You’re right. It’s Tolkien’s story, and that’s why we’re angry. They had to wait until his son Christopher died for the grandkids to sell out like whores.

Sons of Feanor?

That’s my best guess. Also guessing that the fiery scene Galadriel is shown is the First Kinslaying

Yeah, but not everything alluring and seductive is based on sex. The snake in the Garden of Eden for instance is alluring and seductive promising them great knowledge. With Sauron it is based on power. Sauron is all about control and is capable of convincing you that he can allow you to control literally anything, including immortality. That’s where he comes from and why you and all those “superfans” do not truly understand Lord of the Rings.
Sauron is also about deception and that’s why he appears as Annatur in the first place. We know the rings promised immortality and power that’s in the first 10 minutes of FOTR. It’s not some deep true fan dive. But what did he look like? Attractive people are more persuasive. How people react to that character will be different

And he does that by promising them power… Your point?

No, they didn’t. The One could prolong life and the Nine were a trap to turn one into a wraith making you living nor dead. It’s also unclear if the Nazgûl still had the Nine rings on them after being turned to wraiths. The Elves were already immortal, and the Dwarven Rings did not make you immortal.

Because you think it may have something to do with sex. Sure Sauron was fair, but it’s not like everyone was trying to bang him. It’s all about power.

No that’s Amazon doing that. Compare that to Jackson saying this wasn’t his story and he wasn’t going to make any major changes that are antithetical to Tolkien’s work and he didn’t assume things about Tolkien on anything he didn’t say like these assclowns are doing. If you disagree that Tolkien never intended this, you are slandered as a racist.

I don’t think he would have been this pissed either. He probably did not foresee streaming services our huge Movie franchises. The Silmarillion wasn’t even published when he died.
Also for all the dick sucking you do of Peter Jackson, the hobbit was a less faithful than the fricking Cartoon version. But tell
Me why a black elf is worse than the 5 o'clock shadow dwarf/elf romances

Tolkien would have been pissed at the Jackson trilogy, specifically leaving out the Scouring of the Shire. Christopher Tolkien did hate the Jackson trilogy. While I think they would have added the Scouring of the Shire to the Extended Edition if they knew in advance how successful those were going to be, if Tolkien and his son hated those wonderful movies, then they sure as fricking shite would hate this. Just Galadriel having a sword would be dumbfounding to the two of them and is an insult to Galadriel’s power.

Oh Tolkien could see movie franchises coming. He wasn’t retarded.

Because it wasn’t truly complete. He intended for the Silmarillion to be part of the Lord of the Rings, but his publisher passed on that, which was probably a good move by them.

But that was due to the fricking studios demanding that he make it a trilogy when there was not enough material to do it. He pulled off all the scenes he needed to get right and then winged the rest since he wasn’t given enough time and they wanted way too much footage out of Jackson. And you want an example of Jackson’s transparency, here he was being honest with the fans on what happened and why I don’t blame him specifically for the Hobbit being a mess: YouTube

You’re right Chris cobbled it together with another writer because Chris loves
Money.
It was also a good move by them because they wanted a novel not the Middle
earth Bible.

Ok so maybe this isn’t the fricking measuring stick you keep holding it up to be because the LOTR trilogy was awesome
The first trailer looks good.
You’re upset because a gay guy on a panel though Sauron was hot?
What do you think he should look like? The big armored giant in the LOTR movies? It’s hard to trust that guy even if he promises powers

Eat a fricking dick, dude. This sentence is all anyone needs to know that you’re not a Tolkien fan. In fact it’s enough to show that you despise Tolkien by insulting his son and partner in this universe. In fact Christopher drew all the maps for Middle Earth.
Christopher cherished his father’s legacy and treated his father’s texts as truly sacred. Insulting Christopher Tolkien is over the line. That post is bookmarked for anytime you have the audacity and balls to claim to be a fan. That post deserves a million downvotes.

There are definitely people who read books and feel like the only think that could be good would be a page by page remake.
With the time frame they are doing, it would be impossible to make it page for page for page take on it. There has to be a pretty large amounts of "fill in the gap" subject matter. I just hope they get what is there to use right. Which is still a good bit.
I have no confidence they can do that, but that trailer did look good. Although having Galadriel as a battle warrior is pretty stupid.

Trailer changes nothing for me, I’m still beyond skeptical with all the shite that’s come out. Especially that “super fans” woke shite video.
Ok great, the CGI is great. Good job. Is that all it takes for everyone to change their minds?

More high horsing and Pearl clutching.
How many posthumous books this they pump out?
How many movie licenses?
This deal with Amazon was made in 2017. Who was running the trust at that time?
Apparently now you don’t only have to like the books but you have to love Tolkiens som as your own too.
Not his grandkids because someone has
To be the sellout

You just directly insulted Christopher Tolkien calling him a money whore when Christopher is a major factor on why the universe is so good and deep. Where do you get the balls to call yourself a Lord of the Rings fan after saying that? You’re cherishing this universe is being burnt to the ground because actively dislike this universe for not being woke enough. frick you, a-hole.
