the valar are p. much gods / archangels, i'm not sure being in two places at once is completely off the table when elrond talks about the "oldest and fatherless" or whatever he's not sure that tom bombadil is the exact same being, only that they might be related somehow. it could be a case sort of like gandalf's -- he's both an immortal maiar spirit, who the elves know of from before he was gandalf, but he got special permission to be incarnated as a living being who can age and die in order to help men and the other mortal races.

I never got the obsession with LOTR EU, the story itself is good and interesting. Why would you ruin it with massive amounts of pointless retarded details and stories that have no relation to anything and only serve to cheapen the Universe.

I understand his contribution to the modern fantasy genre, but so much of his extra fluff stuff is so dumb and poorly written than it's hard for me to take it seriously. I mean yeah the original books are not masterpieces of writing but at least the story is overall pretty self contained and good.

quote:In The Letters of J. R. R. Tolkien, Tolkien describes Goldberry as the seasonal changes in nature, and Tom Bombadil as the nature spirit of the English countryside.[3] the dumb simple answer is: tom/goldberry don't fit neatly into tolkien's pantheon, and are most likely just Nature personified, which puts them outside the foibles of petty beings (no matter what happens, the world keeps going), and explains why Tom would claim to witness the first raindrop and the first acorn and blah blah blah

quote:In fact, in terms of the moral traits that most fascinated Tolkien both as an author and as a scholar, Tom Bombadil is Tolkien's moral ideal. also this, but you don't have to be a genius or find a myth-niche for Bombadil to figure this out, it's pretty on the nose

spooky girlfriend posted:No dad, fucks hot bitches, doesn't give a gently caress in general, busts out rhymes, ignores politics even when the outcome will affect him - are you saying gangsta culture can be traced back to Tom Bombadil? It's been said that Tom Bombadil continues to release songs long after his untimely death.

Has anyone done a stoner version of the LOTR, with like a lot of pot smoking? Maybe the Ring is like the buffest nug.
