Tolkien and Lewis should have taken a chill pill.
I enjoy Tolkien over Disney any day because I don't even view them in the same league.
Disney took ancient mythology and did with it what could be compared to the simplified version of Hawkings book "A Briefer History of Time".
In the case of dwarves I feel that it doesn't change anything if you bastardize something that is already based on mythology.
If anything this to me new revelation about Tolkien is a negative rather than a positive. Not that I care enough to make it that but I just don't think they should have had such strong opinions on Disney's work when they were themselves fully capable of creating amazing works of fiction.
This truly does seem like Oxford dons thumbing their noses at an American.
