Tolkien rolling in his grave could be used as a new type of green energy
I wish I could give this an award
Not green energy, Tolk-EEN energy!
Comment of the week. Good one.
Best. Comment. Ever!
ah man no comments has made he laugh out quite loudly as this one in a long long time
good one sir
You ever notice how these networks renew shows that nobody liked, while cancelling shows people do like?
It’s actually kind of painful how true this is
Edit: Dayum, 1k likes on a *Reply?!*
That’s like, more than all of my actual comments, thanks guys 👍
funny how that is
They already spent a billion on this show - of course they're going to make more than one season
I’ve never seen a group that hates their audience more than woke leftist writers. In the last ten years, there’s only been one successful woke movie, and half the audience was only there because it was a date (Barbie).
Because it's about
THE MESSAGE
All i heard in response to "do you know why ships float and stones do not" was John Cleese saying "b-because they're...made of...wood?"
Lmao same here. God that scene was gold.
She turned me into a newt!
@@missingnola3823 A newt?

I bet Rings of Power is the sole reason Amazon started putting commercials in their movies and tv shows. They are subsidizing their failures.
+Wheel of Time disaster
I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks this
I thought the same thing!
Bezos said that if RoP didn't succeed, it would be the end of their attempts at big productions. They're fighting tooth and nail to not admit defeat.
Rings of power was an international success. It’s one of the main reasons why amazon is still in business.
Somehow the Rings of Power returned
Amazon's attempt on LotR has left me scarred....and deformed.

The evil endured.
I hope Henry Cavill knows how much mileage we as a society are getting out of his delivery of the word "fuck"
I'm his neighbour, I'll ask him.
especially with the collapse of GW and 40k, since it started with his favorite faction. I hope he also gets as much out of it as the rest of us.
@@Elden_LeanI'll give 40k a shot, but I'm fully expecting GW will 'Witcher' him.
@zoopdterdoobdter5743 nah, it's very widely known why he's left the amazon show, he's most likely not doing anything 40k related as long as GW is tied to it.Whereas the woke mob making the witcher lied for months before the truth came out as to why he was no longer part of it
he's probably watching youtube channels like this one on regular basis, just because he is the ultimate nerd
Cate Blanchett's performance really portrays the majesty of Galadriel.
Cate Blanchett is a goddess.
Honestly, making her majestic is kind of a misstep. Galadriel is supposed to be "amazonian", proud, a bit power hungry and cunning. Making her regal, wise and kind (and not 6 and a half feet tall) is kind of against how she is supposed to be.
@@ALookIntoTheEulenspiegelthe majestic vibe comes by virtue of her being an elf. And she was in fact quite wise, on occasion her perceptiveness outdid even some of the Valar. To whittle her down to *merely* a warrior and schemer is forgetting the entire rest of her
@@williamkrause5831 Sure, those weren't her only traits, but they were her defining traits. Her name literally means "Man Woman". Portraying her as this kind, wise and exceptionally feminine woman doesn't really match how she is described. She was not "merely" a warrior and schemer, but she was those things and she was them a lot. They should be present in her portrayal.
@@ALookIntoTheEulenspiegel you know how I can tell you’re either pushing an agenda or regurgitating information you don’t actually know? Because Galadriel has several names, and neither Galadriel nor Artanis (the name she most commonly went by in Valinor) means “Man-Maiden.” You are referring to her mother name Nerwen, which meant not just the physical strength of man, but of body and will as well. Artanis means “Noble woman,” and Galadriel means “maiden crowned with light,” so going by the very same etymological conventions you used to lend credence to your point, the wise and exalted lady of light and majesty is definitely a more dominant aspect of her, especially in the third age where she outright goes by the name Galadriel. She is among the last of the Noldor left in Middle Earth that saw the light of the two trees, and she learned magic from Melian in Doriath on top of everything she learned while in Valinor, of _course_ she’d be bathed in resplendent light and grace that awes.
