Hmm, don't remember thinking of this before. It's a lot of conjecture, because we aren't told a great deal about Grishnákh. He does make an interesting statement, though. When threatening Uglúk,... |

I have been doing my absolute best to ignore all of this, but I'm finding it more and more difficult: it's everywhere. When I first heard of Peter Jackson's planned films these many years ago, I... |

I think there was a certain similarity, though primarily between the Jewels and the Three Rings. The Silmarils were made by Fëanor after he had considered how he might preserve the light of the... |

I turn my phone off at night. My wife has hers on Vibrate, and we just make it a point to check it if we happen to wake up during the night. :) |

It's not really secure, but I pretty much have to write passwords down somewhere, be it on a bit of paper in my wallet, or on my phone. |

The sails of the Corsairs of Umbar were black, who did have a connection with the Black Númenóreans. I don't think the color of Faramir (or Denethor's) clothing was recorded, just that both lay... |

A good question. I've always been doubtful of the films' ability in the end to inspire an appreciation for the books, but I personally can't say one way or the other. PJ's films, flawed as... |
