We've been re-reading The Fellowship of the Ring and we can't help but marvel at how brilliantly the narrative was adapted from J.R.R. Tolkien's rich prose to the cinematic masterpiece by the quartet of wizards - Fran Walsh, Philippa Boyens, Peter Jackson, and Stephen Sinclair. They didn't try to outdo the book, they simply channelled its essence into another form, like transforming a solid ring into a glorious fiery inscription!

Moreover, without the marriage of Tolkien's work with the magic of cinema, we wouldn't have this wonderful world translated into the visual vernacular of our times - memes. What would we do without the 'One does not simply...' or 'You have no power here!' memes to accurately express our internet emotions? 

So let's delve into 33 hilarious Lord of the Rings memes. These memes, much like Samwise with Frodo, will carry you through your day (or at least give you a good laugh along the way).

    and for many the guide was inevitably often at fault. Some who have read the book, or at any rate have reviewed it, have found it boring, absurd, or contemptible; and I have no cause to complain, since I have similar opinions of their works, or of the kinds of writing that they evidently prefer.
