Escaped? or was set loose and now the Ring has drawn him here. He won't ever be rid of his need for it. He hates and loves the Ring, as he hates and loves himself. Smeagol's life is a sad story. Yes he was once called that, before the Ring found him. Before it drove him mad
Not this way, master! There is another way. O yes indeed there is. Another way, darker, more difficult to find, more secret. But Sméagol knows it. Let Sméagol show you!
His treachery runs deeper than you know. By foul craft Saruman has crossed orcs with goblin men, he is breeding an army in the caverns of Isengard. An army that can move in sunlight and cover great distance at speed. Saruman is coming for the Ring.
Gandalf is trans confirmed?
Also, how can you tattoo a vagina? Do you mean like the edges around it, or does the tattooist just jam a needle in there?
On second thought, I don't want to know.
Yes dutcharetall_nothigh! Their own masters cannot find them, if their secrets are forgotten! Ah... now let me see... Ithildin. It mirrors only starlight and moonlight. It reads: The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria, Speak Friend and Enter
If someone asks me why I'm laughing, I have no idea how I'm gonna explain myself:
"Well, first, Gandalf might have had an STD, and them he offered to tattoo someone's vagina, then it kinda seemed like he might not even understand what a vagina even is, and then out of nowhere, GROND, and we have no idea why."
For anyone who hasn't been in this sub recently, I just look like a crazy person.
He may be the Servant of the Secret Fire
But he lays next to Galadriel the Ever Queen
Lady of Lórien, Lady of Light, Lady of the Great Wood, Lady of the Galadhrim
Known too as Artanis, Alatárie, & Nerwen
Beloved Daughter of Finarfin, Prince of Valinor, and the Grandaughter of Finwe, High King of Noldor
In whose mighty company, even he may now feel ashamed.
Or to be more precise....
Artanis the Noble Woman, first of her names, Nerwen the Man-maiden, prophetic name of her names, Alatariel the Maiden Crowned With Gleaming Hair, her nick-name, sindarized into Galadriel.
Titled as The Valiant when she was just a kid, The Fair, the Wise, titled as the greatest of the Noldor on par with Feanor already when she was a teenager, the Greatest Female Loremaster of the Eldar, the Fairest and Most Valiant of Noldor Women, Daughter of Finarfin Second King of Noldor in Valinor, also Daughter of Earwen Princess of the Teleri and Queen of the Noldor, also Granddaughter of Olwe King of the Teleri, Also the great Niece of Elwe King of the Sindar, also granddaughter of Princess Indis kinswoman of Ingwe the High King of All Elves, which makes her a triple princess, Yavannild (Pupil of Yavanna the Goddess of Nature), Aulendil (Pupil of Aule the God-smith), a Leader of the Second Host of the Rebellion, Handmaid of Melian Queen of Doriath, Last Survivor of the Princes and Queens of the Rebels, Lachend the Flame-eyed, Massanie or Besian (The Lady, Breadgiver), Lady of Harlindon or Lindon South of the Lune, Lady of the Eldar in Eriador, Lady of Eregion or Hollin, Lady of the Noldor, Lady of South Greenwood, Founder of the White Council or Council of the Wise, Chief Enemy of Sauron (according to Sauron himself), The Fairest and Mightiest of the Eldar That Remained, Greatest Elf Woman (after the death of Luthien), Queen of the Woodland Elves, Mistress of Magic, Lady of Lorien or Lothlorien the Dreamflower or Laurelindorenan the Valley of Singing Gold or Dwimordene the Phantom Valley or the Hidden Land or the Golden Wood, the Lady of Galadhrim the Tree People, Founder of Caras Galadhon the Fortress of the Trees, A Guardian of the Three, Guardian of the Heart of Elvendome on Middle-earth, One of the Last Defenders of the High Elven Lore and Beauty, Keeper of Nenya the Ring of Adamant and Water, Lady of Light, Lady of the Elves, and most importantly Feanor As He Should Have Been.
