This is absolutely the driest humor I have ever come across. Two parts, slightly dated to winter of last year but spot on humor. Don't miss the analysis of the instabilities inherent in The Shire's pipe-weed based economy in Part 1.

] Chomsky: Is there any kind of idea that men should live
] in peace with the Orcs?

] Zinn: Think of the scenes in the prologue with all the
] arrows hitting these thousands of Orcs. We're supposed to
] think that this is a good thing.

] Chomsky: I think this is a tragedy, this story. Because
] it's about two cultures. And poor leadership. It's a
] human tragedy, and an Orcish tragedy.

Satirical "commentary" about the Fellowship of the Ring, from a different perspective on Good and Evil.

In this commentary, Frodo is a Mohammed Atta character being sent on a suicide mission, the elves are militaristic genocide-mongers who are promoting an orc apartheid, the Black Riders are "misunderstood", the orcs are fighting a war of self-defense against the invading Fellowship, and Gandalf is a dictator attempting to control the media . . .

] This takes me back to the media's involvement in all
] this, and the way the media is being controlled by
] Gandalf, such as when he covers Saruman's palantir in
] Orthanc. This is the stone that allows one to see, and
] thus communicate with, different cultures.

Question everything. ;)

] Chomsky: Naturally, it's in Rohan/Gondor's interest to
] keep the Orcs obscured, to make everything as restricted
] and dehumanizing as possible. It's always the first step
] toward genocide. And is this %u2014 is there anything
] less than genocide being advocated in this film?
]
] Zinn: I don't think so.
