I think Galadriel being an action hero pisses me off more than anything here. The Hobbits looking like hobos sort of works if they're in their migratory period which they very well could be in the 2nd age,and lol black people, but thinking that Galadriel being the wisest non servant of God, and almost sole survivor of the first age Noldor in the entire setting, isn't an interesting or strong enough character just sets me right off. It's not enough that she helped her people over the grinding ice, and is a renowned leader of power and wisdom, she has to kick ass just like the boys.
She looks fine but shouldn't Galadriel always have a sort of angelic/divine look to her, even if she's dirty? This just looks like a generic RPG protagonist.
>Tolkein always describes her as otherworldly
He did not. He described her simply as the fairest of the elven women left in Middle Earth, and the greatest. Arwen is also described as "the fairest".
She did not look like some supernatural being.
She's unironically one of the 10 most powerful beings in Middle Earth that aren't divinities.
She's also wearing one of the 3 untainted Elven Rings of Power at certain points.
She's basically a Balrog in the form of an attractive woman.
LotR has aesthetics based on early medieval Europe (and old time English countryside in case of Shire) so it has to be dirty because Europe was white and Christian then, same shit as with medieval filter
>no black people in the original trilogy >now they're everywhere

>only contain whites?
This is just factually incorrect, Harad is basically Africa. Arabs, blacks and all and is part of the same continent of middle earth, the movies just never visit there.
None of the characters shown in any of the images are dressed like characters from Harad. Haradrim are all portrayed as dressing like people from the middle east.

I get that but why? Black people are native to equatorial regions and become whiter the further away you go. So, there may be somewhat swarthier people in the southern extremes (aka North Africa or the middle east) but you aren't going to go full africoid until you approach the tropics where humans are subjected to more UV radiation bombardment thanks to basically having no seasonal variation.
I just don't understand this. If you really want to shoe horn blacks in, why not just add some foreigner side chars from far harad that traveled up north for whatever reason and in the process got roped into the main plot??? Surely that's better and more plausible than retconing hobbits, dwarves, and elves as being a multi-racial species. I just really don't understand the thought process here.
It does. Say there's the dwarf race. But in it there's 2 distinct types. Some moved north to the mountains, the others south. Over a 1000 years the ones in the heat shed their wide stature and became slimmer, they excavate the dunes and build under sand cities.
The ones to the north are traditional Hardy dwarfs. Live in mountains, are wide and deal with the cold well. They mine.
then go write your own fantasy with desert dwelling moron dwarfs if you want them so bad instead of appropriating and vandalizing the established work of other people
Having regional elves with their own unique culture and society is fine and enhances the world building. But having multiple variants of elves living in one region like modern day NYC breaks the aesthetic and comes off like leftist indoctrination.
First off, in no way is that whining. My major problem is it's clearly just anti-white. It's not applied equally. Asgard has to have blacks, but Wakanda doesn't have to have whites, and the mystical city Shang Chi went to only has Asians. Why aren't their cities multi-cultural? It's horseshit.

In the MCU, each of the nine realms is a separate populated planet (or starbase in teh case of the Dwarves), this was clearly shown at the beginning of the first Thor movie.
In the MCU, the Vikings and the Asgardians cribbed from each other's culture in ye ancient times and the Asgardians became worshipped (like the Eternals and other aliens).

In the comics they were never aliens, that was a change for MCU. Even in the MCU they're the basis for Norse mythology, it makes zero sense for there to be blacks in Norse mythology.
And that justification should apply to Wakanda and the city in Shang-Chi. Wakanda's technological advancement comes from Vibranium, an alien metal. Why didn't white aliums come with it? Hm? HMMMMM? Shang Chi's city has magic, why aren't there any magical white, black or hispanic people? Huh?
If it makes sense for Asgard, then you can't justify it not being present in the other places.

Swarthy isn't black-skinned, no one in northern Europe had even seen a sub-saharan black person at that point. Swarthy to them was literally anything less pale, fair haired and blue eyed than themselves.
Actually you can see whites in Wakanda (in Endgame, that was the one I saw). It felt weird to me, considering it was an isolated territory. I'd say it ruined the immersion but it was a shit movie anyway.
>I don't get this pic.
Black women are 6% of the US population, whites are 60%. So yes dumbass, there are literally ten times as many white people. Pushing them in media the way they have is literally catering to a superminority.

