    Pippin being referred to as "Prince of the Halflings" was technically correct, he was the oldest son of the Thain, and Tooks were the closest thing to royalty that Hobbits had.

  • @pendragon2012
    @pendragon2012 6 месяцев назад +87

    One of the great strengths of Tolkien's writing is the compelling tertiary characters like Beregond, Radagast, Bombadil, Hama....

  • @istari0
    @istari0 6 месяцев назад +73

    I love the scene where Aragorn pronounces judgement upon Beregond. It beautifully handles the consequences of the impossible situation Beregond found himself in when he made the decision to save Faramir.

    • @KororaPenguin
      @KororaPenguin 6 месяцев назад +6

      Beregond's ultimate decision was basically, Screw the rules; I'm doing what's right.

    • @icwells
      @icwells 5 дней назад +1

      It's also an example of the type of king Aragon would become: balanced and just.

    "The very warmth of my blood seems stolen away" - They gave this line to Gimli in the films when entering the Paths of the Dead. Interesting to see where lines are taken from the book and moved to completely different settings in the films.

  • @adpirtle
    @adpirtle 6 месяцев назад +10

    Beregond is fascinating because he and his son are the only Gondorians we spend any significant time with in The Lord of the Rings who aren't Stewards or Princes, so it's through their eyes that we learn how the people feel about their kingdom and its rulers.

    • @rikk319

      Don't forget Ioreth, though she seems to play more for ironic humor.

    Congratulations on the big 1 Million! After falling out of the LOTR fandom around 2015, it was you who had brought me back to this wonderful world of Tolkien. After watching only 2 of your videos, I went out and bought the Silmarillion, and now I’ve read pretty much everything except The History of Middle-earth. Thank you for making these excellent videos that bring people new and old to appreciate and love Tolkien!

  • @fingersTitan
    @fingersTitan 6 месяцев назад +56

    Well deserved and you'll get your 1 mill subs plaque.
    It would be nice if the Tolkien Est acknowledge this amazing milestone.

    Fantastic work, NotR! Bergond is indeed a wonderful character.
    Perhaps my (and by extension, my fellow nerds') eyes and ears will soon be blessed with Erkenbrand, my favorite tertiary character.

  • @JohnPeacekeeper
    @JohnPeacekeeper 6 месяцев назад +7

    This is one guy I really wish was in the movies too. But at least they gave some of his parts to Faramir and Gandalf, so the essence is there.

  • @kevinmoore4845
    @kevinmoore4845 6 месяцев назад +5

    Im so spoiled by the movies that i completely forgot about Beregond, who is only in the books. I recall the description from him seeing the Nazgul swooping onto the retreating Gondor solders only to have Gandalf appear with an outstretched hand uncloaking his power to save them. Described fantastically in the Return of The King.

    An Epic portrait of The Guard of the Citadel, who decided to fight shadow and madness for that which he loved. Something to think about, definitely.
    Congratsz on the 1M Matt! Well deserved definitely. Looking forward to more adventures of the Dwarven company in Moria as well. If Yoystan doesnt bring down Moria on itself, in the meanwhile xD. Cheers for the content!

  • @kalm6872
    @kalm6872 6 месяцев назад +5

    I always respected Beregond for this dedication to Faramir but we must muse about the judgment of aragorn and if it was fair for the slain porter. It is a hard take to judge but I do like Beregond and miss him in the movies

    • @grossepointemichigan
      @grossepointemichigan 6 месяцев назад

      Beregond killed the porter AND a couple of Citadel guards to save Faramir.
      He loved Minas Tirith and was banished from the city for those deeds. But King Elessar tempered his justice with mercy and didn't order Beregond's death. So, although banished, which was a great blow to Beregond's heart, he was put into the service of Faramir as Faramir's captain of the Steward's guard. Beregond knew he had received a great mercy in the midst of justice.
      Justice tempered with mercy - the hallmarks of the King Elessar.

    And can you do a vid dedicated to Sons of Feanor, all seven of them in a long vid or maybe 2 or 3 parts, because so far I can only see that you had created vids for only 3 of them (Maedhros, Curufin and Maglor) so I'm sure we would like to know about the rest of them too, so maybe a special video dedicated to all them, hopefully you can consider this.
