16:40 it's probably a vial of sauron's blood (we see him cut his hand a moment before) but since we are in that "dream" sequence celebrimbor thinks it's mithril. That also could explain why the 9 were so powerful on the minds of their wearers if sauron's own blood was in them
@@gorthaurthecat8980 thats what im thinking. He uses his blood on a group that can be even more corrupted. And the blood in the trailers Celebrimbor has on his hands is the "Mithril"
One thing which I love is the more Durin becomes obsessed with greed, the better, and happier he looks. It's a stark contrast with how little he was smiling the first season.
little correction here: "the gift of the valar" is actually death for the race of men. no one really knows what happens to the soul of men after death but it's implied by those who believe to be a heavenly place. the elves are quiet about it but are sometimes jealous of it. it's a really interesting idea from Tolkien reflecting his Catholic beliefs in a way.
The scene at the end where Sauron deceives Celebrimbor might be my favourite moment from the series so far. It’s so messed up, it really makes you feel for Celebrimbor. Could talk hours about Annatar/Celebrimbor in this show but to me it’s just outstanding tbh.
@Jxckk0 I'm fine with changed but pointless changes like that are just problematic, no problem with new characters or compressing he timeline etc etc but it's just causing problems down the line and I don't need to read the books since I already know
@anotherhappylanding4746 how is it ruined? Honestly, it doesn't actually matter of the ordering, only that Sauron did not interfere. Personally, having the three made first makes more sense to me, because it makes the others being made under duress and deception feel like a gradual corruption of Celebrimbor. The three are perfect and made to heal, the seven cause avarice, and the nine fully corrupt.
@@RampantFirefly disagree, they make the seven and nine first and then celebrimbor in his arrogance makes the 3 without saurons knowledge and they are still corrupted because they were made with saurons techniques and then that's why he sacks region, in rage, just completely unecessary change
fun fact: the change from day to night at 17:02 was practical, not cgi, the video from the bts is really awesome. This show's production value is insane!
@@Tangerator Also, the Balrogs are Maiar, as is Sauron. They take different forms. There's also a few other miscellaneous Maiar from the Legendarium who appeared at various times throughout history. The good ones generally take a physical form resembling Elves, which Sauron does here to enhance his deception.
Not gonna lie, whenever I saw Sauron this episode I was screaming "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"- what he's doing to Celebrimbor (and how he's playing Mirdania) is just too much to handle. Also, did you notice how, when Adar brings out Morgoth´s crown, how Galadriel tries to move as much as possible away from it? I thought that was a nice detail. The conflict of Durin seeing his father so dependent on the ring reminds of family members watching a love one succumb to addition. Not sure how we´ll all go through the devastating drama of the last two episodes....
Sauron and Gandalf are both Maiar. Very hard to kill. As we saw, Sauron got stabbed countless times and basically reformed himself from a pool of black blood. Gandalf fell throught the earth for what seemed like eons for him fighting a Balrog and came back. What I don't understand is how Saruman ended up dying by being stab in the back with a knife by his mortal servant and fell from his tower. He should have been a lot harder to kill.
The fact they shot the Great Deceiver scene with the illusion over Celebrimbor IN CAMERA is insane. Some may not like the writing or plot but it cannot be argued that this show is a technical triumph, and a visual masterpiece
ehhhhh sorta. the reality is the only scenes worth watching are the sauron scenes. that in and of itself makes the entire show a failure from start to finish. it's a flex, but not the flex i think you're trying to illustrate. the show ultimately will be considered a debacle and an insult to the original works. decent sauron scenes tho.
@SilvershotStudios that's good bro. It's wild out here in the reaction world. Everyone just seems to follow Critical Drinker opinion and not think Critical themselves. I think it's impressive to have that much influence but it's sad so many people blindly follow another human that's no different from them.
Easiest way to explain the Valar: They’re archangels. Each taking dominion over specific aspects of mortal life and death. Nature, craft, war, sea, air, order and chaos, as examples. Beneath them are lesser angels called Maiar. Corrupted Maiar under Morgoth became Balrogs or dark spirits. In Sauron’s case, he retained much of his former powers and chose to appear fair for as long as that power remained open to him.
7:18 . The line Tom said to strange: " Many that die deserve life, some that live- deserve death" . That's the line Gandalf said to Frodo in first movie where they were talking of Bilbo sparing Gollum.
