    Eh you can apply this argument to a lot of propertys like why do like lotr it’s just fantasy shlop why do you enjoy kill la kill it’s just anime shlop why do you enjoy saving private Ryan it’s just history shlop the point of good fiction is that it brings you to a different reality but because our reality has rules and logic most people enjoy fantasy that also has rules and logic and it’s believable as a alternative reality just because you don’t find a fantasy interesting doesn’t give you the high ground to call people who enjoy the fiction you don’t like

      I still haven’t forgiven Peter Jackson for doing Bombadill dirty like that.

      Also the scourging of the shire.
