By the way, if any asshole claiming to be me replies to your comments saying you've won an amazing prize or some similar nonsense, ignore and report them immediately. Its a scam, and its happening everywhere on UA-cam right now.
Hi I'm the critical drinker and you've won a prize..... Lol jk
OK.
Just when i finally won something 😭
6:10 It's time to kill off your bleks ... they had done their non-cannon THE MESSAGE duty for the season ... their time has passed... into the West they go!
@@justincase5975 I wonder what that was all about, it always led to a blank copy of the persons channel.
In Fellowship of the Ring, Sean Bean has about 25 minutes of screen time. In that time, Boromir is initially established as a dutiful servant of Gondor, a battle weary warrior fed up with the lords of the lands kept safe by his people, a doubter of Aragorn, and someone with honorable desires upon The Ring. He's dismissive, weathered, prickly, and even a bit defeatist when the scale of the task is laid before the group.
He's then shown teaching Merri and Pippin to fight, through encouragement and light-hearted instruction. He's horrified when he accidentally hurts Pippin, because his intention is to teach not humiliate or discourage them. So he's absolutely joyous when the hobbits gang up, shrug it off, and tackle him in good humour. This tells us a lot about Boromir as a person without needing to lean on dialogue-heavy explanations. Heck, it isn't even the main focus of the scene, but it's there, happening nicely in the background, laying the groundwork for his and the hobbits' characters. It shows us, gently, that even though he's doubtful about their mission, Boromir takes the initiative and recognises where his party needs to level up, and does it without making them feel small. He builds bonds that he knows will make the group stronger. Bear this moment in mind when you consider Galadriel's scene in RoP, where she, as the superior swords person, is tasked with instructing the Numenorean recruits and what her actions tell us about her character.
Anyway, Boromir falls deeper under the influence of the Ring, but the film also shows him standing his ground and being brave against the Moria hordes and at every turn when the group need him.
When the Fellowship is fleeing the Balrog and the staircase is collapsing, he instinctively grabs Merri and Pippin and, without a word, he leaps them both to safety, again establishing his big brother relationship with them. It's such a small detail but it's so consistent as it quietly builds his bond with those hobbits in particular and it's especially interesting to see him do it after Legolas, and even Gandalf, have jumped alone. All shown to you through small details and interactions that involve very little dialogue. All action. All intent. All with purpose and meaning.
After Gandalf falls, Boromir pleads with Aragorn for more time just to let the hobbits grieve. He's compassionate, emotional, and caring. He is miles away from the dismissive, prickly presence he was at the Council of Elrond. He's truly a part of this Fellowship now, and he has a bond with the hobbits that goes beyond duty. It shows Boromir, while a good leader, also maybe thinks with his heart when he should think with his head, whereas Aragorn is more pragmatic and, in a way, ruthless. Both display different sorts of strength, but the situation calls for one over the other. And while Boromir protests, he doesn't argue further once Aragorn has made his reasoning clear. THAT also tells us a lot about both men.
Boromir is revealed to be an incredibly layered human being, one who is brave, loyal, caring, passionate and patriotic, but the burden of his father's failing rule and the pressure of protecting his people is crushing him. Haunting him. That is on full display at the Council, during his first temptation on the mountainside, and when he breaks down after Galadriel looks right into his soul and shakes him to his core. And it's that very thing, that incredibly noble desire to see darkness and ruin expelled from Gondor that is his undoing. That desire is the ring's way in.
He finally falls to temptation and this one moment of weakness almost destroys him, but rather than wallow in his failings, he rallies. He does all he can do to repent, and rescues Merri and Pippin in a desperate attempt to regain who he was.
And he is struck down.
His first words to Aragorn while he lies dying are to alert him that the Uruks have Merri and Pippin. His second statement is his confession that he tried to take the ring. He is broken, dying, and guilt-ridden, but still trying to protect the hobbits and act with honor.
Then before he dies, in his last breath, he accepts Aragorn as his king and makes sure Aragorn knows it. Because Boromir has only ever wanted one thing - the strength to defend his people. And now, he sees that strength might exist in Aragorn, and he knows saying the words will help make Aragorn a stronger leader going forward. He now has hope even in his darkest moment, when he began the story defeatist, bitter, and hopeless. Boromir does all he can until the end, despite his flaws and failures. He's no longer the dismissive and doubtful captain of Gondor, but a man who calls Aragorn his brother, his captain, and the king he trusts to bring glory back to his people.
It's a breath-taking moment. Resonant. Earnest. Earned.
They accomplish all that, that entire emotional journey, that rise, fall, and rise again for his character, in 25 minutes of screen time.
