ranking hobbit media by how sexy thranduil is okay go
first up we have 1977 rankin bass thran. and what a fucking mess he is.
they made him bald??? why?? he’s an elf where are the beautiful locks?? you can’t tell me that smidgen of hair on the side is beautiful elf locks. also that hunched posture is terrible for his back. 0/10
2003 Hobbit Game
okay this one earns some points for nostalgia but he is so fucking polygonal. that gamecube crust just DESTROYS the quality of his... everything. he does look a bit better in the cutscenes tho
kind of a serve. 5/10
The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II (2006)
cant even find any good images of him from this game. he looks okay? ive never played it. 3/10
2012-2014 Peter Jackson Hobbit movies
okay this is where we peaked as a sexy thranduil society. lee pace thranduil is amazing and his absolutely fucked characterization can be overlooked cuz the aesthetics are literally peak ✨✨✨✨✨ Perfect In Every Way 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Hobbit LEGO game (2014)
not really sure how to rank this on the sexy scale considering he’s a LEGO but he’s still based on the lee pace thran so that gives him some points. the best part of this game was smashing shit as sauron after beating it. 7/10
lord of the rings online (LOTRO) (idk when they added him, it looks like 2018 but i have no clue if that’s really true)
The combat in this game is fun but why are half of the quests to fetch animal hides? anyway this thran looks weird, like an older white guy who doesn’t believe in tipping servers. 3/10
finally the new gollum game (2023)
he just looks off? the crown is cool but there’s just TOO much happening with this design. also the game sucks shit. 4/10
and that’s it. they should put more thranduils in media so i can rate them.

Thinking about the way noir and Hobie were most likely treated because of how they look and being severely underestimated because of it.
Hobie looks and acts like a punk. He is just unserious enough to not be taken seriously. The dude is smart enough to recreate a dimension jumping watch from scraps, that people WATCH him steal and go “ugh sorry about that, he’s always like that”. And they treat him like an instigative child. Meanwhile this man is staging an interdimensional coup and is essentially a rebel freedom fighter in his own world. He is incredibly strategic and a genius while also being kind and sticking to his guns. And as a reminder, without knowing Miles or how his powers worked for even two minutes he was able to accurately help him improve his abilities! Man is observant and a quick thinker! But he’s quiet about it!
Noir dresses and sounds like an ‘oldtimer’ bc he’s from the 1930s. People probably went “ah yes grandpa” with the assumption of a mild mannered, old, and jaded private eye. Probably thought of as behind the times and not as intelligent because of lack of experience with technology. But overall first impression was of a sensible hardworking guy, and at worst melodramatic. In reality, dude is more than mildly neurotic, has severe anger issues, and prone to getting into fights. A raised socialist activist, who has very little to lose, and has canonically burned down the Statue of Liberty, shockingly he is a bit of a wildcard. And more than likely got kicked off/quit the ‘elite strike force’ for those reasons. But he’s also resourceful, smart, and quick to adapt.
Both of these characters are going to be a force to be reckoned with when they get together. Very much house on fire that burns down the entire neighborhood type relationship. I’m very excited.

I’ll always mourn the fact that we never got to see Aziraphale roast a televangelist live on television in the tv series because that would have been beautiful.

Are Izzy and Owen still together in ur au? Idk if u have already been asked something like this but, yeah, just curious 🤷♀️
I mean, technically from a living standpoint yes, they ended up reconnecting not too long after Total Drama following an incident involving a taco truck and a pack of stray dogs (don't ask), and that led to them living with each other in the same apartment. I guess they'd consider themselves close, but it keeps flipping between being platonic and romantic, think back to what they had in season 1
fun fact: im pretty sure Ozzy was the first Total Drama ship I was ever interested in as a kid, good to know that didn't change
