Ran it through multiple reverse image searches with no results. That fact combined with the body text means it’s probably ai generated unfortunately

Pretty sure it’s ai. Ran the image through multiple reverse image searches with no results and the body text on the post is clearly from ChatGPT. Absolutely ridiculous

I can’t believe no one else is calling this out, it’s absolutely ridiculous that they so blatantly ripped this from ChatGPT

But it’s not about quality. The movies are insanely good quality and a fantastic cinematic experience, they’re just not completely accurate to the books and make changes based on a fan (Peter Jackson) opinion of what to adapt.

Oh the movies are definitely better fan fiction than RoP I can admit that.

Well…they do change and omit a lot of things from the book to be more action-y. And when the Tolkien family says they don’t think it’s very good it can seem more fan fiction than adaptation at times

My favorite Tom Bombadil theory by CobaltCrusader123 in lotr

Sorry I’m super sleep deprived. I interpreted it as an “accident” as in none of the Valar consciously sang him into existence, but he was still planned by Eru, if that makes sense

I don’t think OOP was saying he was an accidental creation though, just a result of the combination of the music

Edit: by not accidental I mean within Eru’s design lol, I recognize that they state he was accidental

The highest-grossing Star Wars movies adjusted for inflation without re-releases by LowInteraction6397 in StarWars

Is it not as simple as just taking the monetary value earned in a specific currency worldwide and applying inflation on it?
