The Fellowship of the Ring is a masterclass in how to creatively adapt a book while technically also skipping, say, 4 entire chapters without missing a beat. I am more amazed at what Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens and the whole team pulled off. It rejuvenated J.R.R. Tolkien's work in a way that kept many of his important themes in it. We continue to analyze what made these movies so special and compare them to the books where we can. Time Codes: 1. Intro (0:00) 2. Peter Jackson Directing Action (0:51) 3.

Have you heard about the new Lord of the Rings film? Not The Hunt for Gollum, but another from the Peter Jackson writing team! Philippa Boyens has teamed up with the next generation, in her daughter Pheobe Gittins and her writing partner Arty Papageorgiou, to produce an anime-style fantasy film based on the story of Helm Hammerhand and his family. A strong voice cast has been announced, led by Brian Cox joined by Miranda Otto returning as Eowyn, presumably in a storytelling capacity as Eowyn belongs to a much later generation. Join us as we find out where the material sits in the Tolkien legendarium. What does the story contain? Why is it being made?

Först ut i nyhetssvepet pratar vi strategiförändring på Square Enix, vars försäljning av Final Fantasy XVI och Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth inte levt upp till förväntningarna. Vi pratar även om att EA planerar att implementera annonser i sina spel, att Microsoft ska starta spelbutik för sina mobilspel och att National Museum of Play har utsett fem nya spel att ta plats i sin "World Video Games Hall of Fame". Vidare tar vi också upp att streamingjättarna Apple, Amazon och Netflix har lagt fram ett förslag på hur licenspengar ska betalas ut, att Sagan om Ringen: Maktens Ringar säsong 2 kommer i augusti, att Blade Runner blir tv-serie med bland andra Michelle Yeoh, likaså Tomb Raider kommer att komma som tv-serie, skriven av Phoebe Mary Waller-Bridge, att Dune: Prophecy - prequel-tv-serien baserad på boken med samma namn - släpps till hösten på HBO MAX, och att det ryktas om att amerikanska The Office får en spinoff. Vi peppar också loss för säsong två av House of the Dragon som har premiär den 16 juni. Vi snackar bland annat även om att Edgar Write ska göra en remake av kultklassikern Barbarella (!), samt att det planeras två nya Sagan om Ringen-filmer som Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens och Fran Walsh är inblandade i. Efter lite mejl ger Tove sina intryck av Comic Con Stockholm Summer och i synnerhet av gästen Misha Collins (Castiel i Supernatural) Q&A.

Whitey and Damo are joined by Jeff from MCU's Bleeding Edge and they go head first into Middle Earth again for the Two Towers"The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" is a cinematic masterpiece that continues the epic journey begun in "The Fellowship of the Ring." Directed by Peter Jackson, this second instalment in the trilogy is a compelling blend of fantasy, adventure, and drama, set in the richly imagined world of Middle-earth.The film opens where the first left off, with the Fellowship scattered. Its members are now divided into three groups, each facing their own challenges. Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen), Legolas (Orlando Bloom), and Gimli (John Rhys-Davies) pursue the Uruk-hai to rescue Merry (Dominic Monaghan) and Pippin (Billy Boyd). Meanwhile, Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam (Sean Astin) continue their perilous journey to Mordor, guided by the treacherous Gollum (Andy Serkis). The third narrative thread follows the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen), believed dead, as he returns in a new guise to aid the people of Rohan against the forces of Saruman (Christopher Lee).The film excels in expanding the scope of Middle-earth, introducing new landscapes and cultures. The kingdom of Rohan, with its horse-lords and majestic halls, is a standout, beautifully realized with a keen eye for detail. The besieged city of Helm's Deep, where much of the film's action converges, is a marvel of set design and visual effects, providing a backdrop for one of the most spectacular battle scenes in cinema history.Jackson's direction is both grand and intimate. He masterfully balances large-scale battles with quieter moments of character development. The film's pacing is excellent, interweaving the various storylines seamlessly and keeping the audience engaged throughout its three-hour runtime.The cast delivers outstanding performances. Mortensen's Aragorn is both regal and rugged, embodying the reluctant hero with a sense of gravity and depth. McKellen's Gandalf is a source of wisdom and strength, while Serkis's groundbreaking performance as Gollum is both pitiable and unsettling. The CGI character of