If you find yourself in times of trouble, ask yourself, ‘what would Gandalf do’, and remember, ‘beat a man unconscious with a big stick’ is a valid answer
When I find myself in times of trouble, Gandalf Greyhame comes to me, Wailing on those assholes, With a tree (with a tree)
the scene in return of the king where gandalf gets pippin to light gondor’s beacons is a lot funnier when you remember that pippin has already sworn fealty to denethor, which means that he’s a legal citizen of the city and servant of its ruler and therefore committing high treason
The best use of magic in the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit movies is whenever Gandalf uses it to make his voice really loud to win an argument because I would do the same thing.