Blacks aren't the issue. It's not blacks making decisions. They are just puppets. The issue is the white people and the ~~*white*~~ people behind them.
They can't just make something tasteful.
It has to be blatantly political.
Hobbits are not black
Haradrim probably.
Gondor potentially.
Elvish cultures no.
Why can't they just meet their dumb quotas by having black men. Have to be fucking smug about it.

I fucking hate everything about this cover. Congratulations OP.
since when were hobbits literal plant-covered woodland creatures? I know they live in holes in hills but did they really need to add leaves into their hair and make them perpetually filthy? Also what the FUCK is up with that hairstyle on the right
this is probably before the hobbits lived in the Shire to be fair, they were called Stoors, the Harfoots being a principal family and the ancestors of the Tooks, and they lived in the Anduin vale which being between Mirkwood and Lorien is mostly wooded.
Then why use his name? You just have a hateboner for the country that gave you the website you're posting on, because your country is shit. Penis-envy, pure and simple.
I'm in the lunchroom at work and I literally just laughed out loud at the moron which startled everyone in the room because i'm a quiet shut-in at work but I just couldn't help it. The visual of a moron hobbit is just so ridiculous that I just can't help but laugh my ass off. It's impossible to take this shit seriously on any level lol.

what the fuck is this? why can't they dress like normal people? is this supposed to be their way of saying they're in tune with nature or some shit? Why do they have to look like they enjoy living in dogshit? Why can't they have decent clothes?
>Why do they have to look like they enjoy living in dogshit? Why can't they have decent clothes?
Bilbo was a very upper class hobbit even before his adventure made him filthy fucking rich. Most of the Hobbits are peasant farmers, with a few exceptionally wealthy lineages. Samwise is some poor schmuck who is practically Frodo's servant.
Nothing is stopping anyone from writing black fantasy, or fantasy that heavily represents blacks, but nobody cares and you won't read it / watch it so you're left with breaking white people's toys to punish white poeple for not making it for them. You know that as long as white people have options, you can't force them to worship blacks.
Sure they can, once they have a culture worth putting in there. Everyone else has a cool culture worth fitting in there somewhere, why don't they? Even the middle east has a shitload of cool weapons, mythology, weapons and clothes. They contribute shit like curved swords, flying carpets and djinns.
The Vikings have badass mythology, technology and combat tactics on par with medieval Europe at the time, built boats capable of sailing across the ocean and built wooden houses. They looked badass and did badass shit. Berserkers are an actual tactic they employed.
Africans weren't capable of sailing to the US, or employing tactics like the use of wooden shields to ensnare an enemy's weapon.
Don't forget their 'Boar snout' formation, gods bless whatever mad bastard was at the point of that, he's deffo being plucked up by the Valkyries first.
orcs weren't supposed to be blacks though
Tolkien said that they look like 'least lovely Mongol types' would look to medieval European and they speak like norfs

The gaps in the wrists. In a sword fight hands/wrists are primary targets along with the head, since they are foward when you attack and so very exposed to your enemy. If you cut a wrist/forearm/hand the fight is over, you can't fight WITHOUT YOUR FUCKING HANDS. I know it's a show but armor that bitch up or put her on a bikini armor already. Also good luck with all that hair.
have a nice day. In the cover picture, she has gauntlets that do not protect her wrists. The anon posted a picture of real gauntlets which actually protect the wrists.
How can someone not understand what is the point of a gauntlet to begin with? It never occurred to them that, historically, it would've indeed easier to just skip except the wrist articulation if there wasn't a good reason to keep it in the first place.
American culture is more disgusting than ever but consoom gays will still consoom no matter what. Don't be misguided, you all should shame the mindless consumers, not those who create such garbage. Bully the viewers of these shows. Shame them relentlessly. Make them feel embarrassed for their habits. You're powerless against big corporations, but you're not powerless against common people.