Now look at RoP. Galadriel is exactly the same callous, single-minded, revenge-driven asshole at the end of the series as she was in ep1. Actually, no. She's worse. Because now, she has actually discovered who the enemy is and smoked out his intentions... and chooses to tell no one.
All to protect her own reputation. All so she can maintain an air of authority and superiority over her peers, because if they knew the truth, her name would be mud, and she'd be nowhere near the decisions taken to forge the rings, how many there'd be, and who'd get to bear them. She shouldn't be like this. I don't think they meant for her to be like this. Her character writing feels shallow, rushed, and poorly thought out and now, there's a big disconnect between how the audiences feels about her and what the writers intended.
She tells other characters to be humble, while she's brash, condescending, and arrogant. She tells others not to pursue vengeance when that's all she cares about pursuing. She talks about the importance of saving lives in the Southlands, but she's never shown saving a single person. She's shown threatening to torture and murder Adar's orcs if she doesn't get her way and she's shown walking away from the volcano blast when others are screaming around her, begging for help. Then the showrunners assert that if you don't find yourself liking her, or find yourself uninterested in her character, it's your fault. You're the problem.
She's not like Boromir. Not written like him. Not developed like him. Not treated with the same care, thought, and humanity his character was treated with. She's a statue, standing still in spiteful, vengeful self-righteous self-service. Just like she was at the beginning of the series.
Nine hours ago.
With over THREE hours of screen time just for her where her character barely moves at all, and the actress is given nearly nothing to do in terms of range, humanity, or even basic heroism.
This issue isn't unique to Galadriel. In fact, no characters in RoP have changed or grown or shown any depth at all throughout this first season. How could they? We know so little about most of them to begin with, never mind how they might have transformed or grown, that they come off as one-dimensional NPCs who exist to move the plot along, who make baffling decisions because the story has to happen, with no agency or impetus to their actions. Except maybe Durin, I'll give them Durin. He does seem to go through something of a journey with his father, Disa, and his place in the kingdom... and then his storyline is ignored in the finale. And then of course, there's the bloody bad guy. Sauron gets more development and "growth" than Galadriel, Elendil, or Isildur. That's... wow.
Some of the actors are trying their hearts out and their natural talent and charm helps elevate the material, but the writing itself is a anchor around their necks.
In a world and with characters created by JRR Tolkien, the characters are being failed at every turn, and so is the story.
That's criminal. That's a fucking criminal excuse for storytelling when a prestige franchise is in your hands.
Wonderfully written and we got to give credit to Sean Bean as well who delivered an incredibe performance
Well said
Sean Bean is Goated fr
Excellent comment right here…analysis is 100% on point. Makes me want to go back and rewatch fellowship
@@John-xr9ry I wish Bean had played Strider.
“Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made." - JRR Tolkien
Please stop attributing an ungrammatical axiom to Tolkien. Do you really think he’d forget that Evil was singular and use a plural pronoun therefor in the same sentence?
In Chapter 1 of Book VI of _The Lord of the Rings_ Sam asks Frodo, “Don’t orcs eat, and don’t they drink? Or do they just live on foul air and poison?”
Frodo replies, “No, they eat and drink, Sam. The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot make: not real new things of its own. I don’t think it gave life to the orcs, it only ruined them and twisted them; and if they are to live at all, they have to live like other living creatures. Foul waters and foul meats they’ll take, if they can get no better, but not poison. They’ve fed me, and so I’m better off than you. There must be food and water somewhere in this place.
That was the nerdiest shit I ever heard. And it was amazing
Sir this is a Wendy’s.
@@therealinformalmusic bro it's not that deep 😂
Rather like THE MESSAGE then lol
Suddenly, The Hobbit trilogy looks like a masterpiece!
Kinda like how once Disney got a hold of his work, George Lucas was totally redeemed.
Complaints about movie/series X being the worst are taken as a challenge to make something worse.
I always loved the Hobbit trilogy (though I acknowledged that it obviously wasn't as good as the LotR trilogy), but I, like everyone, had an improved outlook on it following this show.
Once I listened to Peter Jackson's (et al) commentary & backstory, I liked The Hobbit better. After ROP, I now love it.
@isaacwest276 i never felt like it was bad. not as good as the og trilogy, sure, but a solid series in its own right
The most important take from this video: "Characters are only as intelligent as the people writing them"
- The Critical Drinker, 2022
That's the most obvious problem with every show and film today. They are so boring, there's nothing to understand or intrigues.
Remind me of D&D, the guy who write Game of Thrones.
Try to remember this isn’t a bunch of writers coming up with a new idea, this is writers hired to do a job and having no actual say in the final product…
These are problems straight from the producers/studio, the writers don’t have a say, they just adjust and work with what they’re told to
@@patrickgermain2507 Fair point. But only applies to shows who use reference material. And Rings of Powers might have had one, but clearly didn't use any of it.
