I am no tree 🌳 I am an Ent!

It's more of a letter-opener, really...

I enjoyed the content so I left a like to support the channel ;))))

Hey man keep going with this content, you got this.

Sting was not more powerfull than Glamdring and so was not the strongest weapon in marzabul.

I had to move on, the pauses are too long and speech too slow. Sorry

A fictional metal?

Wasn't Sting in the books uninscribed? Elrond could read the runes and identify the swords Thorin and Gandalf carried, but not the weapon Bilbo would call Sting. 🤔

Middle Earth is a lot larger than I thought.

I actually have one!

This is great bud and your diction is excellent. The spoken word speed is maybe 33% too slow. I like the deliberate + precise words, but you could be a little faster and improve the acceptance of the information

When Tolkien wrote "The Hobbit", he probably didn't have a clear idea of the history behind Sting. As it is now, Sting's presence in eastern Eriador late in the 3rd age is problematic. Elrond says that Sting and the other swords must have come from a dragon's hoard or goblin plunder-but that others may have "robbed the robbers"- this had to be the case, since the dragon hoards would have been drowned at the end of the 1st age, and it's questionable whether orcs would have even been able to endure having such weapons around. Men must have had the swords for much of time between the fall of Gondolin and Bilbo's adventure.

I think you missed out the most important conflict in which thing was involved. I mean the attack of five of the Nazgûl on Weathertop. Frodo does not just collapse in the presence of the Nazgûl as many do - he at least tries to fight. Sting at least cuts through the Nazgûl’s garments. Who knows what damage such a blade was able to do to the Ringwraith??

Can't watch your content you are too slow speaking, get some excitement into your work. just can't listen to you.

Great story. Subscribed 🗡️

A tiny belt weapon with a storied history. Thank you.

I thought it was more of a letter opener? Shouldn’t it have been described as “Letter’s Bane?”

Tolkien did not want nerds to sit around not getting laid ..speaking the made up languages he wrote up in a children's story

This is very well done

Gordan Sumner 😂

Was sting destroyed when mount doom erupted?

❤

I'd like to hear your thoughts on Sarumans ring. Also you forgot Tommy Bombey was a bearer of the one. Everyone forgets Tom.

I've just found your channel. Great videos. Nice and short. I'm subbed❤

I hate it you never really get a clear look at what the nine rings of men look like in the PJ movies. You can find what they looked like online, but It's just one of them. I guess you could say the same for the Dwarven rings since we only really got to see one of those up close in the Hobbit deleted scene. I wonder if the 9 rings of men all looked the same with different stones, or if they were all the same. The Weta Workshop version of the ring has a red stone. There is also a similar ring in that video game about this guy turning into a ringwraith, but I forget the name of the game.

I was waiting to hear that F word and was not left wanting

I liked the video, you went over stuff I cared to know and with a straightforward delivery

I didn’t know about Nessa until I saw this video. I really like her as a character and I can imagine how lovely they are. Thanks for making this video. I am new to your channel. It is really cool 😄.

Sending you love and hope also from our little channel too!❤. Yes we subscribed also! I am currently reading "The Hobbit" fir the first time myself! I am only touching on my favorite part in each chapter!. My Dad recommended i give it a try and have been hooked so far! Tell me what does it take to become a member of this community? Do I just have to love it so far?❤😮❤

1:30 wait what? 😂

great stuff!! your video not just the Mithril I mean. :)

Ungoliant was many things... probably not a metaphor for bulimia though :)

Harondor, Near Harad and Umbar are on both maps too, not just the Mountains of Mordor's southern border...

Radagast the simple, Radagast the fool... I do wonder why he went into hiding without leaving a notice or relaying a message (that is assuming he abandoned his home on his own volition)

thanks its a nice video but what about the version of shelob in shadow of mordor ?

The image at 2:53 is so powerful. The realisation that his creation is alive at the moment he wanted to strike them...

Who's Melkor? An ungrateful, jealous, vain and childishly egocentric god that decided he was way too good to live in world made by others, and so decided to remake It in his own image despite lacking the power, knowledge and a stable mind to do It. He only looked scary or impressive when fighting mortal beings infinitelly bellow his power and status. Honestly, his rise and downfall could be standup material If we could ignore the sheer amount of death and destruction his tantrums provoked. He had no clue of what he was doing, acting mostly based on his selfish ambition and hate of the Elves, using his might as a Valar to compensate any tactical mistakes made on the way. If Sauron was so stupid and reckless the Second Age would have gone smoothly. Actually, without beings like Sauron to lead his forces, I doubt he would have get as far as he did to begin with. Most of his early success was more predicated on the Valar being naive and trusting his as a brother than in his machinations, basically attacking someone who's sleeping, or stabbing a friend in the back. In conclusion, Is my belief that Tolkien purposefully made Melkor this way to mock how genuinely bad people in real life are childish and stupid overall, and why despite that being so clear about them since the start they still are still able to stablish a cult following and SOMEHOW bring civilization to It's knees. Tolkien lived through the times of the Russian Revolution and watched the rise of the Third Reich, which are two real life examples of "Melkors" tantruming themselves into power.

Great video, but that still only counts as one!

Good video, but the AI images ruin it for me.

I'm currently reading the silmarillion and your summary is really great ! It weeds out the details so everything makes more sense. Also the quality of your video/audio is perfect !

Virgin olive oil implies the existence of nasty, slutty olive oil, and I would like to buy some

Lorien is someone like dream of the endless from the sandman series who is the king who governs dreams, stories, plots, ideas and literatures in the waking world from the dreaming world.

Great video 🖖

Wow, James! I love it

They are a mix of Angel and Pagan God.

Couldn't even edge to this, exploded immediately!!! Clean up on aisle MY PANTS!
