Ok, let's settle this once and for all. If I hear one more person say "Why didn't they just take the eagles to Mordor?" with that smug little look like they've unlocked Tolkien's ultimate plot hole, I might just kick a helmet in frustration (toe intact, hopefully).

Here's the deal: they couldn't take the eagles because Sauron's eye was literally always watching. The Nazgûl would have shredded them out of the sky in seconds. And even if they somehow made it through, the eagles are insanely powerful beings - just like Gandalf or Galadriel, they would have been corrupted by the Ring. It had to be someone small, someone overlooked, someone who could actually resist its pull. It had to be a hobbit. And honestly, it probably had to be Frodo (or Sam, but he had too much self doubt).

Now that we've cleared that up, let's get to the fun part - the memes. Because for every moment of epic storytelling, there's an equally epic meme waiting to remind us that even the greatest fantasy saga ever written can be roasted by the internet. Here are 30 Lord of the Rings memes that rule them all.
