you guys are pathetic

not sure for the second age, if it's set in Numenor she'd probably be the wife of Aldarion, Erendis. Her story is that she was happily married to Aldarion but Aldarion became obsessed with sailing despite his father's wishes and she grew colder and eventually drowned herself out of spite and sorrow. She's more likely to be an elf though.

This desu.

Why do we need this>?

>post soijack

you do realise its the soicucks that like that type of shit

Frodo

She'll date elf-nigger or some shit like this, screencap

even if we somehow miraculously dodge the diversity bullet, there is no way in hell we'll dodge the "strong womyn" bs that you know is coming.

freya looks nothing like that photo

celebrate now she's at least white skin because the next announcement will be black or chinese

its because that picture is from when the actress was like 12 she is 17 now

every fucking thread, every time it is the same autistic /pol/shitters who cant go 5 seconds without crying about the diversity of the casting, even when they cast white people. Pathetic incels

A thousand shekels says she'll be playing Sam and Frodo will be a nigger fucking screencap this.

I need big black cocks in my kinos bros
How else will I make bait threads on Yea Forums?

I'm not racist but niggers are disgusting and every show has them now

Aragorn or boycott. Aragorn can be played by a woman just as well, if not better.

Where are the diversity hires, Amazon?

but lotr had strong women, it just wasnt overdone.

Tolkien writes good characters in general.

Aragorn

this is set so many fucking years before his birth, or Isildur's birth

I love lotr but I won't be watching this no matter how good it is

she already looks like shes in her early 20's

But there are no black or Chinese people in Middle Earth. There literally is no China and no Africa. Where would they come from?

Jackson was forced to include that shot of Somalis in Laketown to placate the media outrage after the casting director told a Pakistani woman she couldn't play a hobbit because hobbits are white, but that was done under duress. Aside from that there are no blacks or asians in any media except Easterlings who are basically Arabs/Muslim analogs.

same thing happened to NTF after she turned 18

The name of this article sounds like a boomer having a stroke

Cute Hobbit girl, hopefully.

i really wished you choked on the black cock you like sucking so much

no no no NO. How fucking DARE they cast a white PIG in a story based on English mythos? Don't they fucking REALIZE that British people are BLACK?!

Either Erendis, one of the other Numenor ruiling queens, or some donutsteel elf-woman. She looks to plain to play Galadriel.

Same excuse as the little mermaid. Mermaids don't exist so they can be black. elves don't exist so they can be black/chinese/latino, dwarves are fantasy hobbits are fantasy. this is the explanation they give. youre fooling yourself if you believe they won't cast minorities in this.

Is it specifically stated in the books that any of the characters are white tho?

Attached: 1550584952169.png (627x563, 651K)

the books were written by a polish man and based mostly on slavic mythology

Attached: marie.webm (540x960, 1.94M)

No he wrote in his letters that every character is to be played by Idris Elba

Tolkien races don't exist but they are analogs of existing races/cultures just as the setting is an analog of pre-industrial revolution Europe. Elves are Nordic. Dwarves are Scottish. Rohirrim are Celtic. Etc.

It makes no more sense to have a black dwarf or elf than to have white blonde people as citizens of Wakanda. Dwarves for example are all one genetically distinct race, where would an Afro-dwarf even come from? There is no Africa and all dwarves come from Middle Earth. Where would a Chinese Elf come from? It makes no sense narritively, logistically or rationally.

I love Bonbi

who the fuck is that
what army?

Could there be Moorish humans from the far eat or south? Wherever the blue wizards fucked off to?
Is that on canon?

Don Cheadle

he's Harad who was abandoned to a Gondor family and joined the Gondor military

SHES WHITE! REEEEEEEEE

it's second age retards

They're clearly blue user.

Attached: 1548462551157.gif (220x346, 226K)

She'll play young Gandalf.

They will keep elves white but there will be humans of all colors. Dwarves will probably stay white too

Her sidekick/romantic interest will be a black or nonwhite male now.

>Haradrdim are clearly Arabs in the books and movies
>lol here's a nigger
amazing

an orc so nobody knows shes white

He husband will be a black scientist/master sorcerer who teaches all the white men, elves, and dwarves everything they know in spite of extreme racism thrown at him.

she got them suckin lips tho

>basing an entire show on the 5 pages of appendix in LOTR about the second age
Guys the show has no hope of being good.

Try to tell us we're wrong.

But if you have to SAY a character is strong, they're not.

I want her get BLACKED by hobbit

Still doesnt answer my question tho :^)

Tolkien probably never even saw a nigger in his life other than French colonial troops riddled with bullet holes

Attached: smileofthecentury.gif (406x351, 3.65M)

Is anyone on the internets mad about this legendary adaptation acted by whites exclusevely now that the jews has let the minors step up with the progressive politics?

Is LOTR considered as belonging to any particular literary movement, e.g. Romanticism?

>he doesn't like brown elves

I like brown elves, I don't like niggers.

Young Arwen or a generic elve maybe

Pretty cute.

Don't fuck this up Bezos.

