She/Her ☆ 32yo I'm a Tired™ college student trying to get my second major, this time in something that I actually love. I'm back on my anime/manga era, and I have 0 regrets; however, Tolkien will always be in my heart.  English is not my first language.

Lord of the Rings is so complicated because we don’t just have canon vs not canon we have

  • was-in-the-trilogy book canon
  • contradicting from a different book canon
  • movie-verse canon
  • Tolkien mentioned it in a letter once canon
  • Christopher Tolkien speculated canon
  • fanon
  • wikipedia accepts it as canon even though it’s not 100% sure canon

like how are you even supposed to keep track of all that

Don’t forget

  • Tolkien changed his mind but you’re not sure which version you like better canon
  • Early ‘mythology for England’ canon
  • Tolkien implied it in a letter once canon
  • Fan movie canon
  • Tolkien never actually made up his mind so choose a headcanon

Also worth noting: 

  • Christopher Tolkien changed his mind canon
  • Omissions even from the HoMe that are only found in obscure linguistic journals or tertiary literature canon
  • Changing language concepts canon
  • Minor works canon
