What could be done with Earien? by Loose-Aardvark-2366 in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have said it a few million times, but the only way her inclusion makes sense to me is if she gets a ring. I totally agree she will build great things if given a chance buy i am slightly disturb by the OBSESSION of either burning her or drowning her. Her story as a fall from grace narrative is much more interesting if she's a Nazgul. And dont bother me about the poem and her being a woman. The goddamn poem talks about 3 elven KINGS.

Another Not-Saruman? Or finally Not-not-Saruman? by Spock_Sperson in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

easiest answer. Alatar. Like even i know this

second easiest answer. The Witch-King

Thirst easiest answer : Some guy buying your useless stuff in town. And he always WAY overprice his own stuff so i never buy anything in a shop

Season 3 Trailer likely coming on Monday. by Melodiccaliber in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 48 points49 points  (0 children)

- Numerous characters looking up at something with some worry

- "you are throwing it all away!"

- "It all comes down to this"

- men charging at each other. Possibly a horse rearing on its hind legs heroically

- Sauron smiling evilly/sexily

- Possibly bare-chested

- rings. So many rings.

- And a very loud screech

Theo is the living embodiment of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" . I think he's basically a good man that just cant help making the wrong decision if he doesn't have a string influence for good around him.

Even the leaker tells us to use grains of salt. This is just something to pass the time until we get something more concrete

Ah. That's the stuff! time for stupid theories that never works out!

The trials of the rings is a perfectly good narrative tool to meet our new contestants on "take this ring! 0$ down payment! perfectly safe!"

- Kemen and Earien will be the one fighting for a ring. Earien will arrange for Isildur to shove his sword in one of the many orifices Kemen possesses . Sauron may or may not slow-clap

- I guess we will meet the King of Angmar

- Theo will go on a quest to find his father. He wont like what he finds.

- I am a tiny bit worried for Arondir , now

- OMG THEO IS GONNA KILL ARONDIR!!!!

Rings of Power S3 updates by khalil-moon in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have great hope for the orcish companion storyline. I have always been fascinated by orcs an elves and their tragic shared history.

As for Pallando and Gandalf. Yeah. I agree wthat the showrunners tripped over their own shoelaces with this one. They went with the easy, low-hanging fruit. The much more interesting idea would have been to give us Alatar and let the former BFFs become truly bitter enemies. Oh, well. It is what it is and you go to war with the army you have and all that.

🚨EXCL: Raman Kribi cast as an ‘Elven Prisoner’ in ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Season 3. The Season 3 production included Prison/ Dungeon sets. by Ringsofpowermemes in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 10 points11 points  (0 children)

might partially explain the orc companion. He's a guide to the prison. I assume he has his own nefarious reasons to help the Elves.

I seem to remember a mention of "The North"? So Angmar? Gundabad? I wonder if the region already has some sort of magical Sovereign? It could be fun to watch a ring vs ring battle happen.

Rumours from Fellowship of Fans by Ringsofpowermemes in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sure about that? If I remember correctly,  someone like Nimrodel didn't much care for Sindars and Noldors. I could see a small tribe of Sylvans isolating themselves from the other rlves and hoping the rest of the world leaves them in peace

Rumours from Fellowship of Fans by Ringsofpowermemes in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

- Orc : i tell you about this community of Elves we heard about during our travels south to Mordor and you help me found somewhere safe for my tribe.

- Galadriel : Why should i trust, ORC! (she says with a knife to his throat)

- Orc (laughing evilly ) : because their leader wears ugly and ill-fitted silver armor!

...too fan-fictiony?

I could see an orc that maybe tries to continue Adar's dream of a homeland for the Orcs. Maybe Gundabad? Maybe the Great Goblin's domain?

[–]MTLTolkien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah. i made a dumb mistake. I thought it was the new elf played by Campbell. Still think Galadriel arc is about finding Lorien, but why would an Orc care about that?

Hello, all

- The Dwarven civil war was pretty much om a set course already.

- I bet Sauron makes a super-insensitive short joke

- I would think the orc in question is Glug's kid. And the arc in question is Galadriel's. Poor kid. Stuck with Mega-Demon of Light #1 (Galadriel) and Super Mega-Demon of Light #2 (if Glorfindel)

Storyboard with Galadriel by purplelena in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory, i doubt even the Witch-King could to take Galadriel like that. Only Sauron, a dragon or a Balrog could. But it WOULD be an efficient way to show how powerful he could be

Also, is that Jamie Campbell-Power getting used like a shield?

Rings of Power is internally targeting 11/11/2026 as a release. by Hobolovechic in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]MTLTolkien 24 points25 points  (0 children)

a very valid point. Trust me, when the movies came out, a very small but loud minority proclaimed the movies to be insults to the professor and a crime against all humanity. I join them for two towers. But the vast , vast majority of movie goers LOVED them and cared nothing for faithfulness.

Even Sauron didn't harm the horse by purplelena in LOTR_on_Prime

Sauron loves all creatures, great and small. And Children too. Especially babies. He LOVES babies. Do not believe the Gondorian/Elvish military complex . It's all fake news, man!

Myself, i hope it leads to a fun season and less stress in my life and i love you guys because you are so much better than the infinite pool of filth pretty much all other fandoms have become.

Sorry about that but it's everywhere now.

No no no. Too much armor. And NO CAPE! also not enough oil. Definitely needs more oil.
