"Evil cannot create. It can only distort that which is good"- Tolkien ( we all know this will be a massive abomination)

The Lord of the Rings has no nudity. The Lord of the Rings needs no nudity.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said the fans. “So do I,” said the drinker, “and so do all who live to see such times.

Lord of the Rings is “High Fantasy”. It focuses on virtue, heroism, and other moral principles. Game of Thrones is of the “Low Fantasy” genre and focuses on grit and more human impulses than ideals. Not to say one is a better genre than the other, but to try to adapt one into the other is idiotic at best.

With Christopher's passing, there is no longer anyone to protect Tolkien's legacy from being butchered

New LotR show: "Sire, the orcs are at the gates!" "Well don't be racist... Let them in!"
-
Lol, Lord of the Rings trilogy isn't just one of the best book-adapted films to have ever been made. It's arguably one of the greatest trilogies/individual movies ever made. Period.

"Tolkien's old-fashioned wholesome idealistic view doesn't fit in particularly well to today's weird nihilistic postmodern creative wasteland where nothing is right or wrong, nobody is good or evil, and nothing we do means anything" ... this resume all the problems with what ROP propose.

I’m black and I really don’t want to see them make it “diverse” bc this is European lore.

As far as I’m concerned, the extended cut of LOTR is the only cut of LOTR

"If this show follows the current trend, it'll probably paint Sauron as the misunderstood hero." The Critical Drinker foreshadowing Rings of Power. And I still can't believe they did that.

Amazon: (makes woke LOTR for $1 bil) Original LOTR movies: Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power.
-
"All Sauron wanted was to marry his gay lover." -- This new show, probably

As much as I love boobs, they just don’t belong in Tolkien’s stuff.

There was an old rule in the movie business: If the story is good then the movie will be good, so you had to find a good story and try to make a movie out of it. Now instead you are supposed to hire a diverse cast (no matter how good or bad, just diverse) and see what story you have to mutilate to make it fit with that cast. And that's how you get that... thing.

Judging by how Amazon slaughtered Robert Jordan's Wheel Of Time book series, I expect nothing but a "woke" disaster.
-
The Fan base: "Throw it into the fire!" Corporations: "No"

Too bad the Tolkien Estate couldn't shut this project down after Christopher's passing. Lord of the Rings doesn't need nudity Wasn't expecting this many likes. Thank you

"Yeah, romantic relationships were still a thing" Proceeds to show Gimli and Legolas. Good one, that got me cracking up.
