Really?
the eternal anglo
The should really stick to the roads. Especially if there are guerillas in the area.
I assumed oliphants were just what they called elephants when I read the book
>killed by one arrow to the head
and how were they even a threat??
What are they?
It's Oliphaunt and the technical name in universe was Mûmakil
wouldn't a steam train be a much easier way of moving guys around? They seem to have the technology to build all sorts of things like minas tirith. Steam power shouldn't be too much of a stretch.
legolas literally says "elephont" in the show
This
Also, middle-earth is not a fantasy world - it's Earth, but in pre-history
THEY'RE CALLED OLIPHONTS YOU FUCKING PSUED
elephants don't even get close to this size. They are also really delicate, hard to look after, and hard to train. Thats why horses are used by almost everyone. It's clearly a different species.
Mumakil are just biggers Oliphaunts
>doesn't know that they're actually called Mûmakil
Elephants can be big or small it depends on how much free space they have. Left to themselves they would grow into giant mammoths in Africa if it weren't for the humans restricting their habitats

Stop reading genre fiction. Now.
your clip is the gay hobbit gardner saying "olly font" aka oliphaunt.
In the original draft of The Hobbit there was a train in the Shire, and Bilbo contemplated a trip to China.
Oliphant is an nickname for them used by uneducated hicks from the Shire
donkeys
They were, essentially. They made them more fantastical for the films because they were going to be in an extended scene involving killing them in battle.

>watch King Arthur by Guy Ritchie
>first scene is thousand foot tall elephants in medieval UK
Orcs were pritty advanced in the books desu. Less like evil demons or whatever and more like dirty industrial workers
>get olliephaunt
>get it to kill me m8s mum
>now it's a mumakil
simple as
Is Elephont better or worse than Westeros?
Thousand feet tall elephants would be cool if its a fantasy setting.
the roads were laden with IEDs from Sunni Haradrim insurgents
>swarthy brown people from sandnigger land
>call them "Swertings"
uhhh I think this guy might be a racist
Oliphants is the name of the animal in universe.
Mumakils are what the military units are called when they are weaponized.

What's wrong with Westeros? Is it named after a place in real life?