They actually did catch it 😄 Eric makes a face of recognition and looks down the table at the others before taking down a note. They then bring it up in the discussion where they directly mention it (and how Tom is training Gandalf) and Calvin quotes it ^^
Interesting -- I wonder if your off-hand comment about Miriel's blindness being the reason she would survive the sea snake is actually true. Seeing the creature's eye close up, it may have realized that she could not see it herself. A bit like the Greek myth of Medusa, gazing upon the snakes spells your doom, but if you are unable to gaze upon them, your life will be spared. A fascinating theory to consider.
but then it suggests that she was spared just for being blind, not because she is worthy of the position or something that actually confirms she should be it.
I'm legit confused on all this hate, like are we watching the same show. I'm convinced they just following others sheepishly not forming their own opinions. I've seen alot of bad shows especially recently, this aint one of them.
@@daurydavis3983it's not that tho. If you going to make diverse show, then make it make sense like certain ethicinities from certain places because that is what happens but golabalsiation existed. The dwarves should be very pale. Rhun should be Arabian or whatever ethnicity. Elves are the same race. And galderiel is just such a one dimensional character that's so dumb but definitely entertaining. If you can't see how dumb so many decisions are then Idk. How an earth did elves not manage to see an army of orcs coming...
@@Alfie-ps6ll Seems to me that you enjoy your lore in a segregated world perhaps that's how you feel inside. I feel bad for you if skin complexion triggers you and ruins your experience enjoying content.
Also Arondir caught Orcs doing something specific. Thats what the map was for, youll see in the coming episodes. Lets just say they have a task meant to help the siege.
Given Tom's 2 lines to the Stranger in this episode I am disappointed in being almost 100% sure that he's Gandalf. I could have written off some of the other stuff that happened as being coincidence but telling him he needs to be a "Servant of the Secret Fire" and the line about choosing who gets to live and die cements that he will become Gandalf.
I keep having to remind myself that THIS Celebrimbor isn't a bloodthirsty wraith who went through Hell. It is nice however to not have this Celebrimbor shouting every 5 mins about the Palantir lmfao
Charlie Vickers , goes a litle to carry the series and improves himself episode by episode. No horrible but not perfect episode. The multi- storyline script doesnot give the right time for the centrical story , to build itself, trying to go Game of thronish multi task plotlines, but ...nah!! Sauron and Dwarfs steal the show once again. Didn't expect so much improvasion to the two Durins. Impressive . Galadriel , as a character , goes back in the curtain , step by step . Honorable entry, the 6th ,we left only two to the finale. Hope the last will be a little more in duration , not only 72 min. Music is on point again . Time to see the final wrap up . Bravo to Bear Mc Creary he gave his musical genious again.
I am honestly not sure how much the source material will matter for this story. The show is based on the LOTR lore, yes but they’ve made a lot of changes that I actually can’t say for sure if Durin the younger will wear a ring lol. Changes to the orcs and elves lore throwing me for a huge loop lol I mean we all watched The Hobbit… we know how it ends so I guess Durin the younger does something wrong.
The quote that Tom gave the stranger is the same quote that Gandalf told to Frodo in LoTR. We all assumed who the stranger was but now its pretty much confirmed its Gandalf.
I still hold out hope that it isn’t. This quote doesn’t do anymore than “Always follow your nose.” In season 1 did. That basically confirmed it was Gandalf, yet I still hope. 😂
Actually they changed the quote, turning from a warning about judgement and whether we should judge people to die, to one about, I guess, the needs of the many outweigh the need to save your friends? Not only weird but so not Tolkien, and given that a key theme of the LOTR is where Frodo’s pity of Gollum actually redeems him in the eyes of Eru to actually interfere and fulfill the task of destroying the ring, kinda important. Also, Tom Bombadil would never act this way. He is oldest and all knowing, and does not care about the troubles of the world. It is why they rejected the idea of giving him ring to hide in the Council of Elrond. As with all things in this show they feel it necessary to literally change the nature of all the characters, not one portrayal in this series is consistent with characters in all his works. The fact they simply ignore the character that Tolkien wrote in the adventures of Tom Bombadil is just icing on the cake, they are just using the names of people and places and trying to shoehorn modern ideas in a story that was written in the tradition of the ancient myths of Europe with a keen interest to establishing an English (uk) mythology. The shire is rural England personified, filled with seemingly unimportant people to outsiders, but actually are a stern and sturdy folk who end up saving the world. These writers are not only terrible adapters but their depiction of fantasy is so lost. They don’t understand the genre so how could they think they had the chops to tell a modern interpretation. The problem is not the DEI inclusions as there is plenty of room in the story of the 2nd age to include such characters…Tolkien actually has many different “races/tribes” of elves some who made it to Valinor and others who never saw the light of the two trees. Numenor was a gift of the Valar to the THREE tribes of men who opposed Morgoth. Also the men of the twilight includes Easterlings, Southrons and Haradrium all who likely were deceived by Sauron with the Rings of Power. They could easily have included all sorts of races as the story of the 2nd age is so broad and It just didn’t need to be this bad.
