It's time to discuss the greatest writer of the 20th century.

>> No.14929423

So is the generation of kids after Christopher a bunch of kikes who are going to turn his legacy into Star Wars with Elves (presaged by the Amazon series) or is there hope for any decent new content?

Would you really want it? There's already much there thanks to Christopher.

they are turning gandalf into a woman lmao, no there is nothing worthwhile coming. Thank capitalism for that. Although his own stuff is enough for a single lifetime, so stop always desiring something new just for the sake of new.

Gender is irrelevant to a wizard, given they are Isteri. But this is still stupid.

Tolkien wasn't even the best in his writing circle.

>> No.14929910

He is not even in the top 250 writers of the 20th century. Grow up.

By new content, I meant film portrayals of JRR's writings, not fanfic.

>>14929647
I guess you just posted that to look clever, but it is of course quite moronic to suggest Gandalf be a woman. He wouldn't be Gandalf in that case (interesting how all the Istari chose a male appearance, based as they were and well knowing no one would take a female's opinion seriously)

>> No.14930096

>>14929910
And not even the top 1000 British fantasy writers of the 20th century. He is that bad.

name 1000 British fantasy writers better than Tolkien

It's not irrelevant to Gandalf though. It ruins his Odin archetype.

>I was talking to a friend one day and he mentioned a book and then I went home and tried to find that book but I could not find a copy of that book but I found a book by a similar name and asked my friend (who recommended me the book) if this book was close enough to the book he mentioned but he said no so I went looking for the proper book but while doing that I looked in this other book (that was not the book but a different book) and in that I found a weird reference to a tribe so I went reading up on that instead
