IDK about you guys but i haven& #39;t been excited about anything #Tolkien related for a long while now. Its pretty much just "Norse+Celtic myth but sorta racist-er and super conservative."

Now, this is absolutely not to say that i didn& #39;t love the books for their surface level story, #thehobbit is a masterclass in storytelling and #LOTR is absolutely amazing at displaying landscape and emotions, but it& #39;s sorta in the same way i love #narnia .

I just don& #39;t really get excited about things set in those settings, because there& #39;s too much attached, and an original story would just be so much more interesting. Anyway, thats just my take, what do you guys think?
