Tolkien. Lord of the Rings. Middle-earth. All of the above.

@NickAdamsinUSA It's so petty and irrelevant to discount someone's acting talent merely because they disagree with you politically

[TolkienTalkers @TolkienTalkers]

@INMutualAid If only the clinic "escorts" followed this policy...

A devoted advocate of her father's work and of her late brother, Christopher, Priscilla was the long-serving Vice-President of The Tolkien Society and took pleasure in the affection and enthusiasm shown by her father's many admirers and his incredible legendarium of Middle-earth.

@thejedijunkyard I felt exactly the same way! Thank you for sharing

@JRRTLore Weep?

It's official! Tomorrow I launch my new broadcast, Other Minds and Hands, with @MaggieParke. This will be a friendly place for Tolkien fans to bring questions, speculations, and fears about Tolkien adaptations. Wed Feb 23, 4 PM ET on https://t.co/nwUffzYGza and Signum's YouTube.

Holm somehow captured all the charm, courage, absurdity, gravitas, and Tookishness of Bilbo in the mere 20-25 minutes he appears in #lordoftherings trilogy.

[TolkienTalkers @TolkienTalkers]

What I wouldn't give for a film adaption of #thehobbit with Ian Holm as Bilbo

[TolkienTalkers @TolkienTalkers]

Martin Freeman did well enough with the subpar material given him, but Ian Holm embodies a Tolkienian spirit unparalleled by any other actor in the Jackson trilogy (an argument could be made for Christopher Lee, I suppose).

@TeawithTolkien It depends on whether you're reading from French translations like "Le Morte D'Arthur" or Middle English texts like "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight".

[The Lord of the Rings @tolkienarchives]

8-bit Frodo Baggins.

[TolkienTalkers @TolkienTalkers]

One of the saddest lines in The Lord of the Rings is about Frodo's ponies.

"But they never came to Rivendell"

@theoneringnet May this thread not descend into petty political disagreements. We can bipartisanly agree that a LotR reference is awesome!

[TheOneRing @theoneringnet]

Frodo Baggins was just cited in SCOTUS arguments by Justice Clarence Thomas, marking the fifth time Lord of the Rings is in the official record of the Supreme Court of the United States.

Frodo never voted and left to sail west prior to Samwise being elected mayor of the Shire.

J. R. R. Tolkien: I've spent thirty years developing this complex language system for trees

C. S. Lewis: this is Father Christmas, he rides into battle with Bacchus and uhh, a Minotaur

[TolkienTalkers @TolkienTalkers]

So, what parts of "The Hobbit" will you be taking bathroom breaks for during Andy's 12 hr reading?

@xan_desanctis Define "hero".

I think Frodo is a serious contender. No on sacrifices more for the greater good than Frodo.
