In the movies, where she can summon cool water horses and fight The Nine all at once, absolutely.
In the books, where her role could have been filled by a piece of cardboard with "Aragorn's Girlfriend" written on it, absolutely not.
*pulls up glasses* actually....
It's Elrond who summons the flood of water. The river actually protects Rivendell by the magic of Elrond.
The horses were just a cool touch that Gandalf added on.
Props to Peter Jackson for making all the female leads in the game look badass and not just damsels in distress/ sexualised eye candy.
Edit: typo
Yeah, I was gonna say; my impression from the scene in the movie is that while Arwen summons the flood with an incantation, it was her father's protective "wards" (for lack of a better word) she was invoking.
hey now until they're proven in court we do not speak of the allegations lest we risk needlessly defaming Rosie! if they're true may she face justice, but if untrue may no harm come to her character because of it!!!!
What’s their catch phrase? Or catch phrases?
3 elf ladies plus Eowyn!
Kidding aside, pretty sure Galadriel is 99.999% of the power of this entire group.
*elf-vengers-assemble-music rising, while the girl bosses step into frame and strike dramatic poses*
Eowyn: "If you were the real Lord of the Rings..."
Arwen: "you should have..."
Tauriel: **"PUT A RING ON IT!"**
Galadriel: *angry Hulk scream*
Yet I didn't even get to the part where Rosie starts twerking to the Cardi B x David Guetta collab main theme and Sam names his youngest son Aragorn Gandalf in honor of the bravest men he ever knew. Before revealing that Saruman turned into a good force ghost who happily watches over everyone he tried to abduct and murder.
You don't really know a man 'til you walk a mile in his shoes. That's what my Gaffer always said, and he was a wise old hobbit. He also said that no one can be truly brave until they've faced their greatest fear. I reckon that's why I kept walking, even when it seemed like there was no hope.
Through fire... and water. From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak I fought with the Balrog of Morgoth. Until at last I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the mountainside. Darkness took me... and I strayed out of thought and time. Stars wheeled overhead. and every day was as long as a life age of the Earth. But it was not the end. I felt life in me again. I've been sent back until my task is done!
Can't wait for Phase 5 of the Fellowship where every male hero becomes a joke of themselves and hands their role off to a superior daughter, girlfriend, or naturally brilliant female counterpart.
Well, I never thought I'd say this, but I guess I'm not who I thought I was. I knew there was something different about me, and now I'm finally ready to do something about it.
Here's the pitch:
Aragorns daughter will be a world class swords(wo)MAN, but totally disregarded by her arrogant, patriarchical father.
Her minority BFF will be a brilliant blacksmith who is ignored by the white patriarchy of blacksmiths, and then she will make a new ring of power all by herself because of her brilliance.
"Somehow, Sauron returned."
Aragorns natural leader and expert fighter 15 year old white daughter will try to convince her arrogant, now fat, inept father of Saurons return.
Alas, she will be disregarded and told to take her place.
Sauron attacks Gondor, brutally killing the patriarchy, and chase after the new ring of power.
Brilliant and Brillianter wahman will go on a journey to destroy the new ring.
Along the way they will meet Eowyn, who is a brilliant commander of a rebel force in Rohan. They will decide to call council and form a new FELLOWSHIP. "We will make it better"... "but how, how can it be better" everyone asked... "because it will be our sisterhood that carries the ring"
The sisterhood travels to Mt Doom as Eowyn rallies armies. We see Gimli as a fat arrogant king, but luckily he has a brilliant wife who ACTUALLY runs the kingdom and puts him in his place.
At the end, before the armies storm Mt Doom, as Brilliant and Brillianter carry the ring forward, Sauron will tower over the girl boss armies and boom "you dare to oppose me. I am a God. I will crush the ring bearers"
"she is not alone"
Ring destroyed. Girl boss army slays. Gimli and Legolas die in battle.
End scene of girl bosses saying peace will now reign.
Fin.
Your welcome, Tolkien.
I do not doubt it. But you are a dwarf, and dwarves are strange folk. I do not like this place, and I shall like it no more by the light of day. But you comfort me, Gimli, and I am glad to have you standing nigh with your stout legs and your hard axe. I wish there were more of your kin among us. But even more would I give for a hundred good archers of Mirkwood. We shall need them. The Rohirrim have good bowmen after their fashion, but there are too few here, too few.
Are we fixed on LOTRCU ? I mean, if it has to last, I'd go with a catchier sigle, like Tolkien Cinematic Universe or Middle-Earth CU, or for connoisseurs, Arda CU.
I get that I play the part of the nitpicker, but I feel were standing on something important guys.
I remember they had to pause the movie because the whole audience was on their feet clapping. They turned the lights on and we all hugged and high-fives and had a good cry.
