Master is just an honorific, like mister or lady. Don't read too far into it, even the innkeeper at the Prancing Pony called the hobbits "little masters". It's typically used for young men/boys.
@@mokko759 the innkeeper doesn't know their names, but the fellowship travels together for a long time and the others refer to him as Frodo (might be mistaken, it's been a while). Gimli also doesn't seem to refer to the other hobbits as master *last name*, but again I might be wrong.

And then in the heat of the battle, the troll struck Frodo with his spear, causing great damage to the little hobbit, however, heard only by the gods of the middle earth, something that resembled a stone hitting a solid surface, followed by an enthusiastic voice yelling "NAT 20 BABY". Nobody knows what that means, but one thing is certain, the spell saved Frodo. Miraculously, a light yet strong mithril chainmail appeared on him, and everyone realized that he was indeed wearing it since the beginning.
Isileli Tuiaki it’s pretty cool when you find out about the other battles during return if the king. Back in Erebor, the dwarves and men of dale fought against sauron again. It’s pretty cool I wish we got to see it on film because that’s where most of the easterlings went to when we saw them in the two towers.
I've always thought it would have been a great Easter egg to have Legolas look at the Mithril shirt with relief and some nostalgia, given that it was very likely made for him as a child.
except for legolass missed the xp for the best kill in mines of moria, which gandalf took with the balrog, and he took all the xp for it cause he made the rest of the party flee so he could have it all for himself!
Yeah well if you have a dwarf or longer living human like Aragorn, lets say they have 70 years of experiance and some more to come, were elves can have 10 times that or even 100 times more experiance. No wonder they know where to hit with an arrow or how to slice with sword
ugh have u forgotten Gandalf the Grey?? he's the True G for soloing the Balrog of Morgoth,keeping all those exp for himself till he ascended into the White xD
as far as I remember from the book, they found most of their equipment (including their swords) in a tomb - that was even before they met Aragorn, at the edge of The Shire
I am calling BS on the Mithril's effectiveness. It seems quite pliable enough that the spear from the troll could create serious life threating compression injuries to Frodo.
Hey, the vest was woven by Elves so who knows what magical enchantments they could have added to it. Maybe it has the ability to not only stop the impact by suddenly stiffening the vest but absorb the kinetical energy given as well making it a much, much less painful blow. Hey if it works for Captain America's vibranium shield (ya I know different universe) why not a Mithril Vest like I said the Elves crafted it who knows what else they did. It's just a fictional metal, and Gandalf said he never told Bilbo but its worth was greater than the whole Shire.
Always thought this scene was weird. The mail being unbreakable is believable, but it apparently stops all kinetic energy too. That spear probably has the force of a small car behind it and chainmail does nothing to disperse the energy
I mean, you see the spear between his arm and body, so it most likely hit the side of the stomach, and slid between his arm and chest. Of course this would hurt like hell, and as you can see in the scene Frodo even passed out for a second because of it. Wouldn't be surprised if he had a broken rib or two.
The Mithril vest would have stopped the spear from entering Frodo's body BUT the blunt force from the giant Troll stabbing him WOULD NOT stop the vest from shattering his ribs with the pressure hit by it, there by killing Frodo anyways. In the book it was just an Orc that stabbed him which would make it more believable. But hey, the vest was woven by Elves so who knows what magical enchantments they could have added to it.

It is hard to say. Mythril, for all we know, could share characteristics with non newtonian fluids. EDIT: Which is what you implied with the sudden stiffening.
O think with warp technologies coming out soon, Mithril will be rediscovered...a rainbow like aura that makes the wearer feel the pain of the blow or piercing, warping the wound back to normal as fast as it is made...em maybe...this is the mithril I think we in fantasy circles are told of...not small chained armour...Jaime lanisters patterns on his armour hint as waveform protected armour...symbology seem all over LOTRs

Well it's not like you couldn't die from it- in the books it was a orc leader who stabbed him and ofc he could've survived, but this HUGE ASS TROLL would've smashed frodos tiny ribcage with blunt force
Gandalf- We've come a long way, just because of this fuckin' ring.. We had one thing to do and now Frodo is dead:-( I'm tired of this motherfuckin' orcs in this motherfuckin' cave:-) 😂😂😂
I'll be honest, the Frodo stabbing scene really annoys me. Because it comes off as a bit of a cheap misdirect since Frodo has the exact same facial expression as when he had actually been stabbed, where in reality he wasn't hurt here at all. So technically, there is no reason he would be acting like he was stabbed. Its a small thing but it bugs me.
Nikunj Dixit what are you talking about? He is wearing chainmail, and got fucking stabbed by a cave troll. Have you ever had the wind knocked out of you? This is like being punched in the gut by a pro boxer times 10, I think that’s the appropriate reaction.
@@themooingtree5163 nope, he would of been set flying with broken ribs because it didnt actually stab him. This was pure dramatic, you even here the stab sound effect like it went through him.
No no it hurt him and Frodo had never been stabbed before he wouldn’t have known what the mythrilcouls and couldn’t protect. The stab knocked the wind outta him but upon realizing it didn’t pierce him was ok
It is a pained expression because that is what Frodo is feeling. In truth if a massive creature stabbed you like that even if you had super strong mithril armor you would still die just from the force of the impact.
@@MrMarinus18 Except the expression is clearly supposed to mislead us into thinking that he has been stabbed. When he actually gets stabbed, he has the exact same facial expression.
The one ring? Gimli: "I'll smash it!" Elven companion? Gimli: "He annoys me!!" Galadriel? Gimli: "I don't care about her, baki! [Blush] Uruk across a pit that you are unable to jump, but can be tossed across? "Don't tell him!!* Sweaty Elven armor a hobbit is using... 😶
I have been told that silver is actually rarer than gold or platinum and valuing it less than gold is insane. In a real free market gold would be worth something like $40 million an ounce and silver $145 billion an ounce. It's use as an armor I don't know. In the military, silver insignia are more than gold insignia.
Above ground silver is more rare than above ground gold, and silver does have some real world applications as well. Generally speaking though, gold is not only more rare but also more useful, being easier to work with, standard ratios do not tarnish (most market silver isn’t pure silver, but a copper silver alloy made for increased strength but causes it to tarnish), and use in electronics (very good conductor that again does not tarnish). The free market doesn’t just rely on supply, but demand as well, at least ideally. Silver may be harder to come by in some circumstances, but gold is just much more useful. Rareness does not mean value.
How could dwarves of Moria lose against orcs if they had whole mine of fu$£ing mithrill? They could produce the ultimate armor for every soldier and still they lost, how is this possible?? Lets say that somehow they didnt have that much mithril to make armor for everyone they should have at least 50 men and the king and it clearly would be more than enough to fight off some stupid orcs
Am yeeaaah.. Frodo died 100 % here okay.. His rib cage would have imploded on impact. Coz ya know.. it wasn't a mithril harness.. it was a chainmail.. That's why these movies completely sucks.. other than visually, because no one's ever in danger. And that's why Game of thrones is great, or well.. let's say "great" with some major caveats, but at least great in comparison to LOTR since main characters freakin die all the time! Hah! No one's safe. Coz there's very few cases of major plot-armour, if any, arguably. And I'll even go as far as to say, that the mortality rate is way too high and the passing of major characters, occurs way too often. Also.. in all honesty, only seasons 1-5 are good, and the first season is actually to rushed and not as good as 2-5 imho.
