Elrrrrrond!

Sidenote I know someone who has met Ismael Cruz Córdova and he (yes a straight male) said he was “the most charismatic person I’ve ever met.” And he has met a LOT of people.

A tumblr-style text meme featuring photos of all of the male characters from Rings of Power except for Tom Bombadil and the Stranger. Text reads: Maybe if he was a little less fuckable we wouldn't be in this mess Made by @valar-did-me-wrong on tumblr

This fandom is all the correct kinds of insane

The Two Trees in Valinor in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

The Two Trees in Valinor in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power after Morgoth and Ungoliant drain them of their light.

Galadriel before the pile of helmets of fallen elven knights in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

For a great madness of rage was upon him, so that his eyes shone like the eyes of the Valar. Thus he came alone to Angband’s gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth to single combat. And Morgoth came.

The image is censored because it has mild spoilers for Rings of Power. It’s the official season 3 description/blurb thingy that tv shows always put out ahead of a season. So very mild spoilers. Nevertheless, if you were an absolute spoiler purist who avoids even officially sanctioned content, stop reading right now. The full text reads: THE LORD OF THE RINGS THE RINGS OF POWER SEASON 3 JUMPING FORWARD SEVERAL YEARS FROM THE EVENTS OF SEASON 2, SEASON 3 TAKES PLACE AT THE HEIGHT OF THE WAR OF THE ELVES AND SAURON, AS THE DARK LORD SEEKS TO CRAFT THE ONE RING THAT WILL GIVE HIM THE EDGE HE NEEDS TO WIN THE WAR AND CONQUER ALL MIDDLE-EARTH AT LAST.

THIS MAKES ME HAPPY!!

I forgot this shot and thought it was a painting

I am a solid 2 years into hardcore LOTR fandom and I am still constantly confused and overwhelmed by ALL THE NAMES FOR THINGS

A wintry, foggy, spruce-lined path in the forest. There is snow on the ground, although many have walked on the path and it is full of footprints.

Closeup of a spruce branch and the clear water droplet that is hanging from the end of the branch. The foggy path can be seen behind the branch.

Walks in foggy winter forests where crystal-clear droplets are prettily catching what little light is left of the day. 🤍

There are obviously some mistakes in this but here is what Chat GPT spit out: “A meme featuring a grid categorizing characters from The X-Files based on their moral alignment and fan reception. The grid has three columns labeled ‘Good Person,’ ‘Morally Grey,’ and ‘Horrible Person,’ and three rows labeled ‘Loved by Fans,’ ‘Fans are Divided,’ and ‘Hated by Fans.’ • In the ‘Good Person’ column: • ‘Loved by Fans’: Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson). • ‘Fans are Divided’: John Doggett (Robert Patrick). • ‘Hated by Fans’: Jeffrey Spender (Chris Owens). • In the ‘Morally Grey’ column: • ‘Loved by Fans’: Fox Mulder (David Duchovny). • ‘Fans are Divided’: A fluffy Pomeranian dog. • ‘Hated by Fans’: Alex Krycek (Nicholas Lea). • In the ‘Horrible Person’ column: • ‘Loved by Fans’: The character appears to be the mysterious and villainous Alex Krycek. • ‘Fans are Divided’: The Cigarette Smoking Man (William B. Davis). • ‘Hated by Fans’: Diana Fowley (Mimi Rogers). The meme humorously includes a Pomeranian dog in the ‘Morally Grey’ category, possibly as a joke about ambiguous characters.”

Wow I hated writing the alt text for this and whined about it only to find that chat gpt could have done a bunch of the work for me. It only made a few mistakes.

Jesus Christ I’m gonna regret this. Ok so it’s a table with xfiles characters on it. The c-axis is morality and the y-axis is how much fans like them. Scully: good person, loved by fans Doggett: good person, fans are divided Bill Jr.: good person, hated by fans Mulder: morally grey, loved by fans Queequeg: morally grey, fans divided Spender: morally grey, hated by fans Oh god when can I be done typing this?? Sigh. Okay. Krycek: horrible person, loved by fans Cancer man: horrrible person, fans are divided Agent Fowley: horrible person, hated by fans I’m so glad that’s over.

I have several problems with this chart

That story is so good though and would shape his character so much. They would be remiss not to they’d have to mess with the timeline, but it would be worth it.

share a character (/ actor, really) who didn’t deserve their fate. (pls use alt text!)

When I heard that some of the elves had short hair I had a conniption, and then I watched the show and INSTANTLY STOPPED CARING

I have my wine and cheese sorted and am ready to settle down for tonight’s #TROPrewatch 🥰

Oh, 100%. And I know everyone says we won’t get to see that but why the fuck not? Elrond has sooo much happen to him and those stories deserve to be told.

I do think we will at least meet Celebrían, and maybe at the very end his sons will be born or something.

YouTube comment from two years ago. It reads “I am seven I play piano“

I saw this sweet little comment on a classical guitar cover of Evenstar on YouTube. This lil kiddo was browsing YouTube and found LOTR 🥹

This was supposed to be a gif. Fuck.

Eldest.

The incredible one-shot as Elrond and Galadriel depart Lindon. Their argument at the bridge and their later heart-to-heart. The masterfully rendered Barrow-Wights. Markella Kavenagh and Tanya Moodie’s moving performances. Arondir and the Ents. Adar’s Fëanorian lisp.

As well it should

Post a female character you love

…which i now know exists. Thank you!

The wall-size mural The Sun by Edvard Munch: a spectacular sunrise over a rocky coastline, spraying rainbow-colored beams in every direction against a blue sky.

Edvard Munch's 'The Sun' (1911) gives me serious Silmarillion vibes.

These are incredible. Where did you find them?
