"Fuck Man" or "We're Talking About The Lord Of The Rings Now"

Seil · 10-01-2011, 02:23 AM

First off: Reservado 1884 Syrah is amazing. Second off, I bought the Fellowship Of The Ring with struggling college student monies. Isildur what had this one chance to destroy evil forever.

Like, done deal.

But then, he totally didn't! He was corrupted by the temptation of the One Ring. (And that is how it shall be known from here on out.) I couldn't fathom the power of the ring, but I woulda totally thrown it into the fire of Mt. Doom. Then Andy Serkis picked it up, and then Gollum! Gollum! Who murdered his fishing buddy for it! Then Viggo Mortenson was like "I'm Sexy Aragorn! Look at me, I fight off Uruk-Hai!" Then Sean Bean died a glorious death. (And Gimli killed people.)

But man had this one chance to destroy evil forever adn was like "Fuck it." what happened, man? I thought we were cool.

Nothing to see here everyone! Seil has clearly been drinking(again).

On topic, I was pretty sure that Lord of the Rings was one big metaphor for the Bible. Gollum I guess was suppose to be Judas to Frodo's Jesus? Isildur I think was also suppose to be something like Adam... or maybe King David? Hell if I know. Either way, Borimir was a douchebag and his brother was far better.

Hey, hey, hey! There has been express rules against Seil (Religous Discussion) here. Also, the One Ring is totally not a metaphot for the Apple of Eden or whatever it's called. Whatever happened, Gandalf is at fault.

Seriously: Hes like "Hey Bilbo, events of The Hobbit."

(And I don't know if you know, but the events of The Hobbit was bad. Sure, killing giant dragon and like, glory and whatever, but The One Ring, guys. And then Bilbo brings The One Ring back home to his peaceful farming community. And, like thirty years later Gandalf is like "FECK THE ONE RING OF EVIL HOPELESS DOOM!"

Why couldn't Sauron find the ring when it was hanging out with gollum for 500 years? Or like when it sat on the bottom of a river for a few thousand years.
Shittest villain ever

Red Mage Black · 10-01-2011, 04:12 AM

Well, I think the whole thing about that was that he couldn't see where the damn thing was unless someone was actually wearing it. Why he couldn't see it when it's probably implied that Gollum wore it and didn't go after Bilbo when he used it is beyond me. Talk about neglectful, man. That and why he didn't just scorch Middle Earth to the ground just to find it while the armies of Men, Elves and Dwarves weren't prepared.

Professor Smarmiarty · 10-01-2011, 04:23 AM

If I had a few thousand years and the command ofthe armies of darkness I reckon I could find it. And like if I remember correctly Isildur was wearing it when he leapt into the river and it slipt off his finger, the same river where Gollum found it. Why didn't you search the river where you last knew it was Sauron?
FFS.

SMBP, I want you to think back to the films, if you've actually seen them. Remember how Sauron seemed to be winning even without the Ring? Now do you figure that the movies were depicting a world in which Sauron had been in control of Mordor and command of all those vast armies of darkness for thousands of years?

(The correct answer is no.)

I mean I thought the whole "Sauron got really jacked up when he lost the ring" was carried pretty well across in the movies even if they didn't get into as much detail about it than the books did.

Shittest comprehension of a story ever.

Yeah, fairly certain Sauron spent a hell of a lot of time after getting defeated hovering in limbo or some crap, trying to pull himself back together.