When you said that the eagle picked him no the eagle wasn't it was that the people inside were rooting for him when they thought the eagle picked him but the eagle was looking at her. Also you guys are still wrong he isn't gandalf the two wizards to only go in into Rhun in the second age were the two wizards
I assumed the sea monster was the same one since they were nearish Numenor when they were found by them in s1 right? Also for Aaron, I believe it’s more a case of the Valar being a more Elven thing but the “faithful” people of Numenor have Elvish ties (such is their divide with the new king currently who is more against it, they cast out the faithful king in s1 and “elven stone” was the issue in ousting Miriel) that’s why his dude was like…well if Elendil is a faithful then we could use the valar ways to see if he should die or not. I hope I’ve understood that correctly!
The only thing with orcs attacking Eregion is that there's no one really there which we care about other than Celebrimbor. At least till Elrond gets there. With these orcs attacking The Southlands led by Adar, I was afraid for it's people. Here I can't quite say I'm invested.
I hope this show not cancel after this season as the Trump supporters are complaining about it because of wokeness and that the chars are not all white.
Galadriel (the character - elfvish, lived so long) was written to have 3 facial expressions and rotates them depending on mood - youve exactly dictated how Tolkein wanted her written! Amazing!
@henrietta9206 that's some cope. How a character is written through text is a bit different to how it translates on screen. Additionally, there's a difference between being a stoic elf and being completely unable to act. I think you're confusing what Tolkien wanted with what we actually got.
@@mupsoftarenand Sauron has never manipulated metal before... forging is something he has no knowledge of. . . like at all. He should learn that. Could be helpful. oh well.
the way you guys cut the video like that, i don't like it. please, don't cut the video like that! i can't see the parts i want to see. about how you guys react. for example, when adar blows the trumpet in front of the orc army. and, there are still some more. I don't enjoy it.
The reaction has to be edited. They have to follow the '10 minute fair use' rule that UA-cam has. If the guys showed everything then the video would get taken down .
Sad to see how much support this show is getting from Blind Wave, A show that has horrible writing, pathetically boring and incompetent characters, a lack of worldbuilding that makes any sense, a bastardization of everything Tolkien stood for and wrote about. Thank god the ratings for the show are down and hopefully it gets cancelled after season 2 or 3.
Sad to see folks have a different opinion to you? You don't like it and that's fine but to find folks who do enjoy it and shit on their opinions and enjoyments? Just sad my friend...
@@katieee1203 Excuse me i'm enjoying myself here commenting on this dogshit tv show and reactions to said horrible tv show and i'm finding it quite rude and a little toxic how you find my enjoyment sad simply because I have a different opinion than you. I'm gonna need you to do better Katie cause frankly it's just sad my friend...
yea they just dont want to piss off the left. most of their viewers are that crowd. to everyone jumping down your throat... they are just small minds who cant understand good writing or acting. they dont understand that JRR Tolkien wrote an entire legendarium and we should respect his works. These idiots are fckn pathetic and will fail their own children's upbringing.

That quote by Adar “Only blood can bind” comes to mind. It might be the thing that binds the wearers to Sauron
That's good. I didn't even think of that. I just assumed that he had some mithril dust leftover.
Yeah its not Mithril. Its his blood. Someone else said it but "only blood can bind" its just part of the illusion.
That’s why the nine have more link with Sauron even without the one ring

Also for Aaron, I believe it’s more a case of the Valar being a more Elven thing but the “faithful” people of Numenor have Elvish ties (such is their divide with the new king currently who is more against it, they cast out the faithful king in s1 and “elven stone” was the issue in ousting Miriel) that’s why his dude was like…well if Elendil is a faithful then we could use the valar ways to see if he should die or not. I hope I’ve understood that correctly!
