good pic.
The setting he is in looks like ME setting, especially the bit where the hobbits first see the black rider when they hide under the tree roots.
My sister said that as we looked at this photo.

I wish I had his imagination and that I could invent beautiful languages too...I wonder if he would have liked the movies...I don't think he would have liked the changes that much, because he was upset with the guy who translated his books into swedish (Åke Ohlmarks) when he translated it poorly (according to Tolkien who actually could speak swedish)...so I think he was a bit of a perfectionist...(Åke Ohlmarks was offended by Tolkien and later wrote some bad things about him)...I don't know if anyone was interested but now you know...
talklikeyodaiwill: I can see now why you have this nickname...do you look like him aswell?

he was a wonderful person, what I wouldn't give for one conversation with him. He really gave a change on the style of writing there is today.

I would like to talk to him, too. He is such a great writer, and the background fits the stories he wrote. Maybe that's one of the places where he got his ideas. This is a good picture of Tolkien.

I'm going to date myself here, but I only discovered LOTR a few years after Tolkien died - I remember reading it, and kept looking at his picture on the back cover - and telling myself I would have to write him a letter . . . . and then I realized I had found him too late . . . Sigh!
I owe this man so much - so many thoughts, friendships, happy memories. I just want to say thanks!

I have seen this picture before, and it definitely looks like a set from the movies.
However, i don't think he would have been too happy with the movies for their changes. I have heard that he didn't like the idea of changes;):):):)
That is very sad, Marea...im sorry for your lost opportunity. I wish i could have met him...which of us deasnt??
And i emphasise that this picture be on the front page of TORC!:):):)
LOL talklikeyodaiwill!:)

Hmmm, he may not be my God, but I will say Tolkien comes in on top for my love of fantasy. I wish I could have met him, talked to him, find out how he did all those things. I have learned two things, he wrote because he loved doing it, and he wrote to entertain his boys. Hmmm, kind of like my father, telling stories to my sister and I. Hope my stories measure up.

He was the one who got me interested in writing fantasy. Now I am in the process of writing a novel and trying to live up to the standards he set so high. No he is not God, though I worship the same God he does, but I still look up to him, he was an amazing man.

Koolio! Um, I dunno, its kinda long, and its not really about LOTR, its just a fantasy novel. I usually only write historical fiction but I decided to give fantasy a chance. I might. Its called Trace the Tears.

lol... the little "Mmmmmmm.........." made me laugh. You really do talk like Yoda. I so badly wish I could have met Tolkien. I've absolutely fallen in love with his characters... how does he make Middle Earth seem so real? Sometimes I find myself wandering and then wondering if I'm stepping on a hobbit hole. lol. Maybe I read the book a little too much. He's a genius.

This man is LORD of LOTR. This man is my hero! looking at this pic is like looking at a pic of Jesus but I'm not saying that JRR is even near Jesus! This pic looks as if he was in NZ where they were fimling! it looks just where Frodo and Boromir where fighting!

Well, it has been a while since I last visited the gallery and this one image makes it very worthwhile. I have seen many pictures of JRRT, but this one, with him being among his favorite living things, "Trees", is just to cool. Sad he is no longer with us on earth but very happy that he will always be with us in our hearts.

I wonder what he would think about the movie if he were alive right now. Wish he could've have known how successful his stories are.
This is a great picture.

Tolkein's good friend C.S.Lewis predicted that if LOTR was widely accepted it could change the world. It cetainly changed the way I see eternal truths. Thank God for you, JRRT. Great photo of the essential hobbit.

thanks Proffesor for creating this wonderful world, and for letting us be a aprt of it! ![]()
what can i say, the man was a genious, and thats why his stories still lives. and i also want to that changes that have been made in the films, destroy them. SHAME!!!!!!!!!!
He'd be a very rich man if he were still alive. I'm glad someone put in a pic of him, a good one at that. He is the hero of all Tolkien fans! I don't think I'll ever stop reading his books or studying the world he made. He was a very amazing man.
THIS IS A TURE (EVAN)STAR
YEY!!
The Song of Gelfindor
"If ever a day were to have passed
Where Sun and Moon would forever last
The ships would sail, the horses neigh
For thanking of this precious day..
When time could wander near and far
And every day was just as par
The Elves would Sing, the Men would cheer
For thought and mind would be so clear..
One day this may be though it not be tommorrow
For the War's of our Fathers have brought us much sorrow
The Elves are at mourning, the Woman at crying
For they're Son's and loved ones have been out there dieing...
The Dwarves would drink, the Men would cheer
The Elves would sing with no more tears
The lands would be green, the Tree's would grow
No more would die from Sword or Foe..
If ever a day were to have passed
Where Sun and Moon would forever last
When time could wander near and far
And every day was just as par.....One day this may be though it not be tommorrow, For the War's of our Fathers have caused too much sorrow...."

Dedicated to J. R. Tolkien
thank you sir
we all know what this man mean for the thirsty souls!! i cannot explain what i want to say, i mean there?s no other book like LOTR, Silmarillion or The hobbit. This man was not God, and so he said; but he was a superman who based his art in God and all his creation was found in the truth of the holy light.....he was a hobbit, just lookt at him in this pic !!...love it....did i say superman? he was an ANGEL....a hobbit.