@@patrickgermain2507 That could possibly be the case, but the problem very likely and even most of the time stems from the writers. The writers decide what happens in the movie, the producers are the once that get the movie production done
I love how they tried to make Galadriel "strong" but instead they ended up making her a complete idiot 😂
Same with Maisie from JW Dominion. From an OK/meh child character to a unlikable brat.
Welcome to the feminist movement, where they make men look dumb, and women even dumber
What did you expect? She was basically a goddess in the first place, the only way they could possibly make her stronger is by being a God Tier Genius like Tolkien, so instead they're dumbing her down and making her a cartoon character
Everybody in this show behaves like if they had brain damage.
@@laughingmask3118 Gotta love/despise how bad the writing is for terrible female characters these days
I can't believe that the guy we all predicted was Sauron before the show even aired, turned out to be Sauron. Truly a historic day for fiction and entertainment.
Cant leave anything up to chance for us dumb viewers. We might not figure out the plot in between our tik tok sessions
It's only appropriate that everyone knew Sauron was Sauron before the show aired, everyone know it was going to be shit before it aired.
*fanfiction
You mean "not Sauron"?
Arguably better something obvious than them pulling an out-of-nowhere surprise twist that makes zero sense at all. (Didn't the terrible season 2 of Westworld have hasty rewrites because people were making correct predictions in fan forums and the writers felt that that wasn't OK? And GoT season 8 had the EPs basically say that they wanted some stuff to be totally unguessable)
"The Lord of the Rings is a monument to the power of one man's imagination, while Rings of Power is a monument to corporate greed and hubris." Sums it up perfectly.
Disagree. You might mean The Hobbit?
@@bronwynsheerin627 no i mean the entire story in general. and im quoting what he says in the video.
You seem to have a major comprehension problem. @@bronwynsheerin627
Yes, ROP is basically what tolkien was against , the industrialization overriding imagination,playfullness, beauty
I love how just Bilbo's chainmail could have save the whole Elven race several times over.
😆 that's exactly what I thought
Ohhhhhhh shit didn’t catch that.
What? Explain that statement please.
@@user-nz6dx2fj6h Rings of power portrayed mithril as something so rare and precious that Elrond was barely able to get away with a few grams of it to make the three rings to 'save' elves from degradation. And yet Bilbo had a whole freaking chainmail made from mithril that was gifted to him by Torin. Mithril was rare and expensive in Middleearth but not THAT special as TV series wanted to portray. After the Moria was retaken by dwarfs they remade Minas-Tirith great gates with mithril and steel.
@@Aryan_homophobe it was an Alloy, not the original metal.
"A character is only as smart as the person writing them."
That one sentence alone explains so much.
That is actually debatable. A writer can cheat and plan ahead in his story - stack the deck, so to speak - so it is possible for them to write characters that are smarter than them. What this reveals about the "writers" of this, and other woke shows - I'll let you figure that out
@@phoivos
More accurately, a character is only as WISE as the person writing them.
@@eldermillennial8330 No, the same argument can be made against any attribute you give to a character. As a matter of fact You can write a character wiser that yourself, just like you can write a character stronger, greater, smarter than yourself.
What drinker said should not be taken as fact, it's more of a methaphor on how stupid the writters of RoP are.
That's why, I'm afraid of writing...I'm afraid that people will see through the characters and see my actual intellect.
Reminds me of when I watch something with characters making poor or illogical decisions, and I complain aloud how stupid they are or unlikely it is, and it’s poor writing… And my wife chides me with “We can’t all be as clever as you” or “the story needs to happen” or “if you wrote it, It would be over in the first scene”.
"So focused on an audience that doesn't exist" - absolutely NAILED it with that remark.
Unfortunately, I've talked to a bunch of people who really enjoyed the show. Some even consider it a masterpiece, and they're not new to the franchise... I shrug.
@@chvonglica Oh man… that doesn’t spell good news to me.
I do have to disagree with Drinker one one thing. This show hasn't hurt or tarnished the image or legacy of Tolkien or LOTR. That'd be like saying Star Trek hurt the Harry Potter series. They're completely different shows
@@chvonglica It's the same with Star Wars; even longtime fans still love and defend the Fanfiction Trilogy. The "audience that doesn't exist" unfortunately does indeed, that's how they keep getting the money to make this trash.
@@chvonglica my father is sadly one of them.
They just ate all this abomination, and pass it as it was a masterpiece, because "It's Lord of the Rings after all, so it was meant to be really good!"
My brother and I couldn't stop to look at each other and sigh in disappointment.
