Oh yeah don’t get me wrong, as long as they don’t fuck with established events I’m not mad about this movie existing. It just doesn’t appeal to me at all. The only lotr movies I really want are ones based on the Silmarillion stories, and sadly I suspect we’ll have to wait another 20 years(or more, if the copyright considers Tolkiens son the author) for it to enter public domain before that happens.
Yep. A third party candidate hasn’t gotten a single electoral college vote since George Wallace, and the only time a third party has done better than either a Democrat or a Republican was with Theodore Roosevelt and his Bull Moose party, which crushed Taft but got absolutely obliterated in turn by Wilson due to the spoiler effect.
