Lord of the Rings

No social media for complete fucking morons to voice their opinions

because it wasn't made in America or Britain. if it was it would be very different.

It was a good time in history.

Don't you remember this scene?

He could defeat Gandalf but this woman with little strength and with the help of a Hobbit can kill him.

>>87254160
It was s simpler time.

It saddens me to know that this wouldn't of gotten made today. Peter Jackson was lucky with timing.

>>87254297
But they stuck to their retard forums and didn't have instant access to people making the movies.

>>87254160
they were 4 women you forgot the girl sam marry and have children

>>87254297
yeah but only real niggas used it. now anybody and their mom can spew their stupid bullshit online.

>>87254160
No social media and internet basically was only just by turbo autists back then. So complete retards and women didn't have any platform to say anything.

>>87254160

who was fucking galadriel?

Hobbits were minorities

>>87254160
It was just fantasy for white male neckbeards, we know better now.

>>87254322
In the books Gandalf pwned this bitch with ease and Eowyn killing him is in the source material.

Back when stories based on books/historical events didn't have blacks and women shoved into them for the sake of ticking quota boxes.

>>87254398
Yeah that's true, but it was stupid as fuck... TOlkien was a feminism.

The anti-orc racism was fairly appalling.

In the book Merrys sword is magical and renders the Witch King vulnerable. Pretty sure it has absolutely nothing to do with gender

>>87254297
and? Social media didn't.

>>87254160
>no gays
Pic unrelated, rite?

>>87254448
it will always bother me how jackson cast the most ugly looking males as elves and then slap female costumes/make up on them. They look like trans and not in a good way, should have cast some twink boys for that job

>>87254553
Gandalf isn't gay

>>87254160
The cancer was already there. Arwen going out and mounting a horse because she iz STRONK and INDEPENDUND instead of staying the fuck at home, obeying her father and knitting Aragorn's banner was the first symptom of the west's decline

>>87254322
Merry's dagger had an enchantment to be anti-nazgul, then teh whitch king took a dagger to the knee and that's that

>>87254557
Celeborn shouldn't look like a fucking twink

so incredibly based

>>87254599
Arwen going out and mounting a horse happened because it's far easier to explain and way less convoluted than what happens in the book.

>>87254322
>Slow moving, boss that monologues
>One hit kill

pretty simple if you ask me.

>>87254448
Galadriel was more important than her cuck husband, though, so how is that "relegated to romance interest"?

threads like these were made before the elections retard. and if you think coming here during the elections is somehow better than coming after the election you need to know that you are wrong.

>>87254530
The prophecy said 'his end is far from here and not by the hand of man shall he fall'. It refers to Merry because he is not of the race of men but the witch king took it to himself to imply that no man could kill him. Eowyn is just misinterpreting it as well.

LOTR threads were far, far better two or three years ago. If you think a bunch of political shit flinging and whining about modern casting decisions is a good LOTR thread, you're either new or a complete retard. Furthermore, if you're fine with the current state of /tv/, you are doubly retarded.

>>87254693
all the women needs to be sexy white women (mostly blonde) and the heroes needs to be big blacks

>All orcs will be white males

i´m okay with this

Reportedly, tolkien read the part in macbeth where "No man that’s born of woman" will defeat him - except
"Macduff was from his mother’s womb
Untimely ripped."
Tolkien thought he should simply have been defeated by a woman - as eowyn does, not because it takes a woman to kill the witch king, but because she was at the right place when merrys magical dagger struck. (Added how merry was "not entirely a man either".)

>>87255018
I don't want to trigger any women by making the females too sexy or white

niggas the whole movie is about the weak being worth and conquering the strong through corage
makes sense the little hobbit who wants to go to war and the woman who wants to help her friends kill the witch king desu

orcs are muslims

You misunderstand. I didn't come here to get offended, but I also didn't come here to read a bunch of people whining about identity politics. I guess that's ok me though. Shouldn't have expected anything less from this board.

What a fantastic series. Truly.

I wish the silmarillion would be given a series like got, just stick to the source material and do not deviate. Tolkien created a world with endless plot you can find anywhere. Ahh what a sight to be hold, morgoth the dark one standing outside his keep of angbad doing battle with the elf king. Truly a season finally to behold. When will Tolkien work become public domain?

People understood that the evil portrayed is evil personified, like in fairytales. But then a trend started where people wanted more realistic and morally gray villains with stuff like pic related being the prime example where suddenly she needed a tragic backstory and sympathy instead of just being fairytale evil.

It would have been a nice touch if, throughout the movie, subtle instances where the audience might have reason to doubt the narrator's authenticity would crop up, never really letting you know if what's being portrayed is an accurate representation of the events instead of the rushed, ham-fisted method they went with at the end of LOL I'M SLEEPING BEAUTY AND THIS IS 100% EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED, SHE WAS A GOOD GIRL ALL ALONG DON'T QUESTION IT

>>87256605
its possible but i dont think so. Major reboots recently that have upped the diversity shit are all expanding existing stories (like star wars) No one wants a remake of the original star wars trilogy, we just have execs milking the franchise for $$$

LOTR cant be expanded as theres no source stuff beyond the silmarillion. I can see some attempt at making a film of that stuff if Christopher T dies and the next IP owners dont give a fuck, but i doubt it. Besides alot of the Silmarillion is 2complicated4casuals But if they did it and made THAT a diversity inclusive work it would be just as bad as a LOTR remake