They have as much to do with the actual ancient past as Stargate Atlanteans or RE Howard's coastal galleons in the year 20,000 BC.
If this is the ''ancient past'', it could mean that Hobbits and Men and Dwarves and Elves, etc. collectively committed genocide on their own black populace, seeing as the latter timeline has none of them.

>Harad is basically Africa.
Its obviously the middle east you fucking retard.
>“Rhun is the Elvish word for ‘east.’ Asia, China, Japan, and all the things which people in the west regard as far away. And south of Harad is Africa, the hot countries" -JRR Tolkien
Hmm, should I believe you or Tolkien?
Look at the fucking map you fucking mongoloid. Its on this thread fucking look at it.
Look at where Rhun is you fucking moron retard.
Then look at where Harad is you fucking chud gay.
Tolkien literally states that central Africa is located to the south of Harad not within it himself in your quote
I though Africa part is called 'Far Harad' in contrast to Middle Eastern/North African Near Harad
>Its obviously the middle east you fucking retard.
The middle east has rainforests and savannah?
Yes.
>people look middle Eastern
>dress Chinese
>live in rain forests
Sounds like... a fantasy
but dark people are from close to the equator. Is middle earth near the equator? That looks like just part of one continent (like Europe).
About half that map is lands where none white people live
I get that but why? Black people are native to equatorial regions and become whiter the further away you go. So, there may be somewhat swarthier people in the southern extremes (aka North Africa or the middle east) but you aren't going to go full africoid until you approach the tropics where humans are subjected to more UV radiation bombardment thanks to basically having no seasonal variation.
>t. science truster
Arda was flat around that time period so people with moron skin existing barely makes sense anyway
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING DING
kek
Whats the context of this?
>Le funny joke about le chuds seething
I just don't understand this. If you really want to shoe horn blacks in, why not just add some foreigner side chars from far harad that traveled up north for whatever reason and in the process got roped into the main plot??? Surely that's better and more plausible than retconing hobbits, dwarves, and elves as being a multi-racial species. I just really don't understand the thought process here.
We are one race the human race.
We have multiple "races"
Therefore fantasy races should too.
It doesn't make any sense.
Something like a Drow vs an elf makes sense.
Maybe some dwarfs live in mountains and are wide and others live in the desert and a slim. That makes sense.
Different colours? Why not make that a human thing.
>and others live in the desert and a slim. That makes sense.
no it doesn't
It does. Say there's the dwarf race. But in it there's 2 distinct types. Some moved north to the mountains, the others south. Over a 1000 years the ones in the heat shed their wide stature and became slimmer, they excavate the dunes and build under sand cities.
The ones to the north are traditional Hardy dwarfs. Live in mountains, are wide and deal with the cold well. They mine.
See
then go write your own fantasy with desert dwelling moron dwarfs if you want them so bad instead of appropriating and vandalizing the established work of other people
Fucking retard I'm just saying in general have Asian and black dwarves is retarded.
Having regional elves with their own unique culture and society is fine and enhances the world building. But having multiple variants of elves living in one region like modern day NYC breaks the aesthetic and comes off like leftist indoctrination.
This.
morons can’t be elves. Sorry. You’re orcs.
Holy fuck,just put the fork down,lady you got sausage fingers
>No beard on the dwarf woman
That's what you should actually be upset about.

