My favourite quote ,“We've got uteruses and back in the day there was a real sort of magic and sacredness and sort of brutality around that," Malcolm said. “

@jegga I heard Malcolm say this on the Radio.
It makes a lot of sense for her to be involved in pre-production planning actually as she obviously lives in a fantasy world.

Rule 1: If you are going to spend a billion bucks then make sure you give your audience what they want. It's a lot of money to gamble on your audience being OK with you tampering with source material they are heavily invested in.

A part of me wants the wokeness now. Do it, bring on female Gandalf, demi-sexual Aragorn and lets get some asian Frodo & muslim Sam gratuitous on screen sodomy Netflix style. Lets make Sauran an old white man in a suit with a swastika patch and have trans Gimli with a multicoloured beard shack up with black non-binary legolas.
Burn. It. All. Down...and hope sanity can come back from the ashes.

But it wouldn't make any difference. The show would lose a bundle but the woke would consider that a price well worth paying. Especially since it wouldn't be themselves paying it.

FRACK.RIGHT.OFF.
Gandalf the Grey is a dude, you have the books to work from, fracking use them, dont make up BS to appease fracking numpties who wont watch the fracking thing anyway, or if you want them to watch, make your own fracking series with a fracking trans, one armed, one eyed, vegan Wizard/Witch/Warlock rather than frack with a story that people love because of its characters they know already, not new fracking shit house fracking ones.

Ripley with Richard
Earl Brockovich
Jo with Joe in Little MenThink of the fun Romeo and Jules could get up to.....
and of course Outrageous Fortune could only be improved with Errol West as the lead

I feel like this is possibly a subtle dig at all the England "fans" they've used that are clearly Welsh, Scottish, etc. Please be that.

@jegga I feel so much stupider having read that. NZ is a backdrop, it's not 'NZ' so it makes no sense whatsoever to have a kuia with moko. If RM is so desperate to see more of this on screen, she could of course get together with some of her creative pals and develop a script of some Maori myths and legends, or books written by Maori authors. On a side note, there are plenty of fantasy series with witches and wise women and female warriors etc. Again, why not push for that being made instead of fucking with Tolkein. On a second side note, several of the comments said this series is set before the time of the wizards, so 'Gandalf' isn't even in it.

Yeah but what about the brutality of the uterus?
I have a suggestion for the next step of her white saviour complex. Should do wonders for her acting career too.
