The actual reason (no one cares) is that it can be heard all throughout the original borders of Gondor regardless of where it's sounded. Denethor and Faramir both comment on how they heard it in Minas Tirith and Ithilian respectively the day Boromir dies.
He's right, you dumb Black person. Except it has to blown in the realm of Gondor for it to be heard throughout Gondor.
For instance when Boromir blows it in Rivendell or Moria, no one in Gondor hears it.
It is subtle magic.

In the novels they mention putting his "cloven shield" on the boat with his body so the orcs cut through it. In the flim, dude was getting firewood so I don't blame him for not carrying the shield
Man, the costume and weapon design for isengard uruks was spot on. I think they used straight bows in the books, while regular orcs used composite bows. Being English, Tolkien apparently had some instinctive aversion towards crossbows.
all types of orcs are Tolkiens allegory for miscegenation, degradation and dysgenics. It was quite normal for the british to be extremely racist back then. Get real. >why do orcs have hair
rubbish
eugenics and dysgenics were a HOT topic back when he was growing up and writing this shit, Black person >africans were viewed as animals and literally kept in cages as entertainment for children >while the zionists and their golem were planting the seeds that we are all equal
ok dumbfrick photographies of that shit are all over the internet dating back to shit like 1910 in SA but ok homosexual good argument your entire worldview is a fricking lie and good luck building anything upon lies, Black person

That appears to be a pool surrounded by a rope, and not a cage. If you have any actual proof to substantiate your claims, please post it.

Are they though? Did you doublecheck the source and context of whatever image you saw on Cinemaphile or did you take the post at face value?
Incorrect. They are at most a "living" example of something good turned to an evil purpose. That concept alone is the entire backbone of Tolkien's entire body of work. Any allegory or metaphor you notice past that is your own projection as written by the author.
what are you even saying you 115-125 IQ midwit moron. An european genius mixing his genes with Black folk is not something good turning evil? Tolkien was connected to a lot of british Lodges if you even know what any of that means and those frickers were all on board with Kalergies writing publies in the 1920s. Shut the frick up moron!
Also incorrect. Once again, any allegory you find is purely projection. Tolkien made several specific statements to this effect.
>actually one time Tolkien said he hates allegory and LotR wasn't an allegory, so any comparisons, analyses, or conclusions you draw from his work are purely your own projection, and nothing at all can be definitely stated about LotR, except quoting the literal text.
kek. based obstinate midwit.
>all types of orcs are Tolkiens allegory for miscegenation, degradation and dysgenics.
This.
Tolkien literally describes them as the "least lovely mongrel mongoloid" type creatures and as black, yellow, and swarthy with long ape-like arms but otherwise shorter than normal (White) men.
>Tolkien made several specific statements to this effect
And he wasn't being particularly honest when doing so. There's a great deal of allegory on LotR and his writing in general. Middle Earth exists in the first place because he wanted to write a mythology for Europe. The races of Middle Earth represent peoples from different parts of Britain (the Dwarves the Welsh miners, the Hobbits West-Country folk). The very essence of the evils of Sauron and Saruman is that they're industrialists who want to pave over nature and do away with tradition, mirroring exactly how he felt about the modern world and its effect on the British isles. I suspect he more likely just said what he said to shut up lit students who wouldn't stop trying to tie their own ideas to his work. His writing is full to the brim with allegory for one thing or another. You're just parroting his words without actually thinking about them. Read the books, it's plain as day. Or if you'd rather just continue to parrot what he had to say about them, read the many OTHER things he's said that directly contradict this point.
Could Saruman not have made a hologram or something
you didnt see the scene where the trees who are not trees but named treebeard btfo out their home base and flooded it??
Yeah that bit where they killed a shit ton of tree people but then decided to not hunt down the rest of the tree people that are about a mile from their pits
Even if they had gotten the Ring to Saruman Isengard would have fallen. The army of Moranon would just have shifted focus from ossiligath to Isengard and raped Saruman
>toots the horn of gondor
>toooot
>toooot
>toooot
wouldn't the horn just draw enemies to your location? was this guy an idiot!
It's called self sacrifice for the greater good
yeah, and allies
It draws both enemies and allies. The enemies already found him, and he wanted the enemies to follow him anyway to save Frodo
Frodo's fault that he died. If he gave him the ring, he could have saved Middle Earth.
Does that thing give them +1 str or something? Why is it treated as some special item?
I can honestly say I do not know, I never played a bard class.

Frick off. Le enchanted items don't exist in Lord of The Rings. The horn was just loud.
One (You) to rule them all
Read the books you double Black person.
>Le enchanted items don't exist in Lord of The Rings
ah yes, the series famously revolving around the woes caused by an ordinary gold ring
He's right, you dumb Black person. Except it has to blown in the realm of Gondor for it to be heard throughout Gondor.

lel
it might have gave him a better chance at surviving. probably better then his horn.
Would Boromir have survived the encounter if he remembered to bring his shield?
I guess the orcs would eventually overwhelm him with infinite time but he might have held out long enough for Aragorn to arrive.
Arrows go clear through solid metal in Lotr so probably not
Yeah armor is pretty much irrelevant in the movies, only guy who was protected by it was Frodo.
he had that migdrill metal that stopped his ribs from getting splintered from the blunt force of a cave troll.
I remember being pissed of at that as a little kid
Just like stormtroopers. Why even make them wear armor if it can't even protect from thrown rocks?
In the novels they mention putting his "cloven shield" on the boat with his body so the orcs cut through it. In the flim, dude was getting firewood so I don't blame him for not carrying the shield
the makeup was so fricking good god damn
that is a man wearing makeup. not a woman.
o..ok?
anon, that's not makeup. it's a Black person.
Man, the costume and weapon design for isengard uruks was spot on. I think they used straight bows in the books, while regular orcs used composite bows. Being English, Tolkien apparently had some instinctive aversion towards crossbows.
It’s just Polynesians in crude 14th century plate
Like I said, great costume design.
Looks vaxxed and fully boosted.
Why do orcs have hair?
Half men

Ah, the racist finds justification for his racism conveniently in popular works of fiction. What a surprise.

They're an allegory for corrupt industrialists and spiritually dead atheists trying to snuff out the light of Middle-Earth aka Christianity.

Orc chads don't suffer the norwood reaper curse unlike inferior bald m*n
How did that Uruk become such a good archer? Wasn't he recently birthed?
Uruks were born with inherent knowledge in such things. Why do your little critters in RTS games know how to kill already? Much the same.

tbh that sounds like something an elf would do in the Hobbit trilogy. Surprised they didn't have that in there actually.
right before Boromir gets killed, Frodo's sword glows blue because it detected orcs
*shoots back*
>It's a white man's world now.
Hey, I was using that lung.
*teleports behind you*
imagine the smell
> OOF RIGHT IN THE WHITE TOWER
Honestly confusing how the orks lost
They thought they'd won when they captured the halflings so just pissed off without realising they had the wrong ones
Could Saruman not have made a hologram or something
