@GlassEyeArt @Sickofmedia44 @fandompulse It'll be a recently released original movie whether you take a look at it or not. Same with Hail Mary

George Lucas on the state of film and TV today:
"Nobody knows what to do. The stories they're telling are just old movies. Let's do a sequel. Let's do another version of this movie. And it's not just in movies, but in almost everything, there's no original thinking. It's like I saw something, let's do something like that."
Is he on to something here?

@Sickofmedia44 @fandompulse tell me the last time an original movie was in the cinema?
English

@INFJ_2024 @DiscussingFilm Some will. But that won't invalidate their criticism of the casting choice
English

@DiscussingFilm You know all of the people complaining about "race swapping" and this version of Harry Potter being "woke" are gonna watch the hell out of this when it comes out.

@atalanta44 @Lfromthenorth You really need to take a critical look at what trans rights activists get up to.
Is no debate still a thing?
English

Dear trans people;
You know that creating your own spaces and organizations was an option from the start?
You didn't HAVE TO force yourselves into every women's space like invaders. You chose to do that, instead of putting your energy in lobbying for your own.
You could have ensured that no conflicts in rights emerged, but you chose not to.
The backlash against you is completely your own doing.

@Sickofmedia44 @fandompulse Oh, did we forget the "and make it good" part? Sorry
English

@fandompulse Everytime they make something original nobody goes to see it. Its gets no engagement on social media. Only the legacy projects do. Maybe you guys are part of the problem.

@KuuFFi @AntiWokeMemes Ok. There are some good looking men that transforms into beautiful looking woman. Thats a form of flattery. The best show out there is Ru Paul's drag race to show their talents. Check it out and don't flip if it starts to rise 😉

@Iamme428 @AntiWokeMemes We all are. Doesn't mean we can deny reality

@AntiWokeMemes That is a human trying to be happy in their own skin.

@FylerWrites @CrunchAlias 'Trans girls' are a cohort entirely comprised of boys, you utter muppet. Only boys can be 'trans girls' - by the very virtue of actually being a girl, no girl can be.
A boy with any gender identity, or with none, is still a boy.

@Grownded @CultureCrave mcgonagall is the only one who looks the part

@jusdewitt1 @PlatoonPod Stephen Colbert is writing a LOTR sequel film called The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past, co-written with his son, who has 0 writing credits other than one show with Colbert. It's about Sam's daughter.

One of the reasons AI is going to sweep through the information economy is that a large number of people employed in those sectors - especially in journalism - add no human value.
The reasons given in this article are nominally in reverse order but are in reality interchangeable:
8) The movies aren't one-to-one adaptations of a 1200 page trilogy that takes about 60 hours to read.
7) Return of the King used more CGI than Fellowship and looks dated.
6) Not Enough Women.
5) Cultural stereotypes (Tolkien had a "borderline-colonial gaze" that wasn't corrected until Rings of Power).
4) Streaming services usually play the theatrical cuts. Ie the extended versions are "difficult to watch" — practically.
3) It suffers from "cultural saturation", even though...
2) Game of Thrones "stole its crown" because LotR has "too much moral clarity [...] To feel authentic and relatable
1) Some incomprehensible point about rebooting it being both a good and likely thing and a bad and unlikely thing at the same time.
I'm probably one of 5 people who actually read it, and I have learned absolutely nothing. There is no analysis, there is no through-line. It is a series of random and vague assertions.
It is unironically worse than a think-piece about how Tolkien was some sort of hetero-patriarchal smurfophobic racist, because at least those attempt something.
If you prompted ChatGPT to write an article for this headline, it would have done a much better job.
Since the entire purpose of the article is in the clickbait headline, and since the (presumably) human author did not think it necessary to include anything worth reading, there is no point maintaining the human in this job.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is an iconic film series, but it also has many elements that are difficult to watch in modern day. cbr.com/8-reasons-toug…

@stubylegsjf @LayOnbedL @DiscussingFilm so you’re doing it for fun and not because you believe what you’re doing benefits anyone in any way? like i said just leave trans people alone and we’re all good
English

@stubylegsjf @LayOnbedL @DiscussingFilm trans women are real women, your opinion is irrelevant, they will continue to be women regardless of what you or any other bigot thinks
English

@LayOnbedL @DiscussingFilm Why separate them? They're both amazing
English

@INFJ_2024 @DiscussingFilm My complaint is actually the opposite... it doesn't look different ENOUGH from the movies. Those movies are gorgeous and still hold up... this trailer doesn't give me any reason to watch this when I've already seen all the movies.
English

@PlatoonPod Get ready for a lot more articles putting down Lord of the Rings in an attempt to lower the bar for Colbert's sequel slop.
English

@sleepy_devo I don't need to identify as being straight. I am just being heterosexual.
So what's the prefixes for being gay or not gay then? Oh that's right your silly argument has just collapsed.
I don't need a prefix to denote I am not a transvestite because I am normal.
English

yes graham. i am not a triggered fucking snowflake who loses their fucking mind over the prefix "cis".
