Who will play Tolkien in the invitable biopic?
And why will everyone hate it?

Cause it looks like kitschy crap. It'll probably be like that Theory of Everything film from 2014. Competently made historical drama love story but overwrought and uninspired. It's not going to be one of the all time great biopics. Also, Nolt isn't a great fit for Tolkien either. It's certainly no 'Fuck, he really feels like the man!' as we got with Kingsley playing Gandhi.

Jews, at least on the German side, served in the armed force to an greater extent than the general population. Many really were quite desperate to prove themselves loyal Germans.

ummm, where are the black people and women? this is a bit problematic...

are you dumb? it's nicholas hoult

This bullshit again.

Its Anglo Saxon bullshit jerking themselves off before their people completely die. Tolkien was a hack who copied most of his work and took the soul out of it. That's why its so easy for his story to be manipulated into whatever is needed to fit the memo.

Ah, I remember reading this a few years ago. The guy who bitched as Spielberg for portraying the Germans with shaved heads instead of hair and side parts. I'm not in the mood of reading that forum at least until we clear this up: he's an SS vet angry over a WWII pic... I'm talking about WWI... cause it's Tolkien for God's sake and Jews were still permitted to openly serve in the German army back then. Does your link have something relevant to that or are you such a raging brainlet you thought dragging WWII into this constitutes as relevant and refutation?

Cringe-inducing Yea Forums contrarian.

Why hasn't Christopher Tolkien come out saying how shit this will be and how he hates it already? He's usually the first guy to shit over hollywood adaptions of anything to do with his father. He's such a grump.

>tolkien doesnt like allegory as he mentioned many times over the course of his life
>lotr wasnt inspired by the wars as he said many times over the course of his life
>most of his inspiration came from old myths, legends and fairy tales that he used and changed to fit a story he wanted to tell

>the movie trailer instantly shows a balrog in an explosion during tolkiens service in the war

I'm sure this will be an incredibly accurate representation of Tolkien's life.

He's probably honouring his father in a sense considering Tolkien also would have been raging and a grump over the adaptions. I recall his own words expressing moody sentiment over an adaption attempt when he was still alive changing a relatively minor thing. I can't picture him being that happy over the films. He'd probably be pissy over the lands surrounding Minas Tirith being dry and barren rather than lush and green, let alone big plot changes.

Why didn't Elrond push Isildur into the lava?

He points out how the Jews fighting in "disproportoinate numbers" in the Great War was an oft parroted myth in interbellum Germany.

>recasting REAL from tolkien's life as black or female randomly
what the fuck is this shit

its as bad as Numbers where the actual person is still alive going, "No one was ever racist to me at NASA, the racism in my life was rare and from elements outside of work" but the movie about her life casts this half-black/half-white looking woman as a pure black woman with other FULL BLACK women who NEVER FUCKING EXISTED or REPLACED ACTUAL PEOPLE WHO WERE NOT BLACK IN REAL LIFE and had an asshole at NASA who was the most racist fuck in all history be the antagonist of her SUPER ACCURATE story.

no it will but he'll struggle with homosexuality

About as grumpy as his Father. Most of his complaints seem fairly in line with problems his Dad would have had with the shit people try to pull.

Hasn't Beast from the new Xmen movies been cast as Tolkien?

I never asked for this.

I initially thought you meant Frasier and got my hopes up.

That's why its called agitprop instead of art. The farther they take it from the truth, the quicker it'll fall into the trash pile of meaningless creation.

Saruman never asked for Gandalf betrayal either