Oh now there just trolling

She cute.
I’m sick of black people

>In 100% of the media.
>Erasing all European history and settings.
Just one question: have you watched The Northman in cinema? If the answer is 'no', then you have no right to whine
First off, in no way is that whining. My major problem is it's clearly just anti-white. It's not applied equally. Asgard has to have blacks, but Wakanda doesn't have to have whites, and the mystical city Shang Chi went to only has Asians. Why aren't their cities multi-cultural? It's horseshit.
Second off, yes I went to The Northman.
>Wakanda doesn't have to have whites
That's not really true, Bucky is white after all
He's not a native Wakandan, he's a visitor and he was no longer there as of Falcon & Winter Soldier. If there are native black Asgardians there should be native white Wakandans. Unless there's something wrong with diversity, or something?
The Asgardians are aliums who rule a collection of planets across the galaxy, they are not Swedes in the MCU.
>rule a collection of planets
Are you retarded or just a hack lying weasel? Asgardians come from asgard
In the MCU, each of the nine realms is a separate populated planet (or starbase in teh case of the Dwarves), this was clearly shown at the beginning of the first Thor movie.
In the MCU, the Vikings and the Asgardians cribbed from each other's culture in ye ancient times and the Asgardians became worshipped (like the Eternals and other aliens).
None of the Asgardians are human at all.
But they're all white.
>But they're all white.
They who? They mythological figures of our real-life Earth Vikings? Yeah probably, even the Dark Elves were "dark" because of their living conditions underground.
In this comic universe full of 1 mile ayyy robots and pan-dimensional demon lords? Apparently not. The Thor comics have played fast and loose with Norse mythology since the first issues too.
>They who?
Gee, who were we discussing dipshit? The Marvel version of the Asgardians are ALL white. Every single one of them. White.
It was a different time back then, it was ok (but daring) to show Black Africans, but Black Americans were basically manservant/sidekick characters only.
The MCU is also VERY loosely based on the olde Marvel comics as well, in many many ways.
>It was a different time back then
That image is from like five years ago you disingenuous fuck.
Youre arguing with a dimb moron discord chud that will never be a real woman
All those characters were created in the '60s.
When Marvel wants blacked characters they create an AU like the Ultimate line. DC are the ones who arbitrarily just make people black for purposes.
But the characters are *still* white. And they've made characters explicitly raceswapped in 616 before. Kamala Khan, Riri Williams, Nick Fury Jr., there are literally hundreds of raceswaps in 616, and none of them are Asgardian.
There is a difference between "some Paki Girl takes on the abandoned name of Ms. Marvel while Carol Danvers takes on the mantle of Captain Marvel" and "Wally West is a Black now lulz".
It's subtle but I think if you think upon it. And yes I know they backpedaled on the Wally thing.
Yes and only asgardians com from asgard, the other worlds are midgard (earth), death realm, fire trolls realm (surtur), ice giants realm (loki), vanaheim, dark elves realm , rock trolls realm and dwarves realm. Kys lorelet, you have no idea what are ypu talking about
In the comics they were never aliens, that was a change for MCU. Even in the MCU they're the basis for Norse mythology, it makes zero sense for there to be blacks in Norse mythology.
And that justification should apply to Wakanda and the city in Shang-Chi. Wakanda's technological advancement comes from Vibranium, an alien metal. Why didn't white aliums come with it? Hm? HMMMMM? Shang Chi's city has magic, why aren't there any magical white, black or hispanic people? Huh?
If it makes sense for Asgard, then you can't justify it not being present in the other places.
>it makes zero sense for there to be blacks in Norse mythology.

>Rígr (Heimdall) was walking along the shore and came to a farm-hut owned by Ái (great-grandfather) and Edda (great-grandmother). They offered him shelter and poor, rough food for a meal. That night Rígr slept between the pair in their bed and then departed. Nine months later, Edda gave birth to a son who was svartr (swarthy, dark).
You found one, swarthy=/=black. Swarthy explicitly means dark-haired white.
the word used is svartr which means black

