    The moment I saw the rider with the hammer, I knew it was Helm Hammerhand himself.

    That punch got him his nick name Hammerhand. That and him stealing out into the night and killing a bunch of enemies bare handed.

    The visual style from the Peter Jackson films translate amazingly well here, and it feels like a mix of the 1997-era anime visual style of *_Princess Mononke_* and the *_BERSERK_* anime in how it's both translating established Western Fantasy but still having an undeniable style of classic Japanese animation sensibility to it as well.
    Really looking forward to this.

    This is what I love to see, the world of LOTR is so massive that there can be millions of stories to be told in this world, through video games, movies, anime, tv shows, books, the possibilities are endless, I’d love to see more anime films in the world of middle earth

    That's Miranda Otto narrating the beginning of the trailer. Eowyn is most likely telling us this story herself.

    Helm Hammerhand was arguably the most badass king of Rohan! Its where we got the name Helms deep since it existed as another name before! :D

  • @hellowhat890
    @hellowhat890 4 месяца назад +2

    “Arise, arise, riders of Rohan! Fell deeds awake, fire and slaughter! Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered! A sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin, and the world’s ending! DEATH!! Forth Eorlingas!!”
    RIP King Bernard Hill. He probably would have loved this if he had lived to see it.

    I think the only place to read about this is in the Appendices of the Return of the King book. Part II The House of Eorl is about the History of the Rohirrim.

    Amazing! So hyped.
    Also, Wulf and his father (Freca) enlisted the dunlendings for aid in the books, maybe they also hired the haradrim as mercenaries?

    • @thomaschaumeil3878
      @thomaschaumeil3878 4 месяца назад

      Wulf makes alliance with the minions of Sauron the Dark Lord, the Dunlendings joined forces with the Easterlings, Haradrim and Corsairs against both the Rohirrim and Gondorians. With fleets of Harad and Umbar distracting Gondor, the Wildmen of Dunland saw their chance in TA 2758 and crossed the Isen into Rohan, backed by their new allies.

    Visual fidelity cannot change as long as the trilogy is cinematically alive. Cinema has not overcome lord of the rings. The artistic impression of Jackson's films hasn't been overcome in general terms of cinematic creations. It is impression that makes the difference in art. Jackson made the films of the century, the roots in the pop culture are so deep like the mines of Moria. I cannot see any way that this can change in the near future.

    I hear a lot of people stating they get Ghibli vibes, I don’t. Personally, this was screaming Vinland Saga and a little bit of Sword of the Stranger.

  • @acdragonrider
    @acdragonrider 4 месяца назад +2

    I definitely get Mononoke vibes! I will say I’m still not a fan of anime and ghibli aesthetic as far as how they make humans look. Just a me taste thing but I am open to it and am excited for the show. It looks incredible especially with the visuals of the landscapes and the armor and horse designs. Story sounds epic too. Will need to reread the appendices to brush up on my memories of this time period in Rohan’s history.
    Cox is a badass choice to play Helm.
    I wonder if the tree grabbing hold of the oliphaunt is a Huorn?

    I'm in. All. In. Not going to argue with purists who say this story can't happen. I am in. We get to see Helm become the *original* "One Punch Man" and an exploration of what could have taken place in the margins of what Tolkien wrote. *RIDE NOW! RIDE NOW!*

    Hi Grizzled Wizard, great reaction. Would it be possible for you to react to the animated film The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf which is on Netflix. It came out in 2021 and it focuses on Geralt's mentor Vesemir. It is in the fantasy genre and I think you would like it. Thank you for all the content.

  • @wichard1994

    While the civil war happening in Rohan, the servants of Sauron are still collecting the rings. ""Dont mind me, I'm just collecting the rings from a dead man". Guys you should watch the Japanese version trailer. Its way better.

  • @geoffreyhaselden2106

    I agree with you about the art - it looks absolutley fantastic. I'm worried about the story though. They're pitching Helms daughter as the MC which makes me wonder how they're going to handle Helms succession and the ascension of Frealaf to the throne upon helms death and the retaking of Edoras... I fear they're making many of the same mistakes that ROP has made

    Why do studios feel the need to update these stories for modern audiences? The actual fan base is the reason the project was green lit, but they create projects for a group of people that don't watch. It's so dumb.

      @@StarfishPatrick231 exactly! They do the same thing with race. Marvel and DC have a huge catalog of characters of color, yet they choose characters to race bend. Some of them aren't even that popular. Just choose poc characters and pull from existing stories. It's so damn lazy.

    This looks like it could be entertaining I'm just not a fan of the editing for this trailer. The use of footage from Two Towers, the cuts, the non Howard Shore music in the second half and the on screen text all makes this feel more like a trailer for a straight-to-video movie from the late 2000s than a film being released in theaters in 2024. It's a weird complaint for a movie I want to see it just nags me more than I'd like.
