    Boring movie series then.

    …and Gandalf the Grey spent 3 weeks drinking and smoking and setting off fireworks with the Hobbits, remembering his old friend Bilbo who died some years earlier after an average hobbit lifespan with his nephew Frodo…

    THE END

      remembering his old friend Bilbo who died some years earlier after an average hobbit lifespan horribly in a cave after being captured by goblins…

        Would goblins/orcs still have endured without the lingering evil of Sauron?

        They weren’t naturally occurring (yes they bred but they were made to be a breeding army for evil and I’m pretty sure Tolkien alluded them to dying out quickly after the ring was destroyed) in Tolkien’s lore I’m pretty sure and were interchangable terms for the same species in his lore even though they’re different in others.