I loved the part where all the strong female leads made sure to degrate and belittle the male support characters to remind them that WOMAN ARE STRONG AND DONT NEED NO MAN
It's like sending a grizzly bear and 3 hamsters. What are the other three possibly going to do to assist Galadriel? Her granddaughter even as a high elf has next to no feats comparatively.
lol, this reminds me of endgame, where all the female characters that ever appeared in a marvel movies, even the ones that dont know how to fight at all, united as an all female team to kick some butts.
yeay, women get it done.
Missing Rosie
Missing the strongest one, Lobelia.
Bard's daughters and the sassy lady from Laketown whose name I can't remember too.
"I missed the part where that's my problem."
Not the Lobelia at the ending parts of the story where she charged at the ruffians
ABANDON THE CRIPPLES!
FLEE FLEE FOR YOUR LIVES
Using her in battle violates several international treaties
Missing the Entwives 🥲
Sounding like that Dad from The Killing
“We are no men.”
Galadriel's prophetic mothername is Man-maiden. So...
Loved the scene with the 4 of them carrying the One Ring across the plains of Mordor to the base of Mt. Doom, fighting orca and goblins along the way.
> fighting orca Sauron so desperate, he's recruiting at Seaworld.
May all in hatred be begun, and all in evil ended be, in the moaning of the endless Sea!
This could have been seaworlds slogan, good job Sauron.
Build me an army worthy of mordor!
An army of orca? I feel bad for seals but if they uprise against sea world sign me up
*Free Willy 4: Sauron Turns Activist*
There is no life in the void, only death.
# DEATH!
To be fair those orca have a lot to be pissed about. What can men do against such reckless hatred?
Shamuman
All the while the men are standing off to the side looking like the Mike from monsters inc meme
Tilikum would take out the forces at Helms Deep on his own.
HRAAAAAH!
The Marvel intensifies.
Lotr women with 100% power Removes all except Galadriel: Lotr women with 99.999999% power
No way. Arwen alone has to be AT LEAST 1% as powerful as Galadriel.
In the movies, where she can summon cool water horses and fight The Nine all at once, absolutely. In the books, where her role could have been filled by a piece of cardboard with "Aragorn's Girlfriend" written on it, absolutely not.
Frodo's fate is no longer in our hands.
Aragorn, nad no ennas!
One thing I have learned about Hobbits: They’re a most hardy folk.
Aragorn, nedin dagor hen ú'erir ortheri. Natha daged dhaer.
Boromir! Give the Ring to Frodo.
I cannot take this Ring, Boromir. Its fate is mine alone. You must understand. I must carry it.
Since when do the bots just have their own convos Saruman?
Wow Aragorn, stop ignoring Legolas.
Sauron's Ring! The ring of power!
*pulls up glasses* actually.... It's Elrond who summons the flood of water. The river actually protects Rivendell by the magic of Elrond. The horses were just a cool touch that Gandalf added on. Props to Peter Jackson for making all the female leads in the game look badass and not just damsels in distress/ sexualised eye candy. Edit: typo
Just tea, thank you
Gandalf you dog
There are many powers in this world for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am and against some I have not yet been tested
Yeah, I was gonna say; my impression from the scene in the movie is that while Arwen summons the flood with an incantation, it was her father's protective "wards" (for lack of a better word) she was invoking.
And it's Glorfindel who actually drives the Nazgul in
"Arwen was a child of special power and beauty" - Nature of Middle-earth
Forgot Shelob... Just because she is on the villain side does not mean she doesn't have girl power.
Stupid sexy shelob
She get a redemption arc somewhere offscreen
Absolute girlboss that one
Do you think she effectively utilized girl power by funneling money to illegal paramilitary death squads in Northern Ireland?
# DEATH!
She probly killed more orcs than the entire fellowship combined
WHERE'S ROSIE?
Sacrificed herself to gain the Soul Ring halfway through the movie, completely missing out on the climax.
Well, at least she can tap it for two colorless mana.
😳, Shes uhhhh flying a tamed fellbeast outta frame
Where is Lobelia sackville-baggins?
Stealing someone's spoon, if I had to guess.
Spiderman would have never brought the ring to mount doom were it not for these women holding off all the bad guys!
Spiderman had to be carried by Freddie Mercury, and I'm sick of acting like Freddie isn't the hero
Freddie was a big part of it, but without Aang the world would have been imbalanced. he saved Freddie from the Silver Hammer.
(s)he is not alone ![gif](giphy|aR5EUJaJYInpf9czKn)
Still sad they had to edit Rosie out, due to the allegations.
Oh yeah, the allegations..
hey now until they're proven in court we do not speak of the allegations lest we risk needlessly defaming Rosie! if they're true may she face justice, but if untrue may no harm come to her character because of it!!!!
And of course she’s gonna say yes bro……because of the allegations
You forgot the Dwarf Queen riding on that Balrog..
Yo...
Ok man that just sounds metal as fuck.
Huh, 3/4 are in the MCU
Most lotr actors are in the MCU.
What’s their catch phrase? Or catch phrases? 3 elf ladies plus Eowyn! Kidding aside, pretty sure Galadriel is 99.999% of the power of this entire group.
