Why is the film so post apocalyptic, theres no large cities or anything? Also you guys lied, this is not classic fantasy like at all, its borderline fantasy deconstruction.
>Why is the film so post apocalyptic
Because it is, the previous age has basically ended and the whole world is in decline, which is why Sauron crept back in. Man inherits the world from the Elves as they're fricking off and Sauron is defeated again, ushering in the next Age.
If true then very cool, anon. Ever plan on selling one day or do you want to keep it as an heirloom? As much as I'd love to keep something like that as an heirloom for the family, I just wouldn't know if I could trust anyone else to take care of it as much as I would before them.
I own a vast library of rare books I collected myself. Take a guess what this one is. I peruse auctions all over the world for books. My collection isn't going anywhere. Also I'm not one of those gay millionaires who just dumps hundreds of thousands on whatever he can. That's gay and not in the spirit of collecting. >ibn4 that 1 korean troony on instagram who has 10 1st prints of Dune and 4 1st prints of the hobbit
hint: it was directly adapted into several films under a different name.
But you said you're never going to sell it, so that's meaningless.

It gaining value is useless if you never realize that value. If I give you a million dollars under the condition that you can never access the money, you would have no reason to accept.
Anon, you would struggle to find any assets that go up 400% over 3 years.
Why collect things? I never understood it. It doesn't seem practical.
It can be nice to have your own little bit of history particularly about something you love. Even nicer if it appreciates in value so much. It's not as if there are ever going to be more of what he has.
>OH NO IT'S SAURON AND THE ARMIES OF MORDOR IT'S OVER >Sauron doesn't take a single human city >doesn't advance five feet from the gates of Mordor
Was his threat actually overblown?
Because Sauron wasn’t an idiot. He was microing the economy of fantasy Russia/China and Africa to build up an army to crush the only free peoples left able to stop him.
Sauron would have taken Gondor had his useless sidekick, Sauronsman, not been cucked by God bringing back his mortal enemy, Gandalf the fool, from the dead. Truth be told, without God intervening on multiple occasions then Saurons plan was practically foolproof. However, God wanted to make a pun so he sent Gandalf the fool to foil the foolproof plan.
why was this guy such a drama queen?
He was a drama King, actually

>So it is before the walls of Minas Tirith where I will order my army to charge right into the castle-sized elephants
what a moron
Hi post
, I see you are going to every LOTR thread to talk about this, hm?
To be fair, Tolkein had 0 experience in warfare, so he had no idea when writing it how stupid a move that would be.
yeah, didn't he just sit around at home all day too? Really stupid that his fantasy cobbling somehow became contemporary western mythology.
RIDE NOW
RIIIIIIIIIDE
RIDE TO RUIN
AND THE WORLD’S ENDING
Doom meant judgement
my 7/5/3 1957 1st edition LOTR set (nearly pristine) has gone up 400% in value in the last 3 years
>a fire starts
>money stolen
Never happening
You should be storing them in a nitrogen box anon, it will stop browning from light/oxygen

I googled the name and the moment I saw the genre, it clicked
>has gone up 400% in value in the last 3 years
so it has barely beaten inflation...

My unvaxxed sperm
Aragorn should have told him about the invincible army he was recruiting
How could Wormtongue friend of Sauronsman betray me?
How did nobody figure out Sauronman was a servant of Sauron?

The theater in my town is doing a lotr marathon event on the 19th I'm so excited bros
Maybe next time don't trust someone literally called Sauronsman
He was so shit. Felt relief when I saw that he didn't make it
