Does this look like a amiable gesture to you? (Image: Archi Banal)

Best friends going on a hike to destroy some jewellery? Yeah, right.

This post was written with the extended editions of the films as base texts, because more minutes mean more chances to prove your homosexual coupledom.

Look, this is not a new theory: the two hobbits at the centre of The Lord of the Rings are not best friends, but in fact, a gay couple. Since Peter Jackson’s trilogy came out, and honestly even after the books came out, the subtext of this relationship has been pored over by queer fandom, the fandom that will read years of longing into a single glance.

While I’m loath to accomplish that – we’ve got a lot of lgbtq+ texts these days, we don’t really need lgbtq+ subtext too – I’m not so sure that Frodo and Sam’s partnership rests in the shadows. That’s especially true in Jackson’s trilogy, where more time is spent on this relationship than on any actual romantic relationships (Eowyn and Faramir don’t count).

So in the intere

Yeah, the Arwen existence 13 thing is terrible....

A couple people have mentioned the sexual Aragorn/Arwen/Boromir scene as something that’s ALMOST valid ) because it ends with Aragorn and Boromir having a passionate makeout session-- gay rights, etc---

BUT people were understandably so distracted by Everything Else that they missed the make known that this version of Arwen is randomly a child.

For those of you who haven’t browse it--- what happens is that Arwen goes up to Aragorn and Boromir and is like“you guys need to get along so I’ll bind you as blood brothers in a magical ritual.” Then she does what @cowboyeowyn described-- kissing a sword so that her lips bleed, then kissing both of them on the lips and then having them kiss each other.

1. wow u really wrote a justification into ur script for two grown-ass adult men to kiss a literal child

2.They wanted this shock-value moment of two men kissing, but also wanted to make sure you understood it wasn’t gay. So they added some stupid ritual where the two men kissed a literal child first so that you would understand the touch was supposed to be understood as platonic.

“I’m not male lover, it’s just a 13 year o

Lord of the Rings: 10 Things Film Viewers Wouldn't Grasp About Merry and Pippin

Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took (better known as Merry and Pippin) are incredibly close friends, not to state that they are also first cousins — Esmeralda Brandybuck, Merry's mother, happens to be Paladin Took's younger sister. Together, they make the naughtiest, yet most adorable, pair in all of Hobbiton, probably even the Shire.

Their many childhood antics notwithstanding, Merry and Pippin become important players in The Lord of the Rings storyline after "forcing" Frodo into accepting their assist and company on his quest. There are a several important facts about this pair that possess not been mentioned in the cinematic versions.

They Are (Distantly) Related To The Bagginses

Although not a very complicated character, Frodo's family tree bears more fruit than it could possibly grip. In fact, the Baggins patriarch, Balbo, had five children, each of whom produced a number of their possess offspring.

Along one line there are the male descendants (those who have retained the name fond Bilbo and his nephew), but

Queer readings of The Lord of the Rings are not accidents

[Ed. note: This essay contains discussion of homophobia and mention of suicide.]

I was 12 in 2003, when The Send back of the King was in theaters, and Frodo kissing Sam goodbye as he left Middle-earth made me sob like my heart was being ripped out, without understanding why. Outside of the reliable darkness of the theater, in the Mordor-like wasteland of middle school, the movies were synonymous with the favored insult of the time — “gay.”

Brokeback Mountain wouldn’t come out for two more years, and none of us had seen a show on the big screen where men hold each other, comfort each other, kiss each other’s foreheads. Early-2000s preteen America was a time of male lover jokes, of “no homo,” of mocking voices and slurs, and secret, punitive violence enacted in the locker room against anyone who had a whiff of otherness. In that world, the Lord of the Rings trilogy stood out as deeply serious, and therefore vulnerable.

2021 marks The Lord of the Rings movies' 20th anniversary, and we couldn't envision exploring the trilogy in just one story. So each Wednesday throughout the year, we'll go there and back again, examining how

This is a topic that has been hotly debated both in-game and on Discord, and a few weeks ago I found myself in just such a debate. (This is how it went down: one party made a joke about gay Elves. Another party immediately took offence and insisted that the mere idea of gay Elves breaks canon. And so an argument began.) The debate seemed to resolve on the conclusion that Elves can only be heterosexual because they are (to simply matters) biologically primed to conform to Tolkien’s orthodox Catholic views. However, the arguments given never sat well with me, so I wanted badly to revisit this topic, and this period in a setting much more controlled and uncomplicated to keep track of: the forums. (It only took me so prolonged because I had builds to work on.)

What I will be doing in this post is to quote all the relevant arguments, and refute them as best I can, and concede where I can’t. So-doing I will attempt to demonstrate how, despite whatever Tolkien’s have views may have bee
