  1. #til that I am Bombadilian. I resonate most strongly with #TomBombadil, and not any of the cool aspects. When you cringed at Tom's poetry and wondered when it would end, I felt seen. Drat, not Aragorn or Legolas, but silly silly loving Tom.

    Oh well, we all have our rings to bear. Off to make up a song about my wife, who does not yet have boots of yellow

  6. Filming the entire 1st part (covering the first book and part of the second) took 9 hours spread over a week—less time than the runtime of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings extended edition ^^ youtube.com/watch?v=hZh7nwEUOeg

  8. Q: Why Were J.R.R. Tolkien’s Works So Revolutionary?

    ANSWER: I think people sometimes give J.R.R. Tolkien credit for inventing things he didn’t invent. Tolkien did not invent Elves, Dwarves, dragons, magic swords, enchanted rings, heroic quests, ancient kingdoms, or supernatural enemies. Other writers had created imaginary worlds before The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings were published, and […]

  9. Picture this in your mind: The scene at Mount Doom where #Frodo claims the one Ring and figths with #gollum. But the score is the #misheardlyrics version of Oh Fortuna.

  10. "...For two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, it ensnared another bearer."

    All shot practically using real figures, lighting, smoke, tree bark and miniature sets.

  12. I’m not sure how to classify this article. I’ve added it to the Trivia category but it’s not really trivia. And the article was inspired by a question I received from a reader in June 2025:

    Hello, Michael!

    Do you know exactly how to pronounce the name ‘Éowyn’? According to the LotR’s Appendix E, éo- sounds like “eh-ah” with the “ah” just barely pronounced, while y is the modified u,nwhich […]

  17. So Warhorse studios is in fact making an open world Lord of the Rings RPG? Given how absolutely riveting KCD2 was for me, I am mildly optimistic that this might actually be a good one some day.

  18. My ret-constellation for the #constellation #sagitta was to align it with a modern archer (rather than random assorted Hercules stories or an Apollo killing cyclops story) -- some options I considered:

    Kate Bishop Hawkeye
    Merida from Brave
    Robin Hood

    ... but ultimately, who would be better than Legolas?!

  19. 【ETO案|13 】衞志樑遣返欲LOTR入境英國港人家庭 怕被起底破壞滲透大業

    🟢 到《綠豆》網站了解案件自2024年5月起的發展:bit.ly/3Oku4Vx

    控方今繼續傳召匿名警員,講述他與同事處理各涉案人士之間的逾7000條訊息。訊息提到2021年初,有一個12人的家庭打算以LOTR入境英國,但因為在英國邊境打卡拍照,最終被拒入境,而處理事件的正是曾任希斯路機場邊防人員次被告衞志樑。事後衞被人起底,成為頭條新聞,由「藍營」的屈穎妍到《蘋果日報》均有報道,他怕事件發酵令他身份曝光。

    據呈堂訊息顯示,2021年1月底,退休總警司馬志堅問衞志樑是否有12人在英國邊境被拒入境並遣返香港,網上流傳有關事件,並形容衞是「黑警」,相關人士並在返港後找到衞的相片。

    ◾擔心屈穎妍、玻璃朱搞大件事

    起初,「鷹角人力資源公司」的微信群組內的人,都安慰衞志樑他當時只是按規矩執法,問題不大,事件丟淡後便沒事。但後來「講人講地」刊出屈穎妍題為《新12「門逃」BNO闖關失敗記》文章,《蘋果日報》...