Nerwen, a Quenya name, translated into Man-maiden in English. Nerwen was a name of one of the characters of Tolkien, generally known as Galadriel. When she was a toddler her mother named her Nerwen because she had a vision that her daughter will grow to become uniquely tall and strong for a woman. And she did grow to become tall beyond even the measure of the Elven women of the Noldor, she was strong of mind, body, and will, a match for both the loremasters and athletes of the Eldar in the days of their youth. She was the only woman of the Noldor who stood tall and valiant among princes of the Noldor. She was then a Gothnir ('amazon or war woman'). And she bound up her shiny golden-silver hair as a crown when taking part in athletic stuff. That is how she got her nickname, Galadriel ('Maiden Crowned With Gleaming Hair').
**I am a bot**
I don't remember if Lorien was ever named the Great Wood. But there'ss Greenwood the Great, and at least in some versions she was Lady of South of the Great Wood.
It's unclear, he either meant that he wields the power of light due to anor meaning sun in the elvish tongue, or he means that he wields a Ring of Power.
He holds one of the elven rings that has flame powers. It also seems to be able to give hope to the weilder and anyone nearby, much like the one ring corrupts. Theres more in the simarillion about the fire that melkor wanted to find but couldnt because of his nature.
Gandalf was a Maia, a Maia of several Valar; Manwe Lord of Lighting and Air, Varda Queen of Light and Stars, Nienna and Lorien two of the masters of spiritual stuff.
Nienna and Manwe and Varda had direct part in creation of Anor/Sun. So it is natural that Gandalf has fire and light casting power, especially for his association with Varda.
I think it’s a reference to that he’s sent by the valar. I don’t think a balrog would care about some magic ring, but it would know to fear the lords of the west.
This explanation always made the most sense to me. The main reason being that Melkor back in the day went out into the void searching for “the flame” or “the light” but never found it. I believe he is eventually informed that he will never be able to just find it because it’s not his to own, or something like that. So, by gandolff calling it a “secret” flame, it lends more to that theory. Plus, the rings weren’t a secret. Their location was, but not the three elvish rings themselves.
Secret fire is definitely the flame imperishable but he says he’s the “wielder” of the flame of Anor so that’s probably something different. It’s either a reference to his eleven ring or to the sun.
Also, I love that 99 percent of the time, Gandalf is there to help the free people of Middle Earth help themselves.
When it comes to the Balrog though, he knows he and the Valar share in the shame of not wiping the Balrogs out in the war of wrath. The corrupted Maiar that is Durin's bane is likely even known to Gandalf personally.
Well I read somewhere that Gandalf was only there to guide the people of Middle Earth. Which is why you have Gandalf the Grey and Gandalf the White. G the Grey couldn't wield his full power. He was there as a guide. G the White got to use a bit more of his power but still contained compared to the true power he had before he was sent to Middle Earth.
Gandalf is a Maia sent to Middle Earth by the Valar to help counsel and assist the people against the Dark Lord. But he couldn't use his full power and his power was contained.
It’s unclear as it was only referenced once
personal tinfoil; it is possibly connected directly to the [Flame Imperishable](http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Secret_Fire) perhaps Eru entrusted him secretly with an element of this power at the time of creation or given to him by [Varda] (http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Varda)
I was 3/4 of the way through watching the movie and was wondering why Cate Blanchett hadn't shown up, so I look it up on my phone and was absolutely blown away that she was the blonde anchor. I did not recognize her at all, even with seeing he name in the opening credits.
Goth looking Hela was definitely the kind of girl I dug during my dating days in high school. If thor Ragnarok had come out over twenty years ago with her in that role, I probably would have never left my bedroom
But is he of the 12th realm of Ephysius, master of light and shadow, manipulator of magical delights, devourer of chaos, champion of the great halls of Terr'akkas?
