We have lost the greatest mind in the dynamic world of #Tolkien Scholarship. Like his Father he was an intellectual giant who poured his entire life into those monumental works. Never was the adage more true: He was a GENTLEMAN and a SCHOLAR. A memory. #RIPChristopherTolkien /1

Anduril Founder @PalmerLuckey: “A lot of people say: ‘I can’t believe Palmer named his company after something from the LOTR… Tolkien hated war.’” “Tolkien was not someone who was pro-war by any means… but he did believe in good and evil. He did believe in wars that needed to be fought.” “One of the interesting themes of [LOTR] is how the people who live far away from Mordor, they don’t believe that these monsters exist.” “And I think that describes a lot of Americans. You’ll talk to people that say: ‘I think that nobody’s truly evil, that nobody deserves to die.’” “There are a lot of people on the frontlines of conflicts who don’t have the luxury of that… Someone who’s looked evil in the eye can’t pretend it doesn’t exist.” Anduril, Flame of the West 🔥⚔️

BREAKING 🚨: Aragorn to Be Recast for “The Hunt for Gollum” as Auditions Begin in London and New Zealand 🎥 During The One Ring Net (@theoneringnet) TORN Tuesday chat on January 6, it was revealed that Aragorn is being recast for “The Hunt for Gollum,” with auditions currently underway. “The conversations I had over the weekend were with real people—not just anonymous names on the internet… Based on those conversations, auditions for Aragorn are taking place this week in London. Aragorn is being recast, with auditions happening both in London and New Zealand.” The interview also noted that casting is not limited to established names. “…What we’re hearing in London is that they’re also looking for unknown actors.” According to people close to the casting process, fan-favorite picks may not align with the creative direction. “I’ve been told by people close to casting that Ben Barnes and Sebastian Stan are considered too old for the vision of Aragorn. The film reportedly takes place in the 20 years prior to ‘The Fellowship of the Ring,’ acting as a bridge between ‘The Hobbit’ and ‘The Lord of the Rings.’” With auditions reportedly open to newcomers and the story set in the years before “The Fellowship of the Ring,” this recasting marks a significant moment for the next Middle-earth film. Who do you think should step into the role of Aragorn? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. 🤓 #lordoftherings #thehuntforgollum

On 2 September 1973 J.R.R. Tolkien died aged 81. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is the best-selling book of the 20th Century, and is joined by seminal works The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. He may have died 52 years ago but his influence and legacy lives on in us all. Namárië.

@timboltonuk @NazgulJamesKidd @NourTrabel Oh it’s okay, Tim, and thanks. Just a bunch of total randos on twitter saying that I’m a sexist, misogynist, old, “lore bro” who uses coded language to — WHAT NOW? “have a good husband come in and “fix” Galadriel by making her into some kinda tradwife or something?” Absurd lies!

@moonlarking I didn’t know or assume the person’s gender when I wrote that open-field shady comment that I would’ve thrown at *anyone* regardless. I’ve uplifted women my whole life! This is all absurd because I’m defending myself from false misogynistic aspersions cast directly at me! Enough!

@Quickbeam2000 Your identity and politics don’t exempt you, a man, from misogyny. You don’t get to magically escape all possible oppressive capabilities just because you’re gay and consider yourself progressive. That was proven when you called a woman “kitten”

Self-described “feminist progressive” man resorts to misogyny the moment woman disagrees with him, more at 9
Clifford Broadway@Quickbeam2000

@NourTrabel Gee thanks for calling me an idiot for pointing out the obvious. Is there something you’d like to address with me personally? I’m right here. Unafraid to address this issue. Pile it on, kitten.

@vitaaeris @moonlarking Yesterday this was posted about me, a deeply hurtful falsehood: •"Fix the show" are code words for "get that wh*re away from the villain and reteach her to be a good faithful woman who obeys her husband" I’ve NEVER even thought such a thing! And then there were the insults…

@moonlarking Interpret how I throw shade AS YOU WISH. I was accused yesterday of wanting a husband character to “fix” a wife character just to “keep her in line” — the most BONKERS misogynistic bullshit I’ve ever had laid at my feet. I could never and would never hold that notion. Fuck that.

@Quickbeam2000 Misogynistic insults aren’t shady, catty, or petty, and calling them such is just a pathetic attempt to deflect from the *actual* criticism I’m leveling at you

@r_0md @NourTrabel Although I enjoy the show a lot; these are key points for me: There are big emotional beats the writers don’t properly earn (like the death of Elvish archer Rían) There are huge setups with no follow up (the Doors of Durin) Making out with your future Mother-in-law is whack. /2

@Quickbeam2000 @NourTrabel Let me ask you something what exactly celeborn supposed to fix in the show? and what are the "specific narrative deficits" you are referring to? and i hope you give a solid answer that doesn't include implicit misogyny.

@r_0md @NourTrabel Glad to answer! A few key things can be improved in the show but nobody needs to “fix” Galadriel though - I have NEVER once thought such things as I was accused of yesterday. But Celeborn deserves his time onscreen. I refer you to @BenSimulator_1’s excellent take on Celeborn: /1

@vitaaeris If someone attacks, impugns, or disrespects my person with insane lies, as they certainly did here, I will read them for filth, regardless of gender. I’m not afraid to speak up for myself and there’s nothing between anyone’s legs that’s gonna make me defend myself less vigorously

@moonlarking Don’t like the shade, gurrrl? 💅 Then don’t get in my sunlight. You and your friends here came for me — pugnacious strangers spitting insane lies about me — so yeah I WILL DRAG YOU ALL without hesitation and I’ll be as shady and catty as I damn well please. Take a seat.

@countesslillian I’m not a lore bro but I do believe the narrative inconsistencies of this gorgeously produced show could be markedly improved by finding a mite better synergy with the original text. Is that a crime to say so? Having written for stage & TV myself professionally do I know nothing?

@fiery_undomiel You’re putting a very heavy foot on the gas of bullshit. I never said that in my many years of analysis and commentary on the show. I’ve NEVER once had these notions — yet you confidently put that horrid agenda in my mouth, never intended by me. Why do you cast these aspersions?!
