    Sauron, the dark lord himself, failed to impress a bunch of orcs so badly they killed him with his own hat.

      To be fair, Sauron was trying to fill the shoes of his far more formidable master. Sauron is basically a powerful wizard, melkor was a literal god. No doubt the orcs, who melkor created with his own hands, felt like Sauron wasn’t worthy.

      I think ths cast isn't the problem here. Yeah, a few of them looks dope but actors playing Cirdan, Durin 4th, Elrond (to some extent), Disa (even if she is made up character), Miriel and Adar, were good ones. I find that its what they say base on script that sometimes make them a lame character. So, yes the problem lies on the writers, which makes the life of the cast hard. But the few ones I mentioned, by their performance make the show a bit good in a way.

    If you listen to Andy Sirkis reading of the Silmarilian, he reads a letter Tolkien wrote to his friend. He writes, that he hates allergoies, and he wants his stories to be "just stories", and not conveying a hidden agenda. On the other hand, his greatest wish was, to create a fantasy world, from which other writes would take inspiration, and write new stories, that would make his world bigger. Not sure he actually wanted anyone to re-tell his own stories, and "enrich" them with so many hidden agendas though.

    • @mimmim13aiv
      @mimmim13aiv 11 днів тому

      Not exactly. Tolkien "hates" allegories only when they're there for the sake of being there. A story should be told to only convey a story. Yet, LOTR is full of allegories even though it was never Tolkien first intention to write the story around those allegories in mind. Or so he says. That's more in line with its letter. Tolkien doesn't hate allegories. He hates a story which is built around an allegory. That's bit different imo.
      Just like ROP cast and story is built around multiples allegories (diversity, western evilness, woman power and son on). But not primarily around the Middle Earth and the characters arc.
      Anyway, as much as I love Tolkien's writing and world building, the man didn't love many things outside his own work. So, I take his comments with a grain of salt. Not sure he's actually like people to deep dive in building more LOTR stories.

If a writer were to actually build a story within Tolkiens world, even if it took place in Khand, and had 100% respect for existing lore, I advise they get permission from the Tolkien estate first.

In contrast, the RoP series by Amazon has NOTHING to do with Tolkien except for some names and places. It is really sad.
