I know that a lot of ppl think they're really into LOTR..... But what I want to know is how many people actually are. I want to know how many of you have read the books, and if you havn't, why you consider yourself a LOTR fan. If you have read them, what is your favorite part?

The Primary Edict-
"It means only one thing, and everything: cut. Once committed to fight, cut. Everything else is secondary. Cut. That is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. There is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. Cut. The lines are a portrayal of the dance. Cut from the void, not from bewilderment. Cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. Cut with certainty. Cut decisively, resolutely. Cut into his strength. Flow through the gaps in his guard. Cut him. Cut him down utterly. Don't allow him a breath. Crush him. Cut him without mercy to the depths of his spirit. It is the balance of life: death. It is the dance with death"

1. I didn't know there was gonna be a lotr mmorpg, who's makin it? (i'm a lil behind obviously)

2.*BUMP*, im readin Tolkien's bio, and the
reason why there r spiders in the story
(especially shelob) is basically because
Tolkien was bitten by a toxic spider
(in south-africa?) when he was little...

EDIT: 3. I think im gonna buy a Narsil-replica
:cool:

I've read The Hobbit and LOTR. Both great books. My favourite part has to do with some dead guys, Aragorn, Mumakil, and a whole lotta orcs.>:-)

I've read LotR, Hobbit, Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales

I think the shelob scene means nothing to the story

The best parts are the battles, and the heroic actions.

I read the 3 books, THe simarillion, the appendixes, the letters, and the hobbit :D Ive seen the 2 movies. My favourite part comes in book number 3 but I am not telling it because it might spoil the fun for some guys who might see it. For those who read the book, it has something to do with a king (not aragorn), gimli and three orcs :D

I've read the Hobbit, LotR, and the Silmarillion.

My favourite part is kinda wide, basically most of the Morgoth stuff in Quenta Silmarillion.

It is too hard to pick a favorite part, I don't think I could ever possibly do it. I have read The Hobbit, LOTR, Silmarillion, and Unfinished Tales. Haven't decided if I should keep going or not yet, kind of in the process of reading all these darn Star Wars books, hehe.
