Noticed how there are sort of "boxes" in Middle-Earth's map? The first "box" is the area between the Blue Mountains and the Misty Mountains, and the second one is from the Misty Mountains to the Sea...

Hey, think about it: you were beaten by a great king of men over 3000 years ago, you've been fighting a war with his people for generations, and right when you think you're winning, the king's heir...

They were bats. Big, nasty looking bats with big teeth and some evil spirit living inside them. But definitely not Draculas.

I can easily imagine the books to be boring if you've seen the movie already. After all, the story is the same, though there's of course much more in the books. But if I know what's going to happen...

Yes, why do people dislike anything? I don't like coffee. Why? It tastes bad(I'm pretty young, by the way, so don't worry, I'll probably learn to like it :P). Why do people dislike LotR? Maybe they...

Well well. I don't think saying "All who killed a balrod died" means that balrogs are much stronger. What else did the balrogs do than sit in Angband, unless it was a battle? Túrin was only able to...

Ancalagon the Black's pretty cool, simply because he is great, but my vote goes to Glaurung. Why? It's already said here. I need not to add anything.

Túrin Túrambar, Húrin Thalion or Fëanor. Túrin and Húrin because they are simply so tragic and yet brave characters, and Fëanor because he is an Elven Lord, but not a pure good one like Glorfindel or...

Doesn't necro mean black? I think it simply means "black magician", and that even though he probably did practice necromancy, the name wasn't given to him because of it. He was simply a black...

I've always taken that as meaning, that Arwen didn't want to chooce immortality anymore, and that choice was gone when she wedded Aragorn.

Well, elves do age, but very slowly, and also grow beard. In Arda, they are not the same as in other fantasy books, but very much like men. Círdan simply is so damn old(probably the oldest in M-E)...

They didn't feel it a hundred miles away. Sauron didn't yet know that the Ring had been found, and didn't send the Ringwraiths to look for it. The Ring's location wasn't known to him until 3018, when...

By the way, about enslaving that 30-foot tall walking tree. They were entwives that supposedly were enslaved. They weren't like that, I think, but more like flowers. So maybe enslaving and 20-foot...

Hmm. Once again.

Well, it's got to be Fëanor. He wasn't truly evil, nor was he good, and actually he was both(I hate characters like Manwë or Melkor, pure evil or pure good just sucks). And he was...

Maybe not Eru's plan, but it was, anyways, sung in the Song of Ainur.
