You know how parents say they love all their children equally? Yeah, that's what I tell myself about every meme listicle I write. But—let's be honest—just like every parent secretly has a favorite, so do I. And it's Lord of the Rings memes, by far, without question, no competition.
I don't know what it is about the fandom—maybe Tolkien just attracts the best people—but LOTR memes are consistently some of the smartest, funniest, and most well-crafted treasures the internet has to offer. It's the perfect combination of timeless storytelling, iconic characters, and jokes that hit you straight in the feels. These memes are pure gold (mithril, if we're being precise).
So pour yourself a pint, Light up some Old Toby, sit back, and scroll through these 50 memes. Because even after all this time, they're still the most precious on the internet.
