  • I recently got to speak with Lee Pace (Thranduil), Evangeline Lilly (Tauriel), and Orlando Bloom (Legolas) for the final chapter in Peter Jackson‘s Hobbit trilogy, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. During this very fun interview they talked about what they would ask J. R. R. Tolkien, what the World Premiere after-party was like, Halt and Catch Fire season 2, and more.
    As most of you know, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies is now in theaters. Unlike the first two installments of The Hobbit, the final chapter is almost non-stop action and features some incredible sequences that fans of The Lord of the Rings will absolutely love. In addition, if you have the chance to see it in 3D, the added ticket price is worth it for this movie. The film stars Martin Freeman, Ian McKellen, Richard Armitage, Evangeline Lilly, Luke Evans, Benedict Cumberbatch, Stephen Fry, Cate Blanchett, Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, Ken Stott, James Nesbitt, and Orlando Bloom.

    Tolkien respected women very much
    In fact he put them up on a pedestal. And that's very clear in the female characters he created. They were noble and courageous with high character and in the case of Galadrial she was not only a great leader and warrior she was a person of great wisdom and spirituality. They were special, stood out in his stories, and were clear points of focus.

      He put them on a pedestal not because he respected them but that was what his ideal women would be like . Like most men of his time and social class , not because he hated women .
      Galadriel and Eowyn are exceptions in that they are more well rounded and fleshed out than other female characters. The rest of them are weak and pretty boring .

    Tolkien was a Beowulf fan and there are a lot of caves in that story. Beowulf slays Grendel's mother in a cave and then he is killed by and kills the dragon for it's hoard in a cave (in the book). Also, there is probably something about a cave as a container of power (personal power and/or wealth) and also secrets - both of which concepts are very key to Kings. Can also think of the cave as a symbol of what is unconscious and b/c kings wield so much power you have to be very careful about triggering their unconscious patterns b/c they can lash out unconsciously with great and destructive power. So, a cave is a channeling of power, secrets, threatening of violence, probably also a sense of hoarding/hiding away/isolation (the isolation of power), and desire to protect oneself within a fortress (in this sense, the cave) - removed from others, a passage to the underworld of what is hidden and unseen (people in power hide a lot of 'stuff'). The cave is a symbol and an archetype. I'm sure Jung would recognize it. ... as for the women issue, he started writing his LOTR-type universe in the trenches of WWI where there weren't many women, but I don't think that fully explains it as the Hobbit was finished in the 30's and the LOTR in 40's (or 50's). So, it's a good question. But the archetype of the time was for men to be the ones out and about soldiering, adventuring. Women were more the guardians of the hearth (Rosey Cotton) but we do see ome conflict there with Eowyn who is relegated to protecting the hearth which she heartily resents, finally disguising herself as a male soldier so as to fight. So, she may be representative of the changing times of the 1940's... a woman trying to break the stereotypes as did numerous women in WWII with Rosey the Riveter (Rosey Cotton?) back on the home front taking the place of men in the factories, female soldiers, etc. Eowyn actually dressed as a man and went to battle. There are numerous tales, legends, and real accounts of that happening that I think Tolkien would have known about (Joan of Arc for one).

    I dont think he hated women he just had an idealstic view of women which he reflected into his female characters who are weak ( as in uninteresting , boring blame and very much an extension of her male lovers arm ) however I view this as him just being a man of his time from Eton . I just thought to myself when coming across a female character in his books as " here we go again , pedestal time " 😁.
    One expectional note is Galadriel who is more fleshed out and not so high on a pedestal and had ambition of her own and had her own personal character .
    Forget Eowyn as well who got fed up of being put on a pedestal . Then again so did Galdriel ....
    Oh and Andreth had a bit more about her ... She's not as well known . She wasn't for sitting on a pedestal ethier ...
    He was however prejuced towards the working class , whom the orcs where based on .

    Does Tolkien hate women? Really? Her character doesn't even exist! She's obviously never read a single Tolkien book. Who does she think Galadriel and Eowyn were? Footnotes? Hello! Eowyn was only the total amazon of the story! Not to mention all of the material that was written in the Silmarillion, Tales, etc. Clueless. She may say she's read this stuff, but obviously didn't retain any of it, or pay attention to it.

    The worst thing about this video was watching a good woman make a good statement, and then immediately being faced with the uncomfortable backlash from her male counterparts, and... then... she apologised. She did not need to apologise for her statement, I also see that Tolkein has zero interest in the existence of women beyond their ability to be 'loving'.

      No, it was not a joke. She has talked about this before in another interview, simply reasoning that times were different, but I can always sense a little, tiny spark of annoyance in her whenever she speaks of this. This debate about Tolkien's female characters is older than this interview anyway. What I wanted to say is that Tolkien wrote women beautifully and he placed them on a different level - pure, brave, untainted and like the rocks that, more or less, managed to steady and balance some of his more, for lack of a better word, unstable male characters. Think Feanor and Nerdanel, or Morwen and Hurin, even Luthien and Beren or Aragorn and Arwen to a degree. That is why this debate makes me sad, because I know how much he valued women and how tenderly he wrote of them, actually idealising them so much that just by reading the books I, as a woman, always feel extremely flattered.
      All I'm saying is that it is much more than what she thinks it is. Also, a joke is never just a joke, it comes from a certain thought process and many times hides truth.