Its DARK you stupid fuck not black skinned
There is no such thing as black in nature, just shades of darkness. And since you seem to be too dumb to read I will post the first definition for you again
>Of a dark hue; black or blackish
so benjamin franklin thought swedes looked like sub saharan africans? gotcha. you are such a fucking retarded obtuse gay its not even funny
I could care less that the man didn't know the definition of the word swarthy, you can argue all day but it does not change the literal definition of the word
Swarthy isn't black-skinned, no one in northern Europe had even seen a sub-saharan black person at that point. Swarthy to them was literally anything less pale, fair haired and blue eyed than themselves.
see
you ever heard of black irish? The term literally goes back to the viking period, and no native irish are black skinned.
>Swarthy
Benjamin Franklin called Germans and Swedes swarthy.
he isn't wakandian and has a story reason to be there
not the same as dropping black character in say medieval Bohemia without a word of explaination
He is not wakandan you hack piece of shit
Northman has at least 1 black character.
Actually you can see whites in Wakanda (in Endgame, that was the one I saw). It felt weird to me, considering it was an isolated territory. I'd say it ruined the immersion but it was a shit movie anyway.
.Northman has at least 1 black character.
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>We do not grant you the rank of white
>Argentina being represented by a moron
Pottery.
I don't get this pic. There are ten times more white characters in media than black characters. Are you retarded?
>I don't get this pic.
Black women are 6% of the US population, whites are 60%. So yes dumbass, there are literally ten times as many white people. Pushing them in media the way they have is literally catering to a superminority.
How many black women there are in Rings of Power? 1? 2?
NINE non-whites playing explicitly European roles, since you asked bigot apologist.
>explicitly European roles
Some of those characters are in Harad (Tolkien's Africa) and one of those in the image is literally white kek
Dumb fucking chud
Uff...the cope is physically palpable...go eat a BBC, woketard
>Some of those characters are in Harad (Tolkien's Africa)
There are no black Elves, Dwarves or Hobbits. Are those actors playing a separate race from Harad, or are you a dishonest piece of shit?
>one of those in the image is literally white kek
HAHAHAHAHA, which fucking one? Point out the light-skinned European in that image dipshit.
Guy on the left seems like he could be Spanish
So not white? Looks more middle-eastern to me, bit either way clearly not white.
Its amazing how easy it is to identify you shitskins that flood every ROP thread, you cant even identify a white person
White British father, white Russian mother
He looks a bit med but is 100% Caucasian
Oh, I'm onto your game. His mother is middle-eastern but has Russian citizenship, so you just say "Russian" and hope we'll assume white.
Pathetic.
i just added that word to the filter and my posting experience has improved 3000%
Cope chud
Did they stop using pissbaby and shitlord because they thought those insults were offensive to people with incontinence issues?
>explicitly European roles
>Middle-Earth
Wow, way to show your ignorance. Tolkien specified in his writings and descriptions who each race was based on. Hobbits for example were inspired by the Irish. So yes, EXPLICITLY EUROPEAN.
>Hobbits for example were inspired by the Irish.
no they weren't
And Elves were inspired by Americans (Aman is American according to his later works) so Black Elves make perfect sense
>Elves were inspired by Americans
Wut
He stated the Elves are inspired by Scandinavian Europeans, being tall and slender.
'Is Aman “removed” or destroyed at the Catastrophe? It was physical. Therefore it could not be removed, without remaining visible as part of Arda or as a new satellite! It must either remain as a landmass bereft of its former inhabitants or be destroyed. I think now that it is best that it should remain a physical landmass (America!)'
God damn you hack piece of shit you deserve death, your convenient interpretation of tolkien's words is disgusting
>Elves were inspired by Americans

okay but why are you mad
>Why would you be mad about people using "changing demographics" as justification when the black population has actually decreased?
>Why would you be mad about a race being erased from history and all of their culture being stolen from them?

We all are. It's called moron fatigue.
they arent people.

Its all so tiresome
since when were hobbits literal plant-covered woodland creatures? I know they live in holes in hills but did they really need to add leaves into their hair and make them perpetually filthy? Also what the FUCK is up with that hairstyle on the right
it's like when they made radagast an old retard covered with birdshit. so stupid
And not just a retard covered in bird shit, but a fucking stoner.
I nearly forgotten that cringe
Clueless morons
this is probably before the hobbits lived in the Shire to be fair, they were called Stoors, the Harfoots being a principal family and the ancestors of the Tooks, and they lived in the Anduin vale which being between Mirkwood and Lorien is mostly wooded.
Looks crappy but it can't be worse than Jackson's Americanised trash, can it
>Jackson's Americanised
He's from New Zealand you hilariously ignorant oaf.
He is. New Line Cinema, however, is an American company. Therefore, the movies were created with the thought of catering to Americans.
Then why use his name? You just have a hateboner for the country that gave you the website you're posting on, because your country is shit. Penis-envy, pure and simple.
I have a hateboner for people masturbating to the film trilogy without even reading the fucking books
I read the books. Do you really think Tom Bombadil would have worked on screen?
It absolutely can be worse.
Lotr trilogy are decent films. You're just a contarian
I'm hyped OP!

sad about hobbits

yeh, im only curious if he is well known outside of the uk. I actually rate his theatre work
Did you know his great grandad was a slaver who sold black brothers into servitude for lots of cash?
He needs to apologise to black people.
I'm in the lunchroom at work and I literally just laughed out loud at the moron which startled everyone in the room because i'm a quiet shut-in at work but I just couldn't help it. The visual of a moron hobbit is just so ridiculous that I just can't help but laugh my ass off. It's impossible to take this shit seriously on any level lol.

