"Quite simply they're the best heavy infantry in Middle Earth." This is from a discussion with my 9 year old daughter last Sunday.
We also concluded that whilst Rohan provides the best cavalry in general, the Knights of Dol Amroth are the best heavy cavalry.
The Elves are the best archers and likely the best light infantry.
We couldn't decide on what Gondor/Arnor provides. Except perhaps the Rangers of the North and of Ithilien being excellent scouts.
I suspect that the discussion will continue when we finish watching The Battle of the Five Armies (extended) next weekend. 😊❤❤❤😊
The best well rounded army of course. Human versatility at its finest
Could you possibly make a video explaining why Sauron possessed the strongest will amongst others in Middle Earth, and how it was that others contested with that will. Like how does Denethor’s will compare with, Aragorn, or Gandalf, or even Galadriel, and how they compare to Sauron? Like what made Sauron’s will so unique and powerful, especially against other Maiar?
I second this request.
Let’s go another Dwarf video rock on Yoystan
Rock and Stone!
The ultimate stoics.
"I will make you something...even if the something you desire is war."
Not Moria, it's Khazad-dum!
Thank you, sir . Nice voice work on Tolkien tree video this week ( the video, probably not the record )
Dwarves and building…I see what you did there!
Wait, TOLKIEN made the dwarves? I thought it was Aule. I guess you never stop learning ;)
Norse mythology I think originally. We will get rich as dwarfs. ( a famous viking said once)
funny joke
Most of Thorin’s company had their names taken from an old norse poem, even Gandalf is inspired by Odin.
And he molded them out of silly putty
Make more videos like this one for more races. Really good!
I don't know why, but from all races in fantasy dwarves are my most favourite. Whenever I play an RPG, I play it as a dwarf first.
Keep up the great work, love your content!
Love your articles; you're doing fantastic work.
I definitely prefer Tolkien's Dwarves over the others I have found in older tales. While there are exceptions like the Petty Dwarves, in general I think they are very much a "ride or die" culture.
Many thanks for your considered, thoughtful content. I very much appreciate it. Keep it up.
Have a beer on me, Yost.
Any time you talk about us dwarves you will have my support.
I loved this. I laughed when you said Dwarves are always missing something.
"Will you follow me, one last time?"
Ah yes the Naugrim, a fan favorite to b sure. To it would seem these are the peoples that humans would b in ancient times, strong, stubborn greedy but also loyal and proud. Always loved how they were the adopted children of the maker; they weren't intended but were welcomed in the end 😊
Also love how Tolkien corrected all on the spelling of Dwarves instead of dwarf 😂
So they're a proud warrior culture with really good armor, who have lost their homeland and been scattered to the winds in a diaspora, but live in their own enclaves speaking their ancestral tongue among themselves? -- They're Mandalorians?
I was somehow expecting a different conclusion to your post than the one you made but I suppose that work’s just as well than what I was thinking 😊
Were you thinking Israel/Jews? @@patrickols
Actually, Mandalorians are very tall Dwarves.
Man Tolkien did change how Dwarves were going forward...and that also includes changing Dwarfs to Dwarves in the Oxford Dictionary!!!! *Feels weird typing the Wrong Version of Dwarves*
Thanks for this Interesting Video Melllon, Until why didn't Technology Advance in Middle Earth...Marion Baggins Out!!!
*Will be back from Holiday before the next time you'll Upload*
Thanks!
Thanks so much brother, I appreciate it!
I think exploring the literary elements of Tolkien's world (themes, languages, poems, writing styles, etc) is something less covered on other lotr channels
AND WE MINE MINE MINE TILL THE MORNING LIGHT
DIGGING, CRAFTING, CARRYING OUT THE ORE
SMELTING AT THE FORGE
NOTHING SHALL PREVAIL OVER THE GOLD
TILL THE KING AND ALL THE DWARVES HAVE COME BACK HOME.
Great Video! While we are on the topics of Dwarves, I had have some ideas for What if videos:
1. What if Gimli took the One Ring?
2. What if Dain Ironfoot accepted Sauron's offer?
3. What if Balin's colony in Moria still remained in tact and was still there during the events of the Fellowship of the ring?
4. What if Erebor never fell to Smaug?
5. What if the Dwarves lost the Battle of Azanulbizar?
6. What if Thrain never got captured by the Necromancer and made it to Erebor?
7. What if Thorin found the One Ring instead of Bilbo?
8. What if the Arkenstone was never found in the first place?
Wayne Harden has noted that the war-cry of the Dwarves is similar to the historical Gurkha cry, "The Gurkhas are upon you!"
In many ways the Dwarves portray the people the originated from It is often in the same way in sagas that something must be reclaimed and if you mix it with other big parts of Norse way of living you get something interesting. I think Tolkien did a great job taking Norse dwarfs mix in Norse culture and sprinkle some fantasy on top he left out some of the things about the Norse that he didn't feel was right for the dwarves and then started writing. It became a small tapestry woven together from all these things to become something new and unique culture
Dwarves are my favorite :D maybe because I’m short & stout & hairy myself lol. Also I love beer and salted pork!!!
Fun Fact: a lot of Norse Mythology scholars are debating if Dwarves and Dark Elves were supposed to be synonymous with each other.
Your analysis here was decent, but ultimately it came up quite short. 😉
"All things were divided that day, except the Elves". This says to me that Dwarves fought with Sauron in the battle of Dagorlad.
Whose idea was it to make Gimli talk like a Scot in the movies that’s what I’d like to know.
It might have been the actor's idea: he had it in his repertoire, suggested it, Jackson liked it. I think he is a Scot anyway, but sounds more posh than Gimli.
@@DavidOfWhitehills Jonathan Rhys-Davis was born in England to Welsh parents but was raised in Tanzania where his father worked as a police officer.
Hearing Tolkiens Dwarves are better than the modern edition of them and I currently like them more than most other fantasy races now
Dwarves or Elves?
Dwarves for me!
Thus cannot be borne ! ( rips his beard )
Huh. Are there elves in the south and the east? Like where the dwarven houses we don't know much about from?
😊
😍😍✅✅
Give me a good Dwarven reason and sod the rest.
Great video but very distracting calling Balin "Baaly in". On a positive note if you want really good Tolkienish Dwarves. Look into the Dwarfs in the Warhammer Old World setting.
Now it’s time to decide if it’s offensive that tolkien said they’re like Jewish people, lol.
Jk, I know he said it in admiration, but still it’s funny that he said that
1:22 - Those aren't dwarves! They're "magical creatures"!
Where do Dwarves go when they die? You have covered Elves and Men. It may be unknowable.
damn i hope elizabeth calvert hasn't fallen on hard times...anyone know if she still does superchat on every Office Hours?
