I love that we quote simpsons and hitchhikers here. I always enjoyed the bit about Zem, the mattresses. and that robot who shouted hells bells because he took out the floor from underneath him. Did they ever make a series with all the books? The og series was great as was the movie with the guy who played every role I ever wanted to but never became an actor. Of course now I can't play anyone but a trans woman cos that's exactly what I choose to look like.
Martin Freeman or Sam Rockwell? I have had the biggest crush on Sam Rockwell since I saw Hitchhikers when I was 13.
Martin freeman. He also played someone important in lord of the rings I think. yadda yadda, both are better in print.
Bilbo, his name is Bilbo.
Indeed it is. I thought frodo initially but no. Bilbo. Bilbo is kinda mean in lotr. Ruined by the ring.
Agreed, both are exceptionally better in print, though I posit that LoTR is more palatable to a wider audience in movie-form; the books read like an account of a history of a world (which, as we know, it definitely is and was intended to be a history and not a story) but the movie makes it easier to understand, strains out the songs or adds them in better ways than recounting them over pages and pages ahah
The Silmarillion should be many many films, one or multiple for each chapter. Just Luthien and Beren are a few films, and Turin Turumbar would be like watching a shakespeare tragedy lol!
Feonor did nothing wrong.
Controversial! I have so much to say about this looool
what's a few boats and a little genocide
They were his sparklies, his!! He did everything for them. Ingrates.
aw man, the teleri didn't deserve to be murdered for their boats lol
100% Sam Rockwell. There’s something a bit off about Martin Freeman. He doesn’t come across as very nice.
Yeh nah no Martin. Gimme Sam at a Fijian resort pretty please 🤤 😍
