It would be interesting to see an abbreviated version of TLOTR where the Eagles simply carry Frodo to Mt. Doom and we can just avoid all of that other unpleasantness and move on to all of the non canonical prequels/sequels that true fans crave.

The eagles would have to carry Sam who would have to carry Frodo.

And Gandalf is still there, but it’s a younger version of him from the multiverse! That’s where the ring came from, the multiverse. And it turns out Bilbo is the bad guy. He’s also from the multiverse.

And anyone else’s characters that didn’t want to come back for more money are all also from the multiverse. And this time they’re not just saving Middle Earth, they’re saving The Multiverse!

Multiverse!

I'm stoked for Gandalf the Whites next evolution, Gandalf the Fabulous. He mostly just leads shopping expeditions and every chapter has an elaborate song and dance number that would out the endless elven poetry of the original books to shame.

Isn't it how the whole Gandalf White thing happened?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

I thought he took a bath for the first time in decades after tripping off a bridge

[–] maniacalmanicmania@aussie.zone 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

No. There is only one verse. Gandalf died but was sent back into the fight.

[–] pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Ah, so it's somehow Gandalf returned

[–] bfg9k@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Nah, Eru (literally God) sent him back after talking to him for a few thousand years and was basically like "okay, I know I made Saruman the powerful White Wizard, but he's fucked up the whole plan I had and you're the only Maia out of the five that went that has actually tried to do some good, so I'm gonna make you the new White Wizard so you can fix it"

[–] pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

I find it funny that out of 5 demigods sent to deal with an evil demigod only one took his job seriously. Like if 60% of your team do nothing and the head of your team does the opposite of what he was tasked to do you really need to review your ~~HR~~MR policies

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

So he got promoted to head power ranger? That's neat.

[–] maniacalmanicmania@aussie.zone 1 points 10 hours ago

Yeah I guess so.

I will release a gay porn parody with the sole intent of being more successful than this movie

I mean... He did already make a butt load of other rings. It's totally feasible he had a backup ring of power. 🤷‍♂️

The last one took all his hate and malice; all that he had left for the backup was silliness and whimsy.

[–] 5318008@lemmy.ml 9 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Briefly, between the age of elves and the age of men, we had an age of utter clownery.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

All that remains of that age are geese and mimes

'One does not simply waddle into Mordor...'

The Fellowship of the Geese honk in unison.

Don't speak that evil into the world, they already ruined starwars

[–] OtakuAllTheWay@sh.itjust.works 9 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Star Wars was already ruined. The Prequels were shit, it’s just nostalgia why people treasure it today. At least we got Rogue One and Andor out of the Disney takeover. Andor is something Lucas would have never made. The writing is beyond what he can write.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

The prequels being shit are still way ahead of the sequels in pretry much everything but the stupidity of including Jar Jar for whatever reason.

[–] kalpol@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 hours ago

We did get Clone Wars, or was that post Disney

Bombadil Zero: Origins

The typeface used for Aragorn could only make me more angry if it was Papyrus or Helvetica.

Bombadil 2 - Civil War killed me.

The bottom stuff has Tom Bombadil, so it's better and canonical by default.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

I mean he has had powerbottombadil at Hotmail dot com for ages

Viggo Mortensen, the guy that played Aragon, respects the books and would never agree to do more. They wanted him in the Hobbit but he said no because Aragon wasn't in the Hobbit.

But they were all of them deceived again, for another another ring was made. In the land of Moredor, in the fires of Mount Doom II, the Dark Lord Sauron forged, in secret, a second master ring to control all others, bigger and badder this time. And into this other ring he poured his leftover cruelty, his extra malice and some more of his will to dominate all life. Another ring to rule them all. And he decided he would go with a hammered black gold finish with a tribal tattoo motif this time, because he thought it looked cool.

Thank you for taking a break from writing almost every show made in the last decade to share this.

[–] Abyssian@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

I mean... he made the first one. Clearly pouring all of his cruelty, malice, and will to dominate all life into the first one didn't remove those traits from him or he'd have never wanted to touch it once it was forged. He'd be too busy watering the ents and petitioning that brown wizard to stop using bunnies as slave labor to pull his tubby ass around.
