>lol I'm backwhat was the point of him dying?
he didn't die he just fell in a bottomless pit
It was to show that homosexuality is irrepressible. You can try to bury it but it will always come back.
gandalf is jesus
Tolkien just likes confusing people, it was his fetish. It's why there's like 58 pages in Fellowship dedicated to playing cup games. That Frodo defeats the villain Sauronmen by performing sleight of hand is no coincidence. Sauronmen the White, Gandalf the White, Sauron, Sauronmen, Aragorn, Goranorn; the list goes on.
>>214223696>I Blom, son of Flom, son of Blon, son of Klon, son of Achrebion, son of Gerto, who was once king of all these lands.
>>214223440they needed to pretend like something happened to end the first movie on
>>214223780So who are these guys showing up to help now?>ElvesOh so these guys are with Legolas?>No he's another type of elfOh so he's like, a mountain elf or something.>No they both live in forests
>>214223696>That Frodo defeats the villain Sauronmen by performing sleight of handno that's willow
>>214223851You're thinking of Bakshi's Lord of the Rings
Somehow, Gandalf returned.
It's just dumb how often characters in these LotR & Hobbit fall large distances and magically survive
>>214223780I Giltharn, bastard son of Biltharn, grandson Thiltharn, great grandson of Fuk the Shit.
>>214223440He needed some down time to get the gray dirt out of his robe and hat.
>>214224233No fall damage in Middle Earth.
All of this shit should be public domain.
Itt filtered morons. I pity you faggots
>>214224330>"How exactly did Gandalf come back? It hasn't been explained and I'm slightly curious about it.">"LMAO filtered, filtered, you're so utterly filtered!"
>>214224524Don't blame me for other people's stupidity. I don't have to have everything explained in black and white
>>214223440to show the importance of having extra 1ups
Thematically Gandalf the white is not the same as the Grey. Grey was an old friendly advisor, White is a man on a mission. The point is to show that shit is about to get real, and the gods are on their side
>>214223440Seriously tho
>>214223440It's a prefiguration of Christ, you uncultured dingus.
>>214225580It's the same guy with a different wig
>>214223595Man, that is some serious projection. Kudos to you, faggot.
>>214227355Did I touch a nerve, Gandalf?
>>214223440>Eru: nah man, I'm sending you back.
>>214223841Read the silmarillion.
>>214227472No one and I mean no one on TV can read a book that big. It'll hurt their little brain
>>214223440Guilting Frodo for more motivation.
>>214223440He died and was sent back to eru Illuvitar who gave him power ups and sent him back. It was an act of the primary God of middle earth.
>>214223440Because he's a Jesus allegory.
Zenkai boost
>the white is highest rankunironically colorist and racist sh
>>214223440>ahh eru help me>sorry i dont interfere>dies>gets resurrected and more powerful>nothing personnel sauron
>>214223440>I, Eru, created these beings, but I'm not their master, it's not my duty to intervene, they must forge their own des->what? he already died? but they're not even halfw- ok fine>resurrect Gandalf the Gray>*user not found*>damn it>resurrect Gandalf the Grey>givexp 10000>I hope this retard won't fail again, am I supposed to throw the damn ring myself too?
>>214227244>>214228207Gandalf is literally Odin.
>>214228471why has he got both eyes then
>>214223440There wasn't a point to it, it wasn't intentional. He died keeping the Balrog away from the others. Catholic god sent him back because he wasn't supposed to die yet and had more tasks to finish. He promoted to White because he gained/learned/experienced more, and White was available since Saruman had betrayed them.
>>214228381>>214228390based erumind
>>214223440Gandalf isn't human, when the wizards were sent to Middle Earth they each eventually forgot themselves becoming more human over thousands of years. The reverse also happens. When Gandalf dies and comes back he isn't the Gandalf from before, most of his accumulated humanity is gone, which is why it takes him a bit to remember his friends.
>>214228471Get out of here Varg go dye your kid's hair again before you accidentally him a nigger
>>214228207>>214227244I like LotR and I love Jesus, but it's a very poorly done allegory if that's what Tolkien was honestly going for. Jesus died for the sins of everyone and was also betrayed by everyone, while loving them, he wasn't killed by a giant demon monster protecting his friends and calling them fools before being tortured in sauronmans door fetish tower
>>214223440idk because he didnt do shit except shine a bit of sunlight on some orcs in helms deep and then decided he was a melee character for the rest of the fight
>>214228515Idk, Santa has both eyes too you got a problem with him too?
>>214223440he was promoted to leader of the wizards since saruman went full LGBT with his cloak
>>214228619It's not an allegory, it's a prefiguration. Like Abel, Moses, Jonah were also, their actions and the events in their lives were pointing towards a figure they were typified towards(in this case Jesus). This is a repeating pattern that Gandalf engaged in when he died to defeat the Balrog. The other anon probably meant the same thing but couldn't find the right words. LotR is supposed to take place in Europe before the great flood and contemporary with the book of Enoch and Gandalf is more or less supposed to be like the angels described in that story given more human limitations.
>>214228661he highbeams the nazgul to cover the soldiers fleeing osgiliath. also he tanks a saruman fireball via magic shield then blasts his staff into smithereens with a word
>>214223440The older I get the more these films suck.
>>214223440Jesus analogy. Tolkien was a devout Christian. The savior came as a lowly grey wizard, died, resurrected and returned more glorious and powerful.
>>214229978No, that's just you. You suck. The movies are impeccable
>>214223440His resurrection was the “turning of the tide” after a first act ending in tragedy and establishing the stakes.
>>214230064Read the books faggot. The films are shitty McDonalds slop.
>>214223440Death happens sometimes? >>214223604No, Aragorn was.
>>214228677…yeah
>>214230081I've read them. I've read the silmarilion at least 20 times. Are the movies perfect? Anyone that ever thought you could get a 1:1 adaptation of the lotr is a fucking moron. Be thankful for what we did get, you fucking philistine
>>214223440He dyed his clothes.
>>214228390>I don't ever have to intervene because evil can't create. Evil can do NOTHING except what I wrote in the world simulation.>Waiiit.. what? They can't just build ships to raid my admin area!! That's off limits! That is just freaking BULLSHIT.>Ok that's it, total Dúnedain death, ten thousand years in niggerhell for you.>Oh, where was I? Yeah right, all according to keikaku, heheh.
>>214223440He had to die so that the low level party members can get the kill xp and level up. Duh.
>>214223494He died retard
