Tolkien Vs Lucas?!?! - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Furry-footed Flatfoot the Hobbit · 09-22-2002, 06:27 PM

I had a funny thought today....What if by some strange cosmic thing, Tolkien and Lucas's worlds collided together?
Could you imagine:
Gandolf Vs Yoda
Evil Emperor Vs Sauron
Darth Vador Vs Saruman
Luke Vs Frodo
Strider Vs Han Solo
and so on...
Would the two worlds fight with each other or would the "good" pair up against the "evil"???

LOL..Just a funny idea, but Tolkien would roll over in his grave at the slightest thought of it!!!!!!

P.S. I know there is absolutely NO comparison between the two...Tolkien's Novel is sheer genius--a work of art with so much meaning...Lucas's is more on the entertaining, fun side.

I saw something like that on a Harry Potter site. It was Rejected Harry Potter Titles, and there was one that said:
Harry Potter And The Spinning Grave Of Tolkien
It made me smile. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

But anyhoo, I'd like to see the Balrog paired up against Jabba the Hutt. Jerry!! Jerry!! Jerry!!

Oh wow. That would be very interesting. Just think...(From a LOTR movie point of view)

The Hobbits are at the Prancing Pony in Bree. Frodo trips and the ring "falls" onto his finger. He sees the eye.

Voice of Darth Vador: "You cannot hide. I see you. I am your father."

How scary would that be? Oh my, I don't even want to think of what the Fellowship would be like if the two stories collided. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Well i personally like to think that all of the LotR cast would band together .Good and evil for a common cause.And kick the living snott out of the Star Wars cast.
Imagin the Fellowship ganging up on Luke and his buddies with there pansy sabers i mean Legolas alone could get them alone with his lightning bow. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

I'd be scared myself!

Reminds me of the DC and Marvel coming eyeball to eyeball.

The fact that you even came up with the idea is terrifying enough, but anyway.. Saruman is totally Anakin Skywalker. Good at first, but then... Maybe he's a bit Boromir too. They both die just after returning from "the dark side".. OK, I'll see if a good night's sleep can cure me of these absurdities.. Catch you tomorrow! (all who don't think it'll help, raise your hands..)

I'd also like to see Merry and Pippin Vs. R2-D2 and C-3PO!!!!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Vanwalossien--sorry to terrify ya!! I'll try to only do that only once a year...do try to sleep on it!!!