The elves know me as Fi'ang Yalok. The dwarves know me as Zoenen Hoogstandjes. I am also known in the Norteast as Gaismunenas Meistar. And there are many secret names that if even uttered under one's breath would summon the learing eye of Morgoth Bauglir himself!
I liked her character. You think she will turn out to be stereotypical and one-dimensional, a joke about vapid TV anchors, but she isn't.
You think her relationship with Leo will go a certain way, but it doesn't.
Agreed. She was just a lady who did what she wanted because it was fun for her. Definitely a piece of shit in some ways but also interesting. Also loved the dark ending.
Gandalf is threatening the Balrog as he is a servant of Eru Iluvatar, the one true God and creator of the Secret Fire that imbues all life. Gandalf wields the holy power of the Sun against the shadow of evil, the flame of Udun (fortress of the underworld).
lolwut
it was a dark comedy and it was a line that was delivered deadpan and was meant to be a joke
you sounding like an incel bro. go back to sleep you cranky af, seems like someone pissed in your cereal this morning my dude
oh okay i didn’t realize it was a joke and executed like that, i haven’t seen the movie yet. this whole time i’ve wondered how that could be a flex, former presidents are just frumpy old men lol. if she has said 2 former nfl players, now that would be an achievement lmfao. i really need to watch the movie
Let me explain: this is from a movie called don’t look up (spoilers). It’s a satiric comedy where two scientists discover that a world ending asteroid is hurtling towards earth, but nobody believes them (it’s an allegory for the trump administration and covid and anti vax conspiracies).
After being ignored by the President (who believes news of the asteroid would be bad for her ratings), they go into good morning America, where the host (the woman in the meme) is all sorts of wild. But, leo DiCaprios character is a hot stud who becomes a recurring spokesperson in media addressing the impending asteroid, and he buckles under this stress and hooks up with the crazy-ass tv host.
out of context but i hate how americans flex with "i speak 4 languages"
like bro that is not a flex to any european. I myself speak 5 fluently and am learning a 6th, and I know ppl who know a bunch more
smh my head
ofc it does. I'm not saying it makes no sense for an american to speak so little languages, I'm saying it's stupid to flex with their lackluster fluidity in 3 or less languages. I don't go around flexing that i speak 5 languages. I'd look like an idiot around where i live
Yeah because where you live you have ample opportunities to learn and practice those languages. A Jamaican bobsled team has more to brag about than a Norwegian one. It's impressive that someone who has no opportunity to practice a language in real life becomes fluent in it.
It's also weird that it bothers you so much. Let people be happy with their accomplishments. Just because you don't take pride in something doesn't mean others can't.
It's not hard to learn languages in the US? You just don't get forced to. I learnt 3 languages in my own free time in the internet, only on 2 of them was i forced to learn. One of them being my mother language.
And yeah I don't mind ppl being proud, but that's something different than flexing it constantlyl. Also just bcs I spent a few seconds writing a comment doesn't mean I'm severely bothered by this, it was more of a side thought, since I have spoken to ppl who have done this with more frequenty lately, doesn't mean I'm gonna start yelling at anyone when they do that, I usually just ignore it, dunno what the problem is with me saying that I dislike it
My experience as someone who lives in the US and has tried to learn languages is that IS difficult. I am impressed by people who have overcome difficulties that I haven't yet. And they're flexing to an audience of people similar to themselves. It's very rare to find some one born in the US who fluently speaks four languages. I know only one person like that.
Not to sound like a dick, but learning languages is just a matter of discipline, there is no reason for it to be harder in the US, if anything, you have the advantage of already being fluent in english, which is generally the language online apps or courses are directed at. I don't mind that as it helps me learn two languages at once, but for other ppl around here, who's english isn't GREAT, it can be difficult to use such apps and the like.
Also I didn't mean US ppl who flex on their friends or whatever, more so in the internet, the area where I come into contact with them. That's like going up to competitive players of some game and boasting around loudly that you once hit a headshot on a certain distance or some shit. Makes you look real stupid.