"They've awoken their very own drunken Balrog."
Very nice.
I've not watched 1min of this show but the amount of entertainment it has brought me via these reviews is immense. I'm kinda very glad it was made for this reason ^ ^
Its actually kinda entertaining at times, would still recommend it. Has some BS in it, but its still fun at times if one can not take it too seriously.
I made it about 30 mins into an episode before I had to turn it off. I was getting flashbacks from nam, and I wasn't even there.
Same.
@@shannonbrown7016 Walter? Is,that you?
Same here I have not watched any of it but I can't get enough of these reviews. 10:20 Why is there a statue of the T-1000 from Terminator 2? Are they going to link these two franchises? Screw it, why not?
Aragorn is actually the lovechild of Sauron and Galadriel's doomed love affair. This sets up the epic scene in LOTR where Sauron utters the immortal words, "Aragorn, I am your father!"
😂😂😂😂😂
hahahaha
That would be better than the actual script : )
Why is this so funny?
Aragorn: "No, that's not true! That's impossible!"
The ROP writers turned out to be way more talented than we gave them credit. They managed to make the protagonists more unlikeable than Sauron. That takes skill.
🤣🤣🤣 it's an accomplishment indeed, but it was not skill that caused this.
That's par for the course. Our enemies tell the stories.
Aaaaand that makes you the target of sauron. He was very likeable early on, working his deceit on the elves even. Why he tried so hard on elves is because they are more powerful than the men. And he did suceed, especially in eregion. And when they doubted him he roflstomped them. So, yeah, they worked saurons shit on us, like he did in the books.
@@culturecanvas777 if stupidity were a skill then these writers would have already won several Nobel Prizes and Granny Awards
@@christiansvenjimmiekarlsso1876 no, Halbrand is at best a walking piece of soggy cardboard, it’s not by any effort of his that he is more likable. It’s merely that literally everyone else is so shite that he is the least shite of all
The saddest part is thinking about how many potential new fans were turned off by this series and will never read Tolkien’s work because of it. 😢
@@paxChristi123 I’m glad to hear it! 🙂
@@paxChristi123same. as Manwë relayed to the Valar, Eru said there will be evil acts done, but there will be beauty that follows thereafter.
I felt that way after the release of the Peter Jackson films! And judging by the gushy comments about them,just confirms the fact that their storyline is now more important to those fans than the actual real book storylines is beyond me!
Nope. Galadriel was cool. Really added meat to The Lord of the Rings. Why wouldn't you like her?
@@bronwynsheerin627 Because o’ silly one, she bears no resemblance to the Book Galadriel or, in those dreadful films by Peter Jackson! Like in the latest issue with The Witcher, you DON’T upset the fans b changing characters, plots or the storyline!
but.....why do boats float ?
yeah the moment i heard that line i went cross eyed and nearly became brain dead from the stunning and brave writing
Dialogue was definitely sketchy but overall it was very enjoyable, people love how easy it is to criticise it.
@@bwebb90it’s easy bc it’s shite
The moment Sauron whispered in Galadriel's ear "I am a feminist" was so beautiful, I cried.
With how crap this series is i wouldn't be surprised if that's canon
@don't be surprised CURSE YOU but the potato imagery was appreciated non the less
Not surprised RoP-Sauron would be a sex pest "male feminist".
Yet another male feminist turns out to be evil. smh
Hahaha
Actual Quote from Peter Jackson about making Lord of the Rings. “We made a promise to ourselves at the beginning of the process that we were not going to put any of our politics, our own messages, or our own themes in these movies.
What we were trying to do was to analyze what was important to Tolkien & to try to honor that.
In a way we were trying to make this films for him, not ourselves” - Peter Jackson
Fuck that's awesome!
And so they made one of the best trilogies with heart and soul for Tolkien's creation :)
Then they did the exact opposite and ruined half the characters .
@@TroySavary in the hobbit trilogy yes but in the lord of the rings trilogy you can see that the attempt was made.
Too bad he didn't stick to that mindset for The Hobbit movies.
Plot point: Sauron's whole 'reveal' could have been outplayed if he'd just looked at the parchment and said something along the lines of: "Yeah, that was _a thousand years_ ago. That might seem like a long weekend to you, but it's over 25 generations of us mere mortals. Did you expect us to just remain leaderless for all of time just because that one last king couldn't find himself a queen and 10 minutes of private time in a bedchamber? No. One line of kings ended, so we founded a new one. It's a mortal thing, I guess I can understand it if your immortal mind can't really grapple with having to live with death as a _fact_ of life, not just an unfortunate occasional event, but that's how it goes for us 'lesser races'. Now, are we done here?"
