I really think his The History Of Anakin Skywalker is his magnum opus, that one never fails to make me emotional. In this tho seeing Rings Of Power popping up all the time just took me out of it entirely, it feels like such a dispassionate and disrespectful project only made to get more money out of the franchise has no place in these videos filled with passion. They shat on the Silmarillion so hard
To have started it with Tolkien . Absolutely perfect. Beautiful. Masterpiece. I truly cannot thank you enough for such a moving tribute to something i hold so close to my heart. Thank you. 🙏
We recived A LOT of star wars content and i loved a lot of your videos (i missed some of them) , but we've never got something for lotr and i'm so excited!
You know, a common theme among the Elves is their lament for the changing world. I always wondered what that was like, to the see the world begin and end around you, until eventually it fades and you feel such terrible sadness. This made me feel what that must be like. It's such a sad, but beautiful thing, to watch.
my GOODNESS, what a gem! So well put together. Thank you for sharing this!! (and I'll second the Elendil/Aragorn parallel, that made me shriek out loud about editing haha)
Hell yeah man you killed it. I would love to see a Dune version of this. You find ways to make everything so much more emotional, hell you made the prequels emotional!
A very similar video for Dune is underway, but I'm waiting for the show to air in hopes that it may explore some themes from the books that the movies didn't.
@@SWFT_edits I’ll be there when you release it! Your Darth Vader video still makes me emotional every time I watch it! I haven’t seen anyone do as much justice to my favorite character in all of media like you did so I have so much confidence that you’ll do the same with another one of my favorite characters
Some how you condensed everything into ten minutes. This is a master piece of editing and you're own story telling. ((Look you made rings of power for all of it's flaws seem like a master piece and that's no easy feat XD)). This was brilliant.
Great first Lord of the rings edit! Brilliant idea to use footage from the Tolkien film for the beginning and end. Makes it really stand out and unique. Also good on you for using rings of power footage. Show isn’t perfect and could be better but as a fan it’s still got some good stuff in there. Specifically the shots you used in this video are really great and you blended them perfectly with the movies. Another great video SWFT, you’re one of the best edit channels.
I agree, Rings of Power is visually beautiful and I don't personally mind some of the choices they made in adaptation. People forget Jackson's movies changed tons as well. In my mind the only issue with Rings of Power is that the writing is not always engaging.
extremely extremely epic, I'm always a huge fan of your edits. My only small complaint here is the elven song from around 1 minute in is in a completely different key from the background music which is a tad jarring. Might just be me tho. Anyway stay classy SWFT big respect
That's fair, I agree that it sounds a bit off. I couldn't really find a background track that was an exact match, and I also didn't want to use for original to avoid copyright.
Through Tolkiens' work you can see our world: Bad things happen, because there are evil walking among us, but the evil can do NOTHING against the simple folk, who are in love and hope by the Holy Spirit from God. May God Bless Tolkien and the LOTR.
Dearest SWFT I have no doubt that your fan edit, on top of being gorgeous, would be able to piece together important Middle-earth plot points too if you so chose. 🎉 It aches my heart as a Harry Potter fan to think that it is mostly impossible to do that for the Hp fandom with just the footage because of the honestly sh!te excuses for “adaptation” we got since the third movie. - Like, you would be able to make a short fan video that spans the whole 6 Middle-earth films about where the Ring went through from Gollum to Bilbo to Frodo&Sam, and how Bilbo sparing Gollum’s life led to Gollum taking the Ring down into the Fire… whereas you won’t be able to do “Plot summary” fan videos for even “stand alone” Hp movies starting from PoA 😂😢
Hi, glad you enjoyed the video! :) I usually do not add burnt-in subtitles to videos that include a lot of speech in other languages so those translations are highlighted. UA-cam captions should be available in a few days though!
Love it. I would recommend different music though, at least for the first two parts. I'm still salty by how trash the tv show is and that first guy singing is just as trash. Other than that, love it. I love lord of the rings so much and it was really cool to see them all together.
this video alone gives evidence of God almighty, Jesus Christ, Elohim and many other names used for the Lord. This world was created by one man, imagine what the creator of that man is like, more beautiful, gracious and loving than we could ever imagine. Jesus Christ died for us and wants a relationship with each and everyone of us! Repent and believe the Gospel and you shall be saved from eternal death. I love you and Jesus Loves you!
First of all, Rings of Power isn't that bad. The second season was very enjoyable. Secondly, the video's narrative needed clips from the First Age and the Second Age, and those aren't depicted elsewhere.
Even if rings of power does not represent Tolkien’s work well, it’s still the only good footage we have of the 1st/2nd ages. It’s not perfect, but it still has some pretty dang good shots

