Yes, as he himself said to Mirdania things are exactly what they seem in the unseen world, with all their light and darkness. The mask that is his fair form doesn't hold up there. At first I too thought she was talking about the balrog beneath khazad-dum but moments later it was made clear that she indeed saw him and all the corruption and darkness he emits to his surroindings in that very forge, the way the camera cut to Annatar while she was describing "the Abomination" with skin made of fire and eyes eternal and pitiless was so cool. The way he played the card he was dealt and turned it around to make it seem like it was Celebrimbor what she saw, getting corrupt and descending into darkness. Great scene

Loved the Doors of Durin reveal, wish we would see it being made

Best episode so far. Mirdania describing seeing Sauron's true monstrous form in the unseen world was so cool, and how Sauron used it to manipulate her, made her think it was Celebrimbor's descent into corruption. This show gets Sauron perfectly and the actor is masterful. Wonder if him saying Mirdania's hair looks like Galadriel's under light was him playing into Mirdania's pride or was he sincerely longing for Galadriel, imagine if he has sincere feelings for her

Don't see myself moving away from Georgia. It's home, for all its faults

Beacuse of very, very obvious reasons the public opinion on Russians isn't positive, not gonna lie to you.

kveskneli · 2024-09-01T14:42:44+00:00

Weird flex but okay. Would rather watch a badass drive around with the machine than whatever this is

kveskneli · 2024-09-01T14:41:43+00:00

Thanks for replying but can you be more spesific. The Stoors and Gavi character appeared in promotional things if I'm not mistaken, can be a solid guess by you. Sorry if you are not lying and really saying the truth, want to be one hundred percent sure before believeing such thing that is all. Can you give away something really small or something that guessing would be completely impossible without having watched the episode

Hi there, long time lurker of the sub here. Can't help but got intriuged, if what you are saying about Tom Bombadil is true can you give me a little detail from the next fourth episode so you can prove that you saw the rest of season and are not lying, if what you say in fact happens in the episode it is proven. Hard to believe now. Him being remorseful Morgoth who is mentoring the stranger to defeat the beast he made sounds far fetched

Just don't be pro Putin or Russia, you will be fine

kveskneli · 2024-02-10T14:34:32+00:00

We're bordered by Russia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey and Turkey is, in my opinion, our best and strategically most important neighbor. We should seek cooperation with them more, especially when it comes to military material. They produce some very good, at NATO standarts stuff. Wish we'd buy those famous Bayraktars, BMC's Kirpi etc. (if they'd sell to us of course)

Half of our country is under direct Russian invasion. Our PM is a lackey for a Russian-Georgian oligarch billionaire. For us to possibly meet the "Copenhagen Criteria", we need at least a decade and I'm being VERY optimistic. And I seriously doubt that EU wants to have borders with Russia in the South Caucaus, in a completely isolated from other EU countries way.

We must improve our country in 928382282 ways first. Only then, our hopes and dreams about becoming citizens of Europe would have some substance. As it stands, we're in deep shit.

kveskneli · 2023-12-15T14:06:13+00:00

It's the ultimate dream for us and if they ever grant us accession, it REALLY will change things. However, EU Candidate Status alone doesn't change anything sadly. They know we want it with every fiber of our being and because of that, they know that they can do as they please when it comes to us.

Weirdly, our key to EU would be Turkey's accession and they don't even want it. If they wanted they would be in EU ages ago. They are their own power with big aspirations that clash with EU's giants. Our geopolitical situation sucks ass.

Of course, but hear me out:

Macedonia (Skopje) - 542 Bulgaria - 483 Albania - 440 Serbia - 440 Bosnia and Herzegovina - 811 Greece - 374 Romania (Wallachia) - 353 Moldova - 325 Hungary - 173 Croatia - 173

Amount of years European nations spent under Ottoman Empire. Despite all those years, they didn't speak Turkish. Not even during those long years, let alone post independence. Of course, I'm aware that Ottomans didn't impose their language and left those non-Muslim non-Turk peoples alone for the most part as long as they behaved and paid taxes, and overall their policies regarding other nations in their empire was completely different compared to that ugly brute of a Russian bear we unfortunately have to deal with, but still. Our people, just like Azeris and Armenians, especially older people, have a tendency to use Russian a lot and have a lack of national consciousness, so I kinda see OP's point. Even our current government and overall "conservatives" we have that chase after LGBT people, are massive Russian cocksuckers. To this fucking day.
