I wish Denethor tried to freeze himself and Faramir.
ok then.

Denethor desides in all his wisdom that the best bonding expirience ever would be to try an freeze to death with his son. Beeing so wise he soon realises that he does not have the means to do so in Gondor, therefor he takes Faramir with him to the north of the Misty Mountains to die. While they are there Denethor realises that he does not like Faramir at all and desides that it would be better to leave him. The result of this is of course that Faramir looses all his toes do to the frost and later looses in a game of bowling to a random worm.

I wish that Aragorn used his pants as a hat

Granted.

You'd be pleased to know that Aragorn doesn't have another pair of pants so Arda is blind.


I wish Huan was treated for worms.

Whatever you say, Jim.

Huan is treated for worms. But, he has an appointment with his doctor at the exact time he was supposed to fight Sauron. Unfortunately, he dies of worms (somehow) during the battle, and Sauron eats luthien. Beren is eaten by a wolf. Doriath doesn’t fall due to Thingol's lust for the Silmarill, but it does because he burns all the trees in his despair.
Nice.

I wish a Barrow Wight had decided to be good and helped Frodo out on the adventure.

1-2-3. Granted. A Barrow Wight decides to help Frodo on the adventure. As this is a particularly influential Barrow Wight, all of the other Wights follow to help Frodo. This is quite beneficial for the Hobbits on the Quest; however, since Tom Bombadil no longer has an audience for his poetry with the Downs deserted, he goes insane and rampages through the Shire shouting poems, leading the the discovery that Bombadil was, in fact, e.e. cummings in disguise.

I wish the Ringwraiths had crossed the Bruinen successfully.

That they do! Unfortunately (for them) they do it five years too late and miss the War of the Ring.

I wish Sauron had a small dog, called Jim.

Granted. Jim ruins the floor of Barad-Dur and is never quiet. A "mutiny" occurs and the orcs overthrow Sauron simply to get rid of that blasted dog.


I wish that a hurricane hit Middle-Earth.

Andit was so. A hurricane takes a large swing at Middle Earth. But, of course, Orome isn't very happy about this, and so he sounds his horn and hits the hurricane back. There then erupts a huge fight in which all the Valar get involved and confusion mounts when Melko joins in. Even ten hours after the hurricane has departed, the fight continues until the fight causes more devastation than any hurricane could have been.

I wish Gandalf and Radagast had their own spin off show.

I wish Sauron wasn't evil.

Your wish is granted. That means the Lord of the Rings was never written. Instead Tolkien wrote The White Hand. It's about a renegade Maia who tries to take over Middle-earth. When PJ turned it into a movie he turned Saruman into a literal white hand.

I wish Tolkien recorded how old Durin the Deathless was when he died.

Granted, however, becuase this appears to be a contradiction in terms, everyone gets confused and decides to hurl themselves off bridges... erm... onto... your house... or something.

I wish The Argonath had been showing a thumbs up rather than an open palm .

Granted. But then the Argonath were structurally unstable in their hands which happened to collapse on the Fellowship's boats, causing them all to drown in the Anduin.

I wish that Denethor would not have gone crazy so Gandalf could have saved Theoden from the Witch-King.
