Finally we'll have King Aragorn portrayed as he should be, as a proud pansexual black trans bbw.

black elves.

black. elves.

What can men do against such reckless hate?

Lotr total war here we come!

WE WUZ MAIAR N SHEEEIIIT

HAPPENING

...

Time to buy every single one of the books he's released before they're re-edited by Disney to include homosexual relationships

Lord of da Chainz 3: Drive-by

There may be a successor director already appointed that is just as stringent as Tolkien's son. There's nothing to suggest it's open season. Another hype article with no substance.

Can't wait for a completely revisionist version of LOTR with Frodo being played by Elisabeth Moss

That really sucks.

Middle Earth is officially african

holy shit, white people btfo

Didn't Amazon just announce a new series? Wonder how that's going to go..

At least now we might get The Silmarillion on the big screen.

Has she put up any vids recently?

How much did they bribe him? He must have been blackmailed.

I get the feeling this was his last deal, cashing in and turning his back on the family legacy to go off and enjoy his riches

...

WELP
Brace yourselves, niggers are coming.

Certainly doesnt mean we are still safe though
Also the timing seems convienent

IT'S DISNEY WITHOUT DISNEY RELATIVES ALL OVER AGAIN

THIS IS THE END, ABANDON SHIP ABANDON SHIP

nobody that actually likes tolkien wants that

>black hobbits
I'm about to make columbine look like a fucking joke

Nah white boy it gonne bee

Lord of da Chaiz: Return of da KANGZ

LESLIE JONES AS ARAGORN OR RIOT

>as long as tolkiens son is in control of the estate, they won't mess with the canon

Fuck. LotR is the one fantasy property I really care about not seeing Judified.

can't wait to see Lady Galadriel get BLACKED on the big screen

Honestly not that excited what with all the crap they cram in their productions. It has very small chances of being good.

IDRIS ELBA AS FUCKING EVERYONE

well time for transexuals and niggers in the middle earth... why Christopher, what can man do against such reckless hate?

>"I'm about to make columbine look like a fucking joke"
kek, I love this place

fuck that, I don't want The Legendarum to get raped to death by modern television

WE WUZ NOLDOR

Merri and/or Peppin will be POC because Tolkien was never specific on what their skin colour was.

Frodo will probably be gay because it's never implied in the novels or Peter Jacksons films that he liked girls/had a crush on a girl.

Aragon could very possibly be black washed. Because fuck you, you will watch it anyways. Haha!

There will be tons of nigger background extras.

The Elves will be chinks.

There will be fierce women warriors in every category, strong woman elves, strong woman dwarves, strong man orcs, strong woman hobbits, strong woman ents.

Can't wait!

Why is Sup Forums so butthurt about this?

LAWD O DEM RANGZ: DA RANG GANG

LAWD O DEM RANGZ 2: TWO CRIBS

LAWD O DEM RANGZ 3: WE WUZ KANGZ AGAIN

Is there a problem?

Because it will be a bunch of forced diversity

>The Elves will be chinks.

I actually think they'll make all races be multi-racial. Rivendell will be full of black, Asian, and white Elves. Hobbits, Men, and Dwarves will also be all races.

>Shiit nigga I can't be a kang, them Gondor folks be pale as the midnight moon
>That is your internalized racism and self-hatred speaking, Aragorn. Seize your Numenorean legacy! You were kings! The throne is yours by right; men, womyn, vertically challenged and elves alike shall all bend the knee before you!
>Shiiiieeeet

They are still suffering 3rd degree burns from Star Wars.

And orcs will be reimagined as Trump supporting white nationalists, like the nu-Klingons.

It looks cheap. I guess that's why they do it in the first place. It's cost-effective.

Blacks are the original kangs and kweens so it makes sense

Christopher is still the literary executor. Is that a good thing or does it not matter?

tolkiensociety.org/2017/11/christopher-tolkien-resigns-as-tolkien-estate-director/

He is about to die, it does not matter.

because everything these people touch these days turns to shit just look at the hobbit
it's even worse now than it was back when it was in production

I hope you boys are ready for Return of the Kang

...

inb4 reimagined SJW bullshit that will destroy the entire Tolkien legacy!

