Wait a minute...
Do they have restaurants in Mordor??
>>70887261
how did he know what a menu was?
>>70887261
Aren't uruks elves that died or something? I think elves would know what a menu is
Why WOULDN'T they have restaurants? They have pubs or guesthouses where travelers can go to get a meal and sleep....
>>70887261
Doesn't Mordor have little town and stuff? It's not too far fetched to think they would have eating establishments as well.
>>70887261
>he doesn't know where to dine in Mordor
try going out for once
How did Morgoth and Sauron supply enough food to feed an army of thousands when they always lived in burnt ashy wastelands far away from the rest of civilization?
>>70887359
The first orcs were corupted elves.
Uruks are either made out of goblins, humans, or goblin/orc-human hybrid, depending on which source you choose to believe

Retard
>>70887414
Because you're an idiot who thinks Mordor is nothing but a burnt ashy wasteland. Mordor is a big place and doesn't solely consist of Mt.Doom. It actually has quite a diverse landscape and many different inhabitants.
>>70887261
Nice! Wasn't expecting to see a thread about Orc: the best character there is. Good job OP. 11/10
>>70887468
You need some good fucking conditions to grow crops and they're compeltely surrounded by siberia-tier barren wasteland mountains, unusable swamps dipshit.
>>70887446
What did Orc mean by this?
>>70887538
>he doesn't know about the greenlands in southern Mordor where they have slaves constantly growing crops
>>70887538
>>70887414
>he hasn't played Shadow of Mordor
>he hasn't read the Silmarillion
you uncultured swine!
>>70887359
These are Uruk-Hai,they're human/orc hybrids.
>>70887416
Uruk is an orc. These are Uruk-Hai
>>70887715
Shadow of Mordor shits on Tolkien in so many ways. Fuck that game
>>70887414
Nûrn. Google it. In fact, Google any dumb question you have before making a post to ask /tv/
>>70888249
that is a meaningless post unless you can explain why
that game completely fits into the lore, so yeah fuck off
>>70887261
Why is THIS always the fucking line that's brought up? Why does no one ever mention that people shout "FIRE!" when commanding archers to release their arrows, despite the fact that "Fire" wasn't used as a command until after the invention of firearms?
Christ I hate you guys sometimes

No, it doesn't at all, so fuck off. Also, the themes present in the story go completely against Tolkiens themes.
>>70888387
Both are inconsequential nitpicks

Who are the Menu Boys?
>>70888387
the dwarves meet aragnorb in a restaurant in the first lotr movie
>>70888543
but how did orcs know about that restaurant?
>>70887261
Slave or client races/regions produce food and other materiel for the armies of Sauron.
That would have been expected of Saruman too, if their 'relationship' had lasted longer.
>>70887715
How did he get massive biceps and 'no' pectorals?
>>70888739
one of those idiots who spend 90% of time in the gym doing bicep curls
>>70888387
English in LotR is a translation of the Common Tongue. They're not literally saying 'fire', that's just how it was translated so that we can understand it.
>>70887261
Of course they do. That's why we need to let more orcs immigrate into Gondor, so we can be enriched by their cultural diversity. You don't want to be a racist bigot, right?
Were there good orcs? Or were all orcs irredeemably evil?
>>70888835
>>70888835
holy fucking shit rekt.
>>70888916
They were 'created' by Morgoth aka Satan. They're pure evil.
>>70888416
Yeah, I watch Mrbitchtongue too faggot. He's objectively wrong.
>>70888416
I thought it was ok. Obviously its not going to adhere completely to Tolkien's work, (what with the wraith shit and such) but, as with most things, rule of cool was in full effect.
Fuck the ending tho
>>70887416
>The first orcs were corupted elves.
No. Or at least, that isn't the sole, solid explanation. Old man Tolkien contemplated many possibilities for how Orcs originated, but never made one canon.
>>70888976
Morgoth can't create shit, he only corrupts what's already there. In fact him going emo about daddy illuvatar not letting create stuff is the source of his evil.
>>70889486
That's why I put 'created' in quote marks. He is responsible for their existence as orcs, even if he didn't create them from scratch.
>>70888835
>>70888940
Then why not use "loose" instead?
>>70890048
Because it was translated into 20th century English, when 'loose' used in that context wasn't as common. Or y'know, Jackson's a hack, take your pick.