And the movies do an ample job of showing her amazonian and ambitious side anyways in a very subtle show don’t tell way, just by her countenance and the fact she felt the pull to use the one ring. She was wise enough to resist it of course, but the fact she felt the desire where characters like the hobbits don’t says a lot. Even Boromir wasn’t as sharply affected by that desire that quickly, his corruption came slower but he was not as wise as she. To tolkien, wisdom and willpower are just as great in terms of strength as brawn and talent, sometimes even more so. Galadriel isn’t inherently feminine just because she’s wise and surrounded by light and grace, just as Olorin wasn’t feminine for his resilience and compassion.
The reason a stone sinks and boat floats is obviously due to the boat being made of wood, just the same as witches.
She turned me into a Newt!
@@ChristopherGoggans You obviously got better.
"We have an all-female director staff this season."
"How does that help us?"
"Now when they tell us it sucks, we can just say they're sexist."
Yup the Witcher is doing that so why not
"We have an all-female director staff this season."
"How does that help us make movies?"
"Movies?"
Sad part is, it's not even a joke, it's a tactic that legit works.
Uh-oh, their cunning plan has been uncovered!
This is the most racist show on tv. It's black people cultural appropriation of white fiction literature. If we did this to black literature people would be calling it out for what it is racist as fuck.
Galadriel: "There is an Imposter Among Us."
Sauron with a blonde wig and pointy ears: "Oh no, what shall we do about it?"
Would’ve rather had Sylvester Stallone in a blonde wig than this terrible Galadriel.😂🤣
"How do you do, fellow elves?"
Galadriel: "There is an Imposter Among Us."
It's called 'The Rings of Power'
*Sauron hiding behind a newspaper with eye holes cut out. Amazon VFX team win again!
He might as well have a mustache to twirl 😂
*My favorite scene was when Galadriel withstood the male gaze of a goblin*
"Do you know why a ship floats, and a stone cannot?" asked Finrod.
"Because a ship is less dense than water and a stone is not?" Galadriel ventured.
"Uhh... I... I didn't mean literally," Finrod stammered, clearly floundering for a more profound answer.
Galadriel tilted her head quizzically. "Then no... I don't know."
"Well, you see," Finrod continued, trying to recover, "a ship floats because it seeks the light, whereas a stone sinks because it embraces the darkness."
Galadriel's brow furrowed. "Seeks the light? How can a ship seek anything?"
"No, no, it's like... the ship's heart is lifted by hope, while the stone... um... is weighed down by despair," Finrod said, desperately trying to salvage the metaphor.
"A ship has a heart? And a stone feels despair?" Galadriel asked, her confusion deepening.
"Not literally! It's a metaphor!" Finrod exclaimed, feeling the conversation veering off course. "It's about the spirit of the ship versus the stone."
Galadriel blinked, still trying to follow. "How do a heap of wood and a rock have spirits? Aren't they just being tossed around by physics?"
"It's a metaphor! Why is this so hard for you to grasp?" Finrod snapped, frustration creeping into his voice. "The ship represents aspiration and the stone represents stagnation!"
Galadriel blinked again. "Ahh... uhhh... okay."
Finrod's eyes narrowed. "You don't actually understand, do you?"
Galadriel sighed. "Well... probably not. I mean, I understand the idea that a ship 'seeks' light and a stone 'seeks' darkness if I try to imagine them as characters or something... and I guess I'd rather be the ship in that case. So the moral is that I should... ummm... seek light instead of darkness? Or something?"
An awkward silence hung between them as Finrod realized his metaphor had conveyed nothing of value. He shifted uncomfortably, searching for something to say.
"Yes," he muttered finally. "Seek light instead of darkness. Exactly."
Galadriel nodded slowly. "Right. Got it."
I'd rather have seen Galadriel start taking Finrod to school on the physics of buoyancy and water displacement. He's actually insulting all maritime engineering knowledge by making this metaphor.
"This rock..will be a tree...?"
