The NCD crossover I didn’t know I needed
Pippen couldn’t even handle a dragon firework. If he had access to a nuke he’d have leveled the Shire immediately.
Could the Ring survive a nuclear blast?
I am guessing yes.
It was mentioned by Gandolf that there were no dragons left who had the fire to destroy the One Ring. Presumably, you just have to get it hot enough, and a nuclear bomb just might.
Oh that is a very interesting. I would think 100 million degrees celsius would be hotter then your average dragon.
He’s nuking Mordor though, not the Ring. Mordor wouldn’t survive, but Sauron probably would survive, since his fate is tied to the Ring, which hasn’t been destroyed. So Pippin didn’t really do anything other than kill some orcs and trolls.
I know it isn’t like this in the books but if you killed every single orc and glassed Mordor, and Sauron doesn’t have a body and can’t retake one without the ring…what’s he going to do? Turn his shitty eye and shoot bad vibes at your forever? Just don’t live near him (you glassed it anyways ). Pretty funny to think of Sauron still alive but utterly impotent because all his servants are dead and he’s still disembodied.
Yeah but I am talking about nuking the ring itself. Like you mentioned Sauron is tied to the ring, and destroying the ring will kill him. Would a nuke take out the ring?
Oh, I was working from your premise that the Ring could survive a nuke. If it can’t, then Sauron is dies too.
I guess it depends on how the Ring can be destroyed. Is it purely a matter of temperature, or does Mount Doom have some extra special magic?
That’s some Galaxy Brain Tolkien shit right there, man.
How about sending some Terminators back in time to kill Sauron before he gains power?
