#im going to stop my tags here because theyre diminishing in coherence and i dont want to tarnish my big brained revelation with rambling

everyone who knows me knows i am deeply and chronically a movie arawen enjoyer so it will come as no surprise that i am about to wax poetic about What They Achieved With That, but i truly think one of the most brilliant decisions in film adaptation history was taking book aragorns surety and giving it to arwen to embody it on screen as visual representation of the line yet with your hope i will hope. she is his hope > she is hope > he is hope (estel) and on screen, for the viewer, he learns to carry it while also being that hope all along through her. they have always been 2 parts of the same soul.

#there is just no way for me to be normal about this #phil reads lotr #it was the isildurs heir not isildur himself line that got to me #aragorn x arwen #ALSO i give hope to men i keep none for myself!!! because you ARE hope!! and so is she!!! youre the same person! #they have so many identical lines of dialogue in the movies. it makes me nuts #im going to stop my tags here because theyre diminishing in coherence and i dont want to tarnish my big brained revelation with rambling