How can you expect the Bad Guy™ to lie? Clearly you know nothing about writing and today's generation. People don't lie these days, their mischiefs ends when a hint of their plans are glimpsed by others and they are forced to reveal their true selves.
Edit: the reason bad guys can't lie or use the least bit of social engineering is because this could have a bad influence on the teenagers watching, because the writers knows the audience is this dumb and weak minded. Also bad guys are never actually bad anymore, they are just lonely or misinterpreted, and clearly that's the case with Sauron, the incarnation of Evil itself sent by the lingering Darkness that haunts existence since the first breath of song.
@@vpaul4374 You're quite right, alas, I am once again struck down by the true curse of having a brain in the modern era. What with that whole Elrond/Durin "Alot can happen in 20 years, you aloof bastard" subplot, I thought they might have been leading up to something similar... But that's just me gone done do a think again, and you've seen the kind of mistakes THAT can lead to.
Need to remember to schedule my lobotomy before the next season comes out, so I can enjoy it as the writers intended.
poor fan fiction
This show acts likes sauron cant lie for some idiotic reason, he could have said anything other than an obvious lie and it would have worked better.
You see, that's the problem. You used brain. Never use brain. Brain bad.
Those 3 women were meant to be based on the 3 Witches from Macbeth. Now I am thinking this show is an intentional insult to Tolkien, because he hated Shakespeare, but he reserved a special hatred for Macbeth above probably any other Shakespeare play.
how much do you want to bet that the writers forgot that the witches were from a completely different story?
For what reasons he hated Shakespeare ?
I don't give these writers that much credit.
@@clementtravert442 I don't remember specifically, but I read once that he was dissapointed that the prophecy that "no man born of a women" could kill Macbeth didn't turn out to be a woman, which is from where he got the idea for the Witch King, and the prophecy regarding his eventual demise.
I don't think the writers have enough skill to think about something like this. I think they just saw the ringwraiths from the jackson movies, thought they are cool and inserted some into their own series regardless of wether this makes any logical sense whatsoever. Seems much more likely to me.
I find it amazing that a huge amount of people like myself likely watched these videos and didn't even bother watching rings of power itself
I don't. It sounds like watching these damn episodes is more of a chore than watching She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.
Yeah im not giving them viewership when they keep shitting on everything I enjoy, they need to learn
When you trust the source of the review, it's really difficult to spend the hours watching garbage only to come away from that thinking "I just watched garbage" and not regretting your decision. I don't always agree with The Drinker's reviews or agree with them fully but I do respect the fact that his analogies show that he has the knowledge, the skill, the experience, and the passion to make a realistic review of a film or TV show for his audience's benefit. I agree with him more than I disagree.
@@Xeronex This video itself has more entertainment value than the show
Black adam is in it
This show actually has me rooting for Sauron.
After the debacle that was Season 5 of Game of Thrones, I genuinely wanted the Night King and White Walkers to win. I was disappointed when they didn't
@@DerpASherpa117 Ohh agreed, but I somehow found the strength to keep cheering for Jon up until season 7, then season 8 comes and boy I wished that the Night King turn westeros into cold wasteland..
It's not because they made Sauron a well-written, deep, compelling character with understandable goals and motivations (they didn't). He's just way more likeable than any of the "good" characters.
@@82dorrin Thats fcked up....These woke people are destroying everything bro...
He's just a very naughty boy! ;)
Gandalf in the lore always looked like he did in Hobbit & Lotr, only changing when he became the white wizard.
The 5 wizards specifically chose to appear in Middle Earth as older. Gandalf being younger here destroys the canon.

These fucking scammers
Same here
yes. MVP. Even this summery was painful to watch imagine how hard it was to watch the real thing
It goes to show what an achievement it was for Peter Jackson to make high fantasy accessible to the masses.
$281 million budget ($457 million in 2021) for all three films, and Peter shot all three movies simultaneously. Amazon is a joke.
We are all blessed for the fact that PJ has decided to do the movies when he did. Would’ve never happened these days.
Peter Jackson was a filmmaker, through and through.
It's no exaggeration, because I'm personally not much into fantasy and The Lord of the Rings absolutely hooked me.
@@TheWefikus 💯💯💯. The 2000s were fantastic
The Show-runners were assembled and the youngest brought forth the Script of season one. The most brash among them stood up and proclaimed, “It is a gift. Let us use the Script to slay our critics. We can make season two, “Galadrielle, Attorney at Law.”
“The Script cannot be used for good. It must be taken deep into Amazon and cast back into the void where returned packages end up. One of you, must do this. “
“One does not simply march into Amazon. It’s black gates are guarded by more than non-union labor. There is the great Bald Head that is ever watchful. It is a wasteland, riddled with time clocks and conveyers. The very air that you breathe is a demoralizing fume.”