>Why do they have to look like they enjoy living in dogshit? Why can't they have decent clothes?
Bilbo was a very upper class hobbit even before his adventure made him filthy fucking rich. Most of the Hobbits are peasant farmers, with a few exceptionally wealthy lineages. Samwise is some poor schmuck who is practically Frodo's servant.

I live 20 minutes away from Water World and I can't fucking stand it anymore.
Nothing is stopping anyone from writing black fantasy, or fantasy that heavily represents blacks, but nobody cares and you won't read it / watch it so you're left with breaking white people's toys to punish white poeple for not making it for them. You know that as long as white people have options, you can't force them to worship blacks.
why cant they make their own shows and fill it with as many africans as they want?
they should make their own adaptions from their written folklore
Sure they can, once they have a culture worth putting in there. Everyone else has a cool culture worth fitting in there somewhere, why don't they? Even the middle east has a shitload of cool weapons, mythology, weapons and clothes. They contribute shit like curved swords, flying carpets and djinns.
What does Africa provide?
>What does Africa provide?
Like the Vikings, living in huts, raping, murdering and stealing, and worshipping a bunch of shifty immoral Gods.
The Vikings have badass mythology, technology and combat tactics on par with medieval Europe at the time, built boats capable of sailing across the ocean and built wooden houses. They looked badass and did badass shit. Berserkers are an actual tactic they employed.
Africans weren't capable of sailing to the US, or employing tactics like the use of wooden shields to ensnare an enemy's weapon.
Don't forget their 'Boar snout' formation, gods bless whatever mad bastard was at the point of that, he's deffo being plucked up by the Valkyries first.
They are,but not in tolkiens universe.
but orcs have been a fantasy staple for decades
orcs weren't supposed to be blacks though
Tolkien said that they look like 'least lovely Mongol types' would look to medieval European and they speak like norfs

Disgusting whore is more open than OP's mouth in a dick rain
why have you circled the armour?
Massive gaps between the armour to make it easier to get killed, I assume.
The gaps in the wrists. In a sword fight hands/wrists are primary targets along with the head, since they are foward when you attack and so very exposed to your enemy. If you cut a wrist/forearm/hand the fight is over, you can't fight WITHOUT YOUR FUCKING HANDS. I know it's a show but armor that bitch up or put her on a bikini armor already. Also good luck with all that hair.
>gaps in the wrists
>gloves clearly cover up to half the forearm
what you talking about moron?
have a nice day. In the cover picture, she has gauntlets that do not protect her wrists. The anon posted a picture of real gauntlets which actually protect the wrists.
How can someone not understand what is the point of a gauntlet to begin with? It never occurred to them that, historically, it would've indeed easier to just skip except the wrist articulation if there wasn't a good reason to keep it in the first place.
gauntlets are just so fucking cool
I wonder if this new adaption will deal with racist themes? Or will both white and black hobbits live in harmony within the shire.
American culture is more disgusting than ever but consoom gays will still consoom no matter what. Don't be misguided, you all should shame the mindless consumers, not those who create such garbage. Bully the viewers of these shows. Shame them relentlessly. Make them feel embarrassed for their habits. You're powerless against big corporations, but you're not powerless against common people.
Russia just end it all please
>More importantly, will this series be a HIT or MISS?
I won't be watching because I have zero interest in it. But I am unable to predict if the show will be a triumph or a disaster.
They'll still win because audience will watch it just to hate. Best thing to do would be totally ignore this piece of shit and starve it of interaction.
>Christopher, my son, have I told you about the apes? Apes were animals living far South of Middle-earth. Said to live in the dark forests of the South,[2] they seem to have only been known in stories in the North. Probably due to their lesser intelligence, the word "ape", along with "maggot" and snaga, became an insult used by Orcs.[1]
Are there any known actors there?
