    Not as old as Tom Bombadil who is older than the trees and the forests.

    But this man is 63. Flip the numbers.

      Oldest and fatherless, well except for Shelob. We have no idea what's going on there she just showed up and claims to have always existed.

        Shelob is Ungoliant's kid, and Ungoliant is all the Vala going "What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck we did not sing that in to existence what the fuck?!?!?!"

        I just read like forty pages of the LotR wiki so I could pull out this fact at parties and people would think I'm cool.

          Morgoth making an alliance with the personification of hunger, fucking around: "haha yes! Yes!"

          Morgoth getting eaten by said spider two hours later, screaming for his Balrogs to come earn their keep, finding out: "haha this sucks"

            The killing of the Two Trees would make an awesome movie, all by itself.

            You'd have to get a humdinger of an actor to play Morgoth, like Heath Ledger in Joker, and some good CGI for Shelob, but it would be the most bad-ass evil move ever. Lots of inspiring heavy metal music. Gentle people would be leaving the movie in tears.

          I love that there's shit beyond the supposed creators of the world in LOTR. Cthulu ass nightmares deep beneath the earth, with all these pretty well to do God's either ignorant or afraid or both of them.