Nonetheless, nine of these were chosen for the task, a Fellowship of the Show-runners.
Deep in a dark passage they paused. The young, altruistic Script bearer alerted the wisest of their party that something awful lurked in the darkness.
“It is the Media. They were treated to the Script long before the rest. They both love and hate it as they worshipped it in solitude. Slowly, it destroyed their integrity. Their Precious.”
Then a much greater danger arose. “What is this new devilry?”
The wisest Showrunner exclaimed, “HOT D, fly you fools!” He struggled with the power of House of the Dragons, but fell into darkness.
Resting in sadness, the bearer of the Script was consoled by a coworker. “This task has been appointed to you. If you do not find a way, then no one will. To be a show-runner at Amazon, is to be alone.”
The brash Show-runner tried to take the Script, but realized his mistake and submitted a resume to Marvel.
Finally, the Script bearer resolved to continue his quest alone. However, he was not totally alone. His most loyal companion was by his side, the Super Fan. “ I will never stop, just like my girl Galadriel!”
Better written than the show I must say
Thank you much!
@@archlittle6067 you welcome
Thank you for this 😂👌🏽🙏🏼
Demoralizing fume….lol😂😂😂…. Like the one from Washington DC
Your reviews are far better than the actual show--- it actually delivers a payoff for having to watch the writing, plotting, acting travesty. Sandman is one of the rare shows that delivers to the fans.
When Guyladriel tells Daredevil “You have NOT seen what I have seen” & he’s like “Riiiggghhhht” it brought a tear to my eye
Lol. Thumb up for the chuckle.
The Seen is always right
When Gandalf said "its morbin time" and gollum said "its pizza time" I got goosebumps
Daredevil riding back barefoot was so empowering
When the Hobbits were distressed at their friends death, and their biggest concern was how they would get diversity quota compliant again, I cried like a baby.
This show made me root for Sauron and all the other antagonists. Not in a "The best villains are the ones who talk sense" kind of way but rather a "I want all the characters to die horribly" sort of way.
Like most horror films. The cast is usually so unlikeable you root for the killer, who does net the most success.
For real man. in the interrogation scene in the barn where Galadriel tells Ada that she is gonne keep him alive to let him see his race get wiped out before lastly killing ada himself Galadriel had 100% Psychopath villain vibes to me while Ada was very respectfull and intelligently spoken. now after the last Episode she is basically the sole reason why sauron returned to Middle earth to fuck shit up, even tho he was more than willing to just end the violence and live a happy life.
@@dbsommers1 I was just going to say that then we could classify this as a slasher. You beat me to the punch.
I always wondered what turned Sauron into a giant menacing evil...
Well now we know. It was from dealing with Karen Galadriel.
I felt that way in season 4 of American Horror Story. Wanted the detestable man baby in to slaughter everyone. Season 2 is a real gem imo, kept me trying until 4 lol. Every other season has been shit
All i can say is that to be given a chance to play with Tolkiens world and to fail this badly is like being given the Great Pyramid and use it to dry firehoses...
When She-Hulk tore off Voldemort's head and fed it to Shelob, that was truly the moment I realized how strong and how woman she is.
When shelob screamed "look like Meat's back on the menu boys!" It made me cry and I questioned myself on who's the baddies in the world we live in today.
Props to Bezos and Amazon for caring about the planet. Now that Tolkien is spinning so fast in his grave, we can hook him up to a generator for cheap and renewable electricity!
I’m dead after reading this
Dude. This... 😂
This show smelled almost as bad as Musks burnt hair cologne.
💩
@@NewNicator Tolkien is dead too
Tolkien reached .01c and is burrowing towards the earth's core
This show is the embodiment of the words "My expectations were low, but holy shit..."
Sooo true
When you watch videos of people that like and defend this show, it's immediately obvious how far they have to reach and twist things just to make the show acceptable. Then videos like this calling out the show for what it is, have so much evidence to prove their point it's like they barely even have to try.
The part where vice-admiral Galadriel flew her ship at Lightspeed and took out all of the 1st Order ships!!! That was truly inspirational.
I mean, on the bright side, compared to Guyladriel Admiral Holdo seems like a completely competent and effective leader.
The best thing that came out of this billion dollar production was your reviews.
Sauron was basically the only likable character in this story thanks to Amazon, he wanted to live a peaceful life and mend the damage he did as the Dark Lord but thanks to Galadriel constantly using him and then rejecting him; he’s going to go back to the old ways and try to conquer Middle Earth once more.
Then again if he does manage to put the Harfoots on the endangered species list, he would have unironically done more good for that world than Galadriel did throughout the entire season.
