Bombadil wasn't nearly as bad as I thought he'd be. The reason is he was played by Rory Kinnear who is an absolutely brilliant actor who's a master of pathos and presence. Best part of Penny Dreadful.

[@randyross5630]

Are you getting Orakei confused with Orc? Like all those Guys from the Two Towers were Orakei, not Orcs like can be seen in the Ranks of the Return of the King... Do You Even Know What you are Talking about? Also these are pre Sauron warping them to his Evil Minions, over Generations of Control, so they are Not Going to be Pure Evil Yet, just your Regular Sort of Evil... And they don't get Grown like Saruman did in the Two Towers, because Orcs and Orakei are Different, although they look similar except Orakei are Bigger and Tougher and have way better Moral and better at taking Orders... I don't see it weird one bit that Pre Sauron Orcs or Post Sauron Orcs Breed, and the need for them to have Maternal Instincts for their Off Spring, otherwise the only other Evolutional Option would be for them to have Numerous Large Litters to have a good enough Rate of Survival to Breed themselves... Cringe Scene, Sure, Why Not, But Pretending Orc are Orakei, that's some Lord of the Rings Noob Stuff!

[@randyross5630]

Oh Man! All the Anti Rings of Power People, are Just Pretending to be Lord of the Rings people, but anyone can tell they Don't Know the Difference between Orakei from the Two Towers, or Orcs as seen in the Return of the King! And Not even That, these Orcs are Pre being Sauron's Slaves for Generations, and Warped by His Pure Evil and Dark Magic, so it's Wrong to Demand these Orcs be close to Pure Evil like in the Lord of the Rings Movies, Oppose to just Evil like in the Rings of Power because again, this is Pre Sauron's Control of them for Thousands of Years and over a Hundred Generations... It's Not Hard Stuff if you actually Watched Lord the Rings! If you think Orcs are Orakei and grown in the Ground like Saruman the White did to raise his Army for the Second Movie than you Just Shouldn't Be Talking about this Stuff! We Get it you don't like Lord of the Rings and never Watched it, but to Sit Back Pretending you were such a Fan of Lord of the Rings and Rings of Power Ruined it is just Wrong, because you don't know anything about Lord of the Rings, except you don't think Black people should be in it because you Guys are Bigots!

[@randyross5630]

Rings of Power Critics think Orakei are Orcs, and that Orcs are grown in the Dirt like Saruman the White did to raise his Army of Orakei in the 2nd Movie the Two Towers! Orcs can be seen in the 3rd Movie the Return of the King, What Noob Lairs you People are, you have never watched Lord of the Rings sober have you, and not even Twice Drunk! Get Off Your High Horses Based Off LIES!!! I bet you don't even like Sci-fi or Fantasy, and watch Soap Operas and the View and Gossip with all the other Gossip Queens on the Block about what you all Hate...

No. Amazon decided Orc Families was the most important element to add to the story...

I... I've forgot that elven rings were last, it's time to dig up Tolkien's Bible once more

[@morgomirwd]

@@kahtyman7293 yeah they were made last and away from Sauron there by preventing Sauron to fully corrupt them like he did the Dwarf and Men Rings. This is kind of why Amazon had to put so much dialogue in the first two episodes about the elf rings not being corrupted. "I was there, he never touched them." "If what you told me was true Elrond, then these rings are free of Saurons corruption." But then that leads to the next question.. If they arent corrupted by Sauron in Amazons show, then why did he just sit there and watch them be made and not doing anything? 😂

[@fantasywind3923]

Orcs idea of amusement...torturing prisoners, "'Why alive? Do they give good sport?'" siad the orcs about their captured prisoners Merry and Pippin, so yeah Orcs love to kill stuff, love going raiding and pillaging, looting, love killing..of course orcs have variety of motivations, some served Dark Lord unwillingly: “They were a gang of the smaller breeds being driven unwilling to their Dark Lord's wars; all they cared for was to get the march over and escape the whip." And there are some who are faithful servants of Sauron, Grishnaks calls himself trusted messenger, he even seems like 'secret police' type, many orcs wanted to win their master's praise and rewards given to them ("'... Then you'll fly off with our prisoners, and get all the pay and praise in Lugbúrz, and leave us to foot it as best we can through the Horse-country.") They ARE evil, they are doing evil, they are horribly corrupt and depraved beings, they can be pitiable but it doesn't excuse their doings when they were on their own....and that was doing the same thing they did as servants of the Dark Lord perpetuating the same violence, orc tribes of the Misty Mountains had 'petty realms' of their own, but they were far from peaceful, and they hated other folk and often were hateful towards each other, feuds and treacheries among their own, lots of infighting etc. when they are slaves of the Dark Lord they oftne get dominated in their minds and wills and so become even more like instruments of destruction in their hands...they can rebel and think for themselves when they are not dominated and mind controlled through the projection of the Dark Lord's will but still they often gravitate towards evil, this is the only thing they know.

[@Tom-mk7nd]

​@@ecksearoh6283 That doesn't make them pacifists though. My interpretation is that orcs don't always like or fancy what Sauron orders them to do, however they do enjoy violence and fighting. Orcs left on their own would probably form raiding bands or slave societies. Goblin Town is a good example.
