I liked the OG movie orc more, but these are also good.
Orcs and dwarfs are done really well in the show. Men are done terribly. Elfs are somewhere in between.
The show is hit and miss.
>Men are done terribly
Its funny how its the easiest thing to do that requires only a little thought during the casting process and still they get it wrong
Trips of truth.
All they had to do, was to hire attractive people and make them competent.
Instead we get city of racist mixed people, who are all ugly and have no charisma.
>We are doomed because we are ... LE RACIST
Amazing, Bezos, amazing.
why would some inbred hillbilliys in the southlands all look like models?
>dwarves
>done really well in the show
Bait?
>"For the Naugrim have beards from the beginning of their lives, male and female alike; nor indeed can their womenkind be discerned by those of other race, be it in feature or in gait or in voice, nor in any wise save this: that they go not to war, and seldom save at direst need issue from their deep bowers and halls."
The elves are done fricking terribly, too. Ugliest people possible, the short hair makes them look not at all ethereal like they should, the guy with the fade looks ridiculous. Also they should all have fair skin.
Bearded female dwarfs would looks weird as frick. From all the things that are wrong with this show, this bothers me the least.
>Bearded female dwarfs would looks weird as frick.
As they should. That's what makes them interesting and a visually distinct species from humans and hobbits.
But instead of a transportive portrayal of a different world, the showrunners instead wanted to "reflect the real world."
No, I don't think I want to see bearded women.
Trannies irl are ugly b***hes enought.
>Turns orcs into vampires that cant stand the sun for 2 sec
Ah huh
That's not entirely inaccurate the orcs do seem to hate and fear the sun. In the book the Uruk-hai's ability to withstand the sun sets them apart from the goblins of the Misty Mountains
>In the book the Uruk-hai's ability to withstand the sun sets them apart from the goblins of the Misty Mountains
Because of training not because they're vampires who burn up in the sunlight.
>Because of training not because they're vampires who burn up in the sunlight.
Saruman explicitly interbred them with other races to produce orcs immune to sunlight. Mordor orcs are only able to leave en masse and attack Gondor because Sauron darkened the skies for them.
Where's the equivalent of their "back on the menu" scene?
YOU'VE ERNED A WA'ER RASHON
Why do these actors go back to short hair when they find out women cream their panties for long haired chads.
because IRL long hair is extremely annoying to maintain and if you're an actor it's always going to be a wig anyway.
Hey isn't this the moronic rapper from its always sunny?
no, thats not sauron
Realistically it’s because almost all male roles call for short hair unless you’re doing something historical, in which case they’ll probably just put you in a wig.
I liked the orcs in Bright
I love how they spraypainted them all white. Very progressive.
Lefties complained that orcs were black people, so to avoid criticism they made them ash white instead.
In the Amazonverse, all the created races have blacks in them, except for the one expressly evil race.
Are your expectation subverted yet, Chud?
>GAAAAAAAAAAAH! I MUST RETURN TO MY COFFIN AT ONCE!
this you
Holy shit
Good catch.
Corporate PR ops detected
Oh wow, an actual corporate ad on Cinemaphile. I hope they’re paying you well, shill
I thought for sure that one Elf with the big eyes would be turned into a goblin because he already looked like a goblin but instead they sent him to Valinar.
IMO true Tolkien orcs would look less horrific
Tolkien orcs would look more goofy, degenerated & comical, not straight up horror movie faces
That's way creepier than movie/show depictions because of the weird proportions. I forget, what is the distinction between goblins and orcs in Tolkien lore? Been a million years since I read the books but wasnt it goblins in the hobbit and then suddenly orcs in lotr?
Goblins and orcs are the differernt words for the same creature. Tolkien stopped using goblin after the Hobbit because of it's French roots apparently.
>I forget, what is the distinction between goblins and orcs in Tolkien lore? Been a million years since I read the books but wasnt it goblins in the hobbit and then suddenly orcs in lotr?
There is none. In The Hobbit, "orc" is used a couple of times and is implied to refer to particularly large goblins, but in most other places, orc applies to the whole species and goblin is used interchangeably with it on occasion.
i like how the orcs are now white skinned to remind us of the evil white devils in real life twisted and created by yakub.
They're great, but how come everything else is so bad?
Basically just a copy of the movie creature designs but painted them white.
I think its more the default that leftists can only create ugly things, so when you want something truly ugly it looks great.
Why do orcs have blue eyes in RoP while elves have Black person?
These are goblins.
ORCS HAVE PIG FACES, b***h
They are not convincing, because:
>I wan't them to remove those stupid masks
>They act and talk like humans
>they're all white and keep black slaves
a bit on the nose amazon
>[makes empty assertion with no depth or introspection]
I refute it thus - no it does not.
