Real talk: To my shame, I saw the LOTR movies before I read the book (which is fantastic) and I never really got the danger or menace of the ring in the movies. The closest I came to "getting it" was when Boromir went temporarily insane. But otherwise, it was a ring that made you invisible and corrupted you - big deal. The book makes it much clearer how dangerous it is.

Well that and it lets you impose your will on others, particularly orcs and such I think, so you get to have massive armies and set yourself up as the new dark lord. Or if you're a hobbit you get to make massive gardens and be the lord of pipeweed.

It's pretty easy to handle a haunted ring that tempts you with power when power seems like a distraction from your true love, weed and eating.

Ok I thought it was dumb at first but the more I read about "Bilbo and Thorin go to (Saruman the) White's Castle" the funnier it seems.

In the movies it seemed like it was the shiny property of the ring that got to them. They really drive that point home. It's shiny , we get it. Peter Jackson won an Academy Award for that.

IT seems like you have to know what you are doing, or at least already have some serious magical power to actually put the power in the ring to use. Everyone else just played with it and turned invis/realmwalked before getting themselves killed or hiding out for hundreds of years masturbating with it. I'm guessing if Sarumon or the Galadriel had it they would actually be able to control fuckers with it. Or cast Ultima. Or something.

what the poo poo do these super powerful beings do all day, hayer just loving lazy as gently caress and are stupid as poo poo. like, use your magic productively you dumb fucks. gandalf uses his magic to get hosed up and honestly thats cool, thats a cool thing to do why doesn't galadriel or saruman or whatever, like, use their explosive magic to help mine minerals for poor people or something. and if the elves are so smart why didn't they invent the iPhone huh instead of those faggy bows and arrows. like, use a gun, idiot. if the Manbeast developed firearms the rest of the world would be hosed. or, like, airplanes with guns on them? hosed. honestly the Age of Man is gonna be the best because you know we're gonna genocide the poo poo out of the ugly ones, and gently caress the poo poo out of the pretty ones (elfs).

and also, like, okay, are elves not loving humans? like, humans idolize the poo poo out of them, so why doesn't some fine-rear end elf sneak on in and woo some fine-rear end human with its 1000-year-old, perfected art of seduction. If they live forever, surely they got good at banging and seducing right, so why are the elves sitting around eating loving vegan black beans out of lettuce cups listening to harps instead of getting into some really depraved sexual poo poo imagine you had to live forever, and you were looking to entertain yourself. would you listen to another stupid loving sonnet about some dude falling in love or some dude killing/being killed or would you pop down to the slut shack and pick up some PYT. and also if you're an elf and you're married like you have got to be bored of that girl. what if an elf marries an ugly elf, like, that loving sucks because its not even going to change forever. that ugly elf is gonna be an ugly elf forever.

and elfish soldiers are retarded. if you're an immortal (at least from death by natural causes) and you're going to fight a much more disposable army with your precious soldiers, maybe don't fight them in a high-casualty way like with swords???? elfs have books and can make machines, why not make some loving war machines which are way more disposable than your immortalish people. the orcs are way dumber and even they figured out a way to bring a catapult to a sword fight across the world. elfs are all assuredly going to fight the orcs in, lets say, the next 100 years. they're going to fight orc infantry. they are immortal. why don't they take a couple weekends every year and learn to bring 500+ arrows to a fight, draw super fast and with great aim, and kill 500+ orcs each before they start swinging swords (where they lose, like 90% of the time because they're retarded. and also, battle of helms deep. the orcs are charging in from a chokepoint and are mired down in a watery/swampish area. just shoot arrows at them, don't charge at them like a retard.
