I woke up like this

Mr. Sunshine posted:

I read Silmarillion back in my book-devouring teens. Only thing I remember is this Morgoth dude being a bit of a tosser, and a giant spider eating the magic crystals.

I tried to ignore this but I can’t. Morgoth apologizer has logged in. He was literally created because Eru (god? not even tolkien is sure) had a Bad Thought and poof, he created Morgoth (aka Melkor aka the og Annatar aka 600 other names depending on who’s mad at him at the time). He then gets poo poo on by everyone because “he’s mean!” even though he was.... created to be mean... by his dad Eru who is also god. It’s like making a man-hating robot and then being assmad that it killed you.

Also he takes like a huge depression nap halfway through the Silm and wakes up when Fingolfin (aka Nolofinwë aka the Sad Brother of Fëanor and current king of the Noldor for the moment after Fëanor literally got so mad about dying that he spontaneously combusted) banged on his front door and called him a bitch.

Then Tolks had to nerf him so he got his feet cut off and chucked into the Void. Don’t worry, he gets out.

Tolkien didn't want Galadriel's good name and better hair tainted by the Kinslaying, so rather than come over with the other Noldor she waited a while and picked up a rough Telerin boytoy who had his own boat. That elf was Teleporno. Peter Jackson was a coward and only used his more modern name, Celeborn.

That sounds totally reasonable.

You should not be surprised that the robot killed you, but you can be mad.

Ok, that makes sense. Now could you re-write it using words like "ere" and "dwelt" and "wrought" so it sounds more Tolkien-y?

Did anyone try to read The Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling? I think I managed my way all the way through as a teen but didn't understand a word of it. Except that the villains were anarchists who wanted to make everyone equal or something.

I did, and you understood more than me. Early William Gibson can find like a series of impressionistic sketches hung around a bare narrative to me. I'm not complaining, they're very interesting and evocative sketches, but I dont entirely "get" that book or Neuromancer.

Not entirely defending Gibson here, but since everything he writes is in first person or a very limited 3rd person view, I think it's very much by design that it's difficult to piece together the overall picture at times. Most of his plots have individuals trying to make their way through while at the mercy of much larger forces. It fits.

I woke up like this

In one of the HoME books there’s a story about Melkor dressing up all nice and putting gems in his hair to go hang out with humans like “what’s up my name is Annatar and I’m completely trustworthy y’all want some gifts?”

Then the role went to Sauron/Mairon because Tolkien. Also I guess it made more sense considering the whole Annatar + Tyelperinquar = That Whole Ring Disaster thing. Point is, he was Annatar once and if you mash the timelines together he would have been Annatar before Sauron was.

tl;dr: I read these books a lot, missed the point of all of them, and think Melkor is the best. See icon.
