Sauron vs. Tom Bombadil
Here is a video I created a little over a year ago. I used to run a BFME mod and while messing with some models, animations/rigging, etc. I decided I'd create an answer to the age-old question of what would happen if Sauron and Tom Bombadil ever met.
Since many here are Tolkien fans (of course!) I thought you might all enjoy it as much as I did when I made it.

Thank you. I'd like to come up with a video with LotRO, but still trying to figure out what I can do given the locked camera positioning. Originally Posted by Ayrolen

For those who haven't seen the original Men Without Hats music video, I figured Tom Bombadil, "Safety Dance", and a major battle would be a very fun conflux of events.Sauron vs. Tom Bombadil ♪♫A fun what-if video I hope lightens your day♫♪

Re: Sauron vs. Tom Bombadil
That was great. You surely get rep for that, o provoker of many lols.
I can't get over how awesome the final scene is with the orcs, men of Gondor, Sauron, and Tom all dancing in alternating circles around the hill.Last edited by TheOneRinger; May 05 2010 at 06:48 PM.

Re: Sauron vs. Tom Bombadil
Hehe, that was actually one of my favorite scenes to script. Though the video took a number of days to rig, code, set-up, scripts, etc., even a year+ later it is still my favorite modding projects I've done. Originally Posted by TheOneRinger
