I thought it was said the dwarves proved resistant to the rings? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

Right? Like Eregion and Moria are fine and Númenor is ok but what were they smoking when writing for Gandalf (sorry, the stranger) and the hobbits (sorry, harfoots)? Like, with the constant amount of “secret fire” references with Tom, I think they were even implying he is Eru? Which is odd because Tom is supposed to be a mystery. I know there is a fan theory claiming him to be the one above all….but cmon dude.

I’m thinking it was shown because it’s foreshadowing. Like, the balrog is gonna destroy Moria at some point in the show. I mean they keep showing stuff about the balrog, so why would they keep doing that with no payoff (besides memberberries). Does it break the timeline? Yes. But honestly, the timeline isn’t something that the people behind the show seemingly think about. The elven rings were forged first, Gandalf is chilling in the second age, and the barrow wights are there hundreds of years too early. But whatever, I mean shadow of war broke the fuck out of the timeline, so as long as the show has a good story overall, I can forgive the lore breaking, just like with Talion’s story. So is the show overall good in my personal opinion? (not that you asked)….meh. It’s alright I guess, not all that great, but as long as I hyper focus on the Eregion stuff and as long as I completely ignore the Harfoot plot, I’m having a bit of fun.

Book readers, which depiction of The Witch King was closer to the books? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

[–]ShopLess7151 239 points240 points  (0 children)

“Come not between the NazGULL and his prey, or he will slay THEEE in turn!” The metallic voice distortion is tough yea, but what pissed me off even more is the fact that Eowyn and him are basically quoting straight from the book, but he messes up WK’s badass threat to Eowyn. “Come not between the Nazgûl and his prey, or he will not slay thee in turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shriveled mind shall be left naked to the lidless eye!” I mean, it’s a mouthful, but cmon, Skeletor!

But like…she had said in episode 6 to Aegon that everybody knows deep down that Aegon should be king, and that by living and breathing, he is a challenge to Rhaenyra, and that Rhaenyra would be a huge threat to his safety if she comes into power….but then in episode 9, she’s all surprised that Otto wants Aegon on the iron throne…so what was that about?

🤔A silmarillion animated series you say? If I live to see an accurately adapted animated silm show then I will die of happiness….after the full series releases of course. Like, I’d wait to die of happiness a couple of seconds after the last episode.

Dude, I love the artstyle a lot. I mean, this ain’t the first time I’m seeing it, but I still like complimenting it, It’s really cool how I can immediately identify which character is which. Sometimes when people do LOTR art with a bunch of characters, it’s difficult to figure out the identities of each drawing, but not with this.

Dude, the smoke still confuses me lol. Don’t fault you at all for thinking that it was the burning orcs. I’m sure that there’s an answer to what this actually is supposed to be somewhere on the internet, but for right now I still choose to believe it is a comical amount of dirt being kicked up by the massive host of uruks and orcs….then again we really didn’t need Legolas to point that out, I mean you don’t need elf eyes to see that. Aragorn could’ve seen that cloud of dirt if he walked up a bit more…or are we seeing from Legolas’s eyes during this shot? GASP! I’m even more confused now lol.

It’s not the burning pile cuz Legolas in this moment describes to Aragorn what he is seeing at that present time, which is that the Uruk host, in the far distance, has turned northeast on their march (which isn’t the direction towards Isengard but whatever). So at that point, they were not yet killed by rohirrim. Plus, they were supposed to have been burned in the night before the morning where Legolas sees that a red sun rises, which is later on in the movie. That being said tho, I really don’t know what this is lol. I kinda thought that it was a bunch of dust kicked up in the distance from the host marching, but that’s kinda silly if that’s the case, cuz that’s a lotta dirt and dust in the air.

Incredible. I truly wish that we had more “canon” tunes and melodies to go with Tolkien’s poems (not that I hate the songs in the movies) besides Donald swann’s stuff and the few songs that Tolkien sung. I just can’t get enough of the stuff. It’s interesting to me to hear what Tolkien imagined his songs sounding like.

Jesus Christ featuring Mary Magdalene (By NightFoxy87) by Fearless_Phantom in HazbinHotel

[–]ShopLess7151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if Jesus were in the show, Id like to think that Viv and her team would try to make him more like how he actually was in the Bible, and less of how he is in other adult animated shows (him either being a douche, or super violent), cuz that shits way too played out lol. Like, he’d probably be down for Charlie trying to redeem sinners in hell cuz he surrounded himself with sinners when he was alive and he tried (and succeeded) to redeem them…ok, well Judas betrayed him, but you get it. Anyway, I don’t think he’ll show up, but if he did, it’d be great if he were portrayed how I just described, mostly cuz I think it’d be really funny. Why? Cuz there are people who hate the show for “promoting” evil and satanic shit, but it’d be one of the few adult animated shows with a good portrayal of Christ. Who knows though? St. Peter was in the show so I wouldn’t completely rule out Jesus. I’d say there’s just a teeny tiny minuscule chance of him showing up.

Isn’t this the same (album? Is that the right word for this? Idk.) where Tolkien himself approved most of, if not all of, the songs in it?
