This is some really old, dry, and stale bait but I'm taking it anyways.

It's correct, Warcraft was written by a bunch of young, white nerds fresh out of college twenty or so years ago and adapted over time, where as LoTR was written by Tolken a long time ago.

Also hilarious how Jones is using 'white male' to describe Tolkien as if he, himself, isn't a 'white male'.

>>
He isn't wrong.

Blizzard was creating a fiction in their games made to appeal to both male and female players and an international audience.

And despite his literary merits, Tolkien was writing a book with a very Britbong male perspective.

The books are a sausage fest. Plus they are overly British. Which, aren't a good or bad thing if you ask me, but are a characteristic. So getting fantasy with different author views makes the field not so homogenous and that is good for any market.

Also, I remember teachers talking about Tolkien in English and religion classes and how he was mostly into linguistics and the story and world building spun out of that almost as a secondary result. Almost. He was into world building and mythology and theology.

He converted C.S. Lewis by saying that theology and religion is merely a mythology we believe in.

>>
>>69948694
How the fuck is Warcraft supposed to appeal to more races? Are Jamaicans supposed to identify with the trolls who are literally one giant joke about them?

And as for "diversity," every character to have some semblance of an active role in the time period the movie takes place in is a fucking white male or an orc who correlate to no race... unless you expect somebody to relate to killing machines hopped up on demon juice.

>>69949399
I will agree the internet does help in some ways, but in others it merely provides another outlet for propaganda.

Look at Facebook and the recent news that they've been censoring conservative views/news in their 'tending' feeds.

Look at how Google recently lionized a supporter of Marxism who praised Osama Bin Laden.

Look at Reddit and their recent history of censoring viewpoints they don't agree with.

The internet gives more people a voice, but the ones who are most powerful still hold the most influence and continue to have their voices heard online at the expense of others. It's just that instead of being brainwashed only by people on television, we are being brainwashed by Silicon Valley nerds -- both doing the government's dirty work (or their own if they're good little comrades).

He isn't wrong about Warcraft's many races. He worded it like a numale cuck, though. Knocking Tolkien will only get you laughed at when your movie's only redeeming quality is the action instead of the writing.

He's also wrong about Warcraft women not having to be santily clad. You need at least a few of them in tight outfits. Even the women that play WoW use slutmogs on their characters and hate Sylvanas getting a new armor piece. Police a nerd fantasy game to PC standards, fail miserably.

I think it will be fine, but its not a complete emulation of WoW, where you're going to find scantily clad outfits.

The same reason Marvel isn't going to have their actresses dress up literally like characters/whores, they want the "semi realistic" nature like Nolan did with Batman.

Its just business logic, not SJW logic.

China's population alone should put them at the top of the violence list. What with the "gendercide", the communist past, the pollution, still not freeing Tibet, past torture practices, and terrible work conditions.

Africa is a pretty good candidate as well. They have always practiced slavery and still do, cut off limbs of sickly or different people for witch doctor "medicines", purposefully spread AIDs, rape and maim children or enlist them into guerilla groups, still have vile torture practices around, and for some reason still kidnap people for wallets. Of course, they still might not be killing each other off at the rate American blacks are.

Whites are spectacular at war, though.
