  • The Fellowship is TOTALLY different in the book...
    Aug 8 2025
    In The Lord of the Rings film adaptation, the fellowship is very unbalanced. It’s essentially Aragorn doing all the work, and Sam is the real hero, but I have to say, as I am reading through Lord of the Rings for the first time, I am astounded at the beauty of the fellowship and how they rely on each other. It is VASTLY different from the book compared to the movie, and I want to talk about two examples where that is the case.

  • We need to talk about Saruman
    Aug 7 2025
    We need to have a long talk about Saruman. That’s it. That’s the whole intro. Because I don’t even know where to go with this because he is so vastly different in the book and the details that you get for what he is wearing and what his mentality is in the tale that Gandalf told of his imprisonment at Orthanc is so strange. I just flat out don’t know what to think of him. So I want to write an essay to figure it out…this one might be all over the place. I feel like the last few have been all over the place, but this one especially is going to be.

  • Elrond is Lying in the Movies
    Aug 6 2025
    In the Fellowship of the Ring, when Elrond says, “you’ve been summoned here to answer…” He’s lying. And it’s actually the coolest part of the whole Council of Elrond section in the book.

Oh, I just want to be in the room with you guys! I want to tell you all what happens but it's so exciting to hear your predictions, and how close you get! I feel it's very important to remember that these books were written to grow with you from the point of being an 11 year old. As I love this series, and have read them many many time this is so fun to think back to my first time reading Harry Potter when I was 9 or 10. Listening to you guys is magical!

ps. Long Live Jim Dale!

How Exciting!
