>got excited when it was first announced>saw all the negative reactions and skipped it at the time>finally got around to watching it anyway>it's actual kinoWhat the hell went wrong with the reception this movie got? It was more sincere and genuine than anything made for a big western IP in 20 years, especially when it comes to fantasy works, but you'd never know it looking at the reviews
>>221037139kys franchisefag
>>221037157What the fuck are you talking about schizo
>>221037139oversexed anime artsyle just doesnt work with lord of the rings themes especially not with a women mc
>>221037190>oversexedDid you watch the movie? There's nary a tit in it
>>221037171>franchisefag can't imagine existence as someone who doesn't worship ip
>>221037139how the hell is kino? all the characters are idiots
>>221037190Sexxooo?Fr fr?
>>221037210You're still not making any sense
>>221037205anon i dont care anime artstyle these days is synonymous with porn at best and pedophilia at worst, you asked why it flopped, i told you.
>>221037220>all the characters are idiotsJust like Tolkien wanted
It’s bottom of the barrel slop that fucks with the lore, at least Rings of Power has some redeeming qualities and production value.
>>221037139it wasn't very good
>>221037139I see it anon, I watched on a flight thinking it would just be some nice background noise and it got hooked.The plot is surprisingly tight for a modern production.
>>221037242>synonymous with porn at best and pedophilia at worstOnly for covid normie tourists and they always just self report
>>221037139i might watch. hows the english voic acting? is it terrible like all recent anime dubs?
>>221037139>I watch cartoonslol
>>221037323You deranged fagdividual. This movie was dogshit. Also saw it on a plane. I have seen fanfiction with less cringe writing. Its almost as if the writers were (a) retarded and (b) told to reuse as many lines from the LOTR trilogy as possible.
>>221037394>hows the english voic acting? is it terrible like all recent anime dubs?It's really good>looked for a Japanese dub to avoid the usual American VA cringe >while switching audio streams overheard Brian Cox as the king>decided to leave it on English for he but it ended up being really fucking good in generalI can't remember the last time I heard English-speaking VAs deliver their lines so earnestly in a fantasy series, I thought it was an extinct concept, especially after just coming off of Vox Machina and the Mighty Nein where the VAs are pros (unlike anime dubbers) but still sound embarrassed by the story they wrote themselves
>>221037516>I have seen fanfiction with less cringe writingLiterally zero cringe in the whole movie
>>221037516being this sensitive is a feminine trait, btw
looks gay
>>221037139Watched it on opening day in a completely empty theater. It was alright but honestly it really didn't feel anything like Lord of the Rings to me.
>>221037226stop replying to him, he is an indian zoomer.
>>221037157based>>221037171kys yourself faggot
>>221037139slop
>>221037190This, it almost looks AI-generated, you need a way more detailed style for middle earth like Vinland Saga or something
>>221037139>>221037171retarded brown zoomer
>>221038095What the fuck, it literally looks better than Vinland Saga
>The War of the Rohirrim has its own dedicated hater schizoDamn
>>221037139The movie had a plot that hinged on happenstance and people acting stupidly, that's why people shat on it. If you didn't notice the glaring flaws, then I'm afraid you were either distracted or too low IQ to notice. No biggie, you were clearly the target audience.
>>221037139it's not kino, its boring as fuck
>>221038196>The movie had a plot that hinged on happenstance and people acting stupidlySo just like The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings?
>>221038226>So just like The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings?Anon the Brown... Anon the FOOL
>>221037139>>it's actual kinoWere you dropped on your head as a baby?Which part would make it kino?The amateurish dialogue written by the producer's daughter? One-dimensional villain? Protagonist who has no motivation to do anything? Helm Hammerhand being reduced to a tertiary character in favor of their female OC? Art style that walks the awkward line between realistic and exaggerated, and fails to take any real advantage of the animation medium? Or the modern generic anime character design that doesn't understand the medium it is lifted from?
>>221037139it's barely mid, they were so afraid of telling a different story they copied scenes from the movies
>>221037139I've never seen it.
>>221037139it was fine but unnecessary. It would have been kino if it had a better art style like in your pic, and not looked like a cheap anime
>>221038295>The amateurish dialogue written by the producer's daughter? It was basic but not amateurish, fitting for what was originally just part of the side appendix>One-dimensional villain? In LOTR? >Protagonist who has no motivation to do anything? What do you mean, her motivation is to save her people, she spends all movie trying to do it >Helm Hammerhand being reduced to a tertiary character in favor of their female OC? The dynamic is no different than Frodo and Aragorn, Frodo is technically the protagonist and POV but Aragorn gets to do all the cool hero king stuff, Helm's the highlight of the movie >Art style that walks the awkward line between realistic and exaggerated, and fails to take any real advantage of the animation medium? I prefer it over the generic real life New Zealand in the Jackson movies >Or the modern generic anime character design that doesn't understand the medium it is lifted from?It was a Japanese production
>>221037242Trying to imagine what this poster looks like and all I can picture is a tranny with clown hair
>>221037139There's a woman on the poster and LOTR has a generic toxic chub group in its fanbase.
>>221037139Its better than The Hobbit movies thats for certain
>>221037352>>221038697Covid really buck broke humanity didn't it?
>>221037516This is fanfiction, anon. Tolkien literally never named the lead character in this movie. It's literally based on bits and pieces referenced in the Indexes.
>>221037242Ur right but the tranime pedos are gonna seethe about it.
>>221038295also, forgot: there's also tonedeafness and awful voice actingDialogue in this scene is:>TARGG: The Watcher in the Water. I never thought I'd live to see such a sight.>HERA: General: Targg. What are you doing here? You were banished.>TARGG; I was dispatched on a mission, but it seems that objective may have changed.>HERA: What the... Dispatched by whom?>TARGG: I serve a new commander. The high lord of the Hill Tribes.>HERA: The wildmen have no high lord>TARG: They do now.>HERA: How dare you. Get your hands off me.But you probably wouldn't have guessed that dialogue from the webm because it is expressionless.
>>221037139Its absolute girl boss dog shit
>>221037139female protag during the woke era. didn't matter if this movie was woke or not, it was flop by association. >>221037242you are wrong and projecting thobeit.
>>221038596>It was basic but not amateurishno it is bad see >>221039067>In LOTR? Even Sauron had more dimensions than Wulf.>What do you mean, her motivation is to save her people, she spends all movie trying to do it That's an external want; where is the internal need that makes her what she is? This is writing 101.>It was a Japanese productionSame way Simpsons is American despite every frame being drawn by Korean animators.
>>221037157fpbp
>>221039105What the fuck is girl boss about it? She barely does anything during the whole movie
>>221037139You're obviously a complete idiot and probably also thought Rings of Power was great.
Focusing the story on the unmarried daughter was actually quite prudent given that all the sons and Helm himself die halfway in and there's no POV left at the fort to see the story through
>>221037190It worked quite well for me!
>>221037139I gotta get around to watching this. Thanks for reminding me.
>>221037139are there blacks in it?
>>221037139I liked it.
>>221038697>Implying that half of anime isn't pedoshit
