The western door of Moria did not stay closed that entire time. We know, for instance, that Gandalf used the western door to exit Moria during that time. Has anyone done a story on Tolkien mistake in using the word "Moria" on the western door, even though that name had not been used at the time the door was made?

Fun fact: Historically, blacksmiths did not take part in wars as a general rule. They were considered much more valuable making the weapons, tools, and armor that others used to fight the wars. Even when towns and cities were sacked, blacksmiths were often spared so they could continue to ply their trade for their new lords. This is, in part, why the last name "Smith" is so common.

So much death and destruction because of the inability to take rejection from a romantic interest in the stories of the Fall of Gondolin and the betrayal of his relatives against Luthien and Beren. Celebrimbor is a wonderful contrast to this in the way he treats Galadriel. Tolkien really did write him as such a noble and likable character, which makes his manipulation and fall that much more depressing.

As someone whos memory is highly based on geography your videos are just pure gold. I'm just digging into silmarillion and find myself being lost over all the locations here and there.

[@dominikszakacs7070]

To be honest, I first began to know the character of Celebrimbor when I started the Shadow series. They made me delve deeper into the character arc of Celebrimbor. I'm a real Tolkien fan, I really like the original Celebrimbor... but to be honest, I like the Shadow Celebrimbor better. It's maybe because that he gets more part to play in the game's storyline.... we get to know him better, even if that's not really part of Tolkien's works. But even in the game, something evil comes from Celebrimbor's creation... for example his New Ring. By the way, loved the video😊

[@Soulslayer612]

Did you know that the writers of the game collaborated with the screenwriters of the movies? If you consider the movies to be a separate canon, like a LOTRCU, then the games are in fact canon.

[@chriskammerer221]

I always think of the crafting of the Rings as the final curse of the Doom of Mandos, since Celebrimbor is Feanor's grandson. They were crafted to provide their wearers with the power and wisdom to protect their realms, but ultimately drove their doom. "On the House of Feanor the wrath of the Valar lieth from the West unto the uttermost East and upon all that will follow them it shall be laid also. Their Oath shall drive them, and yet betray them, and ever snatch away the very treasures that they have sworn to pursue. To evil end shall all things turn that they begin well"

Absolutely. That game series is amazing and I think it should be considered Canon because it honors LOTR so well.

Hello my frend! Another great story. Elves in video games and Tolkien lore are my fav race of people. I soak up any lore that delves into elves. After Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War game movies, i came here to learn about Celebrimbor. Although the lore from the games is not in the LOTR books it is also good because it runs in paralele with the ore and does not come in conflict with it. The story about how Celebrimbor is captured and tortured by Sauron is presented in the games but they also add a bit more lore to flesh out a nice story.

Feanor's first son, Meadhros is pretty heroic and wise. He tries to convince his farther not to abandon Fingolfin and to not burn the ships, hands over the kingship to preserve unity, restraints his brothers multiple times and even unites the elves and men in the Union of Meadhros against Morgoth after Fingolfin made his desperate challenge. Tragically after the death of his closest friend, Fingon, his mental state seems to suffer and driven by the oath he leads the second and third kinslayings.

*In Gollum Voice* BRIGHT MASTER!!!

[@aldariel744]

Can you make a video on why the elves had to leave Middle Earth to Aman after Sauron was killed? They had the power to live before they had the rings. What changed after that? The same question goes for Frodo and the others that went to Aman. Awesome video man! You're the best LOTR channel on KZbin!

[@NerdoftheRings]

Thanks so much! That is an interesting topic and one I'm sure I will be covering in the future. Thanks for the recommendation and for watching!

[@Retro_Floyd]

I really love your videos. Keep it up!

[@SneakyDeaky2]

Another great video!

[@Memeuniverse10]

This is the most interesting facts I enjoyed 👌, can't wait to see more of this.

[@Jules-gp6xb]

mad respect for Celebrimbor, who loved Galadriel even tho she married another, enough that he made her beautiful and powerful jewelry to help her grief and sadness over Middle Earth

How Amazon chose not to do this story the way it happened is stupid, what a mess they created

[@devilpupbear09]

In the body of elf or man, you are unchanged Celebrimbor!

[@eberco5]

Dude, who’s the one person not liking this video? Blasphemy!! Lol. Love the videos on the characters not in the movies. Helps to better understand the story.

[@BleakNote]

Its probably Talion. Dude's probably still salty about being left to die on a bridge.

[@AB_juls]

Such a great video! I really hope they do him and Gil Galad justice in the Amazon show.

[@NerdoftheRings]

Thanks! I hope so too. He definitely has potential to be a stand-out character on the show.

[@marcofdelos]

At this point dude, it's hard to say. They'll probably make him a trans elf lord, who betrays his people to join Sauron, and then starts making rings of power for hobbits.

@@marcofdelos I don’t know how people can be exited for an other “brand’s” butchering. Of course it’s gonna be a horrible gender/race turd.

Hi! My name is Scott and I'm a LOTR nerd! Just subbed. Thank you!

[@NerdoftheRings]

Thanks for subscribing Scott! Glad you found the channel!

[@herr_der_spiele]

Great background video. I will have a lot of work to watch all of them🙂

[@themouthofsauron2167]

Theory/video ideas: 1. What happened to Celebrimbor after Sauron's defeat? 2. What will have happened to Sam, Frodo and Bilbo if Gollum didn’t get the ring 3. What if Radagast got the one ring 4. What if Saruman did get ring 5. What happened if Sauron won the war of the last alliance? 6. Who is Celebrimbor ( who is his family how old is he ect.) 7. What if Morgoth won in the war of wrath? Ohh i Don't know if you have made a video of this this is only ideas

[@hansgreg1026]

Excellent information! Thank you!

[@Jahus]

Can you talk about the story of Shadow of Mordor / Shadow of War video games? It's not canon, but it can be interesting.

[@MourningCoffeeMusic]

I doubt Rings of Power has the guts to give Celebrimbor his true death, and I’m kind of upset that Galadriel will be taking Elrond’s place during the war. It’s hard to enjoy the show knowing it’s so different from true canon.

[@kai9755]

I’d happily watch a movie or tv show about celebrimbor
