Question and Answer Topic.
Permalink  
 


Hey guys!  
I was thinking about a person that shall remain anonymous *cough*"sir cody"*cough* making a whole bunch of topics just asking questions that are answered quickly and then there is no point for the topic.  So I have started this topic. The question and answer topic.  Someone asks a question.  It is resolved, then a new question begins.

The Valar don't I belive but the Maiar are shape shifters, most of them anyways. If not most of them then all of them.

I think that when the fellowship visits lorein either they were all going crazy or galadriel realy is a witch just as gimli said in the movie and if galdriel was trying to talk to me in my mind I would think back to her "get out of my mind" in the book borimir sums it up perfectly by saying "I am not to shure about this elvish ladies purposes" and that was what I was thinking when I watched the movie for the first time

I skimmed through Tolkien Wiki and it didn't say anything about the whole made-out-of-the-ground thing.

I was reading the chapter urku-hai they seem very similar to the bad guys of the redwall book because the insul eachother,the leaders kill the winey lowerclass soldiers, they like makeing people afraid of them, and when confronted with some body stonger then them they chicken out

Wow, according to the Encyclopedia of Arda, they do exist.
This is taken directly from the site.

Mighty creatures of the Misty Mountains, and perhaps elsewhere in Middle-earth. The only known reference to them occurs in The Hobbit, in which Bilbo and the Dwarves encounter them as they cross the Misty Mountains. During a storm, the Stone-giants emerge, and cast huge boulders about a rocky valley as part of a bizarre game.

The difficulty of fitting Stone-giants (and all giants, for that matter) into Tolkien's world has led some to see the Stone-giants as a metaphor for crashing thunderbolts, or something similar. However, the detail of the Stone-giants' description, and the occurrence of other giants in Tolkien's work, makes it seem likely that these creatures actually did exist in Middle-earth.

Here is the link to that site.
http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/s/stonegiants.html

Interesting.

Ya I know that but I usumed they are just called stone giants because they throw stones. They don't call hill giants hill giants because they are made out of hills they just live there.

Ya but I asume that is what it ment. Because I think Beorn is a stone giant from the race. And he was not made of rock. That is what I think.

Well the mithril coat that bilbo found in Smaugs cave, was fit for a very small young prince. And the Rohan and Gondor swords that Merry and Pippin used where short swords that were looked like regular swords because they were small. And if you are refuring to the movie then that movie is incorect. There we go that should anwser all of your questions.

He has a skin infection, that is my guess anyways. And Saruman would win at chess in Valinor, because he was smarter, however Olorin was wiser.

It was made special for him. Stronger faster, and even probably looks diferent. The quiver might have been the same I am not sure. However the arrows were the normal lorien arrows, but they are great arrows none the less.

Na, they are not like that. It is not in Tolkien's history any ways. But they would do many things involving horses.

I agree with you on the frodo/sam/gollum thing. However, the movie did a great job of making those parts not boring.