Stones are bad? But what about the Silmarils, the stones of light so incredible that they were literally the focal point for the biggest conflict ever to scar Middle-Earth? How about the Dwarves, carved from stone by their creator, who embrace the dark and deep places of Middle-Earth, but who cannot be said to be "evil" or "seekers of darkness"?
Oh my goodness, I forgot that nuance isn't a thing modern audiences want anymore.
@@rhettorical
Writers don’t understand nuance either. Or know history or culture because they don’t read anything.
Still better writing that the actual show
One wig to rule them all.

Take my angry upvote. 🤣
“NO HATE-WATCHING!
NO. FUCKING. HATE-WATCHING!!!”
There are other ways to hate watch...ways some would consider...unnatural....
It's fine to hate-watch as long it isn't on Prime
R A R B G
Option 1: Yyyarrr, me hearties...
Option 2: Just watch the Drinker, Mauler, Little Platoon, et al...
People shout this like it's some religious screed, because they somehow convinced themselves of the idiotic notion that hatewatching would help a bad show succeed.
I think it's because these people are helpless consoomers who have no clue that you can watch something without having to use the official channels to gain access to it.
“Do you know what the difference is between a rock and a ship?” - can’t wait for more Oscar worthy dialogue.
Ah, the modern entertainment industry. Where all 'creativity' is derived from checkboxes, percentages, value propositions, brand equity, quotas and focus groups. Truly inspired artistic enterprises.
Everyone to Hobbit Movie Trilogy: "Perhaps we treated you too harshly."
The Hobbit Trilogy had some good parts. (Bilbo, Oakenshield 💛, Thranduil 💛, Smaug, the OST)
I remember even nerdrotic even says their his guilty pleasure and he'll watch them
They dam sure have issues but like SW 1-3 I'll still put them on and enjoy sections of them. No one can debate that Smaug looked god dam awesome
Rewatched it but no, the second and third film have not gotten better. First one is ok.
Nah, they were always good.
Smug was great villain in Hobbit as a dragon you may sympathic with him but they still showed how evil he is
Sauron: *puts on wig*
Galadriel: HE'S SAURON!
Sauron: *takes off wig*
Galadriel: "Must've been the wind."
Elrond: "Sauron, how can you do these things?"
Sauron: "Nanomachines, son."
Wigs of Power

When will you wear wigs?
So, Sauron is Hannah Montana all along?
A few nights ago I watched LOTR, Fellowship of the Ring, which I hadn't seen for a while. I noticed how effortlessly beautiful all the scenes are. You watch Dune (Or any Denis Villeneuve film) and it has amazing scenes, but it's like they're trying so hard to make it beautiful, which makes it end up looking like a fashion shoot. LOTR, however, seems organic, like they made a movie and the scenes just happened to be beautiful
I don't think Dune delivered as much as it promised. The book either. I'll just go to Samurai land for Samurai stuff TYVM. And they're doubling and tripling down on it like Avatar?? Which also didn't deliver except visually. IMHO
It's because the LotR trilogy is made using mostly practical effects wherever possible, with some notable exceptions. Combine that with good cinematography and you get movies that look real and don't age much. CGI is great for doing things that otherwise can't be done practically, but if you use it as a crutch, you either get movies that look like shit, or movies that look passable for a few years but then start to look like shit as better technology highlights their flaws by comparison.
@@malcolmapplet4313I haven't read the books but I thought the movie just sucked. I kept waiting for it to start.
@@Calaxt01 it is the source material. Read the books years before seeing any film.. it actually sucks as a story and is very forgettable. Never believe the hype. It is not nearly good as some would make you believe. World-building does not imply good storytelling.
@@takuid It's a perfectly serviceable story, not bad at all, but certainly not a must-read and definitely not the masterpiece people seem to want to think it is. My favorite adaptation of it was a little film made in the late '70s by some guy named George Lucas.
I got goosebumps when Galadriel uttered "Set phasors to full!"
😂😂😂😂
And then took the petrification orb meant for Twilight Sparkle.
