Last time I was this early, the line of Durin was still going strong! 💪🏼😂
Sad.
Pathetic and sad.
How dare you! The line is as strong as ever!!!!
I, personally, am a bit dubious of JRRT's revision by having Durin's spirit returning to his body instead of reincarnation. Durin VI was killed by, well, Durin's Bane, so I can't imagine that there would have been much of his body left to return to. I prefer JRRT's original version where it was Durin's spirit being reborn into a new body.
Suggestion for future podcast videos: can you put the source as a subtitle / caption when you are discussing a particular topic? I am wondering about the various sources of your narrative, and what level of canon they all pertain to! :)
Another excellent podcast-style video.
Just went out to buy snacks, come back and I've got a 52 minute video on dwarves. You sir, are a hero
You have to love when the universe just gives you a big smile. Enjoy your snacks and Tolkien lore!
My favourite series is back so early, it almost never left..
No freaking wayyyyyyyy!!! You sir, have made my day!
Other LOTR youtubers: a video everyday, same topics over and over, endless rants about ROP with hours long video for each episode, livestreams, collabs, "like and subscribe"
Darth Gandalf: posts when he wants, niche topics, original ideas, refuses to elaborate further, leaves.
In my more fanciful moments, I like to think that someday we will find the remains of Khazad-dûm or some other Dwarven city deep inside our mountains and that perhaps even a colony of Dwarves still survives there.
To think, when Durin established Khazad Dûm, it would stand for longer than almost any other city. Only Tirion stood longer than it, being almost the same age. It outlasted, Armenelos, Doriath, Gondolin and entire civilisations.
It's almost as old as the mountains themselves, both the city and the mountain are synonymous. It seems that even the mysterious reincarnation of Durin has some role within the mountain itself. The ancient homeland of Durin's folk has a mystical tie to its clan, being its lifeblood, something Durin's folk heard call them and even other dwarf clans to an extent. It's always fascinated me.
Is there ever any indication of How Deep The Dwarfs had to dig to awake the Belrog?😂
Very.
“Far too” I believe is the scientific terminology.
Very very deep, lol.
War of the ring idea:
What if Merry and Pippin failed to get the ents to do anything about Isengard's destruction of Fangorn. The battle of the Hornburg (Helm's Deep) would mostly play out the same way they do in the book and/or film, with the exception of the huorns not showing up.
What would be the future ramifications be in the war of the ring?
Dain wasn’t as lucky as his old man, you see Dain was a Marine and he was killed with all the other Marines at a place called Wake Island. All joking aside, excellent summary of the history of Durin’s Folk!
I love it when there's a new Darth Gandalf video, much more when it's a podcast.
Keep up the great work
Thanks for the video listening while I work my factory job
We need a film/TV show on the war in the north and the battle of Dale
Yes!
Bravo! This was enjoyable and interesting.
What is the Arkenstone? A diamond? A silmaril?
with the Longbeards taking in so many migrants from the other clans does that make Durin's folk the Dunedain of Dwarfdom?
It’s amazing how you knew what I was doing in my backyard right down to the shape (not body shaped, just sort of oblong).
What would have happened if Sauron survived his rings destruction? I believe that his body was inside Barad'dur when the ring was destroyed which is why he died for good. But what would happen if he was outside Barad'dur when it happened, being limited to his physical form from now on? Would the captains of the west hunt him down and kill him once and for all? Would he wage a final desperate war with whatever forces are left? Would he be betrayed and a civil war occur? I think LOTRO had an idea about this with the evil tree and the lady of poisons.
maybe you can make a video about the way the eastern dwarven clan are represented in LOTRO
I love your videos so much man, Tolkien would be proud.
This was amazing. You're a wizard.
I was about to suggest this video ideea
I'm loving the long videos
the holes are normal shape dw :)
Man Dwarves really had it bad
Nice topic!👌🏼
Great work!
Woho!
Do you think in an ideal version of Arda, where Morgoth didn't decide to be edgy, that the dwarven decline would have still happened?
I personally think so, albeit it would have been much slower rate.
Using screenshots from the Hobbit just reminded more how abysmally horrible those movies were.
I disagree with you. The hobbit movies werent the scale of TLOTR trilogy however they were great movies in their own right. They will never be replicated or overshadowed by any other attempt at capturing that story on film!
👍👍
