Nice strawman. It's about the bastardization of a classic European tale for the sake of making it more inclusive. Ham-fisted writing like "The past is dead" etc. just reeks of pathetic writing. People don't hate black actors, black american stories or even african stories, they're annoyed that everything being rebooted has to have a black actor, a quip about white people and gay as frick meta writing. The Wire is filled with black actors and it's widely considered to be one of the best shows of all time.
>nobody's going to actually know who this character is because we didn't bother to research them so we'll just make them a Black person to fill the quota
Her mother is unknown in the books and that image is purely a fanart (probably by some slav self insert roastie)
Also Tolkien uses 'fair' to refer to beauty, not skin colour
>Also Tolkien uses 'fair' to refer to beauty, not skin colour
Tolkien always specifies hair/complexion when he’s using “fair” this way, for example “The Fallohides were fairer of skin and also of hair.”
>hate white people
I have a white wife and kids, you are probably a shitskin larping as white (like most of Cinemaphile)
I hope they replace all these fantasy movies with Black folk just to watch you pretend to cry and squeal some more like you are doing something useful with your worthless existence.
As a non thin-skinned male, I don't seethe about these fantasy shows made for literal children all day long
Stronk black quenz, you did not read any Tolkien book, did you? They were all about strong black female characters fighting against white supremacy & gender inequality in Middle-earth also we may finally see strong women leading orcish hordes truly brave and beautiful show.
yes. make your own culture. no one owes you inclusion just because your ancestors were sub 80 IQ apes who never managed to invent writing.
>white people write, direct, fund, cast, and watch ethnically and racially diverse productions >this is somehow the fault of black people
you cringecels and /misc/tards really need to reconsider this life you have chosen to live
youre all the same to me. israelites are white and whites are israelites. you all hate us the same, you all abuse and oppress everyone else. i literally cant tell you "people" apart
>These fricking Black folk were in the films for all of maybe 3 minutes, most of which was Sam and Frodo fricking around with a cape
You did well Jackson, but you fricking robbed us of the Haradrim
Those are Easterlings, you dinglefrick. The Haradrim are the guys on the mumaks.
The reason why we don't see that many Easterlings in the movie is because they were the main force that fought against Dale and the dwarves up north. If we had scenes of that war, we would have seen plenty of them.
Actually, now that I think about it, Amazon has the rights to the movies and The Hobbit, right? Doesn't this mean that they could show the War in the North? They'd have ample opportunity to show brown-skinned people through the Easterlings, albeit being slaughtered by the Men of Dale and the Dwarves of Erebor.

We see a few in the movie at Minis Tirith for like 5 seconds. It's curious because the Easterling contingent are noted for their bravery in the books. Instead of surrendering once the battle is lost they fight to the last man honerabu style.

Tolkien perhaps recalling what the Japs were like in WW2.
Numenor was a diverse nation to begin with, multiple tribes of men moved there including easterlings, warrior women of the haladin and Drúedain who were like forest abbos.
Also the House of Bëor ranged from 'pale to swarthy' in complexion, not to mention all the people that would have been brought over due to their colonial exploits around Harad and further afield.
Numenor being all white is not Tolkien's intention, it was completely multicultural
I thought if a group had an x at the end, like latinx, that meant they were a mix of local people and descendants of the plantation/slave ship owners?
Texicloaclo is a local name, Guzman is a latinx name, etc
No, the "x" thing is just a moronic attempt to turn gendered language neutral. They could have tried to force an "e" at the end, which sounds much more natural in Spanish, but, well, Marxists are all about deconstruction.
>‘These black men,’ said the landlord lowering his voice. ‘They’re looking for Baggins, and if they mean well, then I’m a hobbit. It was on Monday, and all the dogs were yammering and the geese screaming. Uncanny, I called it. Nob, he came and told me that two black men were at the door asking for a hobbit called Baggins. Nob’s hair was all stood on end. I bid the black fellows be off, and slammed the door on them. >What are these black men after, and where do they come from, I’d like to know? >‘But spooks or no spooks, they won’t get in The Pony so easy. Don’t you worry till the morning. Nob’ll say no word. No black man shall pass my doors, while I can stand on my legs.
I'm fairly confident that when Tolkien described the nazgul as "black riders" he was referring to their clothes, not the color of their skin - which was of course invisible
The forced diversity is one thing, but why are almost all of the cast so unattractive? Are they afraid of hiring good looking people now? Where are the 10/10 elf beauties at, for both men and women.
da culcha
>im so oppressed!! i need to be oppressed!!! there are BLACK people in bideo show!!!
don't you ever think about how much of a fricking loser you are?
how much is the Amazon shill pay?
Blacks aren’t people
amazon shills aren't people
We wuz kweens and sheit
Sometimes, but then upon remembering I don’t have gender dysphoria I just smile and continue my day with joy
Good bait