Gollum, a blend of animation and performance capture, was a significant achievement for its time and remains a high point in the use of digital characters in film.Howard Shore's score is another highlight. His music perfectly complements the on-screen action, enhancing the emotional resonance of each scene. The themes introduced in the first film are expanded upon here, with new motifs that reflect the evolving narrative.The adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's work is respectful and inventive. While changes were made for cinematic purposes, they serve the story well, maintaining the spirit of the source material. The screenplay by Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, Stephen Sinclair, and Jackson is a careful balancing act of staying true to Tolkien's vision while making the story accessible and engaging for a modern audience.The visual effects are groundbreaking. The integration of practical effects and CGI creates a believable, immersive world. The Battle of Helm's Deep, in particular, showcases this blend to stunning effect. The use of forced perspective, miniatures, and digital effects to create the various races of Middle-earth is seamless and convincing.The Two Towers also delves deeper into the themes of power, corruption, and redemption. The film explores the seductive nature of power through the characters of Saruman and Gollum. Saruman's fall from grace and Gollum's internal struggle with his 'Smeagol' persona are poignant illustrations of these themes. The film also examines the bonds of friendship and the resilience of the human (and hobbit) spirit in the face of overwhelming adversity.The movie is not without its flaws. Some fans of the books may take issue with the changes and omissions in the adaptation. Additionally, the film's middle position in the trilogy means it lacks a true beginning and end, potentially leaving some viewers unsatisfied. However, these are minor critiques in an otherwise outstanding film."The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" is a triumph of filmmaking. It is a rare sequel that not only lives up to its predecessor but also deepens and enriches the overarching narrative. The film combines a strong story, well-developed characters, impressive visuals, and a magnificent score to create an unforgettable cinematic experience. It is a testament to the power of storytelling and the potential of the fantasy genre. For fans of Tolkien, cinema, or just great storytelling, "The Two Towers" is an essential film that continues to resonate and inspire.Check out The MCU's Bleeding Edge Youtube channel and check out what Jeff, Cyber and Andres have been up to.

Megan Percy joins me on the show this evening to discuss the first movie of one of the greatest trilogies ever made, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - or is it Rings, as I keep calling it? I'm going to be honest, we mostly spend the whole hour gushing about how perfect this movie is, but Megan does come in and drop some pretty cool knowledge about the films and the books and how they may or may not relate. Here are the notes I had for our episode:You shall not pass! Unless you're listening to my podcast about The Fellowship of the Rings. Welcome to Life Through the Big Screen. This movie needs no introduction except to say that, like Ratatouille, when I revisit it, I'm constantly asking myself, "How is this not automatically considered one of my favorite movies of all time?" This is a great movie - and 21 years later, it still holds up as though it were made alongside the MCU. This is one of those rare movies - well, trilogy, really - where everything works perfectly: The acting, the music, the effects, the sets, the script, everything is pure perfection and I have very little complaints about the entire trilogy as a whole. Like most people, I saw each of these movies upon their release, which was always the week or so before Christmas, so these were perfect Christmas treats for the world to enjoy. Thank you, still, Peter Jackson, for the memories. I knew nothing about TLOTR going into my first viewing of Fellowship, but I did read the books years after seeing The Return of the King. I may get burned by many of you, but this is one instance where I believe the movies are better than the books. I beg your forgiveness. I do like the extended versions of the movies, though! But for this segment, we're just going to discuss the theatrical release. Oh, and pro-tip: If you have access to the extended versions, you HAVE to take the time to watch the behind the scenes documentary - that story alone is just as exciting as the movie itself, I kid you not. