Henry | They/Them | My depression is chronic but this ass is iconic | I am doing my absolute best :')
SO a few years ago, long before Gandalf Big Naturals was even a thing, I saw this meme and it changed my brain chemistry. Since then I have googled it several times, but never been able to find a trace of it. Alas, it has come to this, and I have been forced to re-create it myself for your viewing pleasure.
No shade @ everyone in Middle-earth but Bill and Ted could've gotten the Ring to Mount Doom and been fine
Yk what cracks me up is that the Council of Elrond isn’t even an organized event planned years in advance or anything. It’s just like…the messengers of a bunch of world leaders with a bunch of different problems coming to Elrond for advice but coincidentally they all get there at the same time,,,,
It’s hilarious. Elrond sitting them down like schoolchildren at a history lesson to explain how all their problems are connected. The random forming of the fellowship bc it’s a bunch of strangers prepared to go take a message back home but instead they get sent on a quest to save the world,,,,
Just the chaos of it all. The way literally everyone’s initial response to their problems was “let’s go ask Elrond.”
“Let’s go as Elrond” is the middle earth equivalent of “google it” and I think that’s great.
One thing that tickled me about the Barbie movie was how Gloria's husband is (imo) a 'Real World' Ken.
We see very little of him in the movie. In both of his scenes, he's trying to speak/learn Spanish. He does nothing important or if consequence in terms of the plot... But he's trying to learn a language his wife and daughter speak. He's not excelling, I'm not even sure if he's succeeding. But he is kensistently trying.
For all of the 'Real World' men who are antagonists or opponents to Barbie, El Esposo de Gloria (as he is listed in the credits) has true Kenergy.
Also (SPOILERS FROM HERE ON NOW DONT READ UNDER THE LINE IF YOU DONT WANT SPOILERS)
laughing at nandor reckoning he could ever kill guillermo when he’s literally in love with him and guillermo could best him in a fight regardless. like okay silly delusional king who makes glitter portraits and asks for him to stay while you fall asleep, whatever you say <3
