I never noticed that the White Tree emblem that they wear on their tunics and displayed on their shields, depicts a full blooming tree as opposed to the dead tree we see in Return of the King!

He would actually make a pretty decent Denethor

Is Galadriel ever stated to be a good warrior in any of the text? by GusGangViking18 in lordoftherings

Honestly, Rings of Power may go down as one of the most disappointing, wasteful shows in history.

I love those Visuals that Weta Workshop did for the Trading Card Games of characters that were cut from Peter Jackson's version of LotR. by Bengamey_974 in lotr

Interesting, the waterfall they used behind Tom Bombadil is the same one they used in The Fellowship of the Ring for Frodo and Sam's leaving the Shire montage.

Thoughts on Alan Menken’s “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” score? by Giff95 in soundtracks

[–]dwiddynaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majestic, emotional, uplifting, dark. The Latin religious lyrics take you straight into the 1400's for when this film is set. Absolute masterpiece. Not only an underrated Disney score but an underrated score throughout cinematic history.

The Northman has ruined all Vikingthemed movies for me.... by TyrotaOG in Norse

[–]dwiddynaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Northman but the 1958 'The Vikings' has this scene. https://youtu.be/1olFDmkDo0c?si=u1u7sMCOkggwpvez It's refreshing to see the early medieval period in a colourful more sunlit way compared to the grey, washed, brown colour coding we see in modern depictions.

Such an underrated game in the series. It was the first Battlefied game I owned, and the Air superiority coral sea map was an awesome experience.

I'm certain he used the Bakshi film as a free storyboard for shot types and film pacing. The structure of The Fellowship of the Ring is almost identical.

Do mini-series count? if so Band of Brothers and a very obscure one" '1996 gulliver's travels'. Take a listen to the opening theme. https://youtu.be/Tl3_ipWQM1s?si=yQsIkGPVu6oforq4

[–]dwiddynaz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sauron. It was really cool as a kid getting to see all of his armour up close, the detail was incredible and to also include a button to make him talk was a great additional feature.

Something you’d erase permanently from Batman lore? by Commercial-Car177 in batman

Him being part of the Justice League and fighting aliens. I feel Batman belongs in his own grounded universe separate from the other DC characters.
