What the fuck was his problem?
He's right. I know I would.
>>24508652 (OP)There are fauns in Middle-earth btw. A faun is mentioned in Lay of Leithan.
he thought lewis should have been more realistic with danger, maybe give tumnus a realistic background
>>24508652 (OP)They were good friends. It's just bro bantz.
>>24508652 (OP)He also gave Lewis shit for mixing up different foreign mythologies while he did the same.
>>24508652 (OP)Anyone who have the frog poster who was livid that his Greek myth kids' book was called horrific by his dad's publisher friend because it had a "tasteful rape scene?"
>>24508888>Tasteful rapeNo such thing you fucking FREAK. waste of quads.
>>24508900The rape scene in Paul Blart was done very tastefully
>>24510347Or see the art it inspired
>>24510371Or go out into the world and...
>>24510374The world isnโt actually tasteful, if it were then we wouldnโt need a tasteful form of it in poetry and art. A woman fucking a dog is tasteful if Ovid describes it
>>24508888I am struggling to write a tasteful rape scene as we speak.
>>24508677Pretty much.
People take personal letters between friends way too seriously.
>>24510802This topic aside, Tolkien betrayed Lewis despite Lewis being supportive when Tolkien needed him. Tolkien was a little weasel.
>>24510804Lewis married a divorced Jewess. Look at what's happening to Lewis's legacy as compared to Tolkien's. Tolkien's descendants are doing the best they can to protect his legacy and Lewis's has already been sold out once. It's about to become unchristian Netflix slop. Propaganda for a new age.
>>24508652 (OP)"He should've raped her" is not something I expected to see attributed to Tolkien.
I don't see a problem, OP. Satyrs in Greek/Roman myth were fucking horny 24/7 and raped everything that moved.
>>24510381We can make it tasteful...
>>24511184Nobody tell this guy about The Rings of Power
>/lit/ doesn't know the nature of Satyrs
Pseudo-intellectual midwit board of retards
>>24511233Dubs. Thought the same thing.
>>24511233That was done in spite of Christopher Tolkien's efforts to protect the family legacy. They barely had rights to any of Tolkien's work.
Lewis's family sold out the rights to the highest bidder without a second thought.
Why do we have to assume that ALL fauns are rapists? Surely there exists non-rapist fauns as well
>>24511581Agreed. It sounds like a feminist meme that stuck.
#notallfauns
My conclusion is that white people thought mythological creatures and such were real and the satyr was being misrepresented which would be dangerous for any little girls accidentally running into one
>>24511581essentialist mythology
just like goblins are ontologically evil
>>24511609People believed this shit, so that's not totally impossible
If Frodo had really met an elf--that is, a faerie--the result would have been a kidnapping, not a romantic quest.
>>24508652 (OP)Fake quote. Tolkien never said that.
>>24511184>>24511233Both legacies went to shit, what do you mean? LOTR has been jew slop since the first movie
>>24512988Also Arthur Conan Doyle somehow believed this was real.
>>24513604my thirdie grandma still believes in them to this day
>>24512870I hate goblins so much it's unreal
>>24508652 (OP)What was the satyr's tax policy?
>>24510785>I am struggling to write a tasteful rape sceneAt least you're getting into the spirit of it
