Gandalf sketch from a few months ago.
Started out as a random dwarf sketch and eventually turned into Gandalf 😅

"Let a ploughman plough, but choose an otter for swimming, and for running light over grass and leaf, or over snow – an Elf."
With that he sprang forth nimbly, and then Frodo noticed as if for the first time, though he had long known it, that the Elf had no boots, but wore only light shoes, as he always did, and his feet made little imprint in the snow. | The Fellowship of the Ring - J.R.R. Tolkien

Fellowship of the ring shows the three male fantasies you said. The woman you love giving up her immortality for you, gardening/working hard with your friends in the shire, and dying heroically saving your friends. Thats really sweet. I'm glad those are your fantasies. But by happenstance yesterday i was remembering the many times i was a victim of very different male fantasies. I love you man, but you are a man. and sometimes i remember how you just don't get it. you're a good man, you'd help me if i ever asked, but you arent guiltfree. you're trying, you're doing better. i love you. but you're never going to truly get it. you're fucking huge. if i saw you walking at night i'd cross the street. i don't know where i'm going with this. maybe i should just stop talking.

I think I know why we're obsessed with adventure. It can all be traced back to LOTR and everything that came with it. The extended universe that we all meandered into after the original trilogy released in so many of our childhoods and young adult era. We watched ordinary people, maybe not human all of them but people, overcome extraordinary odds and tasks. Heists and escapes, wars and plagues, beauty and love and truth breaking through the darkest of moments. Only someone like JRRTolkein could illustrate such darkness and beauty because he had seen it firsthand.
But the truth is that's what we desire, a world maybe not simple but worth fighting for, heroes all around on the streetcorner. The truth is the fight isn't as exciting as it was in the trenches of world war 1, the evil hides in the shadows and lurks behind corporations who own everything, especially media. Let me be clear, I believe in capitalism, not the corporatist dystopian hellscape we currently live in. We can certainly take the fight to them, like the old ways.
Another truth though is we are so tired of destruction, which is all war brings, even war fought for good things, beautiful things. War destroys all in its path and all who grasp it. It is an atrophier to most souls. Which is why I think LOTR and all it comes with is so important.

I’m going to tackle Peter Jackson’s interpretation of Tolkein’s grand epic starting with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Though the Lord of the Rings came first on the big screen, I’m going to watch the movies in order of the books.
Here’s to an amazingly epic journey!!!.

"Cuentos Inconclusos" de J.R.R. Tolkien. Este es el segundo tomo "La Segunda Edad", donde es descrita la historia del la isla de Númenor, se habla sobre el Rey Marino, es mostrada la línea sucesoral de los monarcas y también es relatada la historia de Galadriel y Celeborn. Como ya he mencionado con anterioridad, todos son fragmentos organizados y editados por Christopher Tolkien, hijo del autor. Anotaciones sobre partes de la historia del mundo creado por él. Es algo confuso, debo admitir, ya que estamos leyendo sobre material no terminado que en vida de su creador no había sido posible terminar y organizar. Como ya expresé antes, fue estimulante y enriquecedor, pero es, en mi opinión, una pena que tanto material no hubiese sido posible de estructurar y culminar por su creador. . . . . . #elrincóndelescritornovato #elrincondelescritornovato #librosleidosatravesdemivida #cuentosinconclusos #jrrtolkien #jrrtolkienquote #jrrtolkienbooks #jrrtolkein #librosrecomendados #historiasrecomendadas #historiasdefantasia #historiasdeespadaybrujeria #narrativa #escritoresbritanicos #escritores #megustaescribir #escribohistorias #escribomilibro #pasionporlalectura #pasionporlaescritura #pasionporleer #pasionporescribir #pasiónporlalectura #pasiónporlaescritura #pasiónporleer #pasiónporescribir #escritornovato #escritoraficionado #elescritornovato #devenezuela (en Venezuela, Maracay, Edo Aragua) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK3oO7YlpaF/?igshid=1ki8ix2q3vyt7

So I’m watching Lord of the Rings for the first time...I’m expecting gasps of surprise here.
These are my thoughts so far:
- This is so much like Harry Potter should we sue JK Rowling for plagiarism
- Elijah Wood will always be Todd Brotzman to be I’m sorry dudes
- But Young Elijah tho
- okay okay here me out
- all I can see in Boromir (I thought he was Legolas but I’m wrong) is the meme
-y’know the one cant simply
Tumblr media
-that’s the bitch
-Do people ship Boromir and Aragorn
- #ohwaitaretheyrelated
- There is no way Gandalf is dead
- Maybe I’ve seen too much supernatural...the grief seems real
- oh Boromir is dying....but Aragorn did kiss him on the forehead
- Boromir called him my captain
- but are they related tho
- Maybe Legolas and Aragorn???
Tumblr media
- Sorry I get that this film is 3 hours long already and the book was written just after World War Two but why did it end like that?! Why was there no destruction of Sauron, no epic showdown....
- Dudes I’m angry.
-I’ll have to watch the next one ASAP

how I picture Frodo in the LOTR books as opposed to movie canon. He was often referred to as "elvish"/"having an elvish air," and was called "beautiful" on a few occasions.  I hear that in some versions, he's described as blonde, which in his generation, was rare for Hobbits.
