@theblackflame4002
@theblackflame4002 Год назад
Her sorry is sorry not sorry. Its too bad the writers have made the main character far and away the most unlikable character. There's some claim that she will be 'humbled' at some point. Issue is that has to happen early on or they will continue to lose viewers. Arrogance on her level is a trait of a villain to make it so people don't like them, in a 'hero' it's off putting and out of place.

The mithril plot hurts my brain. I'm seeing it defended as a deception of Sauron, but the idea that Gil-galad and Elrond would believe it is depressingly stupid. But we need a conflict between the elves and dwarves, so I reckon we'll have to get it somehow. (Also, they are legally able to reference the Silmarils. A lot of the prologue's defenses just went the window, in case anybody cared. And why oh why would they therefore not be able to mention the Nauglamir or Thingol or allude to any other pre-existing conflict?)

@Silent Man and I agree, elves are supposed to be like super soldiers in comparison to men, but I feel like that cheesy scene wasn’t the way to show it, Maybe even have her hold back because she’s a guest and knows elves aren’t welcome in numinor, THEN when they reached middle earth she shows them her true POWER? I’m enjoying the show I just feel like I’m constantly thinking… they could have done this and that… and it’s annoying me now. Lastly you know there gona reach middle earth and stumble across Bronwyn in that tower, which is going to be embarrassing that they so happened to sail to that exact tower being attacked…. if it does happen, ( which I hope it doesn’t), Why not just have the tower on the coast so at least then Galadriel and the numinorians can be sailing and spot the tower being attacked on the shore, just anything, DO SUMAT AMAZON.

"meteor man" is definitely a Maia. Possibly one of the Istari blue wizards, but I think it might be Radagast. He wears the same kind of brown wool-like robe that Radagast from The Hobbit wears and in Episode 5 he was shown contemplating things under the full moon. Yavanna used the last flower and seed from the Two Trees, with the tears of Nianna and the vessels made by Aule, to create the Sun and Moon. In the poster showing the Stranger he is carrying an Apple; also a symbol of Yavanna. Yavanna only sent one Maia to Middle Earth: Radagast.

Everything in TROP feels like it's been shot on a little stage with a small group of amateur actors. It always feels like 15 people at most on screen which is daft when you're sending an army.... By lacking in Tolkien spirit I means a lot of things, such as the general script, story telling, plot, it doesn't feel Tolkien at all and the non canon origins for Mirthil etc don't even need to be there, Tolkien left a lot of mystery for a reason, because sometimes it's better to leave things unanswered and let the reader wonder.

Answer, **Everything!** The only thing RoP shares with Tolkien's legendarium are legally used nouns and proper nouns., like Galadriel, mithril, Lindon, Harfoots, etc. This show could have been a badly written script for the "Iliad" where they swapped out the names of the Iliad characters for Middle-Earth characters and it would be just as close to Tolkien's books as RoP is.

When Adar first meets Arondir and Arondir tells him he's from Beleriand, Adar tells a story about going down a river in Beleriand where the banks were lined with sage blossoms. If in fact he is referring to the Sirion, then the armor similarity could make sense, bcz Gil-Galad and nearly all the remaining Noldor and Teleri would have been gathered there (at the mouth of the Sirion) after the fall of Gondolin. So perhaps Adar is some corrupted Noldorin or Telerin elf who has kept his armor since the end of the First Age, like Gil-Galad.

Out of the possible theories so far I like Sauron operating unseen and driving the aspirations of Celebrimbor including the (Hopefully) lie about Mithril origins, In doing so he is simultaneously laying the groundwork for the rings and distracting the elves while his buddy Adar is busy trying to get Mordor Started. Also it seems to me that the Sword was originally used to enslave or bind the King to Saurons service but the dark power within can be used to set off Mount Doom somehow or whatever else it might be that covers the land in Darkness.

I don't mind the origin of mithril, I just don't like the idea of the elves dying if they don't obtain it. I hope that is just a deception tactic used by sauron.
@indoctrinationtheory1468
@indoctrinationtheory1468 Год назад
I don't think it's a true origin story. Gil-Galad asks Elrond if he knows "the song". Elrond remarks it is "an obscure legend, most consider apocryphal". Mithril was found on Valinor, which may be why Gil- believes it contains the light of the Silmarils, and it's discovery in Khazad-Dum may be the first time it has been found in quantity in Middle-Earth.

It's awful. Even if you accept the terrible idea as some kind of ploy it still makes Gil Galad seem even more the moron or bad king they've made him appear which is already terrible.

​@@indoctrinationtheory1468 I totally agree with you. The fact that Gil Galad may believe it doesn't make it truth. The show only presented us what he thinks is the origin of mithril and may be his last straw to cling onto. Obviously it's not true and it will fail to provide the cure he desperately seeks.

I believe Adar is an elf, or one of those who swore an oath. If you look at one of the posters you can see Adar’s gloved hand holding a black sword, very similar to those that the elves who swore an oath in the show used, and the one that Galadriel used at the start of the show.

One thing i found interesting was when Galadriel reacts to Halbrand's sword skills saying, "Never knew a smith's aide who chould do that". Sauron was once also a smith's aide. Aule, the smith of the Valar.

It's not like he exampled some bitchin' footwork, parries & thrusts.🤷 The writing is so forced & out of context, as if the writing team's average age is 12.

Durin continues to be my favorite character so far! but I think you are right, I think Sauron may already be in Eregion spinning his web and convincing Celebrimbor to lie to Gil-Galad. Perhaps we may see in a future flashback that Gil-Galad and Elrond have already sussed "Annatar" out and dismissed him? Which could explain why Celebrimbor is so willing to lie to GG. Either way, I do believe this Mithril origin story is a load of crap that GG is so gullible against because he's seeing the physical effects on that mallorn tree. Scared people can become desperate, and desperate people can be capable of anything. That's my hope at least.. Also.. GLORFINDEL... DELIVER ME MY BEAUTIFUL BALROG SLAYER PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!

I also felt at one point when Halbrand was talking about "what he's done" and "his dark past", we directly cut to the current Orc invasion, and the men of the Southlands bowing to Adar, I kind'a felt like there might be a timeskip in there, where Halbrand was perhaps Rowan? Or even Theo, from the past?
@ShadowGold96

The way Halbrand talks this is also my current theory. My pick is forsure Rowan, Theo would make less sense to me since well skincolor doesnt just change. And hence also why he picks the tower as where his people got attacked.

At first I thought the morgul blade theory true but after seeing this latest episode I believe its the key to causing Orodruin (Mount Doom) to erupt, I think it makes sense seeing as how the letter from the Spy which Galadriel read in the Hall of Laws in numenor said that the orcs were gathering in the Southlands with the goal of making it an envioronment which orcs could thrive in and then when we see them they're earching for that Hilt/Key. Whatever it is I really believe that it is the key to making Orodruin erupt.
