Gandalf killed himself in the Destruction of the Balrog, and then CAME BACK to aid in the destruction of the greatest evil to ever face his world. Hagrid was there mainly for comic relief.

[–]bangalangs 2 points3 points ago

Hagrid=Drunkard from the Harry Potter movies/books. Mostly appears where comic relief is needed, and the only times that he does magic dont end well for anyone....Gandalf= Symbolic Christ-like figure from the LOTR movies/books and the Hobbit. Uses wit and cunning to turn three trolls to stone, kills himself whilst taking down the Balrog, COMES BACK from that, shatters the staff of a wizard who was once his superior, kills countless Orcs in assorted battles, crowns Aragorn, assists the Hobbits in their quest, and gets to ride Shadowfax. Gandalf. WIN.

R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-REPOST

[–]Skateaton -1 points0 points ago

How come when I point out a repost I'm downvoted to hell and back but you aren't?

[–]WheatleyLabs 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, but Gandalf actually graduated, and has all the proper wizarding qualifications. So while Hagrid may have "swag" or "street cred" Gandalf has "job prospects" and the middle earth equivalent of a "401k"..... Also repost, so much repost.

This is part of the scene of Harry Potter: Reload that Gandalf shot the gamma rays and saved Annikan from falling into the Jumanji board.

[–]Thameus -5 points-4 points ago

Came here to say Gandalf sure looks like Hagrid. Edit: oh wait, that's not supposed to be Gandalf!