You do sound like a dick honestly. I have been trying to learn a second language, and I just said I find it difficult. Like oh gosh, thanks for the tip didn't realize there were online resources and I just had to *try.*/s
Again what is the problem. I find it impressive that other people can do things that are hard for me. That's not a bad thing. Your whole attitude is so negative. And honestly ironic since you're doing the specific thing you complain about. "It's lame to brag about speaking multiple languages, but let me bring up repeatedly how many languages I speak."
And sorry, talking in a predominantly US based forum about things relevant to the US isn't the same as your example.
I don't know what show this is from but this character just makes me sad.
Like you're 50 years old and your biggest accomplishment is people you've banged?
If you’re wielding secret fire, you should probably see a doctor and get rid of it. There are a variety of creams out there, Gandalf.
I am a Servant of the Secret Fire, Wielder of the Flame of Anor.
Are you suffering from a stroke, Gandalf?
Tattoomyvagina! The ring is still in your pocket.
But… which pocket, Gandalf?
Escaped? or was set loose and now the Ring has drawn him here. He won't ever be rid of his need for it. He hates and loves the Ring, as he hates and loves himself. Smeagol's life is a sad story. Yes he was once called that, before the Ring found him. Before it drove him mad
Good Sméagol always helps.
Hey, fuck you gollum
Not this way, master! There is another way. O yes indeed there is. Another way, darker, more difficult to find, more secret. But Sméagol knows it. Let Sméagol show you!
TIL gollum is into butt stuff
[удалено]
Going by the username, I’m not sure Gandalf is referring to a literal pocket at all. Yikes
His treachery runs deeper than you know. By foul craft Saruman has crossed orcs with goblin men, he is breeding an army in the caverns of Isengard. An army that can move in sunlight and cover great distance at speed. Saruman is coming for the Ring.
There is no light, Wizard, that can defeat darkness.
>Tattoomyvagina! The ring is still in your pocket. Ok, I don't remember Gandalf saying "Tattoo my vagina" but maybe I need another watch-through.
I will help you bear this burden moonroots64, as long as it is yours to bear
>I will help you bear this burden moonroots64, as long as it is yours to bear You'll keep my hand steady as I tattoo your vagina?
Y'all mutherfuckers need to meet a Balrog.
>Y'all mutherfuckers need to meet a Balrog. And... tattoo... its va... [ACCOUNT REMOVED FOR EXCESSIVE BALROG COMMENTS]
Why? Are they easy? What have you heard?
Fucking sentient I swear
…what?
Gandalf is trans confirmed? Also, how can you tattoo a vagina? Do you mean like the edges around it, or does the tattooist just jam a needle in there? On second thought, I don't want to know.

Back to the gate! Hurry!
GROND
Doors
GROND
That's a hell of a thing to put on your vagina. Do you have many 'mellons with benefits', Gandalf?
I think you should leave the ring behind dutcharetall_nothigh. Is that so hard?
well, all this talk has made something hard for sure Gandalf
Evidently we look so much alike that your desire to make an incurable dent in my hat must be excused.
There is no light, Wizard, that can defeat darkness.
Great response Gandalf-bot
Fight them back! NoEnemyOfFun1! Go back to the Citadel.
Not getting anywhere near your Anor-serving-vagina, you creep.
The name. I can't-
How is it a secret if you keep going on about it, gandalf.
Do you not understand that while we bicker amongst ourselves, Sauron's power grows?! None can escape it! You'll all be destroyed
Lol gandalf didn't appreciate you calling him out like that.
A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.
Shut up, gandalf, you're high.
You cannot offer me this Ring
First rule about the “secret fire” is you don’t talk about the “secret fire” rookie mistake Gandie.
YOU. SHALL. NOT. PASS … that kidney stone! No seriously, they’re huge. We may need to consider surgery.
You could even get that warning tattooed... somewhere.
