Ho! Tom Bombadil, Tom Bombadillo!
By water, wood and hill, by the reed and willow,
By fire, sun and moon, harken now and hear us!
Come, Tom Bombadil, for our need is near us!



What if our need is near us?

Well, yeah, I was trying to stealth it, obscurely humorous, “for fans only”.
The issue requires a separate thread.

anyone who was in Middle-earth before the coming of the Dark Lord deserves his own thread.

I’d hate to see Peter Jackson adapt Dune!! ^_^
Duke Leto would be 5 feet tall, he’d leave the Bene Gesserit out completely, have the Fremen fighting for the Harkonnens, and Paul would give into temptations he resisted in the novels. He’d completely leave out Gurney and Duncan, but accentuate Piter ^_^^_^^_^

George Lucas would give the Sandworms wings, and Paul would do some corkscrew dive onto one of them from a tall dune.

George Lucas would cast a 9-year-old to play Paul and a middle-aged Somali actor to play Thufir, and neither could act. Christopher Nolan would try to make Dune realistic while paradoxically making it too hard to understand with other dimensions and time travel and wormholes.

and Sam Raimi would have Bruce Campbell as Duncan Idaho, would have the Raimi montage when Paul suits up with the Fremen.

Hieroglyphics of Boba Fett and IG-88 would be on the walls of the palace on Arakeen ^_^

The Beast Rabban would be played by Paul Smith only to have a superimposed Hayden Christensen placed over his face ten years later.

sandworms would sound like the sarlacc.