...

nice

there's literally nobody
and I mean NOBODY
who could gather both the funding and talent required for such an undertaking without compromising artistic integrity

the only way it could even remotely work is as a high budget animated series

SHIIIIIIIIEEEEEET MUDAFUCKA ZAAAAAAP BITCH

why

...

WE

SO BRAVE, SO KANG....

Get ready for the Middle Earth cinematic universe

gandalf is my nigga

I'm assuming the why is for the animation

quite simply: it is an incredibly fantastic story, it starts with a creation myth and contains many events that are so great and outlandish they would require an utterly ludicrous CGI budget to do justice in live action

however a proper stylized animated work could display the same events with a much more limited budget as long as it has dedicated artists and good art direction.

Remember that this isn't LOTR, this is to LOTR as the old testament is to our world.
It features events like a massive spider shaped abomination sucking the very light out of the trees that lit the entire world, a half-elf fighting a dragon the size of the greatest mountain on the planet on a flying ship with a jewel that shines like the brightest star on it's bow and a king sailing the greatest armada in the history of the world to wage war on heaven only for his entire continent to be sunk to the sea and the world shaped from flat to round

Fuck no. Middle earf is white not fucking black or Asian or any other colour.

The timing of this and the Amazon adaption are too close. Chris was devestated to see Tolkein raped by the Hobbit trilogy he's cashing out

Of Middle-Earth? Are you an actual black person?

>I would have followed you muh homie
>muh nigga
>muh kaaaang

stingy old fuck, he should stand guard at the gates protecting his fathers stories from the SJW horde attempting to destroy it until his last breath.
this is a big pussy move

The only positive outcome would be thisEverything else is bound to be shit and fuck up Tolkien's universe way more than the Hobbit films. I was kinda optimistic about the new show until I found out that Chris Tolkien wasn't gonna be involved, now not so much.

>Blackgolas! What do your nigger eyes see?
>they're taking the little niggas to KFC!

No because my imagination is far better at envisioning all the absolutely awe-inspiring stuff that features in the Silmarillion. I have no desire to see some shitty green-screen Gondolin or awful CGI heavy footage of Fingolfin fighting Melkor.

he's old and alone, he knows nobody will continue the fight after he's gone
so he takes the only route available to him, he bends and tries to guide the future, tries to set standards that may hopefully be upheld.

It's a fools hope, but what else is left?

So this is how it ends

Too bad there's only shit animation nowadays. There isn't any talent that can make the detailed animation work that is required. It will end up as either Rick and Morty shit or the Clone wars shit, and I don't know which one is worse to be honest.

dark times ahead

and yet I would still trust an animated adaptation more than a live action one
at least it is possible for said animated to work to do the material justice.

WHITE GENOCIDE

You've just reminded me of this article I read 13 years ago (age 10)
fanlore.org/w/images/5/5c/When_Frodo_Met_Sam.jpg

>... almost all fan fiction, slash included, is written by bright young heterosexual women
The "films women don't understand" thing isn't a meme: women really just don't understand some things.

to be fair, men also draw porn of every remotely attractive female character regardless of their personalities
written smut is to females as rule 34 is to males

...

...

Checked. There goes the franchise, rest in peace, Tolkien.

drawing porn of attractive female characters is a different beast to "Two male characters share a close bond of friendship, the logical next step is to make them fuck."

This is literally white genocide

>artistic integrity on an unfinished work that was never meant to be published

That explains a lot of the stuff I heard about this week.

Also, they clearly did just give this nigga $250 million dollars if he just said fuck it do whatever.

WE

He didn't resign.

Amazon wanted what he controlled, so he was muscled out Disney-style.

That's so fucking obvious.

This is no doubt the reason why he was muscled out.

>Leave it! It is over. The world of men will fall, and all will come to darkness… and my city to ruin.
>I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you I will not let the White City fall… nor our people fail!

what did they mean by this?

Sad day.
I won't consume their non chris approved adaption.

pls no

Oh boy I can’t wait for a movie every year with each worse then the last. All of them basically being capeshit with forced diversity that hits all the checkmarks!

Show some god damn respect.

WUZ

I've fapped to many a picture of "two female characters share a close bond of friendship, the logical next step is to make them fuck"

Say it with me
A black Aragorn

Fuck it: Nigger Gollum.

A group of black pan sexual wheel chair bound deaf bipolar muslims travel to mount doom to destroy the one ring of power.
