#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

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 ^^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZh7nwEUOeg

Q: Why Did The One Ring Allow Frodo To Hand It To Bombadil?
ANSWER: I had half-written this article and then had to stop working on it. I left the browser window open but when I came back to it the article vanished. So it’s possible I haven’t reconstructed all my previous ideas and I may miss something in what follows (as I wrote it hastily). I received the following questions in December […]

Q: What Did Tolkien Mean When He Used ‘Swart’ And ‘Swarthy’ To Describe Elves And Men?
ANSWER: I have deferred answering this question because of my recent post about Andy Serkis. I received this question in September 2025 and as I process my queue of visitor-submitted questions it was coming up when Andy made waves in the news. I hope enough time has passed that people won’t mind my […]

"...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.

Q: Aragorn vs Elrond: Who Wins?
ANSWER: Yes, this is a real question. A reader submitted it in July 2025:
…Aragorn vs Elrond, who wins? Would Master Elrond put a spell on the Dúnadan or use a weapon? Also beside Gandalf and Glorfindel who is the best warrior at the time of the war of the ring, among the good guys? Any Elf Lord would best Eomer, Boromir or Aragorn? Would it be evenly […]

Q: Did Sauron Actually Worship Melkor?
ANSWER: I received the following questions in June 2025. I have reformatted them slightly to improve readability:
I was perusing thru “Notes on the Motives of the Silmarillion”, and I was wondering to what extent Sauron actually worshiped Melkor?
Was he utilizing the apparatus of a religion simply to control his followers?
Was there any point where his […]

Chapter XVI in The Nature of Middle-earth is titled “Dwellings in Middle-earth”. It begins with a linguistic discussion of various Elvish words used to describe types of dwellings. A dwelling could be as simple as a place where the Eldar slept in the wild, such as a temporary “hall”-like structure.
The concept of a “dwelling place” evolved through different uses, eventually describing […]

#TIL that the word OVERRIDE predates computers.
Reading through #Tolkien's #TheTwoTowers:
"...leaping back into the saddle, [Aragorn] rode away for some distance eastward, keeping to one side and taking care not to #override the footprints."Makes sense; horses/tracking have been around for much longer than computers. One can surmise that modern usage extrapolates on that metaphor of "riding over" old #data to replace it with the footprints of the new. Neat!

Q: Unusual Questions About Sauron
ANSWER: These are not questions anyone submitted directly to me, although I kind of wish they were. I found these questions on social media platforms. Some of them were asked facetiously (as mocking rebuttals to things other people said), so I don’t want to give the impression that every question was intentionally serious.
But I thought they were all […]

In The Nature of Middle-earth there is a chapter titled “Note On Elvish Economy”. In years past I wrote a great deal about the economies of Middle-earth. But I didn’t have access to NoME in those days. So I thought I’d catch up a little bit on the trivia about Elves and agriculture.
Tolkien wrote this essay on Elvish economy in 1968. The opening paragraph reads thus:
Arable. The Sindar did […]
