In Lord Of The Rings, are the Uru-kai the result of cross breeding between Orcs !


Question: In Lord Of The Rings, are the Uru-kai the result of cross breeding between Orcs and Goblins or Golbin-Men!?
In LOTR (The Two Towers), Gandalf says that Saruman is breeding Orcs with Goblin Men to create the stronger Uru-kai breed!.

I just want to ask, are the Goblin Men the creatures from the first movie (Fellowship Of The Ring), when the fellowship is in the mines of Moria and they're being chased by like hundreds of armor-clad creatures!? (The fellowship gets surrounded by them, but then the Balrog of Morgorth comes and they get scared and run away, allowing the fellowship to escape)

Were those creatures Goblins or Goblin Men!? And were they the creatures that Saruman was breeding with Orcs to create the Uru-kai!?

I guess another way to ask my question is - are the terms Goblins and Golbin Men referring to the same creatures!?Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
The Uru-kai are the result of cross breeding between Orcs and Goblins!.

The Orcs are Elves that had been captured by Sauron, and were tortured until their forms were horribly disfigured, and their minds were twisted by Sauron's lies, until they despised anything having to do with elves!.
The creatures that chased the fellowship in Moria ( Fellowship of the Ring ) have many different terms but all are the same ( Moria Orcs, Goblins and goblin men)!. Saruman was taking those Goblins and Sauron's Orcs and cross breading them into Uru-kai!.



Hope that answers your questions!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i freakin' love LOTR!
shakesperean and baybay are correct!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Orcs and straight up goblins!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Orcs are descendants of enslaved elves that were twisted into ugly, horrible sadistic things!. --Tolkien has been writing about them since before he wrote Lord of the Rings!.

I've also been under the impression that Orcs are man-made elves (made by Morgoth--this might have been mentioned in the LotR trilogy when delving into the elves history)!. A humanoid creature meant to mimic the grace and agility of the elves but failing miserably under the influence of something so corrupt and evil!.

Uruk-hai are the elitist orcs!. In "The Silmirrillian" Morgoth (that story's equivalent of Sauron--he's the one that enslaved the elves) controls the orcs, and it hints somewhere in Tolkien's works (maybe The Two Towers) that he had bred orcs with men, and that Sauron was following in his footsteps!.

Saruman the wizard actually took this idea and made improvements, making the orcs--the ones you see in the movie--more dangerous and deadly!. The Uruk-hai!.

It's been a while since I've read Tolkien, but I want to say that Goblin Men are not full-blooded orcs, but they are related!. And I don't think they were bred to make Uruk-hai, as they are the weaker species!.

The order of rank/bloodline is:
Goblin Men < Orcs < Uruk-haiWww@Enter-QA@Com
