>Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It’ll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they’ll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields… and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?
>No, Sam. I can’t recall the taste of food… nor the sound of water… nor the touch of grass. I’m… naked in the dark, with nothing, no veil… between me… and the wheel of fire! I can see him… with my waking eyes!
>Then let us be rid of it… once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo. I can’t carry it for you… but I can carry you!
Meant to be at toil right now, but decided not to go into the office because I've been feeling low and stressed recently. The thing is, nobody will even know or care that I'm not there, and I'm sure that's one of the reasons why I've been feeling so disengaged desu

Kevin Howard
It is insane how much better the book is than the movies.
Daniel Reed
had the chance to watch it again last year but at the cinema this time, in its restored version. that was great, really.
Camden Turner
Not really. The movies were incredibly good for book adaptations. There are much more glaring examples of books being far better than movies you could showcase (Hobbit for a close example, His Dark Arts by Pullman too)
Evan Nguyen
What was the dialogue in the book?
Josiah Brooks
bizzare fucking phenomenon whacked the fuck out tangled fucking web but i'm fucking good at it anyway

The films are missing the song and sheer poetry of the book mainly I think, as Neil Gaiman put it >Tolkien’s words and sentences seemed like natural things, like rock formations or waterfalls, and wanting to write like Tolkien would have been, for me, like wanting to blossom like a cherry tree or climb a tree like a squirrel or rain like a thunderstorm. Fellowship was great though
the only bit the films got "wrong" was when whatsherface killed witch king, and i think that was fixed in the extended cut
i prefer the films

The Scouring of the Shire is one of the better parts of LOTR and it was left entirely out of the films, even the extended edition.
Before I read the book and saw the extended edition I thought it was weird how Saruman just disappeared without an explanation. After reading the book I realized that the way the extended edition killed off Saruman was vastly inferior to Tolkien’s way of killing him off and that the theatrical edition ignoring it altogether was just retarded.
Jaxon Johnson

Chase Nguyen
yeah so you're not made of sugar darling
Joshua Murphy
cherrypicked quote the only way in which Tolkien's beliefs were close to anarchy in that he was committed to decentralisation, and hated a centralised state. His ideal was for England to split apart into many small Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, each ruled by a wise king
Joshua Edwards
escaping prison twice was a chad move
Owen Long
