This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Anon didn't read the books.

Samwise goes to the undying lands after having a family, watching them become adults and a stint as the mayor of hobbiton.

I respect the movies, but the further into the story they got the more incomprehensible and arbitrary the deviations from the book became.

Yeah, it's like they skimmed a bit.

We’ve had skimmed lord of the rings movies yes, but what about semi-skimmed lord of the rings movies?
