Memes about Tolkien's novels The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Adaptations? Never existed.

Thank you u/Skeptical_Romulan for all your help!

Rules:

  1. Memes can't include any content or references to adaptations.

What? Adaptations? Ridiculous! We all know Tolkien's works are unadaptable.

  • Memes and comments can't include any content or references to adaptations. What? Adaptations? Ridiculous! We all know Tolkien's works are unadaptable.

  • Memes can use Tolkien art, book covers, text from the book, popular meme formats, etc. The sidebar/menu is the best place to find lots of quality Tolkien art, but Google Images is also our ally.

  • No bullying or gate-keeping. However, this is a subreddit for book-fans. Just try not to be an asshole and you'll be fine.

  • No spam, advertising, or trolling. This will result in an instant permanent ban.

  • Wider legendarium Wednesdays On Wednesdays, you can post stuff relating to Tolkien's wider legendarium

    I looked then and saw that his robes, which had seemed white, were not so, but were woven of all colours, and if he moved they shimmered and changed hue so that the eye was bewildered

    Gimli's bestselling Christmas single

    Ill news is an ill guest they say. So apologies in advance.

    But Gimli's "Song of Durin" fits metrically with Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You".

    I realized this when I misheard Mariah sing the lyric (which doesn't exist) "So Merry Christmas one and all", and I involuntarily continued "in elder days before the fall", and then the melody continued with Gimli's words :(

    I'm cursed. Death will someday release me.

    'So between them our enemies have contrived only to bring Merry and Pippin with marvellous speed, and in the nick of time, to Fangorn, where otherwise they would never have come at all!'
