    Just learned that Harvey Weinstein tried to force Peter Jackson to make The Lord of the Rings as one single two-hour movie, prompting the production team to ditch Miramax and switch to New Line Cinema. So not only is he a serial rapist, but he was shit at vision for cinema? Mediocre rapists go far.

    Hot take: if you don’t want to see the Andy Serkis Lord of the Rings movie because of Serkis’ rancid vibes; the animated LOTR: War of the Rohhirrim movie that nobody saw was actually good and textually about how women’s contributions to history are often erased to venerate men.

    The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word? "I can't carry it for you, but I can Fucking carry you"

    Before Peter Jackson ever made LOTR, a friend in school discovered that his dad had a rare videotape of a movie version of Lord of The Rings in his cupboard for safekeeping so a bunch of us stole it to watch anyway turns out it was in fact called Lord of the G Strings and was a v diff kind of film

    Went on a date to see the 3rd Lord Of The Rings film. Getting into bed later I did a Gollum impression and grabbed his dick while saying "my precious." The look of horror on his face I thought I'd fucked up. Later on when he came he shouted "for Frodo!" 15 years married this year.

    The trouble with that Hunt for Gollum movie is that it is an actual Tolkien Lord of the Rings thing and could be good but calling something “The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum” sounds so incredibly stupid and made up that you really have to go out of your way to find any sense of goodwill

    Watching the 2007 Golden Compass movie is a great chance to realize Roger Ebert gave this a perfect four-star rating, which he never did for any Lord of the Rings movie. (Ebert had an unexamined prejudice, I think, that fantasy was for children and should have that audience in mind always.)
