What if you think about it the other way around?

The predecessors’ evaluations have been very pertinent and appropriate, the temptation of the Lord of the Rings, the weakness of human nature, survival or death, courage and strength, courage...many factors can be written very long and very long. I think what if I think about it the other way around?
——If the Dark Demon Army finally wins, if Frodo puts on the Lord of the Rings, if humanity finally splits, if...
the ending of the movie is beautiful, blue sky, green ground, and a blue sea outside the small house The blue sky and early sun. But are these things that we humans think of as true, good and beautiful, exactly what the dark side hates? Human beings have created a world that they believe to be beautiful according to their own will and will not hesitate to defend it with their lives. In the end, everything ends in success. Yes, all the audiences are excited and excited for this success.

We use our own will to control the material world, while the other party also uses their will to try to transform the world. The value systems of the two forces are completely different, and the profound contradiction has triggered a desperate struggle. This is the fundamental contradiction of this ten-hour story. I know that all the audience will put themselves on the side of Gandalf, the prince, and the elves unconsciously, and then worry about them and applaud them. Have you ever tried the other way around, letting go of your aesthetic prejudice for the time being, trying to sympathize with a certain orc who died under a human sword, I know they look ugly and despicable, far less handsome than the elven prince, unconsciously we will return to the original In the role camp. . . .

This world is objective, no matter who changes it is a process in time. Whether humans turn it into a blue sea and blue sky, or the orcs turn it into a sea of ​​hell and fire. In fact, they have been in an established value system since their birth. So the so-called struggle is the ultimate contest of strength, and the order of the world is always arranged by the strong.

I imagine that if we humans evolve and accidentally become the images of undead and orcs in the film. Will PJ’s Lord of the Rings be like this: Gandalf appears ferociously in front of the brave orc infantry, weak humans are struggling to death, and the great Sauron commands the righteous army to fight heroically for the liberation of the world. Of course, there are some characters, such as how a certain orc rushes forward bravely, in order to survive contains courage and fearlessness. . . .

The creation of history is objective, and our existence in this era has made us inevitably in the human camp. Survival or death is a problem for everyone, not just people, whether righteous or evil, good or evil. Either assimilating others or being assimilated by others. Therefore, in order to defend our existing value system, in order to defend our beliefs, FIGHT!
