Stephen Colbert Explains 'Lord of the Rings' Movie Career Pivot

 

Jamie Dornan looks like a Strider. I’m not angry with it

 

is that official???

just going by looks alone, he certainly looks a lot like younger LOTR era Viggo, and he's a solid actor. seems like a good choice.

 

Folks who never read the books are going to be beyond confused with the time jump that the movie trilogy glosses over.

 

you gotta SHOW IT like Bakshi did back in '78

(I can't find a GIF or a clip)

 

And Morgoth came.

 

wat o_0

 

I imagine a lot of that is secondary shots, scenery, etc. Would still be interesting though.

 

I hope this is the season Sauron is sent to Numenor

 

Minas Tirith set looks great, but I’m not a big fan of building micro sets that don’t fit with the minifigures. If it was a match to scale with the minifigures and a giant set of just the courtyard and tree I’d be buying it day one. But I’ll pass on this.
