Re: Worst character interpretation you've ever seen?

[(Anonymous)]

Then I think you're failing to grasp the nuances of their characters. If you've only seen the movie versions, then that's sort of understandable because they were definitely more villainous and less subtle. But that's not book canon. Even in the films, you can pick up on the concept that while they both did despicable things, it's simplifying who they are to label them as "evil". I think that's the point Tolkien was trying to make, that people are capable of evil acts for reasons other than just reveling in evil.

So what would be wrong with writing them as irredeemable assholes, since that's what they are in the movies? They are two separate canons, and at very least, in the movies, they are pretty much villains.

DA

Well, that's up for debate if they're irredeemable assholes in the movie; I didn't see it that way and I know many others who feel the same way. And there's nothing wrong with writing them that way but it's still bad characterization. They're not villains. They're antagonists.

You seem weirdly defensive about this.
