My favorite scene was the end of season 1 when that female villager gets stabbed in the gut and the helpelss look on her face as her fertile young body is wasted and she falls to the ground submisisve utterly to death with a pathrtic moan of pity, gave me a rockhard boner. I cant find anymore but if anyone can make it a clip and catbox it that'd be great. Just the thought of all those pretty young peasant women being horribly painfully butchered by ugly orcs with jagged iron weapons and their innocent lives being ruined as they sink to the ground and writhe in agony before submitting utterly to the interminable will of death, turns me on so much.

I would watch these episodes with my friends while drinking heavily. I would pause it to rant about the lore and what they got wrong. I laughed a lot at this scene. It's just ridiculous. Yes, Tolkien says they reproduce like all life does. That doesn't mean they are loving families, caring about farming and shit.

>https://www.tvinsider.com/1150296/lotr-the-rings-of-power-season-2-orc-baby-family-explained/
>Jackson is actually the one who took the big creative liberty with the orcs. Just because the Oscar-winning director is regarded as a trustworthy person to adapt JRR Tolkien’s work doesn’t mean he didn’t add his own ideas into the movies.
>The creation of Mordor in Season 1 was driven by Adar and the orcs’ desire to carve out a sunless home for their race whose skin burns in daylight.

This is the biggest fucking change. Complete nonsense. Aversion to the sun is not the same as it BURNING your skin.

>“The idea of hinting that he has an Orc family or an Orc child felt like a really important part of understanding what might motivate him,” McKay continues

Fucking KEK. Orcs want to kill you and take your stuff. It is in their nature to hate anything non orc. Orc males would treat orc females like muslims on steroids. In the books, orc soldiers talk about wanting to go off on their own and get their own loot for themselves, and not serve Sauron. They're not motivated by a fucking family.

It's all just so fucking gay. and looks like dogshit >>215649680

>>215644901
LOTR is famously a Christian media, Christianity ofc being a story of redemption to even the most unredeemable. Interestingly Lotr offers no redemption to the orcs. Staunch defenders of the Christian-ness of lotr will say that orcs are too far gone for the god of LOTR's mercy but RoP's depiction puts that into question.
>>
>>215650387
"Christian" means nothing, Tolkien didn't even know his own theology and mixed Calvinism with Catholicism along with pagan aesthetic, the result? a world that makes zero metaphysical sense and you can read his own letters where he talks about these "problems"
>>

>>
>>215650387
the singular of media is a medium, you absolute american
>>
>>215649619
Also the fact that whenever Tolkien was asked about rape in his setting he went full Catholic in his replies ("If anybody tried to rape an elf her soul would depart her body before the villain had the chance to carry out the foul deed."), so it would be rather dishonest to import such edgelord material from your japanese hentais.

>Christianity ofc being a story of redemption to even the most unredeemable.

>>
>>215648756
I mean assuming they are then we already have perfect evidence of their violent nature from the actual LOTR films. Even the "best" of them are still violent savages
>>
>>215650413
Surely it means something to those who insist on the Christianess of LOTR. Tolkien's depiction of the orc race provides some wiggle room for it which RoP has now destroyed.
>>
>>215650447
A Christian medium would refer to a Catholic priest
>>
>>215650553
Orcs being twisted elves actually make a perfect analogue for the fallen man.
>>
>>215646232
Orc women share the same 'rights' and the same fate as Skaven women. Tolkien never went into that in detail because it was to unsavory for the story he wanted to tell. But you can bet that a race that's so degraded on a spiritual level that they almost always self-destruct without a dark lord opressing them is not going to form loving, nuclear families in order to reproduce.
>>
>>215644901
Not Tolkien = NOT LOTR. Hollywood is nothing but a cultural parasite.
>>
>>215646357
Who raises the baby orcs
>>
>>215650387
Tolkien also famously stated that they are in theory not beyond redemption. But in practice it would be so hard and unlikely for them to do that you'd need the intervention of a Maiar or Valar for this to happen plausibly within the narrative framework.

