LotR Summer Pt.2: The Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome of the Elves

Hello beloved listeners, and welcome back to part two of our four part summer series on the Lord of the Rings movies! On this episode, your own personal Snouncil of Elrond discusses the adaptation of the books to film!

They discuss the things they miss, the additions they enjoy, and talk about why somethings work in books but wouldn’t have worked on screen. They also delve into character arcs and why they’re so different for some characters, and ask that you leave Fs in the chat for the characters who were cut. Matty also talks about the blue wizards. You know those guys? They’re only really talked about in The Unfinished Tales, it’s fine.

Part three in this series will be discussing design of all kinds - the group will get into music, costumes, sets, and more! You can also catch more LotR discussion action on both the Sneople twitter (@people_snake) and the Infinity Break twitter (@InfinityBreak23)!
