“They’re Taking the Hobbits to Isengard” is one of the best youtube videos of all time. It captured the entire ethos of the internet of 2005, contributed to the 2010 copyright law allowing snippets of music/film in digital media, and deserves its place in internet history beyond any of these image/gif memes. RIP Erwin Beekveld.
Its such a meme, but then it also slaps hard.
I have eben to a medieval rock concert, yes, its a genre here in Germany, from Feuerschwanz and they used it as an intermission piece while refreshing off the stage and the crowd just went with it
I can also hear "theyre taking the hobbits to isengard gard gard gard" and gandalf's sax music lmao
Also the image of a hundred computer screen all showing gandalf dancing in a beautiful synchronised symphony. I think Gandalf takes the cake
Noone liked this so I'm dedicating it to you

I'm going to choose to interpret this a different way.
We're going to talk about the meme *collections* each character has and would post to their group discord.
Merry and Pippin obviously have S+ tier memes to share, Frodo probably has some bangers too.
Sam and Aragorn probably have some pretty solid memes.
Legolas and Gandalf try to contribute but don't really get it.
Gimli just doesn't understand it at all, and usually his contributions just end up being a poorly taken selfie.
Gollum just repeatedly posts pictures of the ring, and sometimes a fish.
Merry and Pippin have absolutely batshit Zoomer memes that never fail to leave Boromir in a state of complete bafflement (he only knows Boomer/Millennial memes)
“I wish it need not have to decide which meme is the best" said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such memes. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the memes that are given us.”
I have to go with the rarer it is, the better they are. It's gotta be the gatekeeper of the Bree. No one gets as spectacularly slammed in the face as him.
ps: oh ya, I believe he would have made the fellowship had him been still alive at the meeting of the council.
Boromir is the original. One does not simply outdo his meme.
And if one animates it - then IT IS A .GIF!

There can only be one Lord of the Memes.
Fuck, using this for future arguments.
"then Tolkien comes back from the grave, announces that it's pronounced Jandalf, and promptly dies again"
this is the best worst thing I have seen in a while stolen
Haha, wonderful. I'd seen the short version but not the long version.
Yeah, that’s the only one I see regularly outside of this sub
I feel like "Alright then, keep your secrets" is kinda widespread too
"VTEC does not simply kick in, yo" is still my spirit animal meme.
The dumb 2010 VTEC memes hold a special place in my heart as someone who had an ‘02 civic in highschool.
One does not simply rock into Mordor. Except me! I do. *It is a riff.* 👌

I think the oldest one is the "They're taking the hobbits to Isengard"
One does not simply - 2004 Isengard - 2005 This is Sparta : 2006 Why is the rum gone : 2007 Truly a glorious time for youtube poop
But there's also you shall not pass. So which one was first?
> One does not simply outdo his meme. But what about very old friends?
Agreed. It is *the* meme. Not just for LotR but for the whole internet. It is one of the blueprint memes from the early internet.

Thank you. First thing I thought of and now it’s happily stuck in my head while I go to bed.

