LOTR Rants | Mostly Aralas

We NEED to talk about the lotr show

first of all, hi 

im still alive thanks for asking

im so so so so so so sorry but i literally lost all motivation for this book and writing in general a while back and got srsly burnt out but ill try to update more often istfg i have like a million drafts for this book sooooo

ALSO THANK YOU GUYS SO FREAKING MUCH FOR READING THIS????? like WHAT???? the reads on this literally went up so fast????? what??? can you tell im in shock????

literally tho it warms my heart to see yall commenting and discussing and reccing fics in the comments, literally every time someone comments my heart actually melts so thank you guys so much

shout out to maria_darkhand !!!!!!!!!!!

miss gurl over here is the OG, she got this book up and running with her amazing comments

SO LETS ALL APPRECIATE THAT FOR A SEC *intense clapping for several minutes*

okay so back to what i was saying

i completely stopped updating this book a while ago but YESTERDAY i saw something on YT and i IMMEDIATELY thought of this.

that something that i saw was this mf:

yep, that is the freaking trailer for amazon's lotr tv show

and no i will not be referring to it as rInGs oF pOwEr

for me to call something or someone by its name I have to have a certain amount of respect for it. in this case..... well actually imma save that rant for later. point is in my mind its still just "the lotr tv show" but MAYBE (MAYBE) if it does something i genuinely like ill change my mind and itll get to be called by its title

we'll see 

anyways, i saw this on yt duh and i have THOUGHTS. so ofc im writing a chapter about it here. so first let's get one thing 150% straight:

There are two types of people when it comes to the LOTR show, those who think it might be alright, and those who think it'll be a total and complete and utter trainwreck.

I am very much divided between the two.

NOW BEFORE YALL COME FOR ME LET ME JUST EXPLAIN MY REASONS OKAY

ALSO I SAID DIVIDED OKAY D I V I D E D THERES STUFF IM EXCITED FOR AND THERE'S STUFF I HATE

so here is all the reasons that im NOT excited for the show (ill do a separate chapter for stuff i AM excited for):

1) the vibes. oh my fucking god dude is jeff bezos on crack????????????????

okay im sorry i dont usually swear in this book  but i freaking HAD TO BC OMFG OIEHODJKEBJDE

THE VIBES ARE SO SO SO SO OFF

like have y'all watched the trailer??? like REALLY REALLY watched it??? THAT IS NOT MIDDLE-EARTH

like that was genuinely one of my first thoughts after I watched the trailer: This is not Middle-Earth.  The vibes are just not Middle-Earthy

and whats even more ironic about it is that honestly if anything it gives me NARNIA vibes

like that bright atmosphere, the younger protagonists, the explore-the-world theme-- ITS NARNIA

AND THATS SO IRONIC BC TOLKIEN AND CS LEWIS WERE LITERALLY FRIENDS
