Comedian and avid Tolkien fan to write the Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past, a new Peter Jackson-produced film based on unadapted chapters of The Fellowship of the Ring
Damn, I was hoping I wouldn’t come back to a comment like this. I suppose it’s a given in the metal community, lot of cool people, but a lot of shitheads too.
He can list all the names of Aragorn, Elessar, called Elfstone! Call me when he’s talking about the recurring themes of ‘The Machine’ which destroys all beauty and life for power and profit
all i’m saying is, there are plenty of actual tolkien scholars so why not listen to them instead of this fuckwit celebrity famous for pretending to be even more right wing than he is?
eh, every time i’ve heard him show off his expertise, it turned out he knew less than me and i’m nowhere near an expert.
he’s definitely read the silmarillion (probably a few times at least) but that alone isnt much.
He listened to the audiobook
Ok, but Blind Guardian slaps though.
Shame about Hansi doing that collab with Jon “Jonuary 6th” “Anti-Semitic Banking Conspiracy ‘Theorist’” Schaffer, but otherwise yeah they do.

If someone who actually succesfully wrote fantasy before tried this it would still be graverobbing. This is gonna be pathetic.
ohhh. yeah. maybe they did ask some tolkien scholars and they said “please let me die already”
