I feel like a few years ago, "you are just insane" would work. In this post-factual period though, there is too many "just insane" people. I remember when disinformation was mostly harmless on the greater scale. It's not the case now.
Antiquary feels... weird? I don't get the card connection. Also the theme in the trailer looked a bit out of place to me and kinda hoped it was engi, not thief :D
Loving the Troubadour name though. Leaves Minstrel to be a joke it was and is more unique than a simple Bard.
Evoker is just right. Nothing too special, but also not weird. Spec looks cool as well
As for Hobbit, the Maple films edit made it quite ok and cuts most of the questionable stuff. Still too much Alfrid though. I hated Alfrid more than the love triangle if you'd believe it.
Ypu mean the Nazgul on their dragons would just shrug? I'd imagine they have balistas or other warmachines that could make the traveling above Mordor uncomfortable.
Sauron never thought they would want to destroy it. If they did the most obvious beeline towards Mt. Doom, he would realize this and would make it impossible.
There certainly are things I liked better in the books, I remember that much. But when judging entirety of books vs entirety of movies movies were better in my opinion.
Eh. It is a popular meme but I think even with the info the movie gives it is pretty clear why. They need to go in secret and Sauron and Saruman have spies/scouts about (like the Sarumans birds).
And even if they flew to near Mordor undetected, the giant freaking Eye would spot them - if the patroling Nazgul wouldn't spot them first.
I watched and loved the movies before reading the books so my opinion may be biased, but I think Lord of the Rings movies were more enjoyable than books.
I see how the books were great in their time and the worldbuilding of the books is amazing - but the movies do great job at streamlining the story and making it fun.