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring stars (and this is a partial list): Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Orlando Bloom, Sean Bean, Sean Astin, and so many more. It's based off the book by J.R.R. Tolkien, and written for the screen by Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens. It was directed by the great Peter Jackson - the true Lord of the Rings. On Rotten Tomatoes the film has a critics' score of 91% and an audience score of 95% - both scores I consider to be rather low, actually. This evening I have with me Megan Percy, a friend and neighbor and avid Lord of the Rings fan. So Megan, if you could please share with us a little bit more about who you are, what you do for a living, and for fun? Questions About the Movie: Tell us about your history with this trilogy. When did you first read the books, and are you old enough to have seen the movies in theaters? Would Tolkien be proud of this recreation of Middle-Earth? This movie is 21 years old this year. Why do you think it still holds up so well, where other movies of this time just fade away into cheesiness? Did the prologue explain everything it needed to in order to set up the story? Couldn't Elrond have killed Isildur, who took the Ring from Sauron? The Star Wars prequels were coming out during these movies' releases. Say what you will about them, but they kind of groomed audiences to settle for bad acting and mediocre effects and convoluted stories. Do you think TLOTR, because the acting is so superior to anything we'd seen in an epic since perhaps Braveheart or Titanic, the effects are practical and hold up, and the story is relatively easy to follow, audiences were glad for an epic that worked on all four cylinders? In short, did the Star Wars prequels help with the success of TLOTR? What is your favorite sequence in this whole movie, and why? Questions for Application To you, what does the Ring symbolize? What can we expect with this Amazon series, The Rings of Power? Will we get to see the origins of the Nazgul? Gandolf says, "It is in men we must place our hope." Is Tolkein speaking to the goodness of men? Galandrielle says, "Even the smallest person can change the course of the future." Do you believe this? And how so? Once we finish up gushing and slobbering over Fellowship and Peter Jackson, I ask Megan five trivia questions about the film and have her name three desert island movies and three desert island books.

"Um anel para governar todos eles. Um anel para encontrá-los. Um anel para trazer todos eles e na escuridão prendê-los!" Senhor dos Anéis: A Sociedade do Anel (2001) é uma obra cinematográfica capaz de transpor o espectador para uma realidade fantástica de forma tão imersiva que chega a parecer que estamos assistindo um filme sobre a história de alguns antepassados. Tudo isso é fruto de um cuidado gigantesco na produção, que releva o carinho que o diretor tem com a obra que deu origem ao roteiro. É um filme que fala com uma geração. E mais importante, é um filme que fala com a geração dos criadores desse programa. Dirigido por Peter Jackson e roteirizado por Fran Walsh e Philippa Boyens, o primeiro longa da trilogia Senhor dos Anéis é uma realização inacreditável que tomou os cinemas de 2001 e marcou a vida de muitos que assistiram. Outro trabalho brilhante que acompanha o longa é trilha sonora impactante composta por Howard Shore.

Jared, Oriana and Ned talk about Ned's choice of topic: Tolkien's essay “A Secret Vice.” Originally prepared as a lecture called “A Hobby for the Home” for an Oxford literary society in 1931, “A Secret Vice” is now regarded as one of the two most key essays, along with “On Fairy-Stories” of Tolkien essentially reflecting on his own work and what drove his creative interests. His training and work as a philologist grew out not only an interest in languages in general but in creating them for his own interest, and it's long been clear that his early development of the Elvish languages in particular are what led him to start creating poetry and prose set in his legendarium to begin with. At the same time, the time and place of the essay's creation demonstrates that a lot of his stance involves assumptions that wider linguistic scholarship has since moved on from. What was the popular impact of constructed languages such as Esperanto on Tolkien's own belief in how such languages could thrive? Why is it important to distinguish between Tolkien's favored belief in sound symbolism and the separate school of structural linguistics? What were some of the evident biases that Tolkien's own favored languages – not to mention his native language, English – created in terms of what he wanted to create himself with his own original tongues? And just what was it with his way of dancing around actually talking about what interested him in the subject instead of simply flat out stating it?SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle.

