rhouses Do I need LOTR context, which I don’t have, to get into this show? Or does it work for a Tolkien noob?
Hursty rhouses You don’t need to have read the books, as it would appear, most die hard fans aren’t into it. Depends if you are into fantasy epics I guess?
zackster Along_the_Wire Surely this doesn’t need its own thread?! Aye. Close her down, and do Hursty a favor.
Cankles-McJeggings I’ve never seen a single Lord of the rings although read the books (made to at school). Also never seen Harry Potter which I file as the same kind of fantasy shite for kids.
bosstrabs Cankles-McJeggings I’ve never seen a single Lord of the rings although read the books (made to at school). Also never seen Harry Potter which I file as the same kind of fantasy shite for kids. I agree. Adults being into this shite can fucking do one. Although I did watch Harry Potter on a BA flight recently, because 1) There was fuck all left to watch that I hadn’t already seen and 2) Just to spite the fucking cunts who are cancelling JK Rowling for allegedly being ‘transphobic’.
Hursty bosstrabs Yet there is a thread dedicated to the Marvel fantasy tripe on here and that gets a pass? Right-o
Dubman Went to the cinema to see the first Lord of the rings and fell asleep within half an hour. It’s a load of old tripe the same as potter.
C_J Dubman Went to the cinema to see the first Lord of the rings and fell asleep within half an hour. Same here Dubbers, although for different reasons entirely as I quite like the film as it happens but I was at the end of a massive 3 day festive bender. Still remember the painful jolts into consciousness at the loud bits.
bosstrabs Hursty Er, I also massively slag off the Marvel Universe, I like it about as much as you like FUD and FIAT Hursty
Along_the_Wire Hursty Yet there is a thread dedicated to the Marvel fantasy tripe on here and that gets a pass? There’s lots of different tripe safely contained in the one thread with that Marvel crap - this is tripe with its very own thread - things could really get out of hand on here if we aren’t careful and it starts with this load ol’ bollocks
