Cool article DoT.
Quote:
Indeed, he was so welcome that Jackson even asked him to don the armor of a Gondorian Ranger and fight the blood thirsty orcs. “Rings” fans may see the Tolkien legacy handing out spears amid the ruins of Osgiliath.
I wonder which one he is? Does anyone know? Are they referring to Faramir's men in TTT, or the battle at Osgiliath in RotK. Probably RotK since they said Orcs.

Edit: I don't have a different opinion on the movies just because Tolkien's grandson likes them. (Though it is interesting.)

I read this about 6 months before RotK came out. It was basically the same article, but with a different date

lol, cool nonetheless


P.S. I think it was posted on here somewhere actually...

'Et Eärello Endorenna utúlien. Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn' Ambar-metta!' - And those were the words that Elendil spoke when he came up out of the Sea on the wings of the wind: 'Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.'

'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin
