I genuinely never understood the appeal of these movies. They're tacky, schlocky, fantasyslop. Yet they're held up as some grand achievement, have won Oscars, and every /misc/ack here uses them as some symbol of "Aryan Pride" or whatever.

...but how many 40k Space Marines would it take to simply walk the one ring to Mt. Doom?
Considering how easily marines are corrupted by chaos? They'd never make it
Maybe you're just brown, OP. What kind of stuff do you like?
Same. They'll never hold a candle to the MCU from Iron Man 1 to Endgame. Now THAT'S an epic saga.
>epic saga
>only one or two of like 20 have any rewatch value
okay pal
You have to be white
>I genuinely never understood X
Intellectual laziness is not something to boast about
agreed, it's depressing how common that wording is.
>I fail to understand...
yeah no shit moron, apply yourself for frick's sake.
The biggest LOTR nerd I ever knew was a really dark skinned Muslim classmate of my brother, so I never saw it as a "whites only" thing either.
He was probably an NPC, who didn't realise that he was part of the army trying to destroy Middle Earth, just like real life.
Yes, you got it, just like real life! Heckerino!
Are you trying to be funny? Reply after the hide, and keep in mind the rest of the board is filtered. No, I'm not kidding, and I filtered any thread that potentially has non-whites. I'm sure they showed up in this one too, judging by the replies.
Nah, you're just being contrarian.
>implying what's popular has to be actually good
the success of the MCU proves you wrong
This movie is so white even my friends and I noticed it like 15 years ago. "You ever notice there's not a single black guy in the entire movie?" That being said will always be one of my favorite movies ever and definitely top trilogy, frick star wars.
Protip: there's countries where it's normal not to see Black folk every day
This trilogy mogs star wars so hard it’s not even funny
hell no
>luke, han, leia vs shitty hobbits
>john williams vs whatever it is thatb lotr had
>vader versus some eye
>the redemption of vader versus muh tumbling gollum
lotr is so bad compared to the OT it isnt even funny
Ok lets see you make better movies. Too hard? Thought so
who asked
If you can't understand why Fellowship of the Ring is good, you don't have a soul and I mean that unironically. You don't get *it* and you never will
the hobbits are just not being portrayed by very likeable actors so why would anyone care
They are incredibly long and boring. You have to really want to like LotR to get it. The whole thing about them was that it made fantasy grounded and realistic so people could be really autistic about them.
it was written by a christian english author almost 100 years ago.
sounds like you just dont understand the books or movies. good luck.
It's okay Jamal. You have your Black Panther movies. Let us white folk enjoy our Lord of the Rings.
>I genuinely never understood the appeal of these movies
Well you have very low IQ. It's okay. Why don't you go watch some Netflix?
...do something for us, anon.
I want you to think about an apple. A big, fresh, crisp, reddish/yellowish honey crisp apple. What do you see in your mind's eye? Let us know, it may answer your question.
While ALL human beings born naturally are miracles of life and SOL's work...not everyone has the real Instinctu Divinitatis in their mind and innate fire in their heart.
Praise SOL
well the bar for fantasy movies isnt very high and they have good production value too
but yeah they're quite mediocre
Serious question. If Gollum spends 500 years in the tunnels of the misty mountains, how does he somehow know the terrain of middle earth like the back of his hand?
The army of Mordor captured Gollum, to find out where The One Ring is. That's why there's the scene of him yelling
>Shire
>Baggins
He didn't die, which means they let him go, and that means he knows the area well, because he had to return home after being captured.
Should have been paying attention, dood.
your loss
You're obviously homosexual.
sorry you're not white
Can't believe it's perceived as wholesome when it's just slop for westerners to live out their us vs them genocide fantasies
>If someone is the enemy, it's okay to kill endless numbers of them
He's right about Lord of the Rings, but people in the East believe the same thing. Makes me wonder what you are. Are you some rootless yellow who doesn't know what your own people are like?