Aaron and Josh Sarnecky are here for their final podcast of the year. This time they're chatting about The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, which opened in theaters on December 19, 2001 and is celebrating its 20th anniversary. The Fellowship of the Ring is an epic fantasy film directed by Peter Jackson, who co-wrote the screenplay with Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens. The movie adapts the first volume of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. The film tells the story of Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood, Deep Impact), a Hobbit living in the idyllic countryside of the Shire. Frodo begins a dangerous journey after the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen, X-Men) discovers the dark origins of Frodo's magic ring. With the help of his friends, which include Sam (Sean Astin, The Goonies), Merry (Dominic Monaghan, Lost), Pippin (Billy Boyd, Outlander) and Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen, Eastern Promises), Frodo must cast the Ring into Mount Doom before the forces of evil take it. Some other members of the ensemble cast are Christopher Lee (Hugo) as Saruman, Orlando Bloom (Troy) as Legolas, Jonathan Rhys-Davies (Aquaman) as Gimli, Sean Bean (Patriot Games) as Boromir, and Cate Blanchett (Nightmare Alley) as Galadriel. The Fellowship of the Ring was the second highest grossing movie of 2001 and garnered widespread acclaim from both critics and moviegoers. The movie earned 14 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor for McKellen, and Best Adapted Screenplay. It won Best Score, Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects, and Best Makeup. Podcast topics include the movie's plot, characters, action, and effects. The brothers also discuss previous adaptations of Tolkien and Jackson's choice to make The Lord of the Rings before The Hobbit. To wrap things up, Josh and Aaron talk about the highs and lows of their 2021 podcasts. You can also listen to Josh and Aaron's podcast on the final Lord of the Rings film, The Return of the King.

Tras el asesinato de George Floyd que murió asfixiado por un policía el 25 de mayo -el caso de racismo y violencia que indigna al mundo-, volvieron a la acción después de tres años de silencio. Luego de la muerte del afroamericano, el grupo de activistas publicó en sus redes sociales un mensaje donde aseguraba que revelaría todos los detalles oscuros del accionar de la policía de Minneápolis, la ciudad en la que tuvo lugar el terrible incidente. Y eso no fue todo. Además dejaron otras revelaciones impactantes. Muerte de la princesa Diana.

Lista Negra de Jeffrey Epstein. Un libro con muchos nombres reconocidos formó parte de las filtraciones de Anonymous donde señala que el fallecido empresario Jeffrey Epstein mantenía una “red de tráfico sexual infantil” donde varios famosos y millonarios llegaron a formar parte, al solicitar ese tipo de servicios incluyendo a Donald Trump. Y además sugieren se investigue a Jair Bolsonaro en este mismo contexto. Última llamada de Michael Jackson. Otra de las filtraciones que más llamó la atención de los usuarios fue un audio perteneciente presuntamente al Rey del Pop, Michael Jackson, correspondiente al día antes de morir. Casos del Vaticano. El portal del Vaticano fue hackeado por 2 horas. Sin embargo, en redes sociales se difundieron más de 6 mil denuncias por casos de abuso sexual infantil por parte de miembros de la iglesia. En otro vídeo, la organización prometió revelar los secretos del misterioso lugar donde se cree que hay elementos extraterrestres en manos del gobierno estadounidense, el Área 51. Anonymous consiguió fama mundial en el escándalo de Wikileaks. En ese momento, se auto declararon "enemigos" de todos los que le negaron ayuda a Julian Assange. Además, han hackeado múltiples sitios web de instituciones gubernamentales, agencias y otras corporaciones y entidades.

Según la agencia AP, 16 de las denuncias fueron “cerradas sin disciplina” y se emitieron dos cartas de reprimenda para Chauvin relacionadas con el resto de casos.

El contrato que une a Messi con el Barcelona expira a mediados de 2021. Sin embargo, el delantero podía marcharse con el pase en su poder a una liga menor si informaba a la institución su deseo de romper el vínculo antes del 31 de mayo de este año. Esta cláusula fue filtrada por la prensa española hace un par de meses, causando gran revuelo. Sin embargo, desde Barcelona estaban tranquilos ya que sabían que el rosarino no tenía intención de ejecutarla. Ahora, el club catalán tiene un año para renovar el convenio con Messi, de 32 años. La idea es ofrecerle una renovación vitalicia, similar a la firmada con otros ídolos del club como Xavi Hernández y Andrés Iniesta. ANTENA2 FALLECIÓ JANEZ KOCIJANCIC.

