Tree of the Week

Don't go thinking i've forgotten about this feature, no sirey, no was jóse. Here we go for tree of the week #2

TREEBEARD

To quote wikipedia
"Treebeard Fangorn is a fictional character from J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. He is the oldest of the Ents, tree-like beings who are the "shepherds of trees". Very tall and stiff-limbed, with bark-like skin and leafy hair, he befriends Merry and Pippin after they escape from orcs. Under their influence, he causes the downfall and imprisonment of Saruman, the head of the Istari. He lives in the Forest of Fangorn, which is named after him, or he after it."


Treebeard was sad to hear that nobody bothered reading far enough to know about him

I can't pretend that i'm a Lord of the Rings geek; having started reading the trilogy only to give up during the Two Towers (god they were so boring!!) But i can remember Treebeard and his mates being COMPLETE BADASSES in the film, and being mates with Merry and Pippin... which in itself puts him on the Tree of the Week list.

Also, with a name like 'Treebeard', how could you not love him? Treebeard. For fucks sake....
