Gimli

And let's throw in a Balrog for kicks!

where do you get all these pictures?

i dont find isidur half as cool...even though he wa sone of the mos tcourages men, he also was one of eh most power hungry and foul, i didnt like him in the silmarillion very muhc at all

Okay, now, don't go saying lies like that. Isildur was not any more power-hungry than the average guy. In Unfinished Tales, it is writen that Isiildur, after the first wave of the Orc attack by the Gladden Fields, knew that his end was near. He therefore resolved to bring the Ring to Elrond in Imladris, where it could be brought in strength to Oroduin and destroyed. While trying to do this, however, the Ring slipped off his finger in the Anduin and made him visible. At that point he was shot by an Orc scout, and he died. The Ring slipped from his finger because it knew that Isildur was trying to destroy it, and thus it was protecting itself. Isildur was at heart a good man, as good as ever there was. But, after the apparent death of Sauron, Isildur saw no reason why the ring must also be destroyed, since it held great power. Therefore, in that state of mind, the Ring easily lulled him under its influence. This happened thus so quickly and easily only because, at that time, the will of Isildur and of the Ring were the same, even without the effect of the Ring. Isildur was depicted in the movies as far worse a person than he was, and the preconceptions provided by the movie can be difficult to get passed. Therefore, even if you then read or already had read the Silmarilion, seeing Isildur in the movie can skew your perception of Isildur. Isildur is good, a great Man and warrior, and a Great King. None greater than him have been taken by the Ring, but only because his will and the Ring's will were the same for a time, and it was thus a simple job for thr Ring to bend the will of Isildur to a greater wanting to keep the ring.

Oh, and as for the images, I just searched on Google. Simple, but effective.

Also, I got some images from www.shipofdreams.net

Check it out, if you'd like.

This thread is about Gimli? I think he's funny in TTT 😉

I like this picture 🙂

I have realized that there isn't a Gimli thread on here, or at least i've overlooked it, so i think i need to start one
Gimli is a character that is so overlooked that i think that he deserves a thread!!! He's so cool, he's the DWARF!!!! and gave me one of my favorite quotes: NOT THE BEARD

(sorry, i'm just a bit hyper) 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

yeah, funny dude... whatever... i just wanted to say that your 24 hours sig is hilarious... it's like a plan to take down michael jordan 😂

Gimli Rules!! He had the funniest lines in the movies, "That still only counts as one". But John Rhys-Davies did an excellent job as Gimli.

'There are plenty for the both of us, may the best dwarf win' is another one of my favorites

Gimli deserves some credit.

He is a dwarf
