Jackson was ahead of his time. Truly a visionary
I literally just got done watching the trilogy on a whim. Now im seeing LOTR threads popping up everywhere. Am I in the matrix?
>tfw you'll never get to see a high budget lotr production by PJ where they recreate the menu/maggoty bread-scene except that instead of devolving into fighting it turns into a gokkun/bukkake scene where the uruk-hai force the smaller orcs to swallow and snowball gallons of uruk cum and then the rohirrim come and they join in on the action too and sometimes when the camera shifts to another angle you can see merry and pippin suck each other off slightly in the background

Why didn't Aragon just used a Tax policy in trade to destroy Sauron fiancailly?

There's pretty much always a LOTR thread on this board
>yfw Sauron was an orc right's activist trying to find a safe home for them away from their volcanic wasteland
>yfw Aragorn and the fellowship were racists who genocided orc babies and were the real villains all along
Was Tolkein ahead of his time in reversing fantasy tropes?
>...they don't need those
What did he mean by this?
Pretty depressing that Fellowship was made 16 years ago and yet the genre hasn't broken out with multiple high quality adapations or original works. We've literally had what? LoTR and then GoT tv show. When is holywood going to get their shit together and release some abitious beautiful unique movies?
Why haven't they made a Sabriel/Abhorsen movie?
Or a Magician/Rift War series?
What else is missing lads? What's some good fantasy series that should've been made into movies/shows 5 or 10 years ago?

You really want to see them butcher Feist's books? Remember the shitty Sword of Truth tv series? Or the Shannara one? Or GoT post season 2?
Is anyone else really bothered that Jackson reduced Sauron to being a giant disembodied eye on top of a tower? One of my favorite parts in the book is the section with the Mouth of Sauron because it makes Sauron feel like a real threat; he sends a guy out to negotiate, taunt, and offer terms to a foreign army, and the Mouth keeps talking about how he has to report back to his boss. It really made Sauron feel like a tangible threat, and not the vague presence he was in the movies.
THESE ASSETS ARE TO BE TRANSFERRED TO SARUMAN INC., PACKAGED AND FULLY VALUED.

I don't remember Sauron having a corporeal form in the books. I do remember descriptions of the evil eye though.

Surely there's a competent director floating around that would like to put their mark on the industry by making a good film like Jackson did? Is the industry just too fucked as a whole
>>87420298
Isn't it exactly the same in the book? Or do you mean that in the movie the eye doesn't really do much whereas in the book it's obviously directing & talking to its generals etc? Didn't post Last Alliance Sauron teach the orcs how to act like a proper army or something? (Metal work, siege craft etc)
>>87415510
Book:
>But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund’s daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him.”
Movie:
>"I AM NO MAN *autistic screeching*
Bravo Peter
>>87420446
>do you mean that in the movie the eye doesn't really do much whereas in the book it's obviously directing & talking to its generals etc?
Yeah, that's exactly what I mean. In the books it's really obvious that he exists and is actively involved in the war.
>>87420414
Off the op of my head, it's implied that Sauron personally tortured Gollum and Gollum says he has four fingers. The Mouth also talks about his boss sitting in the tower, and how he speaks directly to him. I never got the impression he was supposed to be a disembodied eye, the eye is just his symbol.
>>87420799
I remember Frodo seeing the see in his mind. I mean Sauron never shows up in the books so I think Jackson handled his depiction pretty well. The audience needs something visual.
>>87420635
>In the appendices it's implied Gandalf drove out Sauron from Dol Goldur with the aid of Saruman
>In the Hobbit movies Galadriel one shots Sauron by herself
BRAVO HACKSON!

I don't get it. How does one fight nine giant monstas and not come out already burnt and smashed to a crisp?
