You may know that the movies use Tolkien's languages (more accurately, extended versions of them) for music lyrics and whispered lines.

Over time, multiple people published custom subtitles to include those lines. However, they were always incomplete (missing songs or stopping after the Fellowship).

Building upon all the incredible work done before me, I finished the job and created the ultimate subtitles to watch the movies! Here they are:

Ultimate Lord of the Rings subtitles (to download the files for those that aren't familiar with GitHub: go to the folder, click on the file, then the "download raw file" button)

These subtitles are made for the Extended versions only. VLC player with reduced text size is heavily recommended to display the subtitles as intended.

I could not have done this without building upon other people's work, especially these fantastic resources:

• LeithioiPhilinn on Subscene (original link is dead)
• FUNKSW on Subscene (original link is dead)
• MidlandsSingingLessons (FOTR, TTT, ROTK)
• A Magpie's Nest
• Complete Elvish LOTR subtitles by howa003 - more literal translations, some songs are not included, only the Fellowhip of the Ring is complete
• LOTR Subs by genekellyjr - might have more versions available and instructions on how to adapt timing if necessary, only the Fellowhip of the Ring is complete

I also used a lot of other pages for small cross-checks that would be too long to list here.

This project took me dozens of hours, so if you like these subs, please share them with every Lord of the Rings fan out there, that's the best way to thank me!

Contributions are welcome if you spot any mistake.

She will be an original character for the film, and while it is not yet known what role she will play in the plot, she will be an important one.

"It has come to me: The One Ring. It shall be an heirloom of my kingdom. All those who follow in my bloodline shall be bound to its fate, for I will risk no hurt to the Ring. It is precious to me, though I buy it with great pain. The markings upon the band begin to fade. The writing, which at first was as clear as red flame, has all but disappeared, a secret now that only fire can tell."
