If you’re a nerd, you’re about to totally geek out with us, and we’re here for it.
Lord of the Rings is one of the most-read, most-loved fantasy series of all time, and the fact that the movie adaptations also work very well was a huge relief to the fanbase.
These super fans are going to take you down a rabbit hole, analyzing the various Elvish dialects in the books and movies, to the point where it all comes full circle and applies to our own puny and modern lives.
Let’s do it.
It begins with a comment about how Legolas got busted talking crap in Elvish, assuming his companions couldn’t understand.
This conversation definitely happened.
Right?
Aragorn is on the Hobbit’s side.
Of course he is.
Why are you like this, Legolas?
WHYYYYYYY?????
This interaction is killing me.
The swap of how Legolas sees himself to this is hilarious.
Were they just not paying attention?
Think about that for a minute (or less than a second in Elf Time).
Was he even the very important elf he claimed to be?
When you put it that way…
Someone is ignorant, but now I’m confused as to who.
Long suffering, indeed.
Immortal nerds.
Now there’s something you don’t get to celebrate every day.
Coming full circle is a beautiful thing.
See?
I told you.
Well, geeks, are you satisfied? Could you talk more about Elvish dialects?
If so, your fellow geeks await your comments below!