The numernorians saying elves took our jobs was and still is one of the dumbest epic scenes in history!
what about the sea always being right
Part 2: Euphoria
ruclips.net/video/zPGcrb5_ZXc/видео.html
@@TheMonkeygoneapeit doesn't make sense though... The sea allowed the elves to safely cross over a sort of aquatic open border wherein the elves stole Numenorian jobs which was VERY wrong of the sea. How do they justify the two without cognitive dissonance?
@@daviddiggens8841 that damn crooked Ulmo! Manwue needs to put him in jail!
In the actual story, the Elves completely turned away from Numenor after they became very prideful. Things could have turned out better if they aided the last real, legitimate king, who went back to the old ways.
“The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot create, not real things of its own."
-J.R.R. Tolkien
Support independent creators.
Giving license to make anything LOTR related to Jeff Bezos would be like giving the ring to Sauron for safekeeping.
The Shadow that sewed them can only make wigs, it cannot have luxurious braids, not real locks of hair of its own.
maybe Sauron was the friends we made along the way
@@GBDupree "When will you wear wigs?" --Dom
4.24 I was thinking "Ok, GaLADriel!" but then Drinker just nailed it.
4:49 - "How do you explode out of a stationary wagon like this?"
Black elves happen to be exceptionally good jumpers, Drinker.
Are you saying ... "White Elves Can't Jump"?
How are you going to infiltrate the elves this time Sauron?
Sauron: “think I’ll just wig it”
Ok, this one wins the comment section in my opinion
😂😂😂
I wig this.
When he left his parting words : "Hair today, gone tomorrow "
I got chills when Sauron screamed “for the patriarchy!!!” before getting girl-bossed into submission
Sauron lost interest in dominating the free people of middle earth when he realised it wasn't just about horses.
My favorite part was Eowyn was like "I am no man" And the Witch-king was like "Yes you are. You have a penis. You have no eggs." And Eowyn was like "Oh" and then he chopped her head off.
Into being submissive and agreeable?
Tolkien: "look at how they massacred my boy"
I was introduced to Tolkien when I was twelve. I read LOTR from Bag End to Mordor. Nine hundred odd pages of magic. Peter Jackson bought the stories to the big screen. His previous movies didn't impress me but he stepped up to the Tolkien challenge by creating a cinematic masterpiece. I could only endure episode one of the Ringworm of Plague and l wanted to go Sauron on Amazon / Prime. Now they’re making season Two. May Gandalf help us all.
All I can say is:
Rest in peace Bernard Hill, one of the few actors willing to speak out against Amazon and their garbage show. You will be missed.
What did he say? I missed that piece of news
@@MatheusHenrick-uv9gt He refused to watch it and he found it to be just a money-making venture.

How do you wake up and be like... "You know who I can be a better writer than...Tolkien". The f*cking nerve.
Sheer fucking hubris.
"I understood that reference."
If anything, people should start looking into independent creators. Some of them craft MUCH better work on their own than all of the million dollar budgets of corporate crony phonies.

I met a purple haired girl at a party and she said she loves Rings of Power and I walked away from her 🥴
I’d laugh and then walk. But wise choice. :)
Best decision ever…
What makes me laugh is that these people who constantly dye their hair zany colours are actually damaging their scalps due to the harsh chemicals, so they end up prematurely balding later on in life

That would've probably been an improvement.
That would explain the sand shortage of Mordor.
"They're slaughtering the i.p.'s, they're slaughtering them all! And not just the comics, but the starwars and Tolkien too"
You reminded me the Rings of Power existed.
Then the memories came back of all the laughter I had at the shows expense during a workplace injury recovery that kept me at home.
Thanks, Will.
Memberberries should never be abused in such egregious ways.
I swear Rings of Power was made by people who hated Tolkien (a conservative white devout Catholic) and wanted to smash his legacy into the dust.
Regrettably, you can include Tolkien's traitorous grandson in that group.
Yes. Kathleen Kennedy was unavailable as she is busy destroying another IP.
That's wokeness in a nutshell.