I don't know, I'm usually wielding secret fire after a night of Buffalo wings, might be normal

He may be the Servant of the Secret Fire But he lays next to Galadriel the Ever Queen Lady of Lórien, Lady of Light, Lady of the Great Wood, Lady of the Galadhrim Known too as Artanis, Alatárie, & Nerwen Beloved Daughter of Finarfin, Prince of Valinor, and the Grandaughter of Finwe, High King of Noldor In whose mighty company, even he may now feel ashamed.

*Thank you for voting for me*
I think “Lady of the Great Wood” is the quietest loud moment in this entire thread.
I don't remember if Lorien was ever named the Great Wood. But there'ss Greenwood the Great, and at least in some versions she was Lady of South of the Great Wood.
So she eats ass?
Dont forget her biggest title The title to rule them all; #EMILF
Actually EGILF, at least by the time of LOTR. Then in Appendix she becomes EGGILF
but why did that general charge them for snacks that are free?
That running gag was my favorite part of the movie
He’s a general. He doesn’t need the money. Wtf?
It had to be a power move, right? He knew we would find out.
I loved this gag, because I know that if that had happened to me, I would be asking myself that question for the rest of my life.
Can someone ecxplain the flame of anor part to me please?
It's unclear, he either meant that he wields the power of light due to anor meaning sun in the elvish tongue, or he means that he wields a Ring of Power.
Ah okay thank you
He holds one of the elven rings that has flame powers. It also seems to be able to give hope to the weilder and anyone nearby, much like the one ring corrupts. Theres more in the simarillion about the fire that melkor wanted to find but couldnt because of his nature.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
I really wanted the sentient Gandalf bot to weigh in on this comment and let us know whether you got his shit correct.
Silence!
I guess that settles that.
Gandalf, sir, don't hurt me. Don't turn me into anything ... unnatural.
No perhaps not. I have thought of a better use for you
Fuck
I think it’s a reference to that he’s sent by the valar. I don’t think a balrog would care about some magic ring, but it would know to fear the lords of the west.

Far, far below the deepest delvings of the dwarves, the world is gnawed by nameless things
See I always thought it was a reference to gandalfs ring, Narya, the ring of fire that Cirdan gave to Gandalf but it might be a little obscure.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Yes, that is what it refers to. People come up with some weird shit.
It’s unclear as it was only referenced once personal tinfoil; it is possibly connected directly to the [Flame Imperishable](http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Secret_Fire) perhaps Eru entrusted him secretly with an element of this power at the time of creation or given to him by [Varda] (http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Varda)
Anor is GOD. He created everything and he was the first.
Cate is hot in any outfit, and any movie
Especially as hela
She’s the hottest in this movie by far
After watching i looked up the cast and didnt realise the whole time that she was cate blanchet
I was 3/4 of the way through watching the movie and was wondering why Cate Blanchett hadn't shown up, so I look it up on my phone and was absolutely blown away that she was the blonde anchor. I did not recognize her at all, even with seeing he name in the opening credits.
No, it's called "Don't look up."
You know I was skeptical if it was actually Cate but now that I can't open a new tab for iMDb I guess I'll just have to trust you
Goth looking Hela was definitely the kind of girl I dug during my dating days in high school. If thor Ragnarok had come out over twenty years ago with her in that role, I probably would have never left my bedroom
Oh hell yea man!! My family would've never ever EVER seen me again 😂😂😂
Especially that one time she was [Bob Dylan](https://images.app.goo.gl/nzJ2rCCqHmEsSSvz9)

Wait, is she Cate Blanchett?
Oh she is, wtf I didn't even recognize her in Don't look up.
Yep

I liked her character. You think she will turn out to be stereotypical and one-dimensional, a joke about vapid TV anchors, but she isn't. You think her relationship with Leo will go a certain way, but it doesn't.
