It's just done better in the book. The whole scene plays differently and I'm not talking here about Merry using a magic blade.
[...]
It was in the books, but not in the same tone. The quote is >Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!" >Then Merry heard of all sounds in that hour the strangest. It seemed that Dernhelm laughed, and the clear voice was like the ring of steel. "But no living man am I!”
Decide for yourself if it's bad or not
Yes, she takes her helmet before the fight starts. In the movie this is more like a shitty one-liner.
It's not in the books btw. Literally the ancient pozzening. One of the first, one of the many.

In the book the hobbits get magic elf swords on their way to Bree, which is what killed him; the "I am no man" shit is just fate fricking with the witch king
A magic elf sword specifically forged to undue Sauron's enchantment keeping nazgul souls bound to undead flesh made by the same craftsmen who crafted the rings
Lol, this is not capeshit. The book pretty definitely says it was her and Merry. Tolkien wasn't a moronic chud like half of this board. She dealt the final blow.
Glorfindel is basically elf jesus. I don't think he "predicted" he probably explicitly saw what goes down. The prophesy was given as instruction to a human prince to not chase revenge, there is no way to get it.
>Uh, no the point is a man probably could kill you, I just happen to be a woman. It’s funny though because you say that line, but you’re getting BTFO by a woman so like in a funny way, it’s like semantics is killing you, or even irony. Also what would you feel if you didn’t eat breakfast this morning?
I didn't hear that I should die because I was born a man for 10+ years when lotr came out. Of course I would take it differently today. Treat people like animals and they will become animals.
Glorfindel said to Earnur at the Battle of Fornost: "Do not pursue him, he will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall."
Would be better if it wasn't a human that did it. Because technically 'man' and 'mankind' only refers to human. So technically he can die to any other species lmao
Movie turned it into something of a quip, but in the book the context is one of desperation and resignation. She basically says I'm not a man, but a lady of Rohan, yet I'll do what I can to try and stop you from hurting my liege and kin. Yet the Lych King is taken aback and a seed of doubt starts growing inside him which is probably what lets Merry stab him with Morgul blade and Eowyn to deliver the killing blow.
In the book this is more epic and heroic. In the movie she makes all those goofy faces while in the book is described as some kind of sun goddess.
>But the helm of her secrecy had fallen from her, and her bright hair... gleamed with pale gold upon her shoulders. Her eyes grey as the sea were hard and fell, and yet tears were on her cheek. A sword was in her hand, and she raised her shield against the horror of her enemy's eyes. >Still she did not blench: maiden of the Rohirrim, child of kings..., fair but terrible. A swift stroke she dealt, skilled and deadly. The outstretched neck she clove asunder, and the hewn head fell like a stone. Backward she sprang as the huge shape crashed to ruin, vast wings outspread, crumpled on the earth; and with its fall the shadow passed away. A light fell about her, and her hair shone in the sunrise.
Pinched a nerve in my back and can barely even lay down. Will be attempting to fall asleep listening to the Silmarillion audio book as narrated by Martin shaw.

We're not talking about the books you fricking NERD.
It's just done better in the book. The whole scene plays differently and I'm not talking here about Merry using a magic blade.

So nowhere in the book it was stated that humans can't kill him? Or was it phrased differently

>ancient pozzening
>zoomers think this shit started in the 2010's
Fricking hell, man. I can find examples going back to the 1960's at least.
why would you lie about something everyone read?
just as glorfindel predicted
whats wrong?
Glorfindel is basically elf jesus. I don't think he "predicted" he probably explicitly saw what goes down. The prophesy was given as instruction to a human prince to not chase revenge, there is no way to get it.
>Witch-King: No you see I was referring to the race of Men, which includes you
>Uh, no the point is a man probably could kill you, I just happen to be a woman. It’s funny though because you say that line, but you’re getting BTFO by a woman so like in a funny way, it’s like semantics is killing you, or even irony.

Imagine the absolute seethe from terminally online chuds if this came out today
Tolkein, more like Wokein am I right?
I didn't hear that I should die because I was born a man for 10+ years when lotr came out. Of course I would take it differently today. Treat people like animals and they will become animals.
Haha, wow seethe more chud. Way to prove my point
Hate will betray you, love will protect me.
He doesn’t stop! Stay mad haha
I always chuckle when my enemies use the amalgamation of chad and stud as if it’s some kind of insult.
C.O.P.E
personally, I just jizz all over the place and then shit myself
>my name is No Man, prophesied to slay you
>t. terence hill
>cut out scene of midge getting magic knife
>still show him get stabbed by magic knife
>girl did it
And in the first draft Glorfindel was both in the fellowship and at the fall of Arnor so it comes full circle
this is literally what happens in macbeth
first time seeing anything to do with prophesies?
Whe she stabs his face her acting as though her arm hurt was really shit.
The actual prophecy
Glorfindel said to Earnur at the Battle of Fornost: "Do not pursue him, he will not return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall."
>But by the hand of a woman and a halfling... oh wait you don't need to know that
"dude In 1000 years a broad and a small leprechaun will kill him, nothin you do will work"
Doesn't sound as cool
>Newman can kill me.
>I am Newman.
The makeup work on Wayne Knight was absolutely stunning.
Would be better if it wasn't a human that did it. Because technically 'man' and 'mankind' only refers to human. So technically he can die to any other species lmao
those tusks are way too big

>a proud white male king murdered by a woman and a minority member
is /misc/tards praising of tolkien in truth a form of advanced coping?
what if I identify as a woman?
you become orc wiener sleeve
then in turn he will no longer identify as someone who can be killed
>I always chuckle when my enemies use the amalgamation of chad and stud as if it’s some kind of insult.
>he doesnt know what a portmanteau is
typical chud
