  1. The Right Is Obsessed With Lord of the Rings, and they don’t understand It. And any of these dopes, #Musk, #Thiel, #Vance, would clearly have tried to take the Ring for themselves.

    #Palantir takes its name from Tolkien’s “seeing stones”: powerful tools for seeing across distance, but also objects that deceive nearly everyone who uses them.

    That irony matters. #Tolkien distrusted the fusion of technology and power, especially government power. So what does it mean when a secretive tech firm built on government contracts wraps itself in his mythology?

  6. The wife and I played 'Fate of the Fellowship' last night. What a great co-op game. We won it by the skin of our teeth after 3.5 hours.

    Here we see Sauron and his Nazgûl swarming in the wrong place allowing the Fellowship to do other things unimpeded - which always raised a chuckle.

  24. You can quote J.R.R. Tolkien repeatedly, many times, over and over, where he says Middle-earth is OUR Earth, the entire Earth, "round and inescapable", "the habitable lands of men", and there will STILL be someone who replies with: "NO! Middle-earth is Europe! You're confusing Middle-earth with Arda!"

    Dudes - I'm quoting J.R.R. Tolkien. I'm not the one who's confused ...

  27. My ret-constellation for the #constellation #sagitta was to align it with a modern archer (rather than random assorted Hercules stories or an Apollo killing cyclops story) -- some options I considered:

    Kate Bishop Hawkeye
    Merida from Brave
    Robin Hood

    ... but ultimately, who would be better than Legolas?!

  33. Andy Serkis Confirms Aragorn Recasting For The Hunt for Gollum

    The upcoming film The Hunt for Gollum takes place between The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring. It follows a younger Aragorn as he chases the creature that once held the One Ring. Fans wonder whether Viggo Mortensen will return or if a new actor will wear the ranger’s cloak....
