We have lost the greatest mind in the dynamic world of #Tolkien Scholarship. Like his Father he was an intellectual giant who poured his entire life into those monumental works. Never was the adage more true: He was a GENTLEMAN and a SCHOLAR. A memory. #RIPChristopherTolkien /1

In #TheRingsofPower they are not adapting, I sense, but rather it seems like a DISTILLATION. An alchemy of mixing ingredients guided by The Appendices. They’re trying to distill the essence from the ancient fibers of pages that Tolkien insisted on inclusion in ROTK back in 1955.

If you’re enjoying #MoonKnight and its tangled web of deities mucking about, causing and exploiting human tragedy, well you’re gonna be even more stunned with what is coming from #TheSandman and how The Endless behave on the mortal plane… (and so many others) Trust.

My favorite thing about the #TROP trailer overlapping with a plethora of #LOTR news is this: just to be able to engage with this intelligent fandom while they work out their excitement and nerves and passion for all things #Tolkien . It’s a joy to behold. May the fandom continue!

Across two decades I have volunteered at @theoneringnet ; and have witnessed the greatest creative minds in the performing arts — playwrights, musicians, filmmakers, illustrators. Not to mention the finest COSPLAY anywhere! #LOTR20 is an anniversary yet also a blessing: /1

That was amazing - and Hall H will never be the same. But all this news about #Sauron as played by an actor named Anson Boon? 🤔 I thought he was just a disciple of Sauron, and certainly not the dude himself looking all Slim Shady? #TheRingsOfPower

Now you know how we all feel at the mere mention of these two people who are in the background of Aragorn’s eyes as he sings softly to the hobbits in the wilderness. #FirstAgeofArda #BerenandLuthien

Does Thranduil have his own leitmotif? What instruments 🎻 make Mirkwood sound so disorienting? And Smaug’s theme is as angry as Bilbo! Watch-along with us #Hobbit : DOS as @jimjware @DougAdamsMusic and I take another deep dive into Shore’s score! TODAY 5pm PDT @theoneringnet

Wowza — okay there’s something they don’t have the license to use — but NOW I’M THINKING: it would be fascinating if Olórin remains named in #TheRingsOfPower strictly as Olórin, never once named as “Gandalf” the way he appeared to Círdan in the Third Age (as we see in the books).

Useful #Tolkien quote #TheRingsOfPower @LOTRonPrime : Regarding Gandalf (Olórin) in pre-Third Age Middle-earth, JRR Tolkien says it is likely -

And then we meet showrunners @Lo__Scrittore Patrick McKay and J.D. Payne #LOTRROP #TheRingsOfPower “Hey you guys — no B.S. — they have let us make the show *we wanted to make*!!” in direct reference to the studio’s non-interference in making their show. @LOTRonPrime