In today's podcast, we talk about the beginning of the story, up until Buckleberry Ferry. So grab some lembas bread and let's go on an adventure! ----more---- Transcript Welcome to Nerd Heaven. I’m Adam David Collings, the author of Jewel of the Stars. And I am a nerd This is episode 22 of the podcast. Today is the first installment of my Lord of The Rings, Read, Walk and Watch series. If you’ve been following my content anywhere, you’re most likely aware that I’ve been doing a walk to mordor challenge. Using a pedometer, and an app on my phone called Walk to Mordor, I enter the distance I’ve walked at the end of each day, and the app tells me how far along the legendary journey from the Shire to Mordor I have travelled. There are lots of milestones along the way. From time to time, I’ll be doing one of these episodes where I dig into the story of Lord of The Rings, discussing it as far where I’ve walked, drawing from both the books and the movies. I’m not really going to be comparing the book and movie, I’m just going to be drawing from both. In this installment, I’ll be talking about the beginning of the story, up and until Buckleberry Ferry Lord of the Rings Part 1 The Fellowship Of The Ring was written by J.R.R Tokkien. It was first published in 1954. The movie was written by Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, and Peter Jackson. It was directed by Peter Jackson And first released in cinemas on the 19th of December 2001. The description on IMDB reads A meek Hobbit from the Shire and eight companions set out on a journey to destroy the powerful One Ring and save Middle-earth from the Dark Lord Sauron. So. Let’s go on an adventure. My first experience with Lord of The Rings was seeing Fellowship of the Ring at the cinema. I hadn’t read the book prior to this, and was blown away by the epic scope of the story. So I’m not a hard-core lifelong Tolkien fan. There are many people who cold run rings around me in terms of their knowledge of the lore of Lore of The Rings. So I’m not doing this as an expert, just a nerd geeking out of a story that I think we can all agree is pretty darn awesome. Both the book and the movie start off giving us backstory and setup, but they do it in very different ways. The prologue to the novel reads somewhat like a non-fiction book written in universe. No book would ever be published today if it began this way, but there is a certain old-fashion charm to this prologue. While the book focuses on the smaller details, the history of hobbits, and how Bilbo came to have the ring, the movie delves right back to the creation of the ring and the first battle with Sauron. Important aspects of the world that the books keep a mystery for now. I think both were the correct choices for the given medium. See, I said the point of this wasn’t to compare the two, but given the different ways they start, it’s kind of hard not to. This opening sequence for the movie sets up the stakes from the beginning. We know how powerful, and how dangerous this ring is. So when it comes into Frodo’s possession, we already fear for him. These sequences were great to watch. This movie was pretty revolutionary in it’s use of CGI to create huge armies. It was the feat for the eyes when it first came out, and is still impressive today, although no longer unique. I like the sense of wonder you get as history become legend and legend became myth over 2 and a half thousand years. The extended version of the movie actually follows the prologue of the book more closely. Narrated by Bilbo. I only saw the extended version about a year ago, so it’s still pretty new and exciting to me. The set for Hobbiton is awesome. I’ve always loved it. You can’t watch this and not just want to be transported there. And of course the music! It fits the visuals so well and has got to be one of the most memorable pieces of movie music ever. I love it. The new scene where Bilbo has a panic attack because he can’t find the ring is a nice touch. IT shows the addictive powers that it has over those it owns. Bilbo and Frodo kind of represent two different responses to the amazing World Tolkien created. Bilbo is tired of living in the idyylic shire. He wants to go and travel, to experience advanture again. Frodo also has some interest in adventure, but he is still in love with the shire. And who wouldn’t be? I can identify with both of them. I’d want to go and see the whole of Middle Earth. But I’d want to know the Shire is still there to return to. If there’s one thing the story shows us at the beginning, it’s that life in the shire is very very good. One of the best things about being a hobbit