Well Jesus Christ i’m alone again, so what did you do those three days you were dead? Cause this problem’s gonna last, more than a weekend.
― Brand New, Jesus (via music-and-quotes)
Lord of the Rings is so complicated because we don’t just have canon vs not canon we have
- was-in-the-trilogy book canon
- contradicting from a different book canon
- movie-verse canon
- Tolkien mentioned it in a letter once canon
- Christopher Tolkien speculated canon
- fanon
- wikipedia accepts it as canon even though it’s not 100% sure canon
like how are you even supposed to keep track of all that
Don’t forget
- Tolkien changed his mind but you’re not sure which version you like better canon
- Early ‘mythology for England’ canon
- Tolkien implied it in a letter once canon
- Fan movie canon
- Tolkien never actually made up his mind so choose a headcanon
Also worth noting:
- Christopher Tolkien changed his mind canon
- Omissions even from the HoMe that are only found in obscure linguistic journals or tertiary literature canon
- Changing language concepts canon
- Minor works canon
