Lord of the Rings Trilogy is a lot more than what people think. Yes, it is fantasy genre but has some deeper story lines if one looks into it more.
I agree! Ayn Rand not so much lol!
@EricTrommater An Ayn Rand joke...
of course by "social progressives" he actually means Puritanical, religious, holier-than-thou, fascist-minded, for-your-own-good, totalitarian types. So there's that!
@phxbillcee ..... But they wanted women to vote!
@EricTrommater See! Misguided on every level!!! LOL
Actually Tolkien denied any deeper meaning. We found one anyway.
Good one, Eric! I did enjoy "Atlas Shrugged" as a novel when I was 14 or so, but even then picked it apart. I found much more emotional depth in LOTR & it made better movies!
