When did you realize this character was actually correct?

How come?

>>79420804
What were his tax policies? HMMMMM?

>>79420804
why was there so much blood when he was eating the chicken? dont they cook their food? almost made me puke at the cinema

>>79420950
it was juice from the tomato idiot

Why was his name Stewart? Really takes the immersion out of it.

>>79420950
He was eating a tomato.

>>79420804
>correct

strange choice of word in this context. are you from china?

>>79421007

it wasn't a tomato, imbecile. it was a tohmahtoh, you munktoon.

I do believe Jack was the court chef

>>79421209
What's mahtoh, precious

when I read the book

>>79420804
Denethor was probably much more fit to rule Gondor than Aragorn was. Hell Aragorn barely spent any time IN Gondor, he was too busy fucking around in the woods and drinking alone in the corner at bars. Monarchy is shit.

>>79420804
Yeah but what about that tax increase?

>>79421460
This. There's something wrong with hos Gandalf claims that after the line of kings stopped ruling Gondor, it was in the hands of "lesser men". This idea that kings rule by divine right just because of who their great-great-grandpa was even if he never lived in the place he's supposed to rule goes against everything I believe in.

>>79420804
Why didn't he or one of his ancestors just proclaim themselves king? It's not like anybody could stop them.

>>79421321

nahteehngs dah mahtoh, mah prehshoooosh.

>>79421573

because you do not live in a middle earth where kings are descended from the mating of a human touched by a silmaril and an elf with a maiar mom, you munktoon.

>>79421629

but somebody could. and did.

>>79420962
>>79421007
>>79421209

it was a cherry you dumb shits

>>79421688
Yeah, and that someone was Aragorn, after centuries of his family line doing fuck all. I'm just saying, political situations aren't static, there is no way that some other family wouldn't fill the void and assume the throne themselves, it's happened countless times throughout history.

>>79421629
They just taxed all the other claimants out of money.

>>79421770
Arvedui claimed the crown of Gondor

>>79420950
>>79420962
>>79421007
>>79421759
it was a plum you retards

>>79421770

our history. not their history where kings have elvish and maiar blood and a descendant of a king can command an army of ghosts.

>>79421759

it was a cherry tohmahtoh.

>>79421944
Doesn't matter. If none of those Maiar blood people are around for centuries, ambitious nobles will see their chance to cement their power. It's not like the people would even be able to tell the difference, if they even cared.

>>79421909

it was a cherry tohmahtoh plahm, you munktoons

>>79421972

but they did believe that they're somewhere and they did believe a son will someday return to claim the throne and they do care. prophecies and dooms and centuries-old grudges are real in middle earth.

Why didn't he just crown hisself king?

>>79422693

because he can't. read appropriate posts above discussing this.

Was Denethor portrayed as an insane and evil character rather than the infinitely more interesting tragic figure from the books?

>>79422835

only a girl or a fake man would think tragedy is more interesting than insanity

>>79420804
He wasn't correct. At least not the movie version.

>>79422722
>because he can't
And I ask again, who is going to stop him?

>>79422835
Remember the palantir?

Denethor has one, he sees Aragorn with the sword, plus Sauron succeeds in filling his mind with doubt through it.
Its the reason why he is so hostile from the start and how for some reason a trusted steward and ruler of his people gets instantly de-moralized and retarded.

>>79423010

The audience never knows Denethor was using a Palantir though. Even in the extended version they probably just think the Palantir Aragorn uses to goad Suaron was just the one Saruman had.

>>79420804

They actually won the war against Sauron so he wasn't.

>>79421460
>>79421573
Who is Thorongil?

>>79423042
but, thats what i meant.

In the movie his just spiteful, evil and a coward.
In the books he is fleshed out much better.

What part of read appropriate posts above discussing this do you not understand, you illiterate baboon?

>>79420804
You don't get it, do you? Denethor represents the decline of the West and Aragorn represents tradition.

Denethor is Angela Merkel and Aragorn is Marion Le Pen.

>>79421321
TO-MAH-TOH?

SLICE them, DICE them, stick 'em in a SOUP?

>>79421178
Depends on what he means with correct. If he's trying to convey that he was right about something, it's fine, if he means correct as in cool guy it's not

>>79420804
But what was his fiscal policy?
