Arya popped up out of nowhere if I remember right.

That picture is always used as some kind of scientific source of size when Tolkien may have been being metaphorical with phrases like "big as a mountain".
I don't really like counting any of the stuff Tolkien didn't publish himself as canon, things put together from various notes isn't the same level of thought that was put into a finished book.
Elrond’s Dad crashed a flying boat into him and he crashed down into the ground and caused half the continent to sink into the ocean. Seriously.

Ancalagon is massive. Look at that mountain he's gripping on. Who did the good guys in the world of LOTR have that can kill something like Ancalagon. Not only that, but armies of Balrogs, other dragons, etc..
This.....is going to be super duper nerdy but....they were golden mythological Eagles and Bald mythological Eagles.America always sorts the bad guys out
We came in from the West and Eagled that Dragon
I was so excited as a teenager to find a Tolkien book I hadn't read yet....sadly that book was The Simarillion and it sucked hard. It was like a history book written like the old testament, only longer. On a related note, Farmer Giles of Ham didn't suck, was much shorter, and completely different.Is this why I love the trilogy and hobbit but the simalarion seemed so awful ?
One time I was in a thread like this, and one guy posted “this is why we never have any fucking girls here”....speaking of threads no woman will ever take part in
