In your best professional opinion

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!
TOM IS AN ANOMOLY and Like neo he will ultimatley destroy middle earth????? MABEY no

just kidding i have no f-ing clue!!!!

THATS IT U GOT IT!!!!!!!! THE PROBLEM IS SOLVED!

No offense, but come on, we'll never find out. You would have to ask J.R.R. Tolkien or Christopher Tolkien!

Yeah...man...Tom Bombadil also comes up in one of the side books, was is the Silmarillion or the Unfinished Tales? Well all I know is he's a resident of the Old Forest with Goldberry and so we just need Exa or someone in here.

Well, I'm reading the silmarillion right now, so i'll tell you if I find anything. One more question... Isn't this like the 4th Tom Bombadil thread in 2 days? 🤨

lets just send a letter to which ever tolkein is alive and ask him! 😱 its a great idea!

I have my own theory, Tom Bombadil is TOLKIEN!!! Tom says he was there before the first Acorn, before the elves came west. He says he was there when there was just darkness. Hmmm that sounds like he was there before anything, much like a story before its written, The author is there seeing everything evolve and come into exitence. It would be a very clever way to show Tolkien watching his own work become a reality and give him a perspective from within the world of middle EArth!! Anotehr hint is that Tom puts on the ring of power and doesnt become invisible, nor is he affected by the power of the ring, He gives it back to Frodo with a smile. Now nobody from middle earth could resist the ring exept possibly the maker, Tolkien!!,
this is %100 my opinion and please feel free to disagree, I would love to hear some others opinions on the matter

I AGREE!!!!

oh and binga bonga, this may be the forth thread about tom in a day or two, however its obviously one of the most interesting points in the story, hence 3 pages on this post in less than an HOUR!!!!!!!!

^^NO!^^

i have just been reading all this thread and so many people are saying my beautiful information is all wrong, well damn you itrs not, he made that disguise AFTER becoming the witchking because he wanted to feel good and kind and helpful SOMETIMES,

here that AFTER he became the witchking, so yes, he would have been a lord of men at one point

he would not take the ring as....

1. that would mean he would have to reveal himself, atake the ring to sauron (it is stated they would not keep the ring as "they are in no way decieved as to the real lordship of the ring"😉

2. if he did reveal himself he could no longer transform into tom bombadil and therefore never feel happy or good again

and cowboy its not, mine got 3 pages in HALF an hour so damn you, damn you all who do not believe my theory

( yes i am aware that the chances are slim of this being true, but its somethinmg for me to believe and have faith in, and ive never had that before, so excuse me, plus it sets me apart from people in my beliefs)

no one understands what you are trying to say, your atempt is worthless and piontless, you may aswell stop here

whos attempt mine? 🙁 AWW well look at my last post to see why im sticking by it

yes your attempt, no one belives it. you would have noticed so if you did read the last couple pages

i did read them, i dont care what other people think about it, im standing by it, i mean what would the world be like if everyone acted, lived, thought the same way, sure we would have world peace, but wheres the fun in that lol,

if everyone liked the same stuff, who would decide who liked what? whose personality would they follow? the fool, or the cool person? in this here thread your point of veiw, truthful as it may be, is the fool, therefore good luck trying to find followers. but i am here, and i still think the witchking is tom bombadil.

I think that it is a good theory. I don't personally belive it. For many solid reasons of my own. But none the less it is a good sound theory.

its a solid theory, thank you, and i find it just a lottle bit fun to believe, now if this turns serious il not defend it till the end, because it is wrong but until that day, long like tom bombadil of angmar, and if none of you will accept that then so be it

i just said i accepted it 😛