That's exactly what happened. Especially that Tolkien "scholar" they got to after firing Tom Shippey.
Well, actually it is. The grandson is so envious of JRR's talent, and his own utter lack of, that he has done everything to crap all over it with every opportunity. After his son who respected the story and didn't trust others to not screw it up died that was the end of it.

One does not simply woke into Mordor. Not with one billion dollars can you do this. It is folly.
🤣
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. One walks into Mordor with a billion dollars to burn it there!"
Perfecto. *chef’s kiss*
Fuck that word.
One does not simply throw a billion dollars into the fires of mount doom
The best part about the Sauron "reveal" was that it was already obvious before the first episode even aired, because the actor playing him was the only person in the entire show with the slightest hint of masculinity, so he had to be the bad guy. That is the level at which these people operate.
Which is ironic. Because he took a fair form.
Now that you mention it... I cannot recall when was the last time I've heard the word "masculinity" without it having a negative connotation. Hell, I cannot recall when was the last time I've heard it without the adjective "toxic" before it...
Before reading your comment, I guess the last time I had heard this word not being used in a negative way so many years ago I've completely forgotten it.
Agreed. I called it in the first five minutes and made about $50 off my friends in bets. I called it cause he was a white, attractive, intelligent male that was portrayed as being Galadriel’s equal. Yeah, knowing these writers, he’s Sauron lmao
@@genghiskhan6688 soo true. I've put on weight in recent years and decided to look around for a decent reviewed gym. Within hours of saying this, i had people i respect saying i was showing "far right, toxic masculinity vibes" for wanting to go to the gym.
I think the only person whose not said it negatively was Drew McIntyre in his recent Masculinity 3 part show, where he tells guys its good to work out and be strong and have a drink away from women.
I dunno man, I though Guyladriel was plenty masculine, and toxically so, in season one.
0:42 Easy; My favorite part was the galadriel prison "breakout" scene...
My girlfriend is somewhat feminist, not a big tolkien nerd and talked me into giving Rings of Power a go. And being scientifically minded, I tried my best not to shit on it too hard just to see how she - the supposed core audience - would like it. We managed two and a half episodes before even she was so fed up with "Galadriels" vapid girlboss antics and the general nonsense that we dropped it.
It's pretty mad how so much money can be greenlit based on the ramblings of a tiny vocal minority, despite the continued financial failures
My favourite part of Rings of Power was never watching it and revisiting LOTR, movies AND books.
👍
Don't forget The Hobbit trilogy it had a few issues but in comparison to this it now looks like a masterpiece
@@guffmam6995 It has more than a few issues. I’ll never watch Rings of Power to compare but it’ll never make The Hobbit look any better than it does.
I just got a months free amazon prime to watch clarksons farm, thinking about watching ROP season 1 for a laugh.
@@chatteyj
I wouldn't, even just to shit all over it, they'll count it as people who like the show.
My mom was born in 1959 and has read the original trilogy books dozens of times. She took me to see all the movies when they were coming out. I asked her last year if she was going to check this show out and she explained to me why the show shouldnt exist at all for about fifteen minutes. Safe to say, I'm on her side.
Your mom is awesome
Your mom is a wise woman.
Your mother is among the fair and wise.
Your mom is based, cherish her for as long as life will grant you the time with her
I'm of a similar mind about Wheel of Time. Every time a new book would come out I'd start the series over again. Just thanks but no thanks.
And I should have passed on this garbage reimagining of Tolkien's world. The thing is a complete disgrace.
Oh well. Time to whatch LOTR extended edition again.
In fairness to the over the top elf antics you pointed about about flipping around etc; the elf lords could stand up to maiar like Balrogs and even Sauron himself. The elves of a certain class were kinda superhuman, same with the Numenorians; so impressive athletic feats to rival or surpass Captain America is probably to be expected if you wanted to punch up the action.
when i have a ranged weapon i always start my attack with an epic twirling backflip towards the enemy
I got goosebumps when Guyladriel said "Sauron was wearing wigs in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching Rings right before she died"
My grandmother told me I don't care what they tell you in school Galadriel was always a Starfleet officer with Mistborn abilities.

