Man this dude is up there with Guts from Berserk....what a tragic story

[@octagonseventynine1253]

Turin’s story is comparable to Guts. Even joining a band of outlaws and carrying a black sword. Other parallels too.

[@Idciydhmb]

It is a shame we won’t get to see how Guts story ends. What if Guts from Berserk story ended like Turin son of Hurin?

[@rafaelambrosini7562]

Explain me why

[@CivilizationEx]

Correction: It was Hurin, not Turin, who said ""Marrer of Middle-Earth, would that I might see you face to face, and mar you as my Lord Fingolfin did!"

[@CivilizationEx]

Question for Audience: What do you guys think of the sound effect added in this video? Do they make it better? Worse? Did you even notice? Please let me know so I can get feedback about whether or not to include more sound effects in future videos. Thanks! :)

[@SHARKVADERS]

I like it!

[@JoniukasVader]

Thumbs up!

[@Robo-Hector]

Its a good addition. I really don't wanna sound like a jerk but maybe consider getting someone to draw cooler looking character models for your vids?

[@CivilizationEx]

That would be great, but the channel's nowhere near big enough to start hiring people, hopefully it'll get there someday.

[@mo0onlightmovies]

don't even think is bad .. is really good ..don't you ever stop for what you do

[@st0ox]

Man that escalated badly

[@andrewforte3852]

They need to make a big budget movie trilogy of Children of Hurin. More along the lines of Lord of the Rings than the Hobbit, that is more substance than style.

[@jackwegner5139]

And have it be directed by Quentin Tarantino

[@rodrigosanz04]

I completely agree, or at least a series in Amazon Prime Video once they're done with the new LOTR series. The story of Húrin and his children must be taken to the screens! I'm totally convinced that I would be a great success...

[@giokun100]

Do you really want the filthy hands of Hollywood touching this timeless masterpiece?

[@silversnail1413]

I don't think the epic LOTR treatment would work for this. LOTR is a very uplifting story about heroism, friendship, and good triumphing over evil. Children Of Hurin is all about loss, pain and tragedy. If they do make a film version it should be smaller and more intimate, more focus on characters instead of huge battles and sweeping camera shots.

[@jamescheddar4896]

@@silversnail1413 yep, there's many movies that could have used the sweeping army shots but children of hurin needs to have more 1 on 1 scenes.

[@nicholasryan7766]

still say this is probably the most heartbreaking story ever... even the future vengeance, while just, brings a tear to one's eye when placing oneself in Turin's shoes... at least in my case...

[@sivanlevi3867]

There's only one influence I can think of that could have inspired the death of Turin and that is the fate of the hero Ajax during the Trojan War, who sank into depression and killed himself by falling upon his own sword. It has also given rise to an expression describing how one can bring about their own downfall through their actions or from depression.

[@nathanjohnson7419]

Themes of deep sorrow from where chiefly flowed great beauty in the music of the ainur

[@merrymerryjerry6736]

Turin: It's your boi, MistaIncest, and I'm here to kill the dank lord!

[@lhadzyan7300]

You forgot to tell about how Hurin did more harm to King Thingol of Doriath, after he sent to him the Nauglamir, found in the ruins of Nargothrond, where he find Mim and after killing him. This jewel became the doom of the kingdom after the death of Hurin, when King Thingol decided to set the Silmarill recovered by Beren and Luthien there, and asked the Dwarves for doing it, and they recognizing the garment, were bold and greedy leading into a fatal encounter with Thingol that caused the ruin of Doriath, so Hurin in his despair after the death of his children did more harm on time on Gondolin and Doriath.

[@angelasinger2953]

Thingol himself isn't exactly such a great guy

[@nathanielgordon9783]

There's also a tale in the History of Middle Earth "The Wanderings of Hurin", where Hurin, after his release from Angband brings ruin upon the remnants of the Haladin as well.

[@tonywang7416]

Húrin was cursed my Morgoth and will bring doom to anywhere he went. Since a Silmaril was in Doriath, the curse of Morgoth, oath of Fëanor and Doom of Mandos all contributed to it’s ruin.

[@tolkienismaster]

If I remember correctly this is Hurin, not Turin, who said: "Marrer of Middle-Earth would that I might see you face to face, and mar you asmy Lord Fingolfin did!"

[@CivilizationEx]

Whoops, I think you're right about that.

[@tttttt2244]

@@CivilizationEx when will you make another video about "Silmarillion" like this one with sound effects? )

[@CivilizationEx]

I am currently working on a series about the First Age, with much of the info coming from the Silmarillion, Part 2 of that series will be released today! But the sound effects were just an experiment for this video, and not to many people noticed or cared, so I don't think I'll be using sound effects much in the future. But I'm glad you liked them :)

[@TheDazzler420]

But Tolkien intended Turin to face morgoth at the end of time.

[@Babidi111]

damn that was tragic stuff

[@rogueascendant6611]

This is such an unfortunate event of Men that have been hit hard by Morgoth more than so painfully than the Elves becoming twisted and corrupted turning into an Orcs. I truly admired Turin for he has a humanity inside of him feeling pain, suffering, rage, despair then to happiness, noble and proud. In all he has the most humanity part of Middle Earth as he did not only meets with tragic event but also deep ingrained of rising from the cause and ending it all. Unlike Elves, Men easily change their desire to absolute view of their pleasure to something like evil intention. The Elves although has their own free will their nature and themselves is bound is Arda and for that is not so easily corrupted and fall to temptation of evil directly to the darkness. With the exception of those Elves captured by Morgoth that become Orcs as at that time the Elves were still fledgling, being not yet powerful enough to resist the dark side. Men will always be the most delicate of all race but have a stronger will to overcome many things and forsaw changes and hope upon them.

Shouldn’t the Halls of Mandos only hold the spirits of the Elven dead? I thought the spirits of deceased men will be taken by Eru Ilúvatar and will go somewhere only Eru knows

[@CivilizationEx]

Everyone is taken to the Halls of Mandos when they die so they can be judged. But Elves get to stay and live there, while Men and Dwarves are only there temporarily before being taken from the world by Eru.

[@tonywang7416]
