(Anonymous) 2013-12-11 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)The bulk of the Norse myths were only written down because the Christian author was pissed that English stories/myths were infiltrating Iceland, Tolkien wanted to put a very English spin on the Norse myths... Let's put aside the verrry outdated nationalist and intrinsically racial guff and cast whoever the fuck we want in yet another adaptation of old themes. Skin colour shouldn't matter in telling a good fantasy story, or indeed most stories, in this era.

The thing it all comes down to is that when I read Tolkien, it sounds to me like he's speaking about white people. Could the movies have a few more Maoris in the background without orc costumes? Sure! They probably could!