would be how much they love food. They also like drinking beer and smoking pipe weed, neither of which interest me, but I loooove food. Bilbo has some genuine regret about leaving Frodo behind. He’s the only family that Bilbo actually likes. Biblo’s behaviour regarding the ring stimulates Gandalf’s suspicions straight away. He doesn’t know the full story, but there’s definitely something off about it. The ring hadn’t been used in decades. When Bilbo uses it to escape, he doesn’t seem to suffer any effects. No scary flaming eye staring at him. But that moment of usage is probably what first gets Sauron’s attention. The ring calls out to him after all these years. Now he must retrieve it. And so, Golumn is captured and tortured. I like the scene in the movie where Gandalf is researching the ring. I know it’s just him reading to himself, but it adds a real sense of history. Life continues as it always has back in the shire. They eat, they dance, they sing. It’s a truly joyful moment when we see them in the pub. And then Gandalf shows up to share what he has learned with Frodo. For that one moment, when Frodo says there is no text, I think Gandalf thinks maybe, just maybe he was wrong. But when Frodo says the Elvish writing has appeared, his face just dropped. So this trinket that Bilbo passed on to Frodo is the one ring. Such a significant and ancient thing. While both Frodo and Galdalf must be feeling a lot of fear and dread in this moment, there’s got to also be a profound sense of wonder that they’d be feeling as well. I know I would. Which, I suppose, is a problem, because it’s just another thing that makes the ring more enticing. This discovery about the ring comes in parallel with Gandalf learning of the return of Sauron and the regathering of forces at Mordor. Even the hobbits are talking. They know something is brewing in the wider world. We learn here that the ring is basically sentient. It has a consciousness. It thinks. It has desires. This is because Sauron poured part of himself into the ring. It’s like a piece of his consciousness possessing the inanimate object. Without that, this is just a piece of gold like any other. When Frodo learns the truth about the ring, his first impulse is to hide it. It’s actually impressive how quickly he formulates a good plan. “Nobody knows it’s here. We just bury it and never speak of it again.” That’s a good plan, and it could have worked, maybe for thousands more years. Except that it’s too late. Because of Golum. Sauron got to Gollum first and has told him exactly where to find the ring. Shire. Baggins. That will take the enemy literally to Frodo’s front door. This is the point in the book where we get an interesting discussion about mercy, a discussion that happens much later in the movie. Frodo wishes that Bilbo had just killed Gollum back when he found the ring. If he had, their problems would be over. They could hide the ring and Sauron would probably never find it. It actually comes across a little callous, just how quick Frodo is to wish death upon another, even a creature as wretched as Gollum. Specifically, Frodo says “It’s a pity that Bilbo did not stab that vile creature , when he had the chance.” And Gandalf replies “Pity? It was pity that stayed his hand. Pity, and mercy: not to strike without need. And he has been well rewarded, Frodo. Be sure, that he took so little hurt from the evil, and escaped in the end, because he began his ownership of the ring with pity.” Frodo admits he has no pity for Gollum, and that it is because of his fear. And isn’t that so true of fear, and the things attitudes it leads to. He says Gollum deserves death. “Deserves it,” Gandalf says. “I dare say he does. Many that live deserve death . And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death and judgement For even the very wise cannot see all ends. I have not much hope that Gollum can be cured before he dies, but there is a chance of it. And he is bound up with the fate of the ring. My heart tells me that he has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before the end; and when that comes, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.” I really like this conversation. As for myself, I value things like mercy and compassion, so I love what Gandalf says. At this point, Frodo just wants to give the ring to Gandalf. He doesn’t want any part in it. And Gandalf immediately refuses. It is far too great a temptation for him. The ring has great power, and if he possessed it, he would want to use that power for good. But the ring would work great evil through him. This isn’t just a question of power corrupting, something I