Take the Black: Why we’re exhausted by The Lord of the Rings
By Dan Selcke
Do we need more Lord of the Rings movies? Probably not, but they’re coming. On a new episode of Take the Black, we tell Warner Bros. how to do it right.
In the past week, The Mandalorian returned after a long break, The Last of Us continued to roll over our hears, and we learned that Warner Bros. Discovery intends to make new Lord of the Rings movies. We talk about all that and more on the latest episode of Take the Black. Watch below!
If anyone out there is excited over the prospect of new Lord of the Rings movies, I hope our pessimism didn’t bring you down too much. We’re too jaded to get hype without seeing some proof that it isn’t a lazy cash grab!
Beyond that, our talk about the latest episode of The Last of Us yielded some interesting discussion of pop culture discourse, dog whistles, and homophobia. We are now a politics podcast.
