This is So Great Tea! Im So happy you got to talk with Ben & ask him your signature question😊

Nobody cares. The rings of power is a crap show

In the final neutralization of Sauron according to Adar's "Crown+Three thesis", how can the effect of the Three preventing the Elves from fading (their influence on the dynamics of the fading phenomenon) on Sauron's loss of will to reincarnate be considered metaphysically?

I managed to snag a copy from Amazon's secondhand market ($128 shipped) after having missed the original release. Many of the exterior boxes were damaged, and some were returned. My copy does has a dent on the backside edge, but I can live with it. If you love film/tv scores, the music and this release are not to be missed.

Many thoughts but for now I'll just share this--in story-telling I'm not a fan of adventurequests like the one Bombadil is observing Not-Gandalf pursue. "You have failed all the trials so far,"--well dude I don't even know who I am, I blasted my friends into another Middle-Earth zip code and your riddle game isn't working out well now, is it? That being said, like you, I expect the Stranger to choose Nori instead of essentially grasping for power, even though Tom paints the latter as a worthy and even noble path. But yes it's a trick question. Despite my general tone above I really enjoyed this episode. Galadriel/Adar, Sauron/Celebrimbor, most of the Dwarf segments, and Elendil/Miriel, all high points. And the all-too-brief Arondir. Thanks so much for this video!

The Stranger is both Luke trying to save Han and Lea and Harry Potter. I felt a bit let down after realizing both those parallels.

I always viewed it as separate and a sort of modernist fanfiction to Lord of the Rings, and while I should instinctively hate alot of the show's qualities it asks interesting questions in its own right that predate its otherwise surface level wokeness, that while annoying, is braindead to focus on and get outraged over. The show comes close to executing well and the actors do their job but the writing doesn't take itself seriously enough or try to rise to a high level. The dialogue is always too self aware and self limiting.

CANCEL THIS GARBAGE

Annatar smirking there at the end is the first time he’s broken character and shown his true inner self. I’ve been keeping watch! He feels VERY secure in how his plans are unfolding!

That was the best episode of the season so far, they really put Sauron center-stage. I questioned many choices they made, but Sauron manipulating Celebrimbor and everybody around him is real fun. Series shows him in a way that it's getting hard not to root for him, he is playing 4D chess while everybody is playing checkers. I would prefer them stopping referencing LotR movies: like with Arondir running after Adar's army in a way like Legolas did with Gimli and Aragorn after Uruk-hai, although Arondir's fight with Orcs was perhaps the best fight scene this season (Ismael Cordova seems to be better trained than Morfydd Clark); or referencing Gandalf's dialogues in the scenes between Tom Bombadil and the Stranger. Even Harfoot scenes in the previous episodes are eerily similar to Nazgûl in the Shire (masked raiders are clearly made to resemble them). Also, Luke Skywalker/Yoda scene between Bombadil and Stranger totally broke immersion for me. The series really shines when does original stuff, like interactions between Sauron and Celebrimbor, or Durin and his father, not when it is copying others.

Love your work, Tea 3:09 I hated this line too... only part of the episode that bothered me. Love your Dark Rizzard slip :D 17:37 He knows she's really Celebrian. He's enjoying messing with Galadriels secret hidden daughter. 20:00 This is an illusion state. The 'mithril' is probably Sauron's blood from when he sliced his hand. 21:07 The episode is called Where is he?. Here he says "Here I am!" 21:18 That line hit hard for me. The line is starting to pay off from S1. In S1 it felt cheesy because it wasnt connected to much. In S2, it is intrinsic to Elendil's faith and the Faithful's fight back against the Kingsmen. The most moving part of this episode was Durin not wanting to lose his father and having to come to terms with that his father is already gone.

I think 'the sea is always right', was meaning Pharizon and the new ways win that argument, when Elendil said it.

I appreciate your fair criticisms. Everybody wants this show to fail, so badly it's probably worth their sub count. I just want to be entertained I have subscribed to your channel and wish you all the best for the future. Thanks.

Sauron posing at the end with his hands stretched out reminded me of an conductor overlooking the conclusion of his symphony (as one of the Ainu he must know a thing or two about magic). The whole episode was fantastic !!!!! (everything Eregion), but I really dislike that they gave Tom to quote Gandalf from "Fellowship", it made no sense.

A Rizzard is never late, nor is he early...

The "mithril" that he gives to Celebrimbor is not mithril, its probably his blood somehow thats why he cut his hand open :)

Ohhh, when we saw Sauron cutting his hand doing some dark spell, blood ritual, it has totally gone into that pot he gives Celibrimbor for the 9!

