  • Strider is such a Strange Character
    Jul 6 2025
    So I am reading Lord of the Rings for the first time and I am on the Fellowship of the Ring where we FIRST get introduced to Strider. And as soon as I finished that chapter I was a bit shocked and actually had to reread it. Because the whole chapter was confusing to me with how Aragorn was acting.

  • Nicolas Cage could have been an AMAZING Aragorn
    Jul 4 2025
    In the Lord of the Rings community, there has always been this funny rumor that Nicholas Cage was offered the role of Aragorn, and had to refuse. And luckily we got Viggo Mortensen and the rest is History.

    So I just finished chapter 9 of The Fellowship of the Ring, and I’ve got to say, the Hobbits are so different from the book to the movie.

How Exciting!

Oh, I just want to be in the room with you guys! I want to tell you all what happens but it's so exciting to hear your predictions, and how close you get! I feel it's very important to remember that these books were written to grow with you from the point of being an 11 year old. As I love this series, and have read them many many time this is so fun to think back to my first time reading Harry Potter when I was 9 or 10. Listening to you guys is magical!

ps. Long Live Jim Dale!
