How the -fuck- did they get away with that, and can you even imagine if they even tried to IMPLY they were going to do something like that today? How times have changed.

Return of the King is a significant drop in quality, but it's not that bad. Still a 6 or 7 out of 10.

Towers 9
Return 8

so shut the fuck up queer

Never watched the trilogy until like 2 or 3 years ago when the last hobbit movie came out. I think they are all perfect. You are just hating on it for the sake of hating on it.

I'm so fed up with this shit. I understand that sometimes things get changed in adaptations, but why the fuck do you need to change the skin color of a character? This is fucking stupid, because it changes the context of that character a lot. I'm tired of race changing for the sake of diversity.
>>
>>70108214
watch more fantasy then, FOTR is literally perfect, the others are very enjoyiable movies and stand multiple rewatchs but they're definitely not 10/10
>>
>>70108149
Lol they arent all perfect you dumb shit. Fotr is the best and far and beyond the best. They others aren't perfect you have zero applicable taste

Dear fantasy nerds, was Fantaghirò famous in your country? I loved this as a kid but I watched it a year or so ago and fuck me it was boring, there were some memorable scenes (and GOAT music) but it definitely couldn't stand the test of time. Fantaghirò 2 is still great though

The Hobbit movies featured entirely white protagonists. They shoehorned in a couple of nigger extras during the laketown scenes, but other than that it was literally all white. And the only reason for that was Jackson's success from the LotR trilogy made him feel like he had license to fuck with the source material a bit. In the LotR films they stayed true to the books, and in the books literally all of the free people of Middle Earth, the humanoids at least, are explicitly stated to be very, very white.

Why were there black people at lake coontown when the dwarves got there?

Not just LotR. All fantasy productions have a problem with letting any black person in who isn't a monster/rapists/incredibly minor character

Look at GoT, Harry Potter, Legend of the Seeker etc. It's epidemic

It seems that for the white people who pen these stories, it is a fantasy to not have to see black people.

No, they just aren't above setting fire to things they don't like.

THIS.

RotK would be 10 times better if instead of ghost army deus machina, they followed the books more closely and had only the reinforcements from South Gondor and the Rangers land with Aragorn and company at Pellennor harbor and fight their way to Minas Tirith, like it actually happened.

This was a battle of Man against Ork and it was Man's battle alone, though it would add a lot of more time to the battle scene than having the green wave rekt everything in a few seconds, maybe they shouldn't have spent so much time on mummakils and fancy legolas platforming instead.

I will never understand why /tv/ considers fotr the best of the trilogy. I hate the movies because I'm a bookfag, but even with that fellowship is the most boring of them all with the only redeeming factor being that it has sean bean but even then he dies like a bitch compared to the animated version

There were some niggers riding on elephants who served Sauron out of their own free will.

Because it's true. I don't want to genocide the niggers but life is just better when they are simply not there.
I moved to a remote village to work on a ultra high tech design team but put in the middle of nowhere, after living in London for 12 years. The days I don't go on the internet I forget about their existence.

They are forgettable. Dindus could pop out of the universe by magic and I don't give it three month before people wishfully forget about them and treat them as a urban myth.

>>70107015

I like how the easiest way to spot someone whos opinion is completely, utterly worthless is just by seeing if anyone hates on Lotr. Then you just know that their opinion is permanently void and that the world would be better without them typing any posts in the future.

Tell that to the BBC that insists on making Lancelot a Negro. Yes, not only did they insert their nig quotas, but they chose the man known for cucking the king.

That's my only real problem with the entire trilogy. The ghosts. Should have just cut them out. Aragorn leaves, audience wonders why, then he shows up in the same way but with men from the south and white tree banners. Men won the war, not ghosts, not elves, not dwarves, men.

Niggers can write their own fantasy stories if they want. It'd be fantasy anyway if niggers aren't slaves because that's what they were throughout history.

Agreed, the ghosts were pointless in the film.

Should have just left them out altogether.
>>
>>70107015
Incorrect, there was one dark skinned guy amongst the Gondor soldiers during the battle at Osgilliath. Still, it doesn't even piss me off.
Gondor is a large kingdom situated in the south, in the not so distant past it used to rule huge regions that have now gone to the Haradrim, including the southern city of Umbar where later the black Numenoreans came from (Black because of evil, not we wuzs, but I digress).
In such a kingdom it's perfectly feasible to have a few nignogs lurking around. Traders, mercenaries, perhaps the son of some prostitute. Makes sense. What does not make sense is fucking niggers and asians in Laketown, far in the north.
Eh
