	Black Gate (Middle-earth) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the War of the Ring, the Army of the West, numbering some 7,000 men, arrived at the Black Gate with the intention of drawing the Eye of Sauron away from Mount Doom, to allow Frodo the Ringbearer to cast the One Ring into the Crack of Doom within it.
		The Black Gate or Morannon is a location in J.
		This they achieved, and the Ring was destroyed in the fires of Mount Doom, following which the Black Gate and the Towers of Teeth immediately collapsed.

		The Redhorn Gate was on the southern slopes of the mountain called the Redhorn, or Caradhras.

		They walked as it were in a black vapour wrought of veritable darkness itself that, as it was breathed, brought blindness not only to the eyes but to the mind, so that even the memory of colours and of forms and of any light faded out of thought.

	Creatures of Middle-Earth
		As the Black Gate collapsed, the Dark Tower toppled, and in the midst of their flight the mighty Nazgul fell shrieking in flames that ended them for ever.
		Clad in black armour, often carrying straight swords and long yew bows as well as many of the evil and poisoned Orcs weapons, the Uruk-hai were made elite men-at-arms and most often were the high commanders and captains of the lesser Orcs.
		They wore great cloaks, black and hooded, and hauberks of mail and silver helms, yet beneath were the grey robes of the dead and their bodies were invisible.

	Short Story: The Gate from Middle Earth
		The gate to the middle ages appeared a scant dozen feet ahead.
		It was immense: an ornate, black gate that towered over me, the only opening in the long wall that stretches both East and West as far as eyes can see.
		It shut behind me with such a clang that it was heard from Middle Earth to Mundania.

	Black Gate: Reviews of our Recent Issues
		Black Gate has sharpened its focus on these two elements of good fiction, while never abandoning the brisk pacing, imagination, and swashbuckling fun, strangeness, or horror one expects in an adventure tale.
		Black Gate is thick, halfway between a trade paperback and a regular magazine.
		The paper quality of Black Gate is superior of course -- this isn't a pulp magazine -- but it's an attempt to revive the species in a modern context.

	McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Unused Audio Commentary By Howard Zinn & Noam Chomsky, Recorded Summer 2002, for The Fellowship of the Ring Platinum Series Extended Edition DVD, Part One
		We should not overlook the fact that Middle Earth is in a cold war at this moment, locked in perpetual conflict.
		I think this is a way of telling others in Middle Earth to be ashamed of their eyes.
		You are correct when you point out that Middle Earth depends on pipe-weed in some crucial sense, but I think you may be overstating its importance.

		At this point, it is a good time to introduce you to the members of the fellowship and the inhabitants of Middle Earth.

		There are also other towers in Middle Earth, and you will see them as the story develops.

		Black Wise: Sauron and the Nazgûl, as well as Saruman after his fall under the Shadow; briefly, all the Wise sharing a primary goal of supremacy of the Shadow and spreading of evil.
		However, it is not against the spirit of the Tolkien's ideas to assume that rare magical artifacts, such as immobile gates and portals, can provide a similar effect.
		Mages can draw power from their familiars and use it for casting spells (which explains why Gandalf needed Shadowfax to stop a Nazgûl on the gates of Minas Tirith).

	Amazon.co.uk: Books: The Atlas of Tolkien's Middle-Earth
		I have also used it for role playing in Middle Earth, as it is phenominally consistent with distances and provides plans of most of the important buildings and cities visited, such as Bag End, Minas Tirith, Beorn's House, Thranduil's Halls, Lothlorien, Cirith Ungol, etc, etc. If it's mentioned in the books, it's in here!
		This atlas is simply the best working of Middle Earth maps I have ever seen.
		An absolutely amazing read for anyone even remotely interested in middle earth.

		There waiting silent and still in the space before the Gate, sat Gandalf upon Shadofax, Shadowfax who alone among the free horses of the earth endured the terror, unmoving, steadfast as a graven image in Rath Dinen.
		They were black and it was hard to see what exactly their shape was inside the shadow they carried with them.
		Almost no animals would face the Nazgul, especially the Lord of the Nazgul, save the horses bred in the Black Land.

	Gollum : Middle Earth/Smeagol
		When the Black Gate was found to be impassable, Gollum led them through Ithilien to Cirith Ungol and in the border-mountains of the Ephel Dúath, Gollum betrayed his companions to the great spider Shelob, child of Ungoliant.
		Just as Frodo warned him, Gollum's betrayal of his oath on the Ring ultimately led to his undoing, for Frodo and Sam escaped from Shelob's lair and came against all odds to the volcano of Orodruin.
		Originally known as Sméagol he was later named Gollum after the curious noise he made in his throat.

	Christianity and Middle-Earth
		Then the forts on the borders of Mordor were deserted, and Minas Ithil was emptied of its people; and evil entered again into the Black Lands secretly, and the ashes of Gorgoroth were stirred as by a cold wind, for dark shapes gathered there.
		Dominionism is the theory that the account in Genesis in which God gave man dominion over the earth has become a political teaching advocating that Christians gain and hold power.
		There was clang and clang of spear and shield and clash and clash of hoof and heel, wild shouts and the wave of hair in the rush upon the wind: Thus the ride of sin.

	Middle-earth Science
		A few words on distances: Sam/Frodo/Smeagol are at a point near the Black gate which is approximately 180 miles from Baradur (where the Nazgul are if they are sent by Sauron, presumably), and Pippin is about 600 miles from Baradur.
		These two Nazgul are also observed/felt by Frodo, Sam and Smeagol as they are hiding near the Black Gate.
		At this point one Nazgul is already on route to Isengard, and a second is sent at the point Pippin finishes looking in the Palantir.

		Although it's sad seeing how some people are living they are interesting to talk with, and it's enjoyable driving in a van with a group of Christians as we go from place to place.

	Chronology of Middle Earth
		With spies abroad, it was not surprising that the inn at Bree was raided by Black Riders that same night, as was the house in Buckland.
		Two days later, the company met the Black Riders at the Ford of Bruinen, but the wraiths were swept away in a flood contrived by Elrond and Gandalf.
		There the Ring would be kept unused as long as the gates could withstand the Enemy's onslaught, or it could be used against Sauron.

		For most of the game, you'll be spending your time at various locations in Middle Earth, either defending or conquering the regions you are in (as a side note, the world map is one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen in a video or computer game.
		The graphics are beautiful- they really bring the Middle Earth world to life, especially with the settings maxed out.

	Silver Oak Bookstore - Features - Fifty Yards from Middle Earth
		It wasn't quite the depths of Mordor, but the weather in March 2000 would have done justice to the dead marshes at Sauron's gates.
		For a couple of days in mid-shoot, the floor of the Ellice St. quarry was dotted with dead branches and clumps of tussock grass, and used for some second-unit shots.
		Just before filming was scheduled to finish we got a notice in our mailbox to say that Jackson's Three Foot Six Limited film company would be filming in the quarry for three days in late December 2000, and that our cooperation as affected residents would be appreciated.
