Why didn’t the Eagles just take the Fellowship directly to Mordor?

1. Eagles are very proud and noble creatures who refused to get involved in the wars of men. Gandalf was only able to ride them because he was a Maiar, a semi-divine spirit, who the Lord of the Eagles, Gwaihir, owed a favor because Gandalf had once saved him from a poisoned arrow.
2. The Fellowship was supposed to travel in secret. Sauron only knew that the Ring had left Gollum’s cave for the Shire, and was now somewhere else. Large eagles flying into Mordor would have tipped off Sauron and, most importantly, the Nazgul, which no creature could out-maneuver. The Nazgul would have killed the eagles and taken the Ring to Sauron.

FUCKING THANK YOU!  When people make this stupid argument I just

I have this argument with someone about three times each year. Thank you for understanding.

Not to mention the Eagles said no. People seem to have a lot of trouble with the Eagles being able to decide for themselves.

Quibe - One Line Drawings

Cool idea by Quibe : drawing geekdom characters with one and only one line ! More heroes in the full article !

Quibe a eu une idée originale : dessiner des héros du geekdom à l’aide d’une seule ligne ! Et ça marche… Plus de héros dans la suite de l’article !

Must Reblog again because this is fucking sick ass Street art..

Someone tell me how works like this are destroying society?

I keep thinking cities should have professional art critics on the council, or urban planners and architects who are also professional art critics. And they decide, does this piece add to our city? And when it’s a ratty little tag they paint over, or hire somebody to street art over it. And when it’s not, they keep it and preserve it. Just a naïve little hope for the future…