When Galadriel said "“It’s 106 miles to Rivendell, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark... and we’re wearing elf wigs.” Brings a tear to my eye.

🇨🇦 If entertainment studios wanted us to hate them since the 2010s, they must need help or our own new network & studios.
What Amazon should've done was had Peter Jackson involved with the project instead of ghosting him in the beginning. Imagine how more of an epic it would've been.
The showrunners don't understand Tolkien's world or care enough about the source material. It's truly disappointing to see such a legendary piece of fiction being treated this way.
You're just now figuring this out?
They can't create their own. They know that making an unattached fully original piece with this kind of writing would fail even worse than the corruption and vandalism they do. So they spray paint the Mona Lisa, castrate the statue of David, and super glue clown noses on the sistine chapel and call people who object to such vandalism as bigots.
@@eyedunno8462 Sad thing is it's very untrue and they understand the world very much. Unfortunetly there's so many of you pretending to have read the books and pretend to know Tolkien that follow these ragebait youtubers and hate for no reason.
Pacing as dialogue was off in season 1, but it was a good show. Season 2 looks a lot better.
The problem is even if they would understand the works of Tolkien the show would´ve likely sucked anyway the showrunners have no experience running a project this massive and only got the job since they worked for Jar Jar Abrams who back then still had some weight to throw around. On their own the 2 showrunners never got something from the ground and ROP is their first show that isn´t cancelled in the playing stage.
On top of that you have Jennifer Salke as head of the studio who doesn´t care about quality or what the audience wants as long as the "right messages" are in the show.
LoTR is being treated this way because it's such a legendary piece of fiction.
As a cornerstone of Western high-culture, it's debasement is the entire objective.
Sauron enters
Galadriel: Sauron?
*Puts on a wig*
Galadriel: PERRY THE SAURON!

As Einstein said:
" The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."
Ironically, Einstein supported Communism...🤷♂️
And yet, people keep comin' back for MORE jankety jank. That, instead of supporting intelligent writing from independent creators who actually know how dramatic structure, character archetypes, and thematic underpinnings are truly MEANT to be during proper storytelling.

"Before I start, I must see my end. Destination known, my mind's journey now begins. Upon my chariot, heart and soul's fate revealed. In time, all points converge, hope's strength resteeled. But to earn final peace at the universe's endless refrain, we must see all in nothingness... before we start again."

They prioritized DEI over hiring quality writers. For the writers they hired, this is the very best they can turn out and as long as they live in their bubble, they believe they're doing a great job.
As for Amazon itself, if THE MESSAGE results in plummeting quality, that just means it'll take time for society to wake up and embrace the one true faith.
oh yea I remember him, the dude from far cry 3
I thought this show had an international ban after certain nations were caught using it for torture on prisoners.
Those poor souls crying out, "Make it stop".....Some things are just too cruel.
PJ didn't want to include the sequence with Tom Bombadil because it didn't advance the story. (Which he was absolutely right about.) Amazon can safely wrap old Tom into their series. After all, it doesn't have a story to drive forward...
You can build a boat out of cement. In fact they have as long as it's shaped like a boat and displaces the right amount of air it won't sink. It seems illogical to giant boats made out of steel float. Steel is rather heavy but if you shape it like a boat and keep it watertight it will float. Obviously it's about displacement not about density of the material
3:08 - "...when Hollywood purposely excludes half the population in the name of inclusion." Fucking brilliant! 😎
Looking for this! Basically Hollywood nowadays in a nutshell
In the immortal words of John Hurt in Spaceballs: "Oh no. Not again."
Ah, but they didn't say what "rings" they were talking about, did they?
I seem to recall a pot of petunias making the same observation....
You're a legend for quoting that movie 👍
It funny how Amazon has funneled all that money, yet couldn't give anymore towards The Expanse, a show that actually had a great story to tell. I'm still waiting for adaptations of the last three books.
