30 Memes That Combine Lord of the Rings and Monty Python to Form the Ultimate Unexpected Fellowship

What do you get when you cross two of my absolute favorite things—Lord of the Rings and Monty Python? Pure hilarity and joy. Honestly, these two represent the extremes of my personality. On one side, you have the epic, high-concept fantasy of Middle-earth: smart, nuanced, and packed with timeless lessons about good and evil. On the other, the sheer, absurd lunacy of Monty Python—utter nonsense in the best possible way.

And somehow, these two worlds go together like Balrogs and killer rabbits. Whether it's Gandalf as the Black Knight not letting others pass or Patsy explaining that Minas Tirith is "only a model," these memes are a delightful mashup of epic and ridiculous. If you're a fan of either (or both), you're in for a treat that'll have you laughing all the way from Mount Doom to the castle of AAAaaarrrrhhhh.
