minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-210 months agoLord of the Rings is from 1968, and I read it in the 80’s, and have seen the movies. I don’t see how that was a reference to either.
minus-squareBigmouselinkfedilinkEnglish3•edit-210 months agoIt’s a movie reference. Specifically it references “The Lord of the Rings: The return of the King” at the end of the battle of Minas Tirith. It is said by Gimli, as a response to Legolas slaying a Mumak (giant war elephant). I’m sorry i don’t have a timestamp. Edit: It’s 2:50:49ish in the extended edition
