I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
I have my hopes put on the videogame Embracer is developing. Being funded by Abu Dhabi I would guess (hope) it'll have 0 woke stuff.
J.R.R. Tolkien's The Return of the King released 70 years ago today
- Thread starter EviLore
- Start date
If I had to choose one scene from Peter Jackson's films that I truly hate and find disappointing compared to the books, it would be this one.
That and the ghost army.

I'm more pissed at those money-grubbing pricks at the Tolkien Estate for letting this clusterfuck go down by allowing these bastards shit all over J.R.R. and Christopher's legacies.
I'm hoping this will be fan-fixed with AI one day.
edit: toned down the profanities.

This passage was always a personal favourite of mine:
Tolkien had quite a unique way of communicating "oh fuck" to the reader.

It's amazing to realize that LotR was largely obscure for the first several decades it existed. It was published to little notice and it wasn't until years after Tolkien's passing that it gained attention after the growing popularity of fantasy settings driven by the early days of things like Dungeons and Dragons. Of course today it is acknowledged as one of the greatest works of English literature in the 20th century but it was not always so

That isn't really true, since the books began to have their first major cultural impact in the 60s - when the professor was very much still alive.