don’t take as a given. The ring itself is evil. It has its own will. So the ring doesn’t just represent neutral power. To me, the ring has always been a pretty strong representation of temptation and sin. This is seen thematically through the whole story. Gandalf doesn’t believe he has the necessary willpower to resist that temptation when it comes, and he is very wise to recognise that, so he chooses to excercise that willpower now, and refuse the ring. Better never to possess it. But what does that say about Frodo? He wants Frodo to keep it. He worries that it will be a great burden to Frodo, of course, but I think he recognises a moral strength in Frodo that most lack, including himself. And then they realise that Sam was outside the window, and we get that awesome amusing line “I ‘aint been dropping no eaves.” I love that line. It’s not some witty one-liner, it’s just a statement that comes out of a genuine simple misunderstanding. Gandalf warns Frodo to never put the ring on. It’s use will draw the attention of Sauron’s servents. It wants to be found. And that’s chilling. Anyway, we’ll see how that goes in the future. And so, here is where my walk actually begins. Frodo and Sam leave Bag End. That’s the starting point on my walk to Mordor app. It’s taken this long just to get to the starting point. But it’s been well worth it. So within less than a page, we hit my very first milestone. Tookland. It’s just a sentance they says they passed through tookland. This is where Pippin’s family are from. From here on, the order of events is a little different between the movie and the book, but they both follow the same points. My Walk to Mordor app obviously follows the book. As they’re walking through a paddock, Sam stops. And he says “This is it. If I take one more step, it’ll be the furthest from home I’ve ever been.” I like this recognition of the significance of this moment. It’s not an expression of fear, or anxiety, about being so far from home. It’s simply an acknowledgement of something that feels significant to Sam. I understand this. I went on my first cruise a few years ago. I was 39 at the time, and I’d never been outside of Australia. This would be my very first time setting foot in another country. I felt like Neil Armstrong. I remember that morning at our first port, Noumea, the capital city of New Caledonia. I stepped slowly down the gangway toward the soil of another nation. I say soil, but it was actually concrete. It was a dreary industrial port, but that wasn’t the point. This was a significant moment for me. Unfortunately, the staff were hurrying us on to get a photo, so I didn’t really get to stop and really take in that moment, savour it, like Sam is doing here. Even before Saruman is revealed to be evil, there are hints. Isenguard looks very dark and creepy. Sauramon looks at Sauron, and his armies, and he can find no logical way to defeat him. Faced with what he believes is inevitable defeat, he believes the only option left is to join Sauron, because it is impossible to oppose him. Gandalf accuses Saruman of abandoning reason for madness. But it could be argued that Sauramon’s choice here is governed by pure reason. Cold unfeeling logic. Absolute pragmatism. Gandalf has one thing that Saruman lacks. Faith. That there are forces in this world other than the forces of evil, that even in the face of seemingly impossible odds, there is still reason to hope. That even a hobbit, could, in fact, oppose the will of Sauron. It’s illogical. It doesn’t add up mathematically. But choosing faith is a preferable option to him than giving in to the evil. And I really love that about Gandalf. Also, I gotta say, what was Tolkien thinking, naming Sauron and Saruman such similar names. And given that Saruman ends up working for Sauron. That’s really on the nose. One of the first things a modern author is taught is not to give characters names that will get confused with one another. Try not to even have two main characters whose name starts with the same letter. Then we reach my second milestone, the encounter with the black rider. The movie does an especially good job of this. It’s so creepy. Frodo senses something off about the black rider before he even appears. He is, of course, a ring wraith. It’s such a tense moment as it stops near the tree they’re hiding under and sniffs. Frodo is really tempted to use the ring to hide. Even though Gandalf warned him not to. It takes Sam to keep him from doing it. If he’d put it on, it would have all been over. The rider would have sensed the ring more strongly and kill them then and there. My next walking milestone is a meeting with