You don’t discuss anything in good faith.

My argument is continuously Mischaracterized.

I somehow Get blamed for this show being made despite being an attorney in BR.

You ignore my actual arguments when convenient and substitute some other position and then crown yourself some kind of Victor or pretend your opinion is fact.

Nice one, Binger! You will now be known as Binger for the rest of the thread and this site.

Movies are made by the people who want to tell their own stories. Hidden Dragon is a Chinese story which I enjoy. Even if it wasn’t made for me, I could still follow and somewhat relate. You didn’t hear me or anyone else whining about a lack of whiiiiite representation.

I know that Tar Miriel wasn’t thought of or written as a woman of color.

3. Again, is there not more to Tolkien than racial descriptions of characters? Do you not think he offers a lot more than that?


That’s a silly question. He wrote what he wanted to write because that was the story he was trying to tell.

Not the first time he’s threatened someone when they don’t take kindly to trying to prove they are racist.

First, is there a difference between a movie set in historical China and a movie set in a fantasy realm? I think So. I think You can take a few more liberties and I know You don’t agree with that.

Second, No one complained about representation when LOTR came out. Only a fringe of people complain about it now. It’s generally a beloved film.

Ok.

And thisnis why we cannot have a legit conversation.

You won’t even address the basic premise of the conversation which is, how important is race to Tolkien work? Does the whole things fall apart because a character is now black?

That’s a matter of opinion, but I don’t think character race is critical to a lot of what I like about the books.

And again, I’ve asked you before if you were pissed that the dwarves in the hobbit didn’t have brightly Colored beards and cloaks and you laughter that I compared That to skin color.

So is it about what Tolkien wrote or
Is it that you assign importance to skin color?

If my name was actually out there you saying I lynched someone is absolutely slander.

Not pretend slander like you throw around, actual slander.

You tried to get an innocent kid thrown in prison for the rest of his life and slandered him as a racist, Binger. That is your new name.

You are a lying count, Bitch. You have to pretend the people who don’t like you are pathetic to feel Some sense of superiority.

That’s you’re new name.

The whole mythos is absolutely European (and pre-post-colonial forced migration Europe).

I guess I appreciate you making appeals to universalism for it though. Didn’t think your people generally liked to do that.

No, if IRL someone accused my multiple times of lynching someone (as OML does) I would sue them.

Little wordy there, Binger. That’s going to be hard to catch on.
