Where did Frodo go?

for those wondering where Frodo, Bilbo, Gandalf, Elrond, and Galadriel was going, they were going to what was called ‘the undying lands’ which its actual name is Valinor. It is basically a heaven for immortals (basically elves and wizards) but very few exceptions are made for mortals that have proved themselves worthy, which are Frodo, Gimli and Sam.

Now we all understand Frodo because the movie pointed it out at the end. Where did Gimli and Sam popup? After the king died (Aragorn) and Arwen had passed away (in an abandoned Elf village) Gimli and Legolas had sailed to the undying lands for thier final journey. Gimli, being a mortal usually wouldnt be accepted but he was because he is a close friend of the Elves. With Legolas as one of his best friends and Galadriel as well (one of the only dwarves she is actually friends with) Also note that he took part in middle-earth’s most important events all lead to him being chosen to enter. As for Sam, he was for a short time, a ringbearer and also assisted in the destruction of the ring. Sam left his 13 kids and his wife to see Frodo one last time before he passes away and passes on the book that Frodo and Bilbo wrote to his daughter.

You all may think why do they still pass away when they are in ‘heaven’? well Frodo, Bilbo, Gimli and Sam are still mortals so they do not suddenly gain immortality by entering Valinor. They are allowed to stay (but not leave) and heal thier wounds that they have been inflicted in life so that they may pass on peacefully. Valinor is not really ‘heaven’ but it is to the elves because they can live on forever there, and nobody can ever enter unless they allow it.
