It's quite obvious he doesn't care or know much at all. He's scripted to give a positive response and show a mediocre interest in the subject matter he is presenting on his show. He doesn't sound, look or act very enthusiastic at all. He was a lot more vibrant and alive when talking about Putin and the war in Ukraine. He really shone up in that one, as if he was very personally invested in it. Here he is faking it, as with most other things he talks about it.

it's sad, i live in Yakutsk (Russia, Siberia), and when i was a kid in 1990's fantasy become very popular here. It was a whole new genre came from the west. J.R.R.Tolkien, Ursula K.Le Guin, R.E. Howard and many others. I remember how hard was to find all three books of LotR, i found first book in state library it was wooden building with one floor in not very safe neighborhood. And in one day i found out that there is a whole society called "the Tolkienists" in my town, actually it was a bunch of teenagers that admired the universe of Eä. Imagine 20-30 kids meet together in park with wooden swords, shields, bows and arrows, divides in two or three groups (Elves, dwarves, orcs) and just smack each other. Baruk Khazâd! Khazâd ai-mênu! It was fun. And there was a legend about Silmarillion, nobody saw that book but everyone heard about some guy who have it, he was a tolkienist but he grew up and moved in another city.

My 4th grade teacher would read us a chapter of The Hobbit each day after lunch/recess to get us to calm down enough to learn other things. I fell in love... Then, when I couldn't find the trilogy in our tiny school library (our entire school grades 1 - 6 had a total of 32 kids), my 5th grade teacher just happened to have the box set of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Since she didn't care for the genre, she gave them to me. I read them over and over (I especially loved the appendices). Like many, there was no one I could talk to about these stories.

@aichanbainsidhe33 5 років тому
That actually annoyed me, since I grew up adoring those books and Tauriel imo was a fluff character who adds nothing to The Hobbit movies except a spurious love interest. The real story is brilliant without any of that adolescent stereotyped 'sexy elf warrior chick' bs. So yeah, referencing Tauriel as part of Tolkien's Middle Earth pretty much negates being a 'huge fan' of the source material from which she is conspicuously and thankfully absent.

Lily Collins was so wrong about the character Edith inspired. It wasn’t Tauriel from The Hobbit. She wasn’t even in the books, she’s a made up character by Peter Jackson.... In the Silmarrilion, there is a story of a man and a female elf/ Beren and Luthien and those characters were inspired by Tolkien’s love for his wife. There’s a scene where Luthien dances in the wood for Beren which is in reference to when Tolkien’s wife dances for him and I’m glad they added it in this movie.

Biographies are often not approved by the family because the family have a particular understanding of their family member but they also have a bond which impacts the ability to clearly observe that person. I'm not saying they are right or wrong in feeling it was inaccurate, but they would (doing the same) also produce something inaccurate but perhaps in different respects.

The priest forbidding Tolkien from being with Edith reminds me a bit of the story of Beren not being able to take Luthien's hand in marriage until he reclaimed one of the silmarils. And then of course is their headstones of their graves in England. Basically, I think Tolkien wrote a bit of himself into Beren, and Edith in to Luthien. And why not, I think that's lovely thing.

It is so cool that many generations can grow up with the same story. That is quite unique. Me and my brothers have been growing up watching the Lord of the Rings and my mom and her brother also grow up with Lord of the rings, reading the books. It is so cool that Tokiens work is just as famous now as in the beginning. Lord of the rings are always going to be popular. Tolkien is a legend.

just wow, 2 humans who find each other from the beginning and spend their lives together as best friends. SO RARE and I'm so jealous. AND Nicholas Holt was that goofy kid in About a Boy!?!? I didnt make the connection! that ugly duckling turned into an amazing swan, love him in The Great.

Just seen the movie and you can almost see him channeling Hugh Grant in a few parts (the romantic ones of course) and also Stephen Fry. Realising he was the "About a Boy" and it all makes sense.

Well, i always said it wrong, tol-ki-en. Actually i thought Stephan referred to it similarly in earlier shows?
@peterdunlop7691 5 років тому
Yes I say it similarly, Tol-key-en.

Being Dutch, I pronounce the names Heinlein and Tolkien as "HINEline" and "TolKEEN" (as in Dutch the pronunciation of "EI" and "IE" are quite different). But yeah, mispronunciation is so common when only coming into contact when reading stuff, I'm a huge English reader, but some words you hardly ever come across in spoken language. Won't judge anyone for "alternate" pronunciations. I do recall listening to someone (about a more tech subject) and taking a while to figure out what he was talking about (and then it "clicks" and never goes away again).

Let's stop for a minute and appreciate that The Beast wrote a book that was turned into a movie starring Magneto as a wizard.
@seanachiescourt6659 5 років тому
wellp... in slovenia we sort of pronounce it more correctly than native speakers xD but we do a sort of mixture, we start correctly and then just add the wrong ending "tolki - en" if that makes sense

Nicholas was up for the new Batman but I think Robert Pattinson won out, I think Nicholas would be a great Robin to his Batman though. 🤔 not just a cheesy sidekick, but how an actual badass partner should be.

Interesting. I've only ever read his name, and I always read it Tol"keen" myself. I didn't imagine anyone would say it differently.
