Lord of the Rings: War of the RoHERrim. One Girl Boss to Rule Them All. I was really looking forward to this, turns out it's nothing but a rights retaining disappointment.

The girlbossing is just a symptom. Look at the synopsis that describes Hera as "leading a resistance." Rohan is not "the resistance." They are the power in the land backed by the world's mightiest nation. If anything, the Dunlandings are the resistance/uprising. But modern writers cannot fathom that. It is actually inconceivable for them to make a story where the good people in charge have to fight someone not in power trying to overthrow them. The protagonist MUST be framed as the oppressed party, even when that makes no sense.

The arrogance of these people who try and be better then Tolkien by pretending their own made up stories somehow fit in his legendarium is awe inspiring in its scope.

It's kind of crazy how they never did anything with LotR after the Jackson trilogy.

"Kings built tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons. Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry or in high cold towers asking questions of the stars. And so the kingdom of Gondor sank into ruin, the line of kings failed, the white tree withered and the rule of Gondor was given over to lesser men." - Return of the King, J.R.R Tolkien

Everyone: "Why would they put a redhead girl named HERA as the main character?" Me looking at the screenwriter, a redhead girl with Greek name: "Who knows..."