ON POINT!
Amazons blunder has caused them to ruin their Prime membership. There is almost never anything you don't have to pay for now on there.
I'm just so tired of it all. It just feels like Hollywood is saying "Everything you once enjoyed shall be fouled."
"We must destroy the old world, so we can replace it with our new world!"
- Every communist ever.
Yeah. Thats the idea.
Intersectional feminists...
Everything that had straight white males as the heros
What's doing the fouling? Or, rather, what's the motive in the fouling?
The thing about Galadirel is that she didn't even need to be ripped apart like this to be a powerful female character, or a morally questionable hero. In the ACTUAL canon of Tolkien's Legendarium, Galadriel goes to Middle Earth in pursuit of her desires to rule a land of her own. This was denounced by the Valar (the gods) and she was banned from sailing home until later after Morgoth was defeated. They didn't NEED to make her mean and arrogant because she had other flaws they could have used. They had a character whose original motives were questionable at best, and turned her into a warmongering narcissistic sociopath.
Many says that writers of this shit just turn her into Fёanor. And i tend to agree. Except, you know.... Fёanor actually well written (morally questionable) character created by talented man who know what the fuck he is doing and Guyladriel is just pure cringe.
@@user-jn4fx7fq3f Galadriel absolutely should be an insufferable high and mighty person as all children of Feanor, but it seems they want her to be a hero instead
I think you are under the misconception that the show-runners actually read any of Tolkiens works. They are FAR superior writters then that old Inglish guy and there stuff is far gooder than his.
Feanor was indeed mighty, as well as arrogant, selfish, and cocksure. But these were not heroic qualities. They got him killed, and brought ruin to his family and all his people. To the extent Galadriel was like that in her youth, they could have shown her learning that hard lesson, thus becoming who she is in LOTR. But the ROP writers seem to think those qualities should be celebrated.
They needed her to be 'more relatable' to the writers, producers, et al (who are the *real* target audience of so many modern shows and films), so they gave her qualities that they see or imagine in themselves.
When you told me to go away at the end of the video I was so happy I subscribed. THANK YOU for not being generic. I might even watch your adds 😂
Btw the tower in snow is not Bard-Dur. It is the snow fortess from the 1st season where Galadriel and her crew found some ancient trails. It is probably something far in the north.
They really can’t take a hint that people dont want this shit
Dude, it's not an accident.
It's a Schitt test.
They already paid for it ahead of time, so they're kinda screwed. XD
Money laundering scheme.
I think it's on purpose. Destroy culture, make people turn away from their beloved stories. Divide to conquer.
but it's money to be made on both sides from this stuff. The media and the people making tons from the "We got to fight back army", both sides are in on this together. both sides are about feminism and alphabet these days.
The fact that House of the Dragon dropped their season 2 trailer right after Rings of Power did make it clear that they were absolutely waiting for that trailer to drop to capitalize on fans throwing shade at Rings of Power.
You know what I was so nervous to try HOD after GOT's later seasons and I was so pleasantly surprised. I'm very excited.
@@jonathanferguson7791 it's because GOT's last season has nothing to do with Martin's work, contrary to HoD where martin is involved in the project.
@@aidenpearse2940 ....Appreciate the solidarity but I'm tracking bb :P
it was a petty yet brilliant marketing strategy, well done HBO
Checked the offical trailer now and iot's already at 300k dislikes - but for once they didn't turn the comments off, and they're absolutely gold
Edit: I watched the HoD S2 trailer just now - and HBO 100% knew what they were doing with this timing, response overwhelmingly positive
The black elves and the white orcs...🤦♂️ 4:39
My favorite part is when Guy-Lad Unreal grasped the crystal detonator and blew up middle Earth as The Uruk Hai Astronauts escaped to go back in time and wind up on Planet Wahlberg Having Chuck Heston place chimps on ponies.
