Mind=Blown

landscape of Rohan and Whiterun are also very similar ( in the films ) , however i do not disagree with you

Ye like in every interview, haha.

thank you ive been looking for this gif

Actually, Whiterun is based off of the town from LOTR (I forget the name)
Both symbols are horses, they are both centrally located, both play a big role in their stories, both have a devious plot to have an evil force to control of the throne.
Not to mention the architectural style looks very similar.

the name of the town in lord of the rings is Edoras, capital of Rohan. Just clearing it up

Good day to you.

that is indeed rohan, you are correct

thx

I thought the riders were banished after this dude said GTFO.

they were until theodan (the king) was freed from saurumans spell by gandalf, then they were welcomed back in a grand re-entrance at the battle for helms deep. regardless, they were originally from rohan, and continue to reside there now that wormtongues influence is done

little bit of a LOTR nerd, mightve gone a little overboard there...

It seems that you are very knowledgeable about this..
Could you tell why they didn't use the eagles to fly to Mordor in the first place, maybe? I am cunfuse..

honestly, i do not know exactly why they did not do this, though i do have some theories.
1) it would have made the next two books extremely boring if the quest finished halfway through the first
2) the eagles are a bunch of lazy assholes who didnt feel like flying into mordor
3) flying the eagles into mordor would have alerted sauron to their location very early on and would have brought the nazgul down on them with their flying steeds
4) if the nazgul and their flying beasts hadnt been enough, the defenses around mordor would probably have been more than enough to bring down the eagles and those riding them
5) most importantly, would YOU want to ride an eagle past the giant floating eye that embodies all evil in the land? i know i wouldnt

Sauron was still really powerful and the evil of Mordor was supposed to be hard to take. Sauron also still had some power, he was weakened but not powerless.
Also he would have seen them coming a mile off.

this. i want to know this. gandalf held out on everyone -.-

To dungeons deep, and caverns old.

The pines were roaring on the heights

the dragonborn c-oh woops, sorry wrong prophecy :P
