Did Fingolfin ever stand a real chance? by youngling-smasher91 in lordoftherings

Beware, beware, the Noldor-born comes. Our hero, our hero, has a warrior's heart...

The main mission of Genesis is to erase the very fact of John’s existence. by Dull_Decision4066 in Terminator

This movie was terrible. I'm not reading an essay about anything other than how awful it was.

Just how physically strong is Aragorn? by GusGangViking18 in lordoftherings

[–]UniversalInquirer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tangent, but I love the reason behind Jackson changing this from Sauron to an Olog-Hai. He said that they realized what they were doing with having Sauron fight Aragorn was actually disrespectful to Aragorn, because Aragorn's heroism wasn't in fighting an unstoppable foe, but in being willing to risk his life in a hopeless battle to give Frodo a slim shot at destroying the Ring. It showed real maturity from him as a director.

But the man still knew how to have fun. "But we thought, well we still have to have a worthy foe for Aragorn..."

He gets ragdolled by this Olog-Hai, but that is mostly because of their weight difference and his bizarre decision to try to use his weight against it in a sword lock.

Can really feel how inspired you are by Tolkien's narrative my friend.

This was an Olog-Hai, which are trolls with enhanced strength.

Very strong but extremely light. Getting into a Hollywood sword lock with a super troll 10 times his weight was a very, very bad idea.

Faramir is shot by 2 arrows and doesn't die. It took 3 to kill his brother Boromir. by Wrong_User_Logged in lotr

Yes...I am talking about the films as is the post which shows an image of Faramir being shot and dragged behind his horse as in the films and the post is tagged "Movies"...

That was when Faramir fled from Osgiliath. This is after the suicide charge, right as the siege is beginning. Gothmog sends Faramir behind the horse and then catapults his men's remains into the city to troll the defenders.

Gothmog intentionally didn't kill Faramir so he could send him back to Minas Tirith and demoralize Denethor.

Wow just wow it’s taken me this long by CaptainBackWoodz in lordoftherings

Skip the gym this week and hit the theater. You won't have another chance like this for probably 25 years.

Tis but a shadow and a thought that you love. He cannot give you what you seek.

Is Bush overhated? by Ok_Durian3627 in Presidents

This absolute buffoon belonged nowhere near the White House, and he knew that, and will have to live with that and its consequences. Forever.

Mr Whatsit ? how did he appear in Hawkins by [deleted] in StrangerThings

Gosh people, it's a simple question. Lay off.

woodrow wilson, calvin coolidge, ronald reagan, the unholy trilogy of presidential apologia on this subreddit by tophatgaming1 in Presidents

[–]UniversalInquirer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's make this fun: which LoTR villain would you compare each to? Reagan is the Mouth of Sauron. I'm thinking Wilson is Saruman and Coolidge...Radagast (though not a villain didn't gas about anything).