The creature in season 1 was more like a whale with side fins.
The only thing with orcs attacking Eregion is that there's no one really there which we care about other than Celebrimbor. At least till Elrond gets there. With these orcs attacking The Southlands led by Adar, I was afraid for it's people. Here I can't quite say I'm invested.
Fortunately that’s not the point of what’s happening so it doesn’t really matter. He’s setting it up to have the elves fight Adar.
I’m invested in Mirdania.
I like show but just give us more crazy creatures more magic moments and a bit longer dialougues I will be happy😂
@@auroraprs9133 u tryna put these actors through hell lol
@@ThrghmyEyeZZ actors? you think this is acting?
I would have preferred the transition to the carnage in Eregion happen as soon as Celebrimbor closed the door.
Just fly there... .come on guys be better
I hate Nori's scream 😂. Its so unpleasant. Its like AaAaAaAaA
I can hear this comment and I agree
God this show is SO good
He is Blue Wizard and not Gandalf.
then the writing is more dogshit than ever because it keeps quoting peter jacksons gandalf
He is a grand elf
good that you guys cut out the entire plot of the harfoots haha :D
The harfoots are great
@@pseud0nul nah, they boring in my eyes.
@@pseud0nul no. they are not
I hope this show not cancel after this season as the Trump supporters are complaining about it because of wokeness and that the chars are not all white.
hope they cancel the show because it spits in JRR Tolkien's works and JRR is boring and bad.
the actress who plays galadriel cannot act one iota. she has 3 facial expressions and rotates them depending on the mood.
Galadriel (the character - elfvish, lived so long) was written to have 3 facial expressions and rotates them depending on mood - youve exactly dictated how Tolkein wanted her written! Amazing!
@henrietta9206 that's some cope. How a character is written through text is a bit different to how it translates on screen. Additionally, there's a difference between being a stoic elf and being completely unable to act. I think you're confusing what Tolkien
wanted with what we actually got.
'Blind' is a very accurate way to describe their way of viewing this bastardization of Tolkiens work
How can that be Morgoth’s crown?
Sauron had it resized to fit him.
Adar said, it was reforged
How can it not be?
@@Persephone_Personified Because Morgoth is 30 feet tall with a head the size of a SUV.
@@mupsoftarenand Sauron has never manipulated metal before... forging is something he has no knowledge of. . . like at all.
He should learn that.
Could be helpful.
oh well.
Worst show ever made.
the way you guys cut the video like that, i don't like it. please, don't cut the video like that! i can't see the parts i want to see. about how you guys react. for example, when adar blows the trumpet in front of the orc army. and, there are still some more. I don't enjoy it.
The reaction has to be edited. They have to follow the '10 minute fair use' rule that UA-cam has.
If the guys showed everything then the video would get taken down .
It's their reaction, not yours....
God this show sucks
So if your not a fan of the show why search for reactions to said show you hate?
@@katieee1203 He needs something to do while mom changes his sheets.
yes
@@XenFayed the next time you choose to speak. dont. you are bad at it
@@katieee1203 because he needs to spread good taste to people wth bad taste.
Sad to see how much support this show is getting from Blind Wave, A show that has horrible writing, pathetically boring and incompetent characters, a lack of worldbuilding that makes any sense, a bastardization of everything Tolkien stood for and wrote about. Thank god the ratings for the show are down and hopefully it gets cancelled after season 2 or 3.
Sad to see folks have a different opinion to you? You don't like it and that's fine but to find folks who do enjoy it and shit on their opinions and enjoyments? Just sad my friend...
@@katieee1203 Excuse me i'm enjoying myself here commenting on this dogshit tv show and reactions to said horrible tv show and i'm finding it quite rude and a little toxic how you find my enjoyment sad simply because I have a different opinion than you. I'm gonna need you to do better Katie cause frankly it's just sad my friend...
yea they just dont want to piss off the left. most of their viewers are that crowd. to everyone jumping down your throat... they are just small minds who cant understand good writing or acting. they dont understand that JRR Tolkien wrote an entire legendarium and we should respect his works. These idiots are fckn pathetic and will fail their own children's upbringing.
@@katieee1203 na its sad to see dogshit opinions praised. because then we get MORE dogshit shows. you need have shame.
Are comments here just bots or what the fuck is happening
You were deceived lol
