“It felt only natural to us that an adaptation of [author J.R.R.] Tolkien’s work would reflect what the world actually looks like,” executive producer Lindsey Weber told Vanity Fair, which also published several new photos from the series.

It’s only natural to remain true to the story line in the book and not co-opt it to try to skim a profit off the work.

I’m so tired of movies and series trying to fill up their diversity quotes with lousy actors with no talent for acting, who ruin the flow of what could be really good movies.

I laugh at all the blacks, asians and whoever they run now in ads......it’s like they’re all reading scripts in hopes they’ll be discovered, only we have to suffer through them.