I fricking hate nignogs
Same actress that ruined Spartacus
Thats Tar-Míriel, the Queen who is, 'fairer than silver or ivory or pearls'
I thought Amazon want to respect existing characters. Why would they do this?
sheeeit homie donchu kno middle erf looks like skid row

>Also Tolkien uses 'fair' to refer to beauty, not skin colour
probably because everybody is white in the books
The only black skinned character in the entire Silmarillion is Ungoliath and in the Lord of the Rings the Half Trolls of Far Harad
This. By fair he meant Black person, because Black folk are fair. Thanks for btfoing these racists
>Also Tolkien uses 'fair' to refer to beauty, not skin colour

Then why didn't they get a beautiful black actress?
> It's just a coincidence Tolkien said she is fairer than a bunch of things that happen to be white
Weak shilling
>references pearls and ivory in particular
>fair doesnt mean white
>Also Tolkien uses 'fair' to refer to beauty, not skin colour
And now we start with woke mental gymnastics
That’s dishonesty. Please repent.
>Fairer than ivory
You people say this now. Can't wait for you to go full mask-off and admit you hate white people. Oh wait, you do that already anyway.
>hate white people

Cope seethe and dilate Black person
nice fanfiction. what shade of brown are you
this is absolute dishonesty. in british english if you describe someone as fair skinned or fair haired it always means white or blonde
because amazoom and yidsney and all the other media giants care more about appearing progressive than care about being faithful to the books
that's racist
Stronk black quenz, you did not read any Tolkien book, did you? They were all about strong black female characters fighting against white supremacy & gender inequality in Middle-earth also we may finally see strong women leading orcish hordes truly brave and beautiful show.
I hope strong independent poc womyn form an alliance with the orcs to bring down the oppressive system of white supremacy and the patriarchy.
Evil straight white male Halbrand becomes Sauron. Not kidding.
What an evil looking individual
>Should we add Haradrims and show how their culture works?
>nah just make every numenorian, elf, dwarf and hobbit Black folk, that will fill the quota
EVERYBODY HAS ALWAYS BEEN BLACK, STOP ASKING QUESTIONS
das fricking rite cracka. we wuz always here.
>all the cool fantasy races have to be entirely reserved for me, cause im a baby who cant share with others

Lmao just like real life

jews arent white

Yes, you are a baby.
Incel vibes, my dude.
They could have at least made the headpiece not look blatantly plastic

>These fricking Black folk were in the films for all of maybe 3 minutes, most of which was Sam and Frodo fricking around with a cape
You did well Jackson, but you fricking robbed us of the Haradrim
They appear in the siege of minas tirith too
99% of the Siege is Orce, and if I remember right you can't pick out the Harad unless you pause and squint at the right time. My point still stands
Those are Easterlings, you dinglefrick. The Haradrim are the guys on the mumaks.
The reason why we don't see that many Easterlings in the movie is because they were the main force that fought against Dale and the dwarves up north. If we had scenes of that war, we would have seen plenty of them.

So what happens when this bombs?
Will it mark thr beginning of the end for wokeness?
they have unlimited funds but limited IP's left to destroy so idk
Which part of the island did black people evolve on? Is one part sunnier than the other? I need to know for lore purposes.
Indigenous, the evil whites came and colonized it
Numenor was a diverse nation to begin with, multiple tribes of men moved there including easterlings, warrior women of the haladin and Drúedain who were like forest abbos.
Also the House of Bëor ranged from 'pale to swarthy' in complexion, not to mention all the people that would have been brought over due to their colonial exploits around Harad and further afield.
Numenor being all white is not Tolkien's intention, it was completely multicultural
you are not human
Yeah because numenorians would invite subhumans/lesser men (to his eyes) to their precious island granted by Eru himself
>Yeah because numenorians would invite subhumans/lesser men
They did, they even invited these fricks to live among them
>just noble savage my shit up
oh frick off, homosexual.
looks like an Indian drama
Should have just let Bollywood make it, it would be less shit
WTF is that Elendil?

Man, used to be a lot of pub landlords with that attitude.
NO DOGS
NO BLACKS
NO IRISH
I'm fairly confident that when Tolkien described the nazgul as "black riders" he was referring to their clothes, not the color of their skin - which was of course invisible
Yes, but he used the word 'black' so that means they were all Africans, in Amazon logic.
WE. WUZ. NAZGHOULS. N. SHIIIEEEET.

Havent you heard? That welsh tescos cheese counter girl is now 11/10 ethereal elf beauty.
nepotism, the industry is hijacked by SJWs which shun beautiful actors and actresses
I'm not one for religion, but a lot of the stuff these SJW types do all seem rooted in something evil.
it's a self destructive chaos cult, basically satan
>rooted in something evil
Forgive me for going /misc/, but the root here is Marxism.
>root here is Marxism.
Not it isn't. Pro tip: Julius Caesar was a proto-Marx.
