Cast it into the fire! Destroy it..ISILDUR!!
"No!"
But its so delicious and flavorful. I think Ill have another bite.
*munch*
Who was in the wrong here?
>me when my bro whispers a funny in my ear during a serious event
If Elrond threw Isildur into the fire all could have been avoided.
NOOOOO Destroy it!
Isildur. It's not fair to compare King to Rowling just to insult the latter. Even if he isn't a fine artist he pumps out original work after work with heavy cultural impact. Rowling, on the other hand, is a literal one hit wonder. Her wizarding world is the only good thing she ever created, and any illusion of charm it has completely evaporates when you put it in an American setting rather than a British one, showing that half of the mystique with foreign audiences comes just from its Britishness.
I remember when I was like 8 I would always wonder why he didn't just run up and push him in if it was so important.
So why didn't he?
Also I asked my Dad why the younglings didn't just stab Anakin in the dick (since they had lightsabres as well) and he said that for all we know they did and he just killed them anyway. It was a funny joke at the time but now I always picture Darth Vader without a dick.

Come sit here and talk to your dear old dad.
Isildur was a hulking superchad
Yeah I dunno I guess he didn't fully get the ring either and just thought it wasn't worth killing a friend over.
>Why yes, I do wish an elf would run up on me with the ring or power and try some magic shit.

>you weren’t being ironic
This was one of the early moments of Hackson. In the books Elrond wasn't really aware of the ring's true natute at the time, and never went up Mount Doom with Isildur. Isildur took it as weregild for the death of his father and no more was really said of it.
This, but ironically.

>Bitchboy elf still wasn't strong enough to just push him into the volcano
I've been listening to the audiobook recently, I'm at the forest just outside Crickhollow.
It is one of the most exquisitely well-written, beautiful texts of all time. You know that old saying, that bad writing is simple subjects explained complexly, and great writing is complex subjects explained simply? It's truly correct, and it's a testament to Tolkien's mastery of language that he evokes such emotion and creates such a vivid world using relatively simple language. All the Hobbits are endearing in their own way, and even the tedium of speaking to old relatives you don't like is evocative and, in its own way, beautiful.
he literally just describes terrain and how pretty elves are in words nobody uses for 1000 pages

This. We just fought a huge fucking war for the fate of man and elfkind. Idgaf if its the king himself, push that faggot into the lava and say he tripped.
Isildur is certainly superhuman, but elves are even more superhuman and he wouldn't stand a chance against elrond.
if elrond pushed isildur into the lava there would have been a war between humans and elves
What is this even referencing
Yea Forums has shit taste in books
The delicious any time snack that is a Dunkin' Donuts donut. Once you pick it up you just can't stop - it's that good.
