New Lord of the Rings Amazon series promises more diversity

Lol. the whole idea of hobbits was that they lived in a quaint village sameness all the time like Amish/Mennonites and anyone who was 'different' was immediately frowned upon.


Why are cosmopolitan shithole-dwellers so insecure they need to force themselves where they dont fit?

So f'n dumb

tolkien explicitly stated that The Silmarillion (and later the entire Legendarium) were aimed to be a mythological construct for England. He believed that unlike the Greeks, Norse, or the various Germanic people, the English had no specific mythology attached to their culture.

Middle earth WAS MEANT AS A PREHISTORY OF NORTHWEST EUROPE

why would you have asians and blacks in such a narrative?

Also, lotr explicitly has swarthy men who are supposed to represent southern europe, and men of harad/khand meant to represent middle east and near asian steppes.

It doesn’t mention anything about trans inclusion but hopefully we'll see some sort of Orc or Elve that explores different gender identities, possibly a pansexual or even a post op non cis male to female trans hobbit.

I don't give any shits how diverse the Hobbits or peoples of Middle Earth are. I'm a huge Tolkien fan and I love the movies but the books even more.

Sounds like this Amazon series is maybe trying to focus on the early world notes from the Silmarillion, maybe?

I might even give the series a watch, if not for the fact that since SJW infiltration has reached the point of having to point out how "inclusive" they are... it's only a matter of time before Bilbo's great-great-great-uncle is packing fudge with the plow boy next door.

Tolkien's world of elves, men, dwarves and halflings certainly had its problems with corruption, fear and weakness among the "good" races, but it was based on underlying morality... The dwarves would've never carved the great subterranean halls of Khazad-dum if they'd have been busy puffing peters. The early elves of Gondolin would never have perfected the smiting of the most strong and immaculate armor and weapons if they spent all their time browning weenies. Angmar King of the North would have laid waste to all other lands if the men of the West had chosen to ignore the actual evil in the world, and instead focus on not hurting other people's feelings.

In Tolkien's world, the beings of the world fought against evil because they had to. In modern America, people embrace it openly.

Hopefully, Amazon makes sure to include some disabled hobbits and mentally handicapped wizards.

Please tell me it's going to be nothing but black tranny Muslums in wheelchairs

Man they’re just openly being racist. It’s a political way of saying, “we need fewer white people.”

At some point white people are gonna get sick of this forced diversity BS.

Will there be any massively overweight people, like over 500 pounds? What about very elderly people in wheel chairs? Any people from Mongolia, Afghanistan, IsIS, etc?
Where does it end?

So when Boyz in the Hood 2 come out, I better damn well see some Chinese and white kids living in Compton…..
