The istari's mission really just went like every group project ever, ending with one member doing all the work

Fun fact: Tolkien changed his mind about the Blue Wizards in his later writings. He retconned it by saying history thought they faded out, but that they actually had an active role in stopping Sauron in the East.

I loved Tolkien's description of Morgoth twisting the creations of others: "He can only mock. He cannot make."

Imagine spending most of your life creating the single most iconic fictional universe of all time. Absolute legend.

Tolkien did so much heavy lifting for the fantasy genre that it’s hard to overstate his impact.

All this coming from a persons imagination. Must of had an incredible mind.

I'm not even a huge LOTR nerd, but I love those illustrations.

Damn you Melkor for creating all these internet trolls...

The Lord of the Rings mythology.

Here's a couple of extra facts that people might find interesting. Even though Sauron generally gets a fiery vibe, what with the red eye and the cracks of doom, Morgoth (called Melkor here) actually had a cold domain. He was responsible for making the dragons, but also... Snow! Yeah, odd right? Eru explains that even if Melkor tries to mess up his creation, it will all turn out as Eru intended in the end.

Two thoughts, one minor correction and one clarification on a fascinating point.

I actually really like the idea that LOTR and the Hobbit, take place much much after the great epic of the world had already happen, played by lesser folk that those who were in the great epic of before. Something about that is charming and I really like it

I remember when I was young I watched the entire trilogy and basically considered myself as an expert. Boy was I wrong. Tolkien has created a giant and vast universe where it's so delvable for ages to come. Thanks for the interesting video.

Do you remember when this was called "The Lord of the Rings Mythology Explained (Part 1)"?

I very much appreciate this condensation of so much of Tolkien's rich material into such a comprehensive and concise video! As a Tolkien scholar I do have two minor suggestions, one of which is very easily fixable the other more an interesting topic of discussion. The easily fixed error is the spelling of Saruman's name which in the video was spelled "Sauruman" (clearly echoing Sauron, but Tolkien as an exacting philologist would have pointed out the different linguistic roots of the names to show that the exact spelling is quite important. The "saur" of "Sauron" means "abhorrent" or "abominable" in the Elvish language Quenya, while Saruman translates as "man of skill." I'm sure Gandalf would have suspected Saruman from the beginning if his chosen name meant "abhorrent"!

Pausing to note that I appreciate that Melkor singing his discordant note is an F (assuming this is treble clef) while the rest of the Istar are singing in E. E to F is a minor second, the most dissonant interval.

I have learned more about the LotR universe in these 4 minutes than I have in hours of trying to watch other explanation videos and many video games. Thank you.
