@@rburk854 the entirety of the things they done with those hobbits are just so dumb....a nomadic wandering hobbit tribe would never have this sort of rules...because being a nomadic society...they would obviously HAVE TO be more open minded, more adventurous....again the Harfoots of lore...are not even close what the show is making....the Harfoots in the book lore were actually "more inclined to settle in one place" and they were HOLE DIGGERS, hell the entire origin of the word 'HOBBIT' comes from the name other clans had for Harfoots the holbytla the 'hole-builder'....in the show they don't make sense under any point be it realism or worldbuilidng perspective, and general attitudes and lore :). If any of the early hobbit clans/tribes would be nomadic wanderers it would be Fallohides...they were more adventurous, bolder, preferred to live in the forests, and hunting, were a northern branch of taller slimmer hobbits (so no diversity quotas they were basically like....scandinavian hobbits breed hahaha) so the Fallohides would be better suit for hunter gathere type society, but to know all that those morons at Amazon WOULD HAVE TO READ TOLKIEN works. :)

[@willo1345]

​@rburk854 They teach the kids not to walk alone, which would indicate that they would have a moral compass to not let someone walk alone. And, yet, they let them walk alone anyway. What a shit group of people. Also, why are there so many dumb chants in this show? "The sea is always right," might be one of the most uninspired chants I've ever heard from a seafaring nation.

[@workingman9019]

Future me- I was there. 3000 years ago. The day sauron wore a bad wig!

[@spbslinky7381]

Many years ago, I ran a middle=earth rpg set in the east. One of my players wanted to be a wizard and so played as the blue wizard Pallando. Along with a human knight, a wood elf ranger, a werebear rogue, and two dwarven brothers who occasionally fought inbetween drinking homemade dwarven ale. The campaign had the Easterlings as the main protagonists, the evil faction led by Alatar (the other blue wizard), who had been corrupted by the influence of Morgoths spirit. Alatar rode on a blue crystal dragon and had two balrog bodyguards. The party aided in the Easterlings civil war, and eventually succeed. Through many adventures the party travelled through enchanted forests filled with kaukareldar (evil fey), the keep of the frozen barrow king. The underneath, deep below the earth where the city of deep towers lay, ruled by the Nauglath (evil deep dwarfs), who tended the vats of Umalar (where Morgath created monsters). Through the swamps of cragmire barrow filled with mirelurk spiders, huge fell beasts, crebain and the great hag with her oloh-hai (trolls). The party learned how to free the good easterling from Morgoths influence and how to fight for their freedom. One of the most profound moments was when the players sought refuge in the elven city of Ithil-Rana (moon spirit) and found it empty and ransacked, only to learn that Morgoth had turned every man, woman and child into orcs for Saurons army. Also here, were the calcified remains of treants, one of the last known refuge for the entwives, as Pallando summarised. In the penultimate final battle on the Steppes of Hithlum, below mount Kratos, the fifty thousand strong easterling army and their oliphaunts fought against the now free easterlings, and their grizzly bear mounts. The party, along with the stone giants of Kratos, fought Alatars forces in Castle Azure, high up upon Mount Kratos. In an act of selfless sacrifice, the player of Pallando, frees alatar from the grasp of Morgoths spirit. Like Gandalf, Pallando is sent back to complete his task, to the surprise of the other players mourning from his death. The two blue wizards, now reunited as brothers, control the elements from high upon mount Kratos, to change the course of the battle below. While the rest of the party charge onto the battlefield, flying down on the backs of the giant falcons of Freya, who were summoned by Alatar. The battle is finally won and the players are exuberant with the victory. I ordered pizza for everyone as they sat back, taking a break for a bit. They really felt like they'd been fighting for their lives for the 3 hours that the battle had lasted. I then read the final monologue describing the end of the campaign, as they ate their pizza. As reward the players learned that the number of Easterlings that aided Sauron during the war was greatly reduced and Pallando earned the name East-helper, as referenced in the wiki. Everyone felt like they had actually played a part in the movies, it was such a wholesome ending. This would make for a better story than what these people are creating on Amazon.

[@Don9872]

As a big Tolkien nerd that sounds like it was a lot of fun. I’ve always thought setting a story in the east or south of middle earth, with factions in those places resisting and overcoming the tyranny of Saurons vassals, would make for some interesting stuff.

[@fifthhoven]

The eye is more a banner or vision (e.g. in Galadriel's mirror, or when being drained by the ring,), and also how the Orcs tended to refer to him. And it also had to do with how his gaze - and hand* - could seemingly search around the land (there is a cool part of that on Amon Hen where they split up after the first part in the book, which PJ represents by Frodo seemingly rushing towards Mordor, the tower and then the eye, and then taking off the ring). And maybe a window with red light in the tower of Barad-dur. But he was corporeal in LotR, and in any case never pointlessly took the literal form of an "eye". (Some other things in older times.) *In the book the eye and his grasp are ambivalent or equivalent in the scene mentioned, and there is also a drawing or painting by Tolkien of his arm and hand grasping out over Mordor. There is probably also a metaphrical description of that in the book. (I don't mean the different part after the ring is destroyed and he sort of forms a fist of smoke that gets dissipated by the wind. It's not in the movie.)

When designing his new black tower, did Sauron look at the footprints and decided where the toilets go? What about decoration?

This must be what it feels like to enjoy something from a franchise you don’t really care about, I never understood how people could like the witcher/halo/avatar tv stuff after what they did to those franchises, but I really enjoyed season 1 of rings of power because I guess I’m not invested in the franchise, I watched the movies, seems to have really rich backstory but I ain’t ever reading those books so it’s really cool to see the lore in tv format even if it’s change according to some

Looks like a re-run of the Picard series.

AJ: that looks cool Oj: yes Aj: wow that looks dumb Oj: yes

That scene reminded me of The Walking Dead when they encounter the whisperers for the first time

Just because there's next to no Harfoots in the trailer doesn't mean they're gone from the show. I'll still watch this as an average fantasy show because it doesn't impact on my love for the trilogy, but after season 1 its probably best to keep any expectations VERY low.

My favorite part was when Borat grabbed the ring and said, "you will never get this!" right before Holdor closed up the Gringott's bank doors on Eleven. This is a must watch, I need to know who Vader picks as the next sith apprentice!

05:10 oh the irony lol

[@darkstarmedia]

This drops on Judgement Day. Fitting

[@johnniewalker3134]

aww nice catch.

If you watch the little “behind the scenes” they have out, the hobbit knock offs are still there. This has the feeling of The Barbie movie where they cut the trailer just right without revealing what’s actually going on.

The reason people make adaptations is different from the reason people want adaptations.

[@DaanPunaan]

Notice how this and House of the Dragon trailers released an hour apart from each other. They're both looking expensive but will probably disappoint

[@Hoosier765]

Nobody goes off trail. Except when they do. And nobody walks alone. Except when we leave yo broken ankle ass. Haha

Celebrimbor still just an old guy in a nightgown. Dude is meant to the finest craftsman of his age, renowned across middle-earth, so where's the godamm finery!? Not one piece of metal in his whole attire. A fine circlet? Cool looking bracer? Na, just more androgynous robes, that'll be fine.
