One of the few people who actually reacted to Tom Bombadil and Gandalf singing, aka my favourite moment of this show, just for how unexpected and beautiful it was.
I loved this season and just to let you know that is how Celebrimbor gets killed in the book more or less when Sauron said the door is still open and Galadriel said the door is shut it reminded me of when Galadriel told Frodo he knows my mind but he doesn't know mine the door is closed in the Fellowship Of The Ring book
"I am their creator. I AM THEIR MASTER!" "No. You are their prisoner." - dang, after the opening with king Durin and the Balrog I didn't think I could cry more, but Celebrimbor´s strength freaking broke me 😭 (Celebrimbor´s end was book accurate, including being pierced by a spear int the air) RIP Adar, I´ll continue to head-canon him as Maeglin (it makes the most sense). The duel between Galadriel and Sauron was such a mind-game! Also, seeing at the end Galadriel dressed in simple white, marking her first step of becoming the White Lady of Lotlorien was just perfect.
In the Legendarium Celembrimbor was tortured by Saroun for the location of the 3 elven rings but would not give it up, He had the other 16 in a vault in Eragion. After he died, They used his body as a war banner.
"Celembrimbor's cries are as sweet music to mine ears. His body suspended upon a pole, displayed as a banner, was a glorious sight to behold in our most finest battle."
Awards ?? This show ?? You haven't watched that many I assume. The finale was bearable. The whole season is pathetic. This has 49% viewer ratings on Rotten Tomatoes.
It is so Awesome ASF!! The BALROG introduction Holy Fukkkk! EPIC🔥🔥🔥🔥🤯!!! The stranger Nori,poppy scene is just absolutely fecking WILD!! so Cool!🥰🥰😍😍😍!! Thank you Grand elf = GANDALF😃🤩!! oh Yeah!! ❤️it!! Huge Gandalf vibes with That Staff😊! + Galadriel vs 100% totally badass Sauron = so Fukin brutal🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥⚔️🩸🩸!!! “ the door is Shut!” You want to Heal middle Earth? Heal Yourself!!” falls off the Cliff backwards! Totally🤯!! She told Definitely told him where to go! He got 🔥🔥🔥!!👌👌🤟🏻🤟🏻! + RIVENDELL😁😁🤩!!
"I, Sauron, sorcerer of dreadful might, master of shadows and phantoms, foul in wisdom, cruel in strength, lord of werewolves; and with this Master-ring, I didst pour mine very power into this One Ring to rule them all. For I am the Lord of the Rings, and Middle-Earth doth lie under mine dominion."
@38:25 Halbrand is in the books, Tolkien just didn’t give Sauron a given a name for parading around as a king of men. The directors did say Galadriel was in love with Halbrand. Notice how they both experience bloodlust in battle. Isildur is bonded with his horse in battle. Blood binds. So the show runners equated the bloodlust of Galadriel and Halbrand with lust. You’re right, it would have never worked out, and I am so excited for Celeborn to contrast Sauron’s horrid manipulation. 😊
Best season finale of Rings of Power and I love the opening scene with Durin and the Balrog. I enjoyed watching this video and I cannot wait for season 3!
Girl that scene with Celebrimbor and Sauron had me not only on the edge of my seat, but on my hands and knees shouting "DO IT!! DO IT!! Make the Shadow of Mordor series canon!!" I was so excited. 😊
I think Durin's brother has been mentioned before but we haven't seen him. My guess is not many people heard that the king made Durin his heir again this season so the brother may have expected to be the next king since the end of the first season.
Celebrimbor's fate was much worse in the book. He was lashed to a banner and carried at the front of Sauron's army as he stormed the rest of Eriador. They were debating whether to do that scene in this but they didn't end up doing it as they thought it would be too upsetting on top of everything else you see him go through. Him being pinned up with the spear is a sort of homage to it. Charles Edwards did make a joke about it though, the night before the last ep aired he put a picture of Banner Butter on his IG his story 😂
Just was reminded reading online that Celebrimbor was tortured for 2 whole years by Sauron in the books. Of course that would be hardly possible to capture on screen, but god damn, I guess they let us off easy in this show.
@@LouiseJulie_"Celembrimbor's cries are as sweet music to mine ears. His form suspended upon a pole, displayed as a banner, was a glorious sight to behold in our most finest battle." And now it's time for the world of men to fall under my control! 😈
If they do go five seasons, I can kind of guess their planned timeline...but since you haven't read the books and I don't want to spoil, all I can say openly is that S3 will probably see the forging of the One Ring, and then things get really wild.
Celebrimbor get tortured and killed by sauron hands and then the orcs mutilate his body and parade his body outside of eregion and thank God that wasn’t shown in the episode
I hope not. It makes way more sense for the Dark Wizard to be one of the Blue Wizards that disappeared to the East (Rhûn). Tolkien himself wrote that they failed like Saruman did, but in different ways, and otherwise left their fates vague.
@@FrenchCelt If he had any kind of "new" or unique appearance about him, I'd agree. But he literally has all the mannerisms and appearance of Saruman. Holds his staff in much the same way. They haven't gone out of their way to make him in any way distinct from the other wizards like Peter Fran and Phillipa did with Radaghast. Same dislike of halflings. Like Gandalf, he has the same beard shape as his character, only darker, more grey, less white. Nothing at all "blue" about him. He even calls Gandalf "old friend" CONSTANTLY, to the point of "hey! You get it??? Do you get the hint we're making?" levels in the episode which is exactly how he greeted him when we first saw them meet in Fellowship. " But that is why you are here, is it not? My old friend." Gandalf: "Saruman."
@@marisolm5384 I hadn't thought about how he might come back reborn as "The White". I bet you're totally right, and him being reborn by The Valar would certainly help Gandalf forgive him for destroying The Stoors home and convince him he's on the side of good. Question remains though, why would The Valar bring back Saruman? Maybe like Bilbo with Gollum, The Valar pitied Sour Man.
@@YodatheHobbit I'd be very disappointed if they went that way...and then they would have to pull a Lex Luthor mind wipe on Gandalf like in the series finale of Smallville so Lex forgets that Clark is a Kryptonian and they can have the traditional Lex Luthor/Superman relationship going forward. Gandalf has to forget that Saruman was an evil Dark Wizard, otherwise it makes no sense that Saruman becomes the widely respected chief of the Istari and head of the White Council.
I hate Kemen I hate kemen I hate kemen. I’m so annoyed he didn’t die this season. The fact the threatened Berek so emotionlessly. He’s worse than Sauron.
@@mrowl3403Correction mere mortal men, doomed to die. Khamûl is an Easterling not one of the three Numenorians. Therefore, Agmar is one of the three Numenorians, hence Black Numenorian since they were colonising the continent, they survived the Downfall of Númenor. The Nine are under my power, and the world of men belongs to me! 😈
@@The_Perfect_Specimen Thanks for the clarification dear Maiar, however we are not immune to the fact that Amazon once again does not really respect the lore 100% 😬 And we are not sure that Amazon want again to make another word game like "Grand elf" - "Gandalf" 😅
Already tried to cancel someone this week? The Darkside is disappointed in you, not so young acolyte. No false claims, no harassment with claiming victim afterwards, your lack of commitment is disturbing.
At this stage, the die-hard haters who are still slating this show all over social media are just making themselves look ridiculous. Certainly s1 had its flaws and I criticised them, but the show has improved enormously since then. Loved your reactions, can't wait to see what's next.
@@LouiseJulie_ You know google? But sadly amazon don't care about money. So i am an idiot telling the truth? This show takes a huge shit on Tolkins legacy. Just disrespect here.

