'...and Tolkien readers have debated it for 23 years' https://3dvf.com/en/jackson-cut-the-book-s-real-ending-and-tolkien-readers-have-debated-it-for-23-years/ Agree or disagree? For myself I agree, but only because the film trilogy was never set up to have a Scouring. But I disagree that the...

They absolutely waited until Christopher kicked the bucket. Is nothing sacred? CL.

Does Eowyn even get to have any lines in that book? I remember she being a mute in Two Towers book, until Return of the King book happened. Where she got more lines to say, and a falling in love with Aragorn, before he politely dismisses that affection. But in Two Towers. From my memory...

There is scene in the 2 towers when the people of Rohan are going to Helm's deep. Gimli is talking to Eowyn and she asks how they differentiate female dwarves from males. Aragorn tries to be funny telling her without Gimli noticing that it's the beard. The thing is, it is not. Tolkien...

Hello everyone, this is my first thread. Anyone knows the plant that was actually used in the Lotr or Hobbit movies as Athelas? I even started a stackexchange thread on this topic and in a few hours there are already a bunch of people trying to figure it out from the pictures, but if anyone has...

https://screenrant.com/rings-of-power-better-lord-of-the-rings-movies/#rings-of-power-makes-sauron-a-more-interesting-character Interesting article from ScreenRant. :) So, what do you think of it? I still haven't watched Barbie movie, so I can't list 888 reason why it's better then ROP, but...

I felt this is what Hobbit book was about. Adventure but also a childrens story. And overall relaxing atmosphere. I recorded it from my PS2. A very underrated game in my view published by Sierra in 2003.

I remember i was so hyped when this was new back in maybe 2011 or 2012, it came around that time probably. But then i saw the movie poster... and something was off THE BEARDS! O_O. No full blown beards. I can be ok with the edgy black cloaks as a director take on it, but... removing full...

Over the years since the movies first came out (dear lord it's been, at least 20 now! 😱) folks who have both seen the movie AND read the books, and know that I have done both, have asked me what I thought about PJ's movie. I have said (and continue to say) PJ got it about 80% right and about...

Now i have heard audiobooks "Some that JRR Tolkien did himself" and Gollum tends to sound very much like a limp froglike creature, like he is almost pathethic really with the vibe you get from Gollum. 14:14 But Gollum that is in Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings movies, sounds very alike to...

I have been a fantasy nerd since I was five years old, and Dungeons & Dragons (the old kind, where you die and suck it up like a man) is the catalyst for that. Robert E. Howard came along for me in my teens and, between that and Nietzsche, I've never stopped being interested in ubermensch with...

Good evening all, Just saw this article on Google News. https://www.cbr.com/christopher-tolkien-disliked-peter-jackson-lord-of-the-rings-movies/ Apparently Christopher Tolkien was not a fan of the Peter Jackson LOTR trilogy. I was not aware of this but perhaps I'm just out of the loop. Rings...

So, looking through the forum, there is a lot of negativity regarding PJ's movies. Of course - they left much to be desired, but what do y'all think that the films portrayed/did particularly well? Personally, I really enjoyed the Nazgul. As a nine-year-old, watching the movies for the first...

Not sure what this will mean for tolkien related games but... https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/10/tech/unity-weta-digital-deal-hnk-intl/index.html New Delhi (CNN Business)"The Lord of the Rings" director Peter Jackson is selling most of his visual effects studio Weta Digital to Unity, which makes...

I think he did it smart on that one. In the book Gollum is depicted as dark. But realistically if you were in a cave with no sunlight, being pale is most likely to be a thing. But in Fellowship of the Ring movie, Gollum is depicted as dark looking in that one. And then Two Towers is when you...

I remember when I listened to Fellowship's commentary (I was already sick with the flu at the time so figured it couldn't make me any worse) and PJ said something about "Legolas didn't know death." Elves do die, maybe not from old age but there's no way Legolas didn't know death. This is just...

Please note that I am only talking about the first film here. I know allot of people have similar problems with the An Unexpected Journey as they do the other instalments in the Hobbit trilogy however I do not think they are comparable. People like to compare the dwarves surviving their...
