I do genuinely believe that the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (and arguably the Zelda franchise as a whole, though i myself have played literally none of these games) is closer to fitting the description of ‘Tolkien-esque Fantasy’ than most other movies/shows/games/books etc that claim that label

Like, compare this post by tumblr user wufflesvetinari, which makes an important point about Tolkien’s worldbuilding, and also lives in my head rent free:

and then these quotes from Jacob Geller’s “Every Zelda is the Darkest Zelda”

and his conclusions about the messages in Zelda games are thematically very similar to the through-lines about friendship and love in LOTR, and what a lot of authors miss about what makes a fantasy story personal and memorable:

“A world without joy and humor isn’t a compelling world to fight for” is exactly why there are so many pieces of fantasy media out there that just feel like carbon copies of each other (i’ve seen many posts that explain this better than I can though I can’t find any specific ones at the moment, just know that I didn’t invent this thesis). You’ve got the cool swords, you’ve got the wizards and the spells and the battles, but first and foremost you need the LOVE.

ok so king arthur is welsh & the oldest surviving texts about him are the welsh mabinogi which were written about “a country struggling to retain its independence” and it irks me Magnificently that the english ppl (the exact same ppl who took welsh independence away) claimed arthur as an englishman and a Great Conqueror Of People when in fact the ppl who created arthur most likely held him as a symbol of resistance to Precisely That.

king arthur when he finally wakes up from his ancient slumber and shakes the dirt from his bones and magnificently arises from the ground at glastonbury abbey and realises that people had him buried in engl*nd:
