An Introduction:

Hi there! I’m Sam; my pronouns are they/she, and I’ve been brainrotting about The Lord of the Rings!

Currently starting to create a Gigolas Grad School AU with Geologist! Gimli and University Greenhouse Keeper! Legolas

Some fun facts about me:

- I’m in my mid-20s

- I share the same MBTI type as Galadriel (according to SceenRant; INFJ)

- I’m audihd and a cripplepunk

- I named myself Sam after 3 important characters to me: Samwise Gamgee, Sam Manson (Danny Phantom), and Sam from The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Anyways, I’ll be hobbitposting quite a bit so enjoy!

:D

(AND ANOTHER THING:)

There is SO much religious (specifically christian/ catholic imagery) in the final climatic scenes of Frodo in Mordor.

And of course i know about Tolkien’s catholic inspo, but i find it so fascinating how it was incorporated into the cinematography and the specific pacing decisions in the film!

We simply don’t talk enough about how perfect the sequence that cuts over Pippin singing “Edge of Night” in The Return of the King is. It is such a wonderful display of Visual Storytelling and the editing team orchestrated a visceral and haunting experience for us as the audience. It leaves me in chills every single time, and there are so many damn layers to this scene that each time I find myself moved by something new.
