Well, that's certainly a thing they did.
Mar. 8th, 2022 02:57 am++ Since it was announced that Netflix's Marvel shows will be leaving the service, it has been confirmed that they will be moving to Disney+ later this month. I suspected that would be the case. I still would love to have all those shows on DVD, though.
++ So, the Tolkien Estate just went full-on Sackville-Baggins with their newest updated policies.
On the surface, the requests and demands are utterly ridiculous and it would be impossible to enforce the majority of these considering how much Tolkien's work has been majorly influential worldwide. However, many have shown concern because this is, like, Anne Rice levels of attempting to control/police fans and the transformative works they create, just extended even further to any mention of Tolkien and his work in anything, unless you specifically ask permission from the Tolkien Estate. This isn't about maintaining the integrity of Tolkien's legacy, it's about money and greed and control, nothing more. I don't know what's going to happen, or if anything will come from this. I'm just so flabbergasted by it all, to be honest.
++ In more fun news, The Legend of Vox Machina made it to WatchMojo.com's Top Ten Moments videos. That's when you know you've made it. (Although small mistake as most fans are pointing out: Pike is a cleric, not a paladin.) Either way though, I just think this is so cool and nifty, is all.
