One thing that doesn't translate into Jackson's adaptation is that the kingdoms of men aren't desolate wastelands. Rohan is so big it needs subdivisions and the force that went to aid Gondor was pulled together from all the corners of Rohan. And the actual lands that make up Gondor just don't exist in the movies, even though Minas Tirith didn't have much of a garrison by itself at the time the story takes place. Hell, Mordor has a huge fricking lake to the east with slave plantations where all the orc food comes from.
Why did they include that part about some of Saruman's army having legitimate grievances against Rohan? It kind of works against the whole epic "good vs evil" battle and makes it feel like the real world, when I thought it was supposed to be the opposite
Lembas, but was there a general sales tax levied on it?
probably the same as mongolians, mainly dairy and meat based diet. they're surrounded by nothing but endless pastures
And yet we see zero herd animals around. There should be thousands of them
they're on the other side
pretty sure you see some when isengard raids that village.
Greasy snake tongue sent them all to their good friend and Ally Isengard
Saruman needed 10,000 times more food than normal for some reason
shieldmaiden ass
I will do it, I will take the ring to Rohan!
Fried Hobbit

They ate horse. wtf did the Elves eat?
deez nuts
what they can plunder from the hill-men
that's why they hate them so much as to join forces with sauronman

hackson couldn't help himself
It's funny how he included that but not the part where Theoden makes peace with the wildmen after Saruman was defeated.
Pieces of sċīte like you.
What do they eat?
I can't see any herd animals. There should be thousands...
horse apples
So...what do they eat?
Food shipped to them by the parts of their country that are actually useful.
Why doesn't this work for Edoras, primarily chosen for it's defensive capacities?
So, guy, hm, what do they eat??
Aren't I smart?
For real though, how did the cast and crew eat when they filmed that? I can't see a McDonald's or anything
horses. moron.
Debunked. I only see three horses in that photo. You're telling me they fed everyone with three horses? Come on don't be so moronic
Though it's not got the same filmmaking quality, the Hobbit was unironically more fun and enjoyable than the original trilogy
insultingly low effort bait, still gonna get 5+ replies
I'm not saying it was good. Just more fun and rewatchable. Had some more original stuff in it to tbh
I think the general consensus here is
The Hobbit>>>lotr>rop
Nice b8 m8
If you skip lothlorian and some of the Rohan stuff in TT, the trilogy is miles better than the hobbit
If the Hobbit movies had nothing to do with the IP and less subplots they'd be dumb but fun movies, like the first few Pirates of the Caribbean movies
