Tolkien is pretty dark if you think about it. No matter how many victories the good guys have, ultimately evil will win until the end of the world, and Melkor's influence remains even after he's gone. That's pretty depressing to me.

I'd say any series with time travel is dark if you think about it. Take Doctor Who. The Doctor won't be around forever, and it seems like he's the only one protecting the universe. At any time someone can go back in time and destroy history. That's pretty grim to me. I mean, what happens in Turn Left will happen eventually when the Doctor is dead.

Star Wars is kind of depressing now that the Force Awakens exists. All the things won in the OT don't matter. Another empire has risen up to take the place of the old one. That's pretty dark.

I also read somewhere that in TW, at least (if you consider that canonically consistent with DW), it's canon that the afterlife is basically just knowing there's something coming after you, but not what. I'm not sure that's true, I don't remember that being mentioned... if it is, though, talk about grim!

Agreed on TFA essentially making tge original trilogy seem like a false victory. Plus, I don't really trust the writers ofvthe new trilogy to be able to tie the storylines together in a way that gives meaning to the previous movies. I'm fully expecting the new trilogy to end up seeming like the most important story in the series, and ine that could have happened without the prior events of the original films. And that's going to be the worst.

On the other hand, with Dr Who, isn't it basically impossible for there to be a time where the Doctor can't go? So even if he died, a younger version of him would still be around to save the day, theoretically.

Middle-Earth sounds like a setting that even the times of peace seem to suffer from a vague background threat that keeps everyone on edge.