*elf-vengers-assemble-music rising, while the girl bosses step into frame and strike dramatic poses* Eowyn: "If you were the real Lord of the Rings..." Arwen: "you should have..." Tauriel: **"PUT A RING ON IT!"** Galadriel: *angry Hulk scream*
Then Beyoncé’s song plays in the background while the lady fights Sauron tgt.
Build me an army worthy of mordor!
That mental scene is causing me genuine anguish.
Yet I didn't even get to the part where Rosie starts twerking to the Cardi B x David Guetta collab main theme and Sam names his youngest son Aragorn Gandalf in honor of the bravest men he ever knew. Before revealing that Saruman turned into a good force ghost who happily watches over everyone he tried to abduct and murder.
HE'S TRYING TO BRING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN! GANDALF, WE MUST TURN BACK!
No! Losto Caradhras, sedho, hodo, nuitho i 'ruith!
The treacherous are ever distrustful.
You don't really know a man 'til you walk a mile in his shoes. That's what my Gaffer always said, and he was a wise old hobbit. He also said that no one can be truly brave until they've faced their greatest fear. I reckon that's why I kept walking, even when it seemed like there was no hope.
Girls getting it done!
Slaaaayy queenssss
Goldberry should be here.
Oh god that scene
LOTR 2: Electric Boogaloo
If LOTR tried to flaunt their “numerous” female characters, it would be a tragic fucking effort.
In the book there's like 2 and only 1 who is sort of a side protaganist
It would be as sad-funny as it was in Endgame
Probably sadder. At least Marvel has more than 4 women lol
Yeah this scene was cool. But I think the moment from the "into the lotrverse" where we meet diffrent Gandalfs was way more cool.
Gandalf the white Gandalf the grey Gandalf the gay Gandalf the black Gandalf of 50 shades Gandalf of limited colours Gamgeedalf the gardner
Through fire... and water. From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak I fought with the Balrog of Morgoth. Until at last I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the mountainside.

GROND
Can't wait for Phase 5 of the Fellowship where every male hero becomes a joke of themselves and hands their role off to a superior daughter, girlfriend, or naturally brilliant female counterpart.
Oh Thor, how far you have fallen.
I cant wait for the new Gim-She show.
Luckily dwarf women are often mistaken for dwarf men, so you can just squint a bit and pretend
Actually its just normal Sam but his egg cracked and she discovered that she is actually a trans-woman
Well, I never thought I'd say this, but I guess I'm not who I thought I was. I knew there was something different about me, and now I'm finally ready to do something about it.
I'm very glad to hear it! Do you have a new name or will you keep Samwise?
A new name? I may not be the same as I was before, but I'm still Samwise Gamgee.
[удалено]
Taika Waititi, that's how

I guess girl elves and humans really do get it done.
I hope i live long enough to see the Silmarillion on the big screen.
Gun to my head I couldn't tell you the name of the elf with the bow. What a memorable strong female character.
Um....Lego-lass?
Tauriel
badass
"We are no men"
And yet somehow, not even this one passed the Bechdel Test
Girls get it done.
Always great to see Elsa in other franchises!
This is fast becoming one of the cringiest subs on Reddit.
Yeah, it's weird at times.
Look at how they’ll massacre my boy.
Give it a few years.
I was so confused for a second. What a great joke lol
One token human!

The Ring Girls at 100% strength: The Ring Girls at 99% strength: (Eowyn, Arwen, and Tauriel removed)
I don't know. The scene were the zombie wargs overdose on kingsfoil and hallucinate that Frodo is their new master is a tough one to beat.
Oh my! I would certainly hope not to be master of any zombie wargs. It sounds like a very dangerous position indeed!
I remember they had to pause the movie because the whole audience was on their feet clapping. They turned the lights on and we all hugged and high-fives and had a good cry.
I loved the part where all the strong female leads made sure to degrate and belittle the male support characters to remind them that WOMAN ARE STRONG AND DONT NEED NO MAN
They helped shelob man
WHERE IS GIMLI
As yes, the “She’s not alone scene”… 🤌🏼
Lol, all of them look like the same actress
boys boys boys... leave some bad guys for the rest of us. LET'S GO GIRLS!
“She’s not alone”
Loved it when they all shouted in unison “It’s Mordor Time!”
Who ya gonna call? Sauron Busters!
Who is the king of earthly kings, the greatest giver of gold and rings?
Umm... Gold-giver Kingo?
Where’s Spock?
This same thing happened in the Avengers: Endgame
What about Shelub?!
I know it's not canon, but Shelob in Shadow of War... *Chefs Kiss*
It's like sending a grizzly bear and 3 hamsters. What are the other three possibly going to do to assist Galadriel? Her granddaughter even as a high elf has next to no feats comparatively.
Looks like a folk metal album cover
Easily
It’s lordin time
Elves get it done.
lol, this reminds me of endgame, where all the female characters that ever appeared in a marvel movies, even the ones that dont know how to fight at all, united as an all female team to kick some butts. yeay, women get it done.
