the Tolkien estate get the rights to ALL JRR Tolkien's works back and do what Marvel did. Produce and Make the films themselves with the best interest of the author and reverence to the source material in mind when making them. Jackson obviously does not have the source materials best interest in his heart. Hence all the needless and unnecessary changes to The Hobbit and LOTR. LOTR I was more willing to accept because they at least felt natural in most cases, plus they were done in a realistic style. But with the Hobbit the changes and embelishments just felt cartoonish and really felt like a disservice to the source material.

You are absolutely right. And Bombadil is Maiar. We confirmed it during a long chat.

One person, perhaps. Millions of them. . . another matter. The notion

The millions seem unlikely...

It would seem that some have decided that the perception is not there to be read, and are gping to willfully

Not to annoy me, and not for having a different opinion. Yet, it is one thing to say "I did not perceive the scene thus,"

And yet the joke is on Elrond, for Gandalf was, if we read it that way, clearly a step if not three

There is a hint of humor there isn't there?

It didn't even occur to me that Gandalf seemed somehow inferior to Galadriel

Yet how much of that is because you already knew better, and your foreknowledge informed your perception and interpretation?

The fact is, for at least the next couple decades in all likelyhood, due to the massive popularity of these movies
