“We understand how cherished these works are and working together with our partners at New Line Cinema and Warner Bros Pictures, we plan to honor the past, look to the future, and adhere to the strongest level of quality and production values.”

Aka it’s going to be “modern times”

I'd say they couldn't do a worse job than Amazon, but lets face it, they absolutely could.

It's quite the challenge. We'll see if they're up to the task.

I certify this woke reboot project, as pre-failed.

What will it cover? I fully believe it will be more hack showrunners who want to reflect the modern world and crap on Tolkien’s work

Probably have a story about Gandalf and his new gay lover, a black hobbit.

No way it will have a male lead. Maybe female wizard that was not in the books do to the patriarchy that is in fact stronger then all the other wizards. She is also a black lesbian

With Warner Broes at the helm, it could honestly go either way. They have released based works even in the recent past, but every time they do that they turn around and release the wokest trash known to man. That quote higher up the thread certainly doesnt help.

Well if the bring in Tom Shippee that will be a step in the right direction. Amazon fired him

NO. FUCKING. HATE-WATCHING.

I'm proud to say that I never hate-watch these woke shitfests themselves, though I will confess to sometimes watching Youtubers who review said shitfests, (Critical Drinker, Disparu, Little Platoon, RLM, etc.) But even that is getting tiresome. I just don't have the mental energy or even curiosity to see what they'll do next. Wokeness, even the vilest subversions of beloved art, is boring.

Just skip it. No reason to promote it. Hell if The Guardian is promoting it you know it's full on trash.

I'm not promoting it. Is a warning for another "adapted for modern audiences" woke shit storm.

There is a small chance that Warner Brothers see a good opportunity to make a good adaptation after the disaster that was Rangz of Power, there is definitely some potential for them. But, most likely they're going to turn it to woke garbage.

The Guardian nuff said - it'll be woke garbage. I think that's all that's left in Hollywood. The Woke and insane... wait that's redundant isn't it?
