That line has confounded and delighted fans ever since the movie's release, with a good number of tweets and Reddit comments centering on its seeming anachronisms. "Not only is it out of place, it doesn't even make sense!" complained one confused commenter. But when Snaga pushes it by moving in to murder Merry and Pippin, Ugluk lops off the orc's head and issues a triumphant bellow: "Looks like meat's back on the menu, boys!" Another hangry orc, Grishnakh, proposes maiming the hobbits instead. "They're fresh." This leads Ugluk, an Uruk-hai overlord, to declare that their prisoners are not for eating. An orc named Snaga suggests eating the hobbits. It's nightfall on the edges of the Fangorn Forest and the villainous creatures are hungry. Frodo's hobbit friends Merry and Pippin have been captured by an army of orcs and the enhanced orc leaders known as the Uruk-hai, who believe the two halflings are in possession of the One Ring. The quote comes in a scene near the beginning of The Two Towers, the franchise's second installment, released in 2002.
But one line of dialogue that has been lovingly embraced by the internet still perplexes all these years later. From " One does not simply walk into Mordor" to " Cast it into the stroy it," the list of ways the franchise's scenes, characters and dialogue have been repurposed by fans is longer than the Endless Stair. In the 20 years since Peter Jackson's adaptation of the The Lord of the Rings trilogy kicked off, the movies have provided fodder for memes time and time again.
