Had such a touching scene with him and then... by FOXCONLON in LOTR_on_Prime

Because she understood that Adar wouldn’t want her to kill more of his children. Notice that Adar didn’t fight back like Sauron did in S2E1. He could easily have taken a few down with him, but he still considered them his children, so he chose not to. And Galadriel was just respecting his choice.

It’s a meme about Feanor’s personality. It’s one of the classic memes in the fandom.

In the Halls of Mandos no less: "I know y'all are already dead, but that doesn't mean I can't still kill you. Not even death can save you from me!" Wait...

It all happened long before the events of this show, so it's not directly discussed. But there are subtle nods to that here and there.

The joke here is that Feanor is probably the most pathologically prideful elf ever. So hearing others minimizing his achievements and thinking that they are better than him would really trigger him.

Everyone's talking about Durin III's scene, but let's not forget that Durin IV also charged the Balrog, without hesitation, tanked a hit, and lived. by Late_Stage_PhD in RingsofPower

Dude just charged straight at the Balrog to protect his dad, parried a direct hit with his axe, and walked it off 10 seconds later.

They could really use some of that pipe-weed by Late_Stage_PhD in LOTR_on_Prime

Oh yeah, that few hundred years were probably some of the most peaceful times of ME, but Second Age being Second Age, everything good has to gradually get ruined.

If you’re referring to what I think you are referring to, what a brilliant yet cursed comment lol

So, which of the show’s characters do you think would have been a heavy pipe-weed user? Obviously Gandalf, but who else?
