Talk:2609: Entwives

This seems like one of the earliest-released comics in recent history Dextrous Fred (talk) 14:00, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

There seemed to be two versions of the title text; on mobile, there is a youtube link visible, but this is not present on my chrome desktop view Dextrous Fred (talk) 14:05, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

The mouseover text in android devices is this youtube link - [[1]] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt2qCjL6-n4 DefectedWBC (talk) 14:18, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Is LotR the lowest scoring major motion picture on the Bechdel test? 172.70.206.95 14:37, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Unlikely, depending on how you define major motion picture.

As pointed out in YouTube’s comment section, the video seems to be a joke, not actually the only female interaction in the films. Chortos-2 (talk) 14:49, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Gender imbalance among readers and viewers of lotr as well. 172.70.230.53 14:51, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

In response to Chortos-2 comment, I would think a slight edit for accuracy along the following lines -- instead of "a video showing" change to "a video that purports to show". As they discuss, the point still stands, but the added accuracy would hurt, would it? 172.70.114.251 15:39, 20 April 2022 (UTC)newbie

I feel like it's weird that nobody's brought up that this is an Ent comic on 4/20. For context, reddit.com/r/trees (the weed subreddit) has an in joke where they call themselves ents, basically. Bazzherb (talk) 15:44, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

So who is the third hobbit supposed to be? --162.158.203.38 15:56, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

With the caveat that (by movie standard reference) the hair colours are inverted — there is one dark-haired hobbit and three light(er)-haired ones — I'd say Pippin - if he's the taller one of the sidekick pair like I think he is, rather than Merry. But I can't guarantee the first two are Frodo and Sam (or which is which is which) because fairer-haired Sam is taller than dark- (and spiky-)haired Frodo in the reference cast photos I've just checked. (The necessary on-film rescaling/standing-in-a-hole of non-midget actors to play hobbits/dwarves might complicate these group tableaus!) Perhaps they are all Hobbits Of Another Story, coincidentally in a fellowship with another generic Human, Dwarf and Elf. Or else drawn more faithfully to the book (which I have yet to check) than the film adaptation? 172.70.85.177 16:30, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Considering Arwens and Ents age, I would actually suspect that yes he totally knows her. -- Hkmaly (talk) 18:19, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
