Middle Earth People in Today's Society

Lord of the Rings Trilogy Forum

If the people of Middle Earth lived in today's society, which race do you think would be the most successful?

Great topic, thank you.

Hobbits, they arent immortal (elves), no one would accept things more powerful than them (Ents and Dwarves).

And hobbits are so cool, they would just be a different race.

I would have to say Hobbits. Elves are too arrogant, Dwarves too greedy, and Ents, well they take way too long to do anything. Hobbits love community, so they would be the best.

uh...well i'd say that the race of men would do us the most justice!
i'd have to agree that hobbits would work the best.

I would have to say Dwarves because they are hard working, funny, down to earth, and proud. All traits that today's society encourages.

I would say Dwarves because they are Stubburn and strong hearted and in a world like the one we have today with all the wars and people getting mugged and beaten or even killed those qualities would help them get by.

I have to say hobbits. How many people are trying to be more like them anyways They would fit in pretty good I think

Hobbits, after all, according to Tolkien they exist anyway... They are just too quick and nimble to be seen

My answer was obvious.

And somehow, i dont think people would take too kindly to giant trees walking around!

You mean real trees don't walk around?

Does that mean flowers can't speak too?
