Literally makes an insane difference to how they look. Elves should have beautiful ornate clothing, and the armor was way better in the AI version. Also elves have long hair.
@@BreeNix It's a plot point that elves hate change. It's how Sauron tricked them in the first place. The Three Rings explicitly give them the power to prevent anything from changing in their local environments. Once they found a look they liked, it's basically certain they'd stick with it forever.
I complained from day 1 that the costumes were absolutely terrible. But this side by side comparison is just painful to watch. Its like comparing clothes from someone who actually gave a shit to a literal potato bag. What the hell were Amazon thinking? Where did all the money go?
The AI armour actually looks protective and properly contoured (form fitting?). The cloth stuff the majority of the characters wear in the ROP never looked convincingly protective. This really highlights how ill-fitting all the ROP outfits look. I hate how they massacred my boy Celebrimbor, particularly as a fan on Shadow of Mordor, and that green nightdress is hideously vulgar. The AI version looks well designed, something to wear outside as opposed to sleep in. Not one person on the billion dollar series gave a rat's behind.
the armor made by the AI just look so much better, love the metal breast plate the AI made, compared to those horrible manboob armor that the Numenoreans wear from Amazon . I mean , just look at that armor at 00:13 the AI did a better job than Amazon with their 1 Billion dollars budget. Tar Miriel is wearing a printed fabric armor on the inside just look so fake and cheap lol 😂
@@humansnotbots-y8l of course its subjective, but most people said that the armor design of Amazon RoP is just horrendous, the armor design by AI is just an improved version
This is one thing I truly do not understand. The Amazon show had a budget that dwarfed Peter Jackson's by order of magnitude, and yet wound up with props that wouldn't look out of place in my kids' school play. What did they spend all the money on?
What was the prompt? "Make RoP costumes half-decent?" or "Make RoP costumes out of the funds that should've gone to costumes instead of coke and money laundering?" I also just now noticed that "Elrond's" shawl is in tatters, lol.
Man this video made me upset for all the right reasons. I love all things LOTR and middle earth so I don't bash the show but this video is absolutely spot on with the costumes and armour.
$1B? Sure, special effects aren't cheap. But $1B? Do you know of Ed Wood? There's a 1994 Tim Burton movie about Ed Wood. I'm not sure how accurate the movie is, but ... Ed Wood is known as "the worst" movie director of all time. And in Tim Burton's film, he is depicted as something of a grifter. His scheme was to pitch an idea for a movie at a studio. Then get a budget to make the movie, and then spend that budget. It was never about producing something good, or anything at all. It was about getting the budget to spend. I wonder how much of that is going on here. The crooked thing is, you can tell that a good number of people that worked on this actually did care and put in the effort. But the ones in charge of scripts and decisions and overall vision likely primairily cared about the money mill.
на самом деле броня с сиськами для Галадриэль, которую предлагает ИИ - это бред, давно уже все это обсудили и доказали, что такая броня убила бы того, кто ее носит, потому что все удары меча в грудь не рикошетили и соскакивали бы в бок, а соскальзывали бы прям между сисек в сердце, пробивая броню и убивая человека. такую броню выдумали разработчики фентези игр для женских персонажей просто для красоты, но это не практично :,D
Actually, no. There is "consensus " on this because its STEEL and steel are a rather good protector against swords and arrows. Plate armor was also commonly made with a slim waist so you would get the exact same "problem" in the waist area as the boob area. Is it worse? Sure, I can agree to that. Is it horrible? No, because steel is steel.
Costumes were the least of the issues......
Peter Jackson's Elven armor designs remian undefeated even by A.I or 1 billion dollars

Definitely!
I’m sure Elves didn’t always have long hair. Just like normal people, hairstyles change over centuries. I think it would be the same with Elves.

The AI dresses for Galadriel are beautiful. They really look like something an Elven lady of her status would wear.

And change the races to white, LotR didn't have a single minority, and the two most important women were fair skinned blue eyed
No because then they wouldn't be able to use cheap tshirt prints ordered on Amazon.
AI costumes look so rich and pristine
That was my goal 🙏

Honestly it looks like they are wearing plastic shirts lol
It’s just a difference in design really
Yeh it’s pretty much the point :)
Different design yes but one is bad design (Amazon) the other is good design ( AI)
@@rio20d subjective !

Sadly the AI cannot undo Granny Goodman as "Celebrimbor" ... nor the psychopath Harfoots... nor Gandalf as Meteor man.
Next: better script with AI lol
Lol
If only AI replaced writers..... director.... actors........
Like playing Bethesda games with mods 😀😀
It had so much potential
It sure did

God dam it, Now I want to play battle of middle earth again Q_Q
The only one of these where I think the AI looks better and/or makes more sense is Celebrimbor
Fair enough. Celebrimbor as a whole is just wrong though.
Absolute based bfme soundtrack
Amazing soundtrack 🙏

Aragorn's ancestors are still are not suppose to have beards...
🤷♂️
I like the ai cloth for the elves, but prefer the scale mail armour
Fair enough!
People will find anything to complain about…

Like the music use both Lord of the Rings and Baldur's Gate
I mean nice idea ... but the resume is just - give everyone plate armour?