Sauron did nothing wrong
Galadriel was turned into a toxic girlfriend who led her troubled former alcoholic lover who was trying quit drinking to a bar and caused him to relapse.
Sauron the incel ...
@@I_Don_t_want_a_handle how dare you make me read that
It's a weird Amazon thing.
In the Man in the High Castle the Nazi dude (Smith) ended up being the only likable character. I think the ending sucked partially because they panicked when they realized they had written the main characters so poorly that everyone was starting to root for the nazi lol.
"There's no nuance or layers to their personalities."
Because this show has to reflect the world we live in today.
Ba-ba-ba-buuuurn
Because there're no layers to shit. It's just shit the whole way through
true the world today has no depth at all, this is why people enjoy cheap entertainment
There's no nuance of layers to the characters in Tolkien's LOTR either!
The world we live in today
when no longer technic is the porblem but, creativity and "coming up with a GOOD story"
This is a masterpiece of an insult. It's beautiful. This man sat for absolute hours, furiously crafting this 100% accurate summary of sins of these fools. While my knowledge of deeper lore of Tolkien is on the casual side and i didn't even catch quite a few of them... i understand completely. I am Polish and have been a fan of Sapkowski's work since i was about 10 i think? I believe these people used to be quietly executed untill maybe a few hundred years ago. Truly great video and thank you
The ring forging scene almost killed me. They didn't even need to melt her dagger, and she gave it up immediately lmao. And they didn't even remove the steel blade! They could have just taken like 1 inch off the end of the butt and used that. They didn't need like 5 pounds of gold and silver to add a few grams of Mithril. And they just melted it all together, and somehow made 3 rings that are clearly made of different metals... They wasted like 99.98% of the total metal. And they call that forging. No songs of power, no spells, no chants, they literally just made rings and that's it. They clearly had enough mithril to just make three mithril rings lol. They didn't even consult a high school level jewelry shop teacher before making this....
The forging scene is off too, as almost all are...just saw a cool Hawaiian guy on here, an expert forger explain why nearly all movies get this wrong...the metal should be white hot to shape it, not orange.
And let's not forget how woefully horrendous the gemstones look. They didn't even cut them to fit each ring, nor have purpose-made facets carved in them. When they placed Nenya next to the other two, I almost laughed as it was like a Jewellers ad in the style of Burger King.
Furthermore, the idea that they needed Mithril was bogus. That resource should've been aplenty because of the good relationship Celebrimbor had with the Dwarves. They made the rings not because the Elves were dying or fading, but because their realms were diminishing due to the marring of Arda after the wars of the 1st Age. It would've been far more compelling to see the elves making rings to solve all their concerns and sate their desires and build the tension that this may be a terrible hubris they are delving in. This whole season should've just been set in Eregion and Khazad-dun.
Robin Hood Prince of Thieves metallurgy
The whole season was largely padding and filler then in the last half-hour of this 9 hour snoozefest they suddenly cram in the making of the 3 Rings and damn if it isn't underwhelming (not too mention lore breaking). The rings are ugly as sin like the cheap gaudy jewelry big-haired grandmothers wore in the 70s and 80s that they got at Dollar General.

I’ve watched it all, because I was curious, and it’s extremely boring. Extremely… I despair just thinking about it. Wanted to fast forward so many times.
You may see a lot of action in the video here but the show does not feel like that at all. Episodes feel very sluggish.

Oh but I hear the defenders of this shit heap cry ‘bUt iT wAs aLL pArT oF hIs PLaN’
Except the show never told you any of that 😂
Celebrimbor: Alloys? You mean a severely basic form of metallurgy that humans figured out during the Bronze Age?
Not Sauron: Yeah.
Celebrimbor: Never heard of it.
Yeah, that scene was pretty dumb. Rewatching the scene, if you stretch your imagination a lot, Halbrand suggests using the right alloy to amplify the powers of mithril, something Celebrimbor hadn't considered because he assumed mixing the metals would dilute its power. If you look at it this way, Celebrimbor doesn't come out as dumb. Still, this is a lot of gymnastics we as the viewers need to make in order for this making a minimum sense.
In any case, independently of Celebrimbor knowing what an alloy is, Halbrand explains what an alloy is. Why? Because the writers believe the viewers are so dumb that they need to be explained. I guess it's the right move, because only dumb people can view this show non-ironically.
Doesn't surprise me, that he doesn't know what alloys are. The elves all use 3d printed weapons, and armour.
@@daz2742 Hey now, they had a real tight budget for each episode. They had to find a way to save money.

The hobbit trilogy: Had some serious flaws, but had a very likable main character, scary villains, decent enough action, brought back some beloved characters and were respectful to them.