@@ogrosch4568 it belongs to the Tolkien estate now they are fit to do what they believe is right for them now and the world Tolkien lived in is well gone now and viewership has returned to series now
It’s going to be SUCH a long ~2 years waiting for season 3 😭❤️
2 Years?! oh fuuuuuck!😭😭!!
One of the few people who actually reacted to Tom Bombadil and Gandalf singing, aka my favourite moment of this show, just for how unexpected and beautiful it was.
why was it
"You wish to heal Middle-Earth? Heal yourself." I love that Galadriel actually told Sauron to fucking go to therapy.
IKR
It was a dumb line
4:02 That evil laugh you made, when you saw Balrog, is perfect!!!
This opening is worthy of being admired on the big screen 😮
It was so cool seeing the birth of Rivendell ❤️
The valley they fled to in the end ist the very place Rivendell will be found/built. That's straight out of the books actually.
Celebrimbor mic-dropped his LIFE! What a boss
I loved this season and just to let you know that is how Celebrimbor gets killed in the book more or less when Sauron said the door is still open and Galadriel said the door is shut it reminded me of when Galadriel told Frodo he knows my mind but he doesn't know mine the door is closed in the Fellowship Of The Ring book
I hope they do the celembrimbor banner as the opening of season 3 Charlie Vickers wants to do it
"I am their creator. I AM THEIR MASTER!" "No. You are their prisoner." - dang, after the opening with king Durin and the Balrog I didn't think I could cry more, but Celebrimbor´s strength freaking broke me 😭 (Celebrimbor´s end was book accurate, including being pierced by a spear int the air)

Where the elves are at the ending scene is where I think they build Rivendell.
Pretty sure you're right

Thank you sooo much Louise for your reactions, this show is amazing, and getting to watch it with you and cry with you made it even better ❤
Good job defeating the copyright! Been looking forward to this 😊
This has got to be one of the best Season finales of any show I’ve ever seen! This show deserves so many awards. Can’t wait for season 3.

🤣🤣🤣 You guys must be joking. This show is written so badly, even when you don’t consider how poorly it represents the Middle Earth universe…

Celebrimbors death in the books is much more brutal than portrayed in the show.
This is the first time I've watched a show with an elf. You rock it!
God this season ❤

It was suuuch a strong season and I love seeing Charles getting rightfully praised. I was dreading the canonically accurate death scene :(
Need season 3 now
Durin the III breaking the Balrog's fire sword made me hyped until the end of the episode. Made me more invested into the Lore of Middle-Earth again

Pretty great improvement from Season 1 ! Love this Season 2 !
Celebrimbor gets it even worse in the books, not only is he skewered but his body is used as a war banner by Sauron.
😭😭

Thanks for sharing your reactions.
It's a similar death of Lord Celebrimbor in the books. Yet, it becomes worse for his body as the war goes along.
no F's for Glug, only the f's for f'd around and found out
Seasons 3 os gonna be like House of the dragon in the mines !
Love your reactions! This has been such an awesome season of tv!
Hi Louise hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️
2026 could be heading for Rings of Power S3 vs Harry Potter S1.
Great video L.J
there we saw rivendell :3
in the books sauron uses celebrimbors body as a banner i hope we dont see that in s3
Season 3 the war of the elves and more numenor yippee
Celebrimbor get tortured and killed by sauron hands and then the orcs mutilate his body and parade his body outside of eregion and thank God that wasn’t shown in the episode
Maybe next season though...
Youre eyeshadow is the stuff of legends
Appreciate the use of "bell end" 😂
DMCA is atrocious. Wonderful reaction, up there with my faves for this year as far as a reactor goes. Disa was in fact okay lol.
Brutal 😱
If Gandalf is a Grand Elf, that dark wizard man simply MUST be Sour Man, right?
I think so, maybe he'll die and come back as Sour Man the white.The question is if he'll die fighting for good or evil...