the elves at the 65 km mark. That’s a fair chunk of walking. And Frodo still hasn’t even left the borders of the shire. At this point in the book, Frodo is getting worried about Gandalf, who was supposed to show up for his farewell party, but hasn’t been heard from. In the movie, the encounter with the elves is brief, Frodo and Sam spy them in the distance but don’t actually make contact. They are already aware that the elves are heading to the harbour, leaving middle earth forever. This makes me think of, and is very likely the inspiration for, the first ones from Babylon 5, going beyond the rim and leaving our galaxy. It’s a powerful trope. It’s like all the magic is leaving the world. Sam says it makes him feel sad. I get that. Sheridan expressed a similar feeling in Babylon 5. Delenn’s response was “now we make our own magic.” The last milestone I’ll talk about in this episode is Farmer Maggot’s field. In the movie, Farmer Maggot’s field is where they finally meet up with Merry and Pippin. Keep in mind that this is further than Sam has ever been from home. Keep in mind, they’ve travelled two nights and at least one and a half days. My Walk to Mordor app says it’s 98 km from Bag End. But they find Merry and Pippin casually here stealing crops. It doesn’t quite add up. Have those two travelled two days and slept under the stars two nights just to come here and steal some carrots? It sounds like they do this almost every week. By the way, it says a lot about hobbits that they so love raw vegetables they rebellious young hobbits would steal vegetables with such glee. It’s not just junk food that they take delight in. They love their vegies too. Of course, in the book, they go and have a drink with farmer maggot. The stealing of crops is just part of Frodo’s childhood backstory. The main point of all of these encounters seems to be to remind us that the black riders are dangerous and to re-emphasise that they are actively searching for Frodo. But there’s a little moment I like when Frodo says “I’ve been afraid of you and your dogs for over 30 years. It’s a pity as I have missed out on a good friend.” And that’s so true, isn’t it. Fear can make us miss out on all sorts of things, including friendships with people who may not be at all as we feared them to be. Also, I’d like to point out that while Frodo, Sam, and Pippin got to ride all the way to the ferry in Maggot’s wagon, I had to walk all that way! Anyway, that brings us to the fifth milestone on my journey. Buckleberry Ferry. So I’m going to leave it here for this time. It’s been a fun journey so far and there is plenty more to come. Next time I do a Lord of the Rings Read, Walk and Watch, we’ll meet Tom Bombadil. Until then, happy walking. Feel free to add me as a friend on the Walk To Mordor app, if you’re using it. And I’ll see you somewhere in Middle Earth. Next time I do a Lord of the Rings Read, Walk and Watch, we’ll meet Tom Bombadil. Feel free to add me as a friend on the Walk To Mordor app, if you’re using it. Next time on Nerd Heaven, in two weeks time, I’ll be talking about Star Trek Generations, that epic meeting between captains Jean-Luc Picard and James T. Kirk. I’ve got plenty to say about the movie, so I hope you’ll join me. Until then, Live Long and Prosper. Make it so.

Epic is a word oft-applied to cinema, but rarely can it have been more appropriately used than to describe the work of Peter Jackson and Philippa Boyens. For along with writing partner Fran Walsh, it is they that brought us both the Lord Of The Rings and Hobbit trilogies, not to mention King Kong. Their latest project is the equally ambitious Mortal Engines, which they wrote and produced. Based on the novel of the same name by Philip Reeve, Mortal Engines is based on the mind-boggling premise that cities of the future have been mounted on wheels and motorised in order that they can hunt and prey upon each other. The film's score is provided by Tom Holkenborg, also known as Junkie XL, a previous guest on this show.

Tres para los reyes Elfos, siete para los Señores Enanos, y nueve para los Hombres Mortales. Pero Saurón también forjó, en secreto, el Anillo Único, que tiene el poder de esclavizar toda la Tierra Media. Con la ayuda de sus amigos y de valientes aliados, el joven hobbit Frodo emprende un peligroso viaje con la misión de destruir el Anillo Único. Pero el malvado Sauron ordena la persecución del grupo, compuesto por Frodo y sus leales amigos hobbits, un mago, un hombre, un elfo y un enano. La misión es casi suicida pero necesaria, pues si Sauron con su ejército de orcos lograra recuperar el Anillo, sería el final de la Tierra Media.