As long as they don't sjw/diversity this like Netflix just did to the witcher I will watch the fuck out of it and buy a prime membership for it and not even pirate it, and I literally pirate everything.

Cautiously optimistic, until the next casting announcement is Boyega as a young Aragorn of course.

Ok, lets make predictions about the diversity cuotas
Gender flip: Legolas
Race flip: Aragorn
Mandatory new character: A smart and quirky female hobbit

It's second age, not third age.
probably gonna be a mostly OC donutsteel cast

hope you like frodo and samantha's adventure to mordor mang

This is NOT okay...

Oh shit. Then basically The Witcher again.

YIKES

They didn't buy the rights to any existing characters, just the setting. All characters are original.

Will Gandalf be black?

fo shizzle ma nizzle

>but sources say she would be playing a character named Tyra.

so the amazon show will be completely made up with vague ties to tolkien's work?

Its set in Middle Earth with Middle Earth races and places but the characters in the story and the story are all original.

>it's a fanfiction show
yikes

Well the estate was only willing to sell the rights to the setting.

For a quarter of a billion dollars.

the one that fucks the black guy, screencap this post.

Attached: Fantasymovies.png (1423x1904, 1.66M)

Conan is at least mid tier. Its good tier imo

Gandalf didn’t appear in the second age.

Of course the females are white. The males are the ones casted as black.

If they are I just won't watch it.

hopefully frodo

Most likely a dagger ear

It's pathetic to give a fuck about Jewish media I will agree lol but it probably will happen.

A FUCKING WHITE?! awesome

Me neither. There's no way we are ever going to get any decent Tolkien adaptations again.

Less than 2 months before she hits the wall... poor girl

I think you're right.

>literally fanfic

and amazon paid a quarter of a billion dollars (+ production costs) for this? lol

why is Yea Forums so obsessed with black people

Why are people so obsessed with gaining diversity points by making established white characters black instead of coming up with original black characters of their own?

Now that I think of it, do Amazon originals even suffer from excessive diversity like Netflix originals?

Have sex

On the other foot, would a butchered adaptation of the book be much better?

There are Arab looking and possibly black people in Harad and possibly Khand you dumbass

*nglo?

>Fantasy book written about classic European myths such as elves, dwarfs, humans, orcs, and trolls
>Written by white guy living in the UK who died in 1973
>"But bro, he never explicitly stated that every character has white skin, so a bunch are probably black lmao"
It's just sad that authors are gonna have to start saying, outright, what skin color a character has. They can't even afford to be slightly vague like calling someone "pale" or "dark", cause that still leaves wiggle room for people who want to raceswap everything. Prepare for an age where authors come out and say
>"____ had curly hair; but not curly as in kinky, but curly in the way that a white guy's hair would be curly. Also ____ is of course an elf, but he has white European features, including but not limited to his skin color, nose, lips, and eyes, with his ears being pointed since he is still an elf. In fact, one could even say that if ____ were ever brought to a live-action adaptation then he should be portrayed by an actor of European descent. And no, that doesn't mean a second-generation black guy from Europe, it means someone who is white, and I think you know what I mean, stop trying to convince yourself that this character is actually a black guy with elf ears on. Also, fuck it, while we're at it, ____ is NOT a tranny, gay, or secretly a woman who later on takes off his baggy elf robes to reveal tits that she's been hiding all along."

Black Gandalf is actually really fucking kino looking.

You have a choice of blaming hollywood hacks for ruining everything or you can blame KHVs on an anonymous forum. Of course, like clockwork, you complain about the people complaining. How reddit of you :)

Obviously I didn't mean that humans are myths, I just mixed that in.

>Wizards in god tier
Whoever made this list is alright. I'm going to ignore how wrong every other tier is just because of that.

>Excalibur
Based af
This, the soundtrack is the real hero

Is it a movie from '77?

Written 1930s England. Everyone is white in LOTR.

Yes, in many ways. There are obvious inspirations for some ethnicities (eg. Rohirrim are anglo-saxon, Dalemen are Scandinavian), parallels for some (eg. Gondorians could be considered insular-Celtic british people, Dunlendings could be considered Welsh), there are physical indicators (eye and hair colours exclusive to white ethnicities), and there are usually explicit references to skin colour.

Middle Earth is very 'racialist' in a way. It deals with nations, tribes, families, etc and a lot of attention is paid to these things, almost always through language and appearance.

There are definitely black people from Far Harad. They're described as 'troll-like" in comparison to the whiter Northerners and Gondorians. This indicates they are a rarity even in Gondor

>Dwarves are Scottish
Dwarves are Jewish, probably Ashkenazi, if any human ethnicity. There are in universe analogues and Tolkien himself said it outright.

However, there were 7 dwarf fathers that founded the different lineages of dwarves. The most diverse they could go would be to make each of the dwarf houses a corresponding ethnicity, but they would be showing only 3 dwarf houses/ethnicities as the other 4 houses aren't in the West during the Third Age I think that's when the show is set).

>Rohirrim are Celtic

Anyway.