Nice video again, thanks! When they say, "The sea is always right," I didn't really get it. It's only this episode & the trial via the Valar of the Sea that made me think that when they refer to the sea, they're actually referring to the Valar & the Maiar themselves! It's the faithful that always say the sea is always right, so I believe they are referring to God of Sea Ulmo, along with his Maiar Ossë & Uinen! I think it makes a lot more sense looking at it that way. Thanks again for your analysis! ☕️☕️

“Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin good forces have invented or made” ― JRR Tolkien That's all I can say about this series

great video and i wonder what will happen if adar and sauron aka anatar will face down in ereginon who will lve and who will fall to death and who know what will happen to numinor will it stand in the ocean or will it sink into the ocean with some of the people in it that's what i want to know

Great recap. I think the object he gives Celebrimbor contains his blood, he just lied and told Celebrimbor he got Mythril from Narvi. His blood will be infused into whatever Mythril he stole to have more dominance over men

It sounds like Elendil got a lot of good lines in this episode

I respect your dedication to analyse and give your opinion in a very calm and thoughtful way. This show does not deserve your energy and time.

Is Luke going to remain on Dagobah with Yoda and learn the ways of the Force or leave for Bespin to rescue his friends?

We don't get many romance stories that involve the blind so it's interesting that the show has one (even if the outcome is predetermined)

Sauron is rizzing and so is the Dark Rizzard

Neat

Best episode of the whole series for me so far, and that is saying something since I am the one person who loves the harfoot storyline maybe the most (I know I am a unicorn) and they weren't there at all. Also the way Sauron brought up Galadriel's hair while touching another woman's was definitely creepy, and yet, I loved it. He is still on Galadriel's mind, and she hates it. She is still on his mind, and it's making him a bit unhinged. I can't wait to see what happens when they meet again.

Thank you soo much for this vid! Helped me a lot to remember what I read lol!

I'm enjoying it about the same. Which is lots. And excited for the next episodes.

I enjoy all episodes so far my beloved series. And pleasant. To have your notes

Loved those name drops of tuor and beren. He knows them too well. 😅 I love how Sauron has a genuine that yes there could men who could shine forth. But his point is to eliminating them. Amazing

Yes no more harfoots hugging 😂

👏👏👏 well said. Agreed 💯

A rambling, incoherent, terrible episode. Until now the dwarves have been the only 'faction' of the show that I've been happy with, but the nonsense regarding the ring and knowing where to mine was so badly done. Apart from the badly miscast elves the visuals of the show continue to be the high point, I think going forward I'll watch the show with the volume turned to zero and simply imagine my own dialogue and storyline, because what we're getting from the writing room is absolutely sub-par.

This episode is absolutely the best this season (personally I thought ep3 was the weakest). The Silmarilion references? Omg! About Annatar charming Mirdania, 1.) what a way for him to paint Celebrimbor as the one who needs “healing”, and 2.) it was creepy as heck the way he stroked her hair (especially as i still believe “Mirdania” is an alias of Celebrian, hence why she blushed when he compared her to Galadriel). And seriously, love they don´t present Celabrimbor as utterly stupid, he does push back on Annatar, he does have enough integrety to not follow his every word blindly, only… its Sauron he has to deal with, so… The Numenor plot thickens! Really began to dislike Kemen this season, but then he smashes Nienna´s relic (loved we saw her) and kills my man Valendil?

10 out 10 episode

I'm sad that the doors were made offscreen too. Still, lots of things going on in this episode!

One of the best episodes of the season. The plots feel urgent and essential, there's a growing sense of dread and tragedy closing in around these characters as Annatar's shadow descends upon Middle Earth.......the way Disa discovers the hidden depth is a little silly, and I still wish Nûmenor got a little more attention to breathe before this. But otherwise, brilliant. The Annatar/Celebrimbor storyline is becoming PEAK! Great review

This is absolutely my favourite episode of the season, maybe even of the entire series, so far! Loved how they filled empty spaces within the lore to deepen the story and enrich the characters. So exciting!

Apparently Sauron has a thing for blondes

Great episode! SO relieved Numenor is finally talking about death and deathlessness. These are all my favorite plotlines, so I was feasting this episode. I do wish we got more time for Narvi and Celebrimbor, and Disa's way of discovering the utter depths of Moria was goofy, but these are quibbles - the rest of it was really fantastic. And the after-interview was great too!! Lloyd Owen really understands his character and Numenors story

The moment when Halbrand/Sauron starts talking all friendly to Calabimbor in ep2 of s2.... never did I wish to strangle Sauron more! Leave my man Calabrimbor alone!!! We artist have a natural weakness for compliments! Great video btw!!!!

My two braincells just connected, and I realized that Celebrimbor will be gone from Rings of Power in just 4 episodes. I am not ready for that...

The series seems to me to combine both versions of Celebrimbor. It gives the impression of a character journey that he left Nargothrond before the fall of this city and went to Gondolin, and after that fell, he came to the deltas of Sirion with the Noldor exiles. As mentioned in the series, it is understood that Elrond's interaction with his father Eärendil is also thanks to this.

I love all the elves scenes! Elrond is just amazing and we love Arondir! He gives me feels of Beleg

Heir? Mere scion of Fëanor? You meant to say: revered as the Lord of the Rings

Everyone with a ring keep telling Elrond, "no". 😂
