So Morgoth's Ring is an expensive get. I'm trying to go for hardbacks on these and ~$55 plus shipping is as low as it comes.

Idiot!

Slughorn wasn't even in Avengers. #SoDumb

As David Lee Roth wrote, "All the world to me a stage, and we are merely players. Transformers and kingslayers."


People making this show are dumbasses. Original source material is all right there in Led Zeppelin's Ramblin On' and Misty Mountain Top.

Just download the f'ing songs on Apple Music and do this right. Good lord.

I shall assume you meant to type Ramble On and Misty Mountain Hop, but had too much to drink.

When the Eagles inevitably show up to save the day they should play Take it to the Limit.

life in the fast lane would also be a good option,, after all the walking and more walking, flying along with the eagles would be much quicker

I would walk 5,000 Miles

And of course, They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard by Legolas, my first favorite YouTube video.

I'm waiting for someone to make a meme combining Galadriel on the raft with Tom Hanks and Wilson.

You can always check local used bookstores.

Personally, as the boards resident Tolkien Nerd and book purist, none of my books match. Even the trilogy is represented by multiple printings and covers. I've torn up too many paperbacks to fret about them looking pretty.

I don't mind the condition too much. Most of my books are used. I generally check Half Price books to see if they have any of them when I go there. I've picked up others on Abebooks.com or eBay. My set of the trilogy is a hardback set with a box from 1977.

I filled out my collection of the History of Middle Earth over a number of years at Half Price bolk. You just have to look diligently, and they'll eventually turn up.

Please share the minutes where we decided this. Thanks.

And do you keep Led Zeppelin II in your Tolkien collection? Answer wisely.

I like having my small group of friends in which I'm the king nerd for Star Wars, LOTR, and Marvel. There is solid competition for that title regarding Harry Potter.

Fine, we can all share that title together.

We can be some sort of Fellowship, if you will.

Book came in. Luckily it wasn't ruined by what I'm guessing by the smell is a ton of bbq sauce that USPS spilled all over it.
