Fun fact: US-EU copyright law differences mean that The Hobbit will be in the public domain in the US before the EU but The Lord of the Rings will be in the public domain in the EU before the US

After 15 months of hard work, my dad has finished this impressive model of Minas Tirith! It is 1.4 m high and entirely hand-made out of wood. One of the most time-consuming parts was manually engraving the bricks on all walls and buildings, but this was key to properly convey the huge size of the city. Everything was painted by hand, adding some wear and tear. For a behind-the-scenes look at how he built this check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1Ywlc8ojjE
People always say you shouldn't rush growing up, so I'm saving my adulthood for when they put me in the incinerator 😜😂

So, I'm probably kicking a hornet's nest by invoking #Tolkien, and yet, here I go. Stay with me.
in #LOTR, both book and movies, in my head, Sam was always the real hero. He refuses to let light and goodness fail, even if it means dragging the "hero" to his destiny.
"... how could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened. But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer." he says. "...there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for."
I tell you that story to remind you that we are all Sam. Be Sam.
The darkness is not forever. The darkness is not insurmountable.
Dawn is coming, I feel it's traces on the horizon. There will be much cleanup, but dawn is coming. Hold tight to thoughts of the light.
I believe in us. I believe in you. I believe in dawn.

Esta es una de las primeras citas que me ha gustado mucho de mi relectura. Están Frodo y Gandalf hablando en Bolsón Cerrado.
Frodo: (hablando de Gollum) "Merece la muerte"
Gandalf: "La merece, sin duda. Muchos de los que viven merecen morir y algunos de los que mueren merecen la vida. ¿Puedes devolver la vida? Entonces no te apresures a dispensar la muerte, pues ni el más sabio conoce el fin de todos los caminos"

What's this?
A bunch of #protesters dressed up as #Gandalf from #LotR in #Argentina in front of a mansion in #BuenosAires in the #PalermoChico neighborhood
Ok. And?
That mansion is owned by #PeterThiel, the sweaty druggy #fascist #techbro who owns #Palantir (the panopticon privacy erasing spy machine which gets its name from #LordoftheRings)

"YOU. SHALL. NOT. PASS!"

I wish I could laugh in completed story... It must be nice 😂

Did you see the #Odyssey?
The scene where the Laestrygonians decimate the crew (3,000 yo spoiler) uses forced perspective to make "giants" (like how they made "hobbits" in #LotR)
2.1 m/ 7 foot men in the background, a 1.4 m/ 4 foot 6 inch woman in the foreground, a small aperture, et voila: giants
"Woman? You mean #MattDamon"
No
That's #DevynDalton, a Canadian stuntwoman, on the #movie's poster. Damon called her biceps "the greatest arms I have ever seen":
It’s pretty clear all the elves in Peter Jackson's interpretation of Middle Earth are just tired of all this shit.
If the Dark Lord can make time for his hobbies then so can you 😁