"for they were all of them decieved... for another wig was made"
that comment absolutely killed me 😂😂😂
The funniest thing is that I searched for the "Rings of Power season 2 trailer" on RUclips and it suggested the House of the Dragon season 2 trailer before Rings of Power ironically.
haha. Real gigachad move by someone at HBO for sure.
I agree with you except for your complaint about Diversity Elf. Legolas got away with some stupidly flamboyant impossible moves like magically spinning himself onto that horse, while standing, from the opposite side, in Two Towers. The precedent which moves like his set, means that spinny-flippy-out-of-carriage-thingy here is not an anomaly, and criticizing that in particular is meaningless with the past films in context.
Dude, you're such a delight to listen to. You had me cracking up.
Devout catholic man's love letter to Abrahamic aesops and european folklore turned into paint-by-numbers modern sermonizing about DEI.
Said man rotates at 70 RPM in his grave, and continues to accelerate. More at 10 PM.
A masterwork made to be a mythology for England turned into globalist slop.
And they say perpetual motion doesn't exist.
The worst part is seeing these people putting themselves on the same level and above Tolkien himself.
Pure arrogance.
They're not even worthy of holding his chamberpot. Slimy creatures.
IMO, it's not arrogance... it's the evidence (proof) of how *little* they understand the original material.
They comprehend the words and such... but have *zero* grasp of the underlying themes... like the reason
that a *man* would give his life for a brother in arms... because none of *them* would make that decision.
It's the reason that their attempts to create an Ellen Ripley or Sarah Connor turn out like Rey or Guyladriel.
Specially since it took Tolkien decades to finish his work. Due to a small intermission between the first book and the 2nd one (WW2).
Best writers live first, then, at old age, write. That way their fantasy is believable.
NGL, the landscape shot reminded me of the entrance to the trench run in Top Gun: Maverick.
Given the poor reception this upcoming season is getting.... Might be prudent to position a CVN off the coast with a specialist unit onboard armed with several GBUs.
Just saying, because it might be better to lands some JDAMs into the dragon lair before the dragon comes out to burn the legacy of Tolkien's work.
CRUSHING those interviews drinker…
"for all of them were deceived for another wig was made" - saw this and im dying 😂
''How the fuck do you just explode out of a stationary wagon like this?'' Thank you for making me laugh today. That line was crafted better than all of season 1.
He was yeeted by "The Message."
That's what gets you wet? A passing statement of disbelief?
Blegolas doesn't adhere to physics
He came out arse first. An unusual combat move.
He was trained by Palpatine in Star wars episode 3.
Your channel deserves 1.6 Billion subs.
I am still mad about some of the elves looking like old geysers.
Can we also talk- preferably at length -about the fact that Don Lemonlas gets corkscrew-launched out of that wagon ASS FIRST like he's a Looney Tunes character who floated headfirst down the muzzle of a cannon because Bugs Bunny hid a wafting apple pie in there?
I don't know that we can talk about that at length when you gave quite possibly the best description of it possible
Yeah. To me it looks obviously reversed, which isn't unusual, but they normally film the shot so it looks like it's going the right way when they do it.
Maybe the wire guys screwed up but they couldn’t afford to reset so the director said “Naah, it’ll be fine” between swigs of Toilet Duck.
No, After reading that I don't want to talk... I want you to monologue!
Makes me wonder if massive projects like these are money laundering operations.
🤣
@@ERH-ph5gb These projects are the Long John Silvers of the movie and TV show world.
Deep down you know it lol
Justin Trudeau would like to know their carbon footprint
You *just* finally figured that out?
I honestly think that's the case. Paintings and sculptures are too obvious and I bet the feds are double checking every single purchase of those sorts.
But Hollywood consumer slob? There's no way feds will check that shit out because it's so boring! Genious!
Me and my family loved Ring of Power. Can't wait for season 2 and hopefully many more!
One thing that's sad is that now many people won't be able to see story before lotr in Toiekin's world and how the lotr cast won't be able to see the new one coming
God bless you for sacrificing hours of your life to watch this garbage so we don't have to. You're a hero of the people, Drinker. 🍻

Amen to that!
