Lord of the Rings television series

How dope will the new Lord of the Rings television series be?

>The streaming service on Monday announced it is bringing J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy epic to television, with a multiple season commitment.

>The television series will take place before the 2001 feature film "The Fellowship of the Ring," which kicked off the trilogy directed by Peter Jackson.

What do you think it will focus on?

Didn't know they cast Will Smith as every character

So diverse

WE WUZ LORDZ N SHIT

>Multiple season commitment
you know they're gonna drag out so much shit with filler

Sup Forumstards need to be purged

Don't know. Christopher stepped down as head of The Tolkien Estate, so my guess is that it will be some stories from The Silmarillion that are taken out from the overreaching story arch and paired with a bunch of unrelated new stories created by a pile of literally nobodies. I suspect it will be garbage.

AYO FRODO HOL UP

>Sup Forumstards
Did the picture of the kangz upset you?

Stop being obsessed with black people

The plot of the pilot leaked. It's going to be about two hobbits named Julius and Keshawn who use the ring to turn invisible and steal shoes out of Foot Locker.

Christopher Tolkien was pushed out, and the last defender of JRR Tolkien's legacy is gone. It will be an utter cash grab from this point forward by the rest of the Tolkien Estate, and the end of an era.

Projecting.

It's not a LotR remake, they made this clear, it's going to be a fanfic-like series set before that à la Shadow of Mordor, so still shit but umharmful

Thankfully it's Amazon and not Netflix, so it might actually be decent.

>someone actually did my idea of having the ring wraiths be klansmen

nice one

2011 was a great year

smart phones need to be purged

This. If it were Netflix or Disney I would be worried, but amazon has yet to do anything that would turn me away, and the fact that they're trying to avoid remaking the trilogy is smart as they won't need to be compared to Jackson's

user speaks the truth.

Also this

I don't see why the fags from Sup Forums are hyping this to be some SJW propaganda either. Soulless cash grab? Probably. But we have yet to have even a hint that it's got an agenda of any sort

>there are people on this board that cannot see a black person without the words blacked, cucked, bull, bbc, WE, kangz, hol up, etc., mentally assaulting them

Amazon uses the same Hollywood people. It (most likely) won't be different.

Prolly cuz we're all winking at it user. OP posted a picture with a ton of black people. Waddya think is gonna happen?

You forgot the most important word "nigger"

When are we going to gas Hollywood?

People need to reserve their judgement until after we get more information. Amazon's involvement in Transparent, and the nature of Tolkien's works and how it's in his own words it is "fundamentally religious and Catholic", leave some nagging doubts.

This

stop being so insecure