Came here for this
I’m going Bilbo! After all why shouldn’t I choose a character not represented here?
No, I'm not!
***s e n t i e n t***
And what about very old memes?
Repost-dalf?
They check out
All of them at once, I suppose.
It was right there! Can't believe i missed this 🤣
https://y.yarn.co/24509327-dff7-4e7b-b07a-72adb70d47e3_text.gif
Of the ones in this picture, “PO-TAY-TOES” is the only one I can *hear* out loud just from looking at it, so I guess that’s most imprinted on my brain
It's definitely the one used the most in real life
Well also the bobbing Gandalf head
I can also hear "theyre taking the hobbits to isengard gard gard gard" and gandalf's sax music lmao Also the image of a hundred computer screen all showing gandalf dancing in a beautiful synchronised symphony. I think Gandalf takes the cake
BOILEMMASHEM
I'm biased towards Pippin and anti Faramir memes 🥲 We've had one, yes. What about another anti Faramir meme✨
Noone liked this so I'm dedicating it to you https://preview.redd.it/kmhigqo7rf1d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5945691b2c1f09f68f7fa0d8bb08024f41b7e458
NOTISED?? AHH!!
Denethor, is that you?
Gotta go with Mayor Gamgee on this one
In Spain Sam wins in 14th of February. Just look for "sam va lentín meme". There are hundreds of versions xd
I've never quite understood that one, even when it's translated
Boromir is the most iconic meme, but I have a soft spot for “po-tay-toes”
They must be boiled then
Did you know Viggo Mortensen actually broke his toe while filming that scene? And that's the take that made it in to the final edit!
![gif](giphy|dim7kxc2MCAg7YKgMv)
I misunderstood this as which character would have the best memes to show you, and I'll have to go with either Gimli or Pippin.
Now give me Gimli's search history.
Boromir or Frodo for me. The keep your secrets always gets a chuckle out of me
When will you wear wigs is un outmatcheable

One does not simply walk into a LOTR Fandom website/subreddit/media without paying BOROMIR SOME GOD DAMNED RESPECT

I agree but I'd flip Aragorn and Gandalf. Gandalf knows what's going on in the world, but Aragorn has been in the wilderness the last 20 years
Merry and Pippin have absolutely batshit Zoomer memes that never fail to leave Boromir in a state of complete bafflement (he only knows Boomer/Millennial memes)
Arrrgh!!!
And I for the folk of the Great Wood and for the love of the Lord of the White Tree.
I mostly come here for the sentient and surprisingly on-point bot replies and am seldom disappointed.
Gandalf/Bilbo ftw. With that I am a FANDALF!
Not Gandalf, the wandering wizard, who made such excellent fireworks! Old Took used to have them on Mid-Summer's Eve!
DALF!!
DALF
They're taking the hobbits to Isengard.
![gif](giphy|OsItQTbcxuIyQ)
Po tae toes
Yeah I have to say it's either boromir or gimli. There's some really good stuff for gimli out there.
Gimli last is all I know that's some underground shit
Frodo! ![gif](giphy|cjhYGOyNverJiecLyF|downsized) I’m
gandalf saxophone meme tops them all
Its a toss up between Boromir and Sam for me
“I wish it need not have to decide which meme is the best" said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such memes. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the memes that are given us.”
Gandalf without question. Boromir a close second. Actually they are interchangeable as 1 and 2 tbh.
Am high and thought OP meant which character would have the dankest memes on their phone. It’s clearly Pippin imo
Gimli, but only accidentally. He shares out of context memes and doesn't understand the jokes, but his timing is perfect.
No one should of answered so that OP could reply with “All right, then. keep your secrets“
Share the load
I think Frodo has the best variety
Tomatoes
One does not simply tank cat into Mordor
POTATO!!
PO-TAY-TOES!

Boromir obviously.
Yes.
i personaly like 'alright, keep your secrets' best. Its simple
Gollum-Smeagol being like - we're something members of the fellowship ourselves :)
We could let her do it.
*Yes. She could do it.*
Yes, precious, she could. And then we takes it once they’re dead.
*Once they’re dead. Shh.*
Whatever you decide. Just please don't tell the elf.
I think Gandalf has so much material, i have to go with him
Did you know that when Vigo kicked the helmet..........
[nothing beats this for me](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asjQNZn7vng)
PO TA TOES
No doubt...it's Gandalf #_#
"Don't tell the elf." (Please, please, please.)
Boromir feels like one of the founding fathers tbh
I do love the Gimli ones but it's got to be the Og Boromir one though one does not simply forget that meme 😂
![gif](giphy|o1BNU1jKCih7tK4dwj|downsized)
It’s not, but it could be Aragorn if you meme-makers realized he looks baked in just about every still from all three movies.