Orcs don't just lowkey and spontaneously form loving nuclear families as portrayed in Rangz of Wokeslop. Total nonsense in terms of LotR canon.
>>
>>215650439
>>215649642
Those were uruk hai. Tolkien said orcs procreate like humans
>>
>>215650847
Their slave masters. Whether that be a darklord or just another orc chieftain. Orcs are canonically slaves and they probably mature really fucking fast.
>>
>>215650886
When did Tolkien say that
>>
>>215650859
Acshually, Uruk-Hai is just a name for orcs bred and trained in Isengard. What we see in the movie most closely resembles 'Half-orcs' from the books. Those were elite breds of men and orc that often formed sergeants and the like for Isengard. But Hackson preferred the name Uruk-Hai because it's cool, I suppose.
>>
>>215650847
They themselves. As soon as one of the captives births one it skitters off like an animal. They hide in holes and crevices watching the adult orcs. They quickly dash out to grab scraps of food that fall when the adults are eating. The weak ones die quickly. Eventually they grow too big to hide anymore. Then they become the lowest rung of the orc hierarchy, doing whatever bigger ones wish. The entire time learning by watching or as commanded
>>
>>215650857
'There is no one righteous, who understands, seeks God, or does good'. We are orcs in the Bible
>>
what did you expect, that orcs just sprang up from the ground or materialized out of thin air?
>>
>>215650898
Say what exactly? Orc populations bounce back insanely fast after being decimated which implies that they mature and reproduce much faster than all other races.

The slave motive is omnipresent in orc dialogue etc.When there is a whip there is a way etc.

The conclusions are thus heavily implied, unlike the contrasting propositions of loving orc couples and families. Which seems like a total betrayal of how orc psychology is portrayed throughout the entire body of work. It's this take on orc reproduction, that would need explicit confirmation to be plausibly considered canon. Not the other way round.
>>

So true we are all the orc race I will now let in 100000000 Moslem refugees!1!

You should follow your own advice.Uruk-hai just means orc-folk.
They are not a seperate species.
>>

Uruk-hai are absolutely a new breed. They are not the half orcs. Otherwise they would call them such.

Nothing you posted disputes what I said, anon

All uruk-hai are uruks, but not all uruks are uruk-hai. (and uruk-hai are not simply half orcs.)

Very debatable. Orcs are below most animals however so it checks out either way.

>ruk-hai are absolutely a new breed. They are not the half orcs
That's exactly what I said, why are you even disagreeing. The uruk-hai in the movies borrowed the backstory from half-orcs, being artificially crossed with humans, whereas uruk-hai in the books where just a particular strain of orc, if even that.
>>
>>215651006
We absolutely are orcs. The men and in Lotr have the intrinsic capacity to be good still in spite of one's susceptibility to temptations. That's Adam and eve pre fall practically. We on this earth however biblically speaking do not.

There's actually a debate about that. But even if not, they are just one strain among many orc subspecies. They were not artificially grown in mudholes and there is nothing to suggest they were recently crossed with humans. Also they are not that much taller and stronger than normal orcs, unlike the 'uruk-hai' in the movies which thus more closely resemble half-orcs from the books.

There is no goblin culture, there are no goblin families. That´s not how it works. They are monsters and the only good goblin is a dead goblin. Period.

I remember when the good people at Amazon proudly stated they were going to go over aspects of the world Tolkien had ignored. He didn´t ignore it, he was a master of world building and built everything he cared to build. If he didn´t write about it it´s simply because, in his world, such things didn´t exist.

Contemporary hacks are obsessed with making every world they work on a reflection of our own because they are fucking hacks that can´t write for shit if a world has it´s own logic. Furthermore they fucking think subverting expectations and deconstructing tropes is a good thing... because they are hacks.

The original orcs were elves captured, twisted and corrupted through torture, mutilation and whatnot. In short they are made to be evil, made to destroy. There is no good or inner beauty to them, they certainly don´t have families (which Tolkien would have certainly considered a force of good) or a culture of their own because all they were left with were destructive traits. They steal, they murder, they rape (that´s how they reproduce), they kidnap and slave, they lie, they make tools for war. They are ruled by hate and fear and the only law they obey is that might makes right. That´s it, that´s what orcs are. The extent of their "culture".

I know it´s hard for contemporary sensibilities to accept but in narrative fantasy settings it´s completely normal for evil just to be evil and good just to be good. Some races are just aligned with the forces of good and others with the forces of evil and it is that simple.

Why shouldn't they depict Orcs like that? The entire plot of RoP revolves around them being free from a Dark Lord's influence and rallying behind one of their own kind instead? It was also a tragedy that the Orcs and Maiar came under the influence of Morgoth and throughout the legendarium we see how men could be next and very nearly were
