Yes, I'm going to be catching a lot of flack from people in comments yelling at me that actually Finrod was the best elf or Beleg was or blah-blah-blah and they'll die on that hill. But hear me out. Of all the characters in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Silmarillion, the elf prince Maglor is one of... Continue Reading →
Feanor from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion is one of those characters where you either hate him or you love him to bits and will die on that hill. Reddit forums galore have been created centering around him, ranging from having well-thought-out arguments in the form of memes and comments defending/condemning his actions to having a...

If you are part of the groups known as Millenials or Gen-Z or heck even Gen-X, then you probably know what a fandom is. Either you have friends who are active in a fandom, or maybe you were or maybe your kids won’t shut up about a fandom they’re in. If you went to public... Continue Reading →

However, something you might not know about the world of J.R.R. Tolkien is that he was writing about it as long ago as... Continue Reading →
As I said in yesterday's post, Rings of Power is a case study in everything wrong with modern-day television. Not only is it a perfect storm of intersectionality politics, fan-baiting, poor story telling, and much more, but it is something that shows that fandoms can and will have the guts to stand up against the...

Picking up from where I left off yesterday in my on-going review of the monstrosity known as Rings of Power, I'm back with even more reasons as to why this show is an absolute dumpster fire. As I go on with this review, it is becoming ever clearer to me that Rings of Power is... Continue Reading →
