This could explicate just about any crisis relating to LotR, The Hobbit, or The Sil.:
"Alas! Woe! ...Hey, look, Eagles!" Or from the Scouring of the Shire: Ruffians with rumpled raiment ran 'round wrecking. Last edited by Rilwen Gamgee; 01-25-2005 at 03:27 PM. Reason: Adding alliteration. |

My summaries of the five books of the Silmarillion:
The Ainulindale: Melkor's musical mayhem makes middle-earth its mishaps. OR Then God said "Let there be music" and there was music. (Sorry, I realise it's a word too long...) The Valaquenta: Good things comes in sevens. The Quenta Silmarillion: Oooh! Shiny! Yuck, blood- love! Oooh! Shiny! The Akallabęth: What goes up must come down. The Rings of Power and the Third Age: See also, The Lord of the Rings.

Formendacil, what about;
"God said "Let there be music" and there was music." ? _____________________________________ Ok here’s my take on 'The Hobbit' "Dwarves want Gold. Dragon has gold. Dwarves go after Dragon." OR "Down Dwarves Drive to defeat Dragon." Here’s "The Lord of the Rings" "Ruling ring rocks rural residents" Wow, that sounds like a Newspaper headline.

This one only works for the films-
LOTR (from Frodo's POV) "Stronger, taller, wiser guy tells me not to do something, I do it." and "Stupidly happy, terror, stupidly happy, terror." or "Enter monster. Monster tries to eat me. Someone else kills monster. Enter monster. Monster tries to eat me..." From Legolas' POV "See monster. Kill it. Look good. See monster. Kill it. Look good."

Fancy fantasy featuring favorable fraternity fearlessly fighting fierce foreign foes.
Just jolly, jumbled, junior jingoism? Crivvens! Contrary, cohort: cruel claptrap cut, convivial content contained. Enjoy each element, encourage everyone!

Smith of Wooton Major: I cook better than I cook
TH: All because of a dragon. Farmer Giles of Ham: All becuse of a different dragon. COH: All because of a Dark Lord... and a dragon. LOTR: Dark Lords, fell beasts, Nazgul, spiders... and no dragons. LOTR from Treebeard's perspective: Hasty humans and wizards creating chaos.
