A Major Modern Tolkien Fan
|
Can't Post

This is my parody of Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Modern Major-General” song. This song is titles “Major Modern Tolkien Fan I am the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan, I've read the Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, I know the kings of Gondor, and I quote the fights historical, From The War of Wrath to Pellenor, in order categorical; I’ve heard that Tom Bombadill could be metaphorical, I also do believe that Frodo and Gandalf are allegorical, I often check TORN which is usually teaming with a lot of news--- And it also has a chatroom where user discuss their various views. It also has a chatroom where users discuss their various views It also has a chatroom where users discuss their various views It also has a chatroom where users discuss their variarious views! Tolkien’s entire elvish language is quite fabulous; I know the elvish names of beings animalculous; In short, I’ve read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, I am the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan. In short, he’s read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, He is the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan! I know Middle-Earth history, King Elessar’s and the Brandybuck’s, I ace Middle-Earth quizzes, Ask me a question I will not be stuck, I quote in elegiacs all the antics of Mariodoc, Such as drinking Ent tonics as Bullroarer he did start to mock. I can tell you the names of the Valar from Manwe to Este, I also the powers of each such as Yavanna who made the trees, I know what they each sang about in Illuvatar’s song afore, And I know every detail of the creation of Valinor. And he knows every detail of the creation of Valinor. And he knows every detail of the creation of Valinor. And he knows every detail of the creation of Valinininor! Then I can write a beautiful poem in Khuzdul, in dwarvish runes, And tell you every detail of Moria, where dwarves met their doom; In short, I’ve read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, I am the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan. In short, he’s read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, He is the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan! In fact, when I know what is meant by "Tinuviel" and "Luthien", When I’ve read the Unfinished Tales over again and again, When I know every single fact that’s found in the Lost Tales, And when I know the Histories of Middle Earth so well, When I have read through every book somehow related to Tolkien, When my knowledge of his entire world is so rich that it’s golden: In short, when I have criticized PJ’s six movies, You'll say a bigger Tolkien fan has never studied so strongly You'll say a bigger Tolkien fan has never studied so strongly You'll say a bigger Tolkien fan has never studied so strongly You'll say a bigger Tolkien fan has never studied so strongongoly For my Middle-Earth knowledge, though in reading I often engage, Has only been brought down to the beginning of the fifth age; Because, I’ve read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, I am the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan. Because, he’s read The Hobbit, LOTR, and the Silmarillion, He is the very model of a major modern Tolkien fan.

I'm exhausted just reading that!

Not only was that fantastic but I learnt a new word! Welcome to TORN, TiliMithrilfist.
Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better." "Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak. Ataahua's stories

How about Elrond's version of "I am an Elvish Man."
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters, these see the works of the Lord, and His wonders in the deep. -Psalm 107
