JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and Other Middle-Earth Stories Book • Page 17

I didn't even think about it being all one viewing, that's insane.

 

Cowards.

The 10 hrs thing not the pandemic thing

 

^^

 

I'm fine with just ordering a pizza and watching all three extended editions on a Saturday.

 

Literally what my friends are doing. Getting lots of food (doing a second breakfast) and watching it on a Saturday.

 

Last fall I watched all three extended edition Hobbit films in one day - it was bruuttalllll


Also, this is fantastic - incredible how much of a LOTR nerd Stephen is

 

More details about the new Amazon series currently filming - such as Amazon paid $250 million for the rights, and that the whole series will most likely end up costing more than $1 billion

I would love to watch him do a 3-hour lecture about The Silmarillion.

 

On the one hand, I think it is misleading that they continue to keep calling this Amazon series 'Lord of the Rings' when all of the information is showing that it is not.....
buuut then, on the other hand, when I keep reading about the ungodly sums of money they are pouring into this, I can see why they are desperate to keep a name with that level of recognition attached to this thing.

 

That's crazy. Dumb question, but does a sale of the trilogy together in one binding count as 1 "book" sold?

 

get shit on JK

Hmmm.

 

Will we finally find out where Gondor was when the Westfold fell?

 

he was taking a shit

 

THOSE ARE THE TREES OF VALINOR

 

(Do we need a thread for the show?)

 

I haven’t been this excited for anything as much as this in a while.

 

The fact we're getting Wheel of Time and pre-Third Age Tolkien adaptations is really sending me for a loop.

 

Ugh a whole year the world might have ended by then

 

I wonder if they'll rebrand it from "The Lord of the Rings on Prime"
