  1. The Shadow of Mordor has reached far indeed to acquire the TV rights.

  2. He claimed to be Catholic. His works were unashamedly Pagan.

  3. Single old man takes little boys into the forest to 'find the ring'. Diverse indeed.

  4. Well, Sauron care about the authenticity of Amazon story as much as he cares about one of his orcs languishing on the fields of Mordor tying to package 1001 boxes in an hour in 46 degree Celsius heat. Wait, what were you trying to say?

  5. Of the Silmarillion: When I was about 11 I went to the ends of the earth to get a copy of it. I found it so strange to read, having only read proper stories before.

  7. More like: "No Jeffrey, I would not got that way unless I have any other choice".

  12. Justifying his actions because he 'employs lots of orcs'.

  13. Tolkien said his works are not allegory. He said he hated allegory. If the book was 'Christian' Frodo would have been eaten by lions in a Roman circus and canonized by the Pope.

  14. Gandalf died for trying that stunt. Just try that with Bezos and watch what his bodyguards do to you.

  15. I love them too. But they are going to change them into a different story that might make you nauseous - like watching Luke Skywalker drink milk.

  16. No. He wrote it as an outlet for his language knowledge. Silmarillion was written as the Anglo-Saxon myth.

  17. Kathleen Kennedy would like to be in charge...

  18. Even Brokeback Mountain?

  19. Lol. That was actually more LGT/BLT than anything else.

  20. Game of Bone(er)s.
