This is a group that is based on The Lord of the Rings world created by J. R. R. Tolkien. This includes any of the professor's works related to the Middle-Earth legendarium, like The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, The Silmarillion, The Unfinished Tales,The Hobbit and the Children Of Húrin.
Rings of power, it's not LOTR or anything else related to Middle Earth and Tolkien. Unfortunately this kind of garbage continues to be accepted in this group that I thought was about Tolkien. I'm leaving.
Same here.
I watched the trailer for War of The Rohirrim. I can see where Eowyn got her spunk.
Why are there ROP images in the group? I thought it was a group of Tolkien fans (and fans of the PJ movies). And that crap is not Middle Earth. Please moderators...Ugh. 🤢 Is there someone moderating? Or nobody cares?
(Yes, at the moment I don't have much to do and after seeing 3 images of that crap, I decided to post. I don't even know if there is someone active moderating.)
We accept all depictions and adaptations of Tolkien's works, with the exception of works contatining elements that weren't done by the poster (screenshots and AI, although that is getting harder to identify and I don't have time to do that for every picture). I personally haven't watched ROP, but if it stirs someone's creativity and brings them to Tolkien's works, I don't see a reason to not accept it just like illustrations of fanfiction and original characters in Middle-earth.
Hon, that's the thing. It's not Tolkien. It's not an adaptation.
I'm not just throwing hate here. The PJ movies are adaptations. This Amazon series invented things out of thin air. They completely destroyed the lore. They destroyed the characters and spat on the books. They themselves said they were going to rewrite and improve the story (like WTH?)
And look, I'm not that much of a purist fan. I thought it made sense for the movies to swap Glorfindel for Arwen. (And I love Glorfindel)
On Instagram, on one of the LOTRS profiles, people ask not to post anything related to this series. So, I'm not talking nonsense.
It makes me want to scream when I see people shipping Galadriel 'Xena' with Sauron.
