Digital 4K Middle-earth Extended Edition Bundles: LOTR or Hobbit $15, 6-Film Bundle Expired

I think people are just sick of Hollywood taking a source material from an author and injecting their own belief system that wasn't the authors. Tolkien was a devout Christian (Catholic). The entire Lord of the rings story patterns after the concepts of Catholicism. The burden of the ring, and the temptation of evil. Frodo carrying this cross like Christ. The destruction of the Ring and the fall of Sauron happens on the 25th of March, an absolutely pivotal date of Christian significance. Tolkien once said
"The Lord of the Rings is of course a fundamentally religious and Catholic work; unconsciously so at first, but consciously in the revision". Within his written letters (letter 142). He and C.S. Lewis were close friends. C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia was also Christian based. The character Aslan the lion, is supposed to parallel the"lion of Judah" aka Jesus of Nazareth, aka his nickname. These concepts go over most simpletons who enjoy these works. But people who know... care. These were the real visions of these artists works.

Ah yes. And for our next "diversity" virtue-signal, we're going to take some Japanese-based mythology and start working in Nigerians and Brazillians.

People like you always miss the point. Tolkien created a whole world. If you're going to play in that world, then you should have enough respect to play by HIS rules. Otherwise, go and make your own world and then you can put whatever you want in it.

Yes, please tell them they are forbidden from reading it. That will guarantee they will :-P
