Why does r/pol felate this mid ass series so much?>bunch of white men fight each otherSnooooore
>>539150763No, we're still around, we just moved to Aus because the jobs pay better and the NZ government is big gay.
>>539150763Imagine being an adult and caring about movies.
do we even know what that ring does? I only played a lotr video game on the ps2 and it turned you invisible.It seems pretty fucking useless.
>>539150763It could, if it were allowed to.
>>539150946Movies are adult entertainment.
>>539151034You can spy on women getting dressed. B-B-BOING-G-G
>>539151034It makes you high as fuck
>>539150814White on white warfare contains concepts such as honor and chivalry. Globalized warfare on the other hand has concepts like total war and genocide.The aim of medieval warfare was to take your opponents hostage and negotiate a ransom, not kill as many of them as efficiently as possible.
>>539151034It turns you into a Nazgul, and eventually you'll bring the ring to Sauron so he can take physical form again.
>>539151034The One Ring allows Sauron to read and command the minds of the bearers of the other 19 rings. It also contains the powers of all the other rings.Vilya for example possess the power of healing Nenya had the power of preservation, concealment and protection.Narya inspires courage, wards of tiredness from time, and grants the bearer an affinity over fire and light.And so on.The One Ring has all these powers, and the powers of the 7 Dwarven Rings, and the 9 Rings of Men.It is a means of unifying the wills of the rulers of middle earth with the will of Sauron, although Galadriel was able to resist Sauron, and Gandalf obviously can resist him, and Elrond also resists him. Sauron also never forged the Elvish rings, they were forged by Celebrimbor.The Dwarves also resisted the power of the One Ring, something to do with their race's resistance to magic. They just became massively obsessed with hording gold.It was only the 9 who fell under Sauron's control. But that's essentially what the One Ring does.
>>539150763Apparently the hunt for gollum will be similar in its casting.
>>539151584Much better explanation.
>>539151034If you have a strong enough will (e.g. Sauron, Saruman or Gandalf) you'll be able to subdue it and it will basically exponentiate your personal power. For Sauron it enables him to dominate others into slavery.If your will isn't strong enough, it just makes you its bitch.
>>539150763Indeed the dark lord Sauron is vanquished. Hail King Elessar!
>>539151634It's an allegory for leadership. Power can corrupt even a man like Isildur or Boromir. Extreme power can corrupt the minds of all those who have a flake of weakness in their souls. A truly strong man rejects the one ring because he understands its poisonous allure. It even destroyed Sauron in the end.Kind of like the difference between Goku and Vegeta.