Rings of power: had 2 positives in total, crazy unlikable main character, joke villains who are barely intimidating, horrible action choreography, and brought back beloved characters only to ruin them for modern politics.
It also had Eggsies! 😂😂

Funny how the dark lord Sauron, adar and the orcs are the most relatable and likable characters of the show. It's kinda impressive in a way.

Adar just wants a home for his often-abused orcs to live peacefully in, and Galadriel wants to genocide them.
It's called "sympathy for the devil" and it's done on purpose as part of the erosion of heroic ideals and basic standards. It's also predictable and boring.

This can go on the pile with that old D&D movie.
Its why prequels are an inherently bad idea imo. How the hell do you give the impression that characters you know for a fact are alive and well later on are in any danger at all?
Its as stupid as the prophecy genre (looking at you specifically, Mr Eddings) where the writing skill appears to be entirely based around plausibly getting the indestructible hero-on-the-way-to-godhood out of the impossible scrape youve written them into.
That said, Patrick Tilley's _The Amtrak Wars_ is awesome and should totally be on the shortlist for a TV show.
@@elLooto they’re not inherently bad, you just have to be a good writer. I realized this after watching better call Saul. You gotta focus on character writing, and showing how a character became who they are, not on “oh my god they might die !!”
@@Kali-bs7oj Its not just death, its that any failure cannot lead to a catastrophic consequence. Saul cannot screw up so badly he loses his license to practice law, for example, so we know that when hes doing his usual dodgy shit he must, ultimately, get away with it; no real danger, since he must still be practicing law when Walter encounters him in Breaking Bad. While Sauls story is an amusing collection of anecdotes and good light entertainment as a result, nothing of consequence can happen.
Its a ridiculously fine line between a failure so bad that it makes the character sit up and take notice enough to change their ways while still being plausibly recoverable and a shattering defeat. In RoP there is no way in hell Guyladriel has enough introspection, is way to self-righteous and pig-headed to make writing this outcome possible.
This isnt true in an original series; see The Walking Dead, which killed characters continually, and even main characters are not immune (Glenns exit was masterfully executed [please excuse both the pun and the spoiler], given his end in the comics, or Andrea and Carl who both had, when compared to the comics, premature exits). The characters maintain a plausible level of danger, even though its based on a body of work years more advanced than the show.
This 'lack of real danger' is even exploited by Patrick Tilley in his book series _The Amtrak Wars_ to make character exits much more shocking and impactful, although there he was writing a prophecy epic and not a prequel the same question of 'how much real danger are the characters actually in' still applies and the treatment Tilley gives it shows he was very aware of the problem.

@@skybrotha1042 Galadriel, Lady of Light was famous for one thing above all else. Her incredible gift to peer into the minds of people and determine their true worth. She famously does not get swayed by words or appearances. She can look past it all and determine your worth with a single glance. She got deceived in this show and you're coping so hard.
Before watching this series, I did not think that Sauron would show up at all in season 1 because I was told Sauron got no screen time in all of cinema except a few minutes in Shadow of War and some seconds in the trilogy and in the prologue for this show. As a result, I never bothered to look for or predict what character might be Sauron.
The fact that Galadriel, Celebrimbor, Gil-Galad, Elrond and NO ONE in Numenor knew that there hadn’t been a king in the Southlands for 1000 years other than the servant of Morgoth Sauron, and then embalking on a campaign to put a mysterious dude who they know lies and has links to Sauron back in charge of the Southlands.
Then once learning he was Sauron, after he directly influenced a major decision, they decide that he was actually onto something and then just let Sauron go back to the Southlands.
Make it make sense, because I can’t get my head around it.
One more part of established lore that the rings of power writers completly ignored is this:
In the source material sauron did approach the elves of eregion under the name of "Annatar" which roughly translates to "Master of gifts" and he brought many gifts. Especially gifts of knowledge. Celebrimbor at the time was the master of goldsmiths and he was esepcially thirsty for knowledge and skill seeking to rival even his grandfather Feanor in his craft. Feanor as a sidenote was maybe the most gifted elve in the entire history of the world, the creator of both the Palantiri and the silmarill. Sauron lived in eregion for almost 300 years before he approached them about forging the rings of power. And when he did he did as a respected teacher, a skilled craftsman and a benefactor to the elves of eregion. And so the elves forged the rings of power under saurons instructions and with his help. However, the three rings of the elves were forged by Celebrimbor alone and while sauron knew of their existance, he never even saw them once and that's how they were kept pure of Saurons influence.
The thing is, they literally *can't* use his guise as Annatar, because they don't have the rights to the Silmarillion.