This was your magnum opus. You brought Dr. Tolkien’s whole world together in 10 minutes and it was brilliantly assembled.
Thank you, very happy to hear that! :)

@@brachialtick6539 Yeah, ROP is part of the ME adaptation series now though. I think S2 did the story really good though.

To have started it with Tolkien . Absolutely perfect. Beautiful. Masterpiece. I truly cannot thank you enough for such a moving tribute to something i hold so close to my heart. Thank you. 🙏
The greatest of tributes for the greatest franchise! Really appreciate the inclusion of Tolkien in the vid. Absolutely stunning, my friend!
Thanks, mate! :)
The flash from Elendil to Aragorn drawing Narsil (if that's how you spell it) was deeply appreciated. Excellent work all around.
Man this one actually gave me goosebumps. LOTR is easily one of the best trilogies ever made
Thank you for this!!! I was crying almost throughout the whole tribute. Truly a masterpiece. Tolkien’s work is legendary.

Not gonna lie I am crying while I watch it. It is such an amazing and lovable universe. And it was a huge part of my childhood.
As one of Tolkien’s greatest fans, I want to thank you for bringing him to more people
A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to
Well I'm not a Wizard
Amazing work, it's beautiful. Video like this proves that Rings of Power has the spirit of Tolkien in it, despite the changes.
RoP is high-budget tourist fanfiction slop and will never be canon.
It doesn't, it's only made to get more money off a popular franchise
@@brachialtick6539 you mean, like every single live action adaptation? Oh, the horror...
@@codeforge3301 fan fiction can't make profit, get a dictionary
@@brachialtick6539 It makes money because it's a success. Because people like it.

This brought back the nostalgic feeling of my childhood; growing up with LotR.. This truly is The Tribute to rule all others.
Lotr is one of the best project of cinematic history
One of the best edits for LOTR , man great job for this 🔥
Cried at the end, me and my mum loved LOTR sm, and her passing this year really hit home in this wonderful tribute to Tolkien's world, thank you :)
So sorry for your loss, I'm glad this resonated with you. :)
Definitely not what I was expecting, but boy that was insane! I had goosebumps the whole time! Definitely the best tribute to Tolkien I've seen!
Such a wonderful travel and a great adventure in a fantasy context.
Incredible tribute! Really just fantastic work all around!
this is probably my fav video of yours, stunning work SWFT!!
absolute chills. middle earth means so much to me, this was such a magical tribute.
Love that you included the clips from Tolkien
Amazing as always - what a treat! Thank you.
Absolutely BRILLIANT. I love this so much. Truly beautiful.
Breathtaking
🤯🌋🎆🕯️👏 Phenomenal Tribute! Really Needed this Gratitude 🙏
That’s a masterpiece we’ve been looking for
Glorius. I have no words. Nearly brought me to tears.
This captured the feeling of the Lord of The Rings (in part 1) perfectly, but the rest just oversteps.
Outstanding edit, Oscar worthy 👏🏻👏🏻this person deserves a round of applause
Incredible man, completely different take on Tolkien's work : ) Great work man
Frigging beautiful! No words yet and yet again lmao.
The way you captured all of the beauty of the films and show! Perfection!
Thanks man! :)
This is majestic.
We’re so back
This was so good
This gave me more than goosebumps, i love it
This was amazing

EPIC! For Middle Earth ⚔️

Some scenes are from Rings of Power?
Yes!

Never again put RoP with Lotr trilogy or hobbit. Don't desecrate the holy trilogy with amazon garbage, in terms of editing its beautiful.
Ich denke nicht, dass es Herr der Ringe so darstellt, wie es wirklich ist. Leider
horrible song choice in the beginning yikes
Rings of Power is a joke. It's an insult to Tolkien
surprised that you haven't mentioned the "Tolkien rolling in his grave" bit too. That's like a staple of you haters