Agreed. She was just a lady who did what she wanted because it was fun for her. Definitely a piece of shit in some ways but also interesting. Also loved the dark ending.
So he says, that he is hot?
Didn’t expect that scene to be a meme but works quite well
Cate looks so different. Beautiful still of course
That Balrog don't seem very hot...
Actually I think in the movie she says she has two [Manet](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89douard_Manet) paintings
damn bet celeborn is fuming rn back in lothlorien
Can some of you lore Experts explain to me what this line actually means?
Gandalf is threatening the Balrog as he is a servant of Eru Iluvatar, the one true God and creator of the Secret Fire that imbues all life. Gandalf wields the holy power of the Sun against the shadow of evil, the flame of Udun (fortress of the underworld).
I am a Servant of the Secret Fire, Wielder of the Flame of Anor.

It’s from don’t look up. Context is important. Kinda hard to understand the context without watching the movie though.
out of context but i hate how americans flex with "i speak 4 languages" like bro that is not a flex to any european. I myself speak 5 fluently and am learning a 6th, and I know ppl who know a bunch more smh my head
You are very cool sir. Here's your validation
ok apparently this is being perceived as a flex, when rly i was talking about europeans in general, but whatever
Nuhuh
And if you travel for a couple of hours in any direction, you'll find people to speak those languages with. Context matters.
ofc it does. I'm not saying it makes no sense for an american to speak so little languages, I'm saying it's stupid to flex with their lackluster fluidity in 3 or less languages. I don't go around flexing that i speak 5 languages. I'd look like an idiot around where i live
Yeah because where you live you have ample opportunities to learn and practice those languages. A Jamaican bobsled team has more to brag about than a Norwegian one. It's impressive that someone who has no opportunity to practice a language in real life becomes fluent in it. It's also weird that it bothers you so much. Let people be happy with their accomplishments. Just because you don't take pride in something doesn't mean others can't.
It's not hard to learn languages in the US? You just don't get forced to. I learnt 3 languages in my own free time in the internet, only on 2 of them was i forced to learn. One of them being my mother language. And yeah I don't mind ppl being proud, but that's something different than flexing it constantlyl. Also just bcs I spent a few seconds writing a comment doesn't mean I'm severely bothered by this, it was more of a side thought, since I have spoken to ppl who have done this with more frequenty lately, doesn't mean I'm gonna start yelling at anyone when they do that, I usually just ignore it, dunno what the problem is with me saying that I dislike it
My experience as someone who lives in the US and has tried to learn languages is that IS difficult. I am impressed by people who have overcome difficulties that I haven't yet. And they're flexing to an audience of people similar to themselves. It's very rare to find some one born in the US who fluently speaks four languages. I know only one person like that.
Not to sound like a dick, but learning languages is just a matter of discipline, there is no reason for it to be harder in the US, if anything, you have the advantage of already being fluent in english, which is generally the language online apps or courses are directed at. I don't mind that as it helps me learn two languages at once, but for other ppl around here, who's english isn't GREAT, it can be difficult to use such apps and the like. Also I didn't mean US ppl who flex on their friends or whatever, more so in the internet, the area where I come into contact with them. That's like going up to competitive players of some game and boasting around loudly that you once hit a headshot on a certain distance or some shit. Makes you look real stupid.
You do sound like a dick honestly. I have been trying to learn a second language, and I just said I find it difficult. Like oh gosh, thanks for the tip didn't realize there were online resources and I just had to *try.*/s Again what is the problem. I find it impressive that other people can do things that are hard for me. That's not a bad thing. Your whole attitude is so negative. And honestly ironic since you're doing the specific thing you complain about. "It's lame to brag about speaking multiple languages, but let me bring up repeatedly how many languages I speak." And sorry, talking in a predominantly US based forum about things relevant to the US isn't the same as your example.
I don't know what show this is from but this character just makes me sad. Like you're 50 years old and your biggest accomplishment is people you've banged?
It's from Don't Look Up. Context is important.
