Why The Rings Of Power SUCKS Part 4 - A Scene Comparison

Like the gift that keeps on giving the rings of power is back as guyladriel continues her quest to be the most unlikeable character ever. So follow me as I compare her mission to Eregion to Aragorn's journey to Rivendale

[@Avarn388]

I saw a comment from a ROP defender who said we shouldn’t expect ROP to be as good as the Jackson films and my response is why shouldn’t we? It’s easy to forget but Peter Jackson and the cast and crew worked incredibly hard to make those movies what they were. Technology wasn’t as sophisticated as it is now and yet they came up with all these creative techniques, bigatures, props etc. to make Middle Earth real. When paired with stellar writing, the rest was history. Yet this sad sack of a series can’t even bother to properly light a nighttime scene yet alone have any depth with its characters. Seriously, it’s insulting this series cost so much and is handled to two showrunners to make Dan and Dave from Game of Thrones look better. At least those two could adapt material decently.

[@superspicysoysauce8231]

Somehow Hollywood is creatively bankrupt that they making dumpster fire out of hundred millions.

[@majkus]

Because Jackson's LotR was lightning in a bottle, as the saying goes. All the ingredients came together, often by accident, to produce this masterwork. Even Jackson could not duplicate the feat in the Hobbit films-not even close. Few people expected TRoP to be anywhere near as good as Jackson's films. But even those with reduced expectations have been sorely disappointed for the most part.

[@reek4062]

Peter Jackson showed contempt for the book. The props, miniatures and cgi of those films are great, but the writing is terrible.

[@GholaTleilaxu]

In Lord of the rings, Galadriel didnt need armour or to act like a toxic man. She was feminine and just her presence was so powerful the entire fellowship, 11 grown men,were quiet and bowed their heads down. She didnt need to start naming her titles or punch holes into a wall or be condescending jerk. A very feminine female character was the most powerful character in the movie. If thats patriarchal to woke people, then they must be crazy. Btw. Thank you for another video. I love these comparisions.

[@fatalshore5068]

Beautiful and terrible. Honestly her monologue is up there with my favourite moments in the trilogy

[@reek4062]

''A very feminine female character'' Tolkien gave her the name Nerwen (= man-maiden) and described her as of Amazonian disposition.

[@valtterivalo]

Cate Blanchett's portrayal perfectly captures the kind of woman who leaves men speechless and fumbling when she enters a room. All men know that feeling, and it's one of respect and admiration. Men are, however, absolutely incapable of taking seriously a woman like this iteration of Galadriel by the actress whose name I frankly couldn't care enough about to look up.

[@GholaTleilaxu]

In the Lord of The Rings movies Galadriel is the most powerful being on Middle Earth, she can project her power at great distance, unlike the limited AoE wizard Gandalf.

[@Chickenbowser]

These side by sides really show just how lacking the Amazon fan fiction really is. There was so much love and detail that went into the movie trilogy to where it never feels like you're watching a movie. Where as in Jeff Bozo's Money Pit everything just has this layer of cheapness and disinterest to it. The designs of the world and the characters look like they were made by a group of larpers on a shoe string budget but the character are portrayed without the passion a dedicated larper would give it.

May I also say, as a horseback rider, the DIFFICULTY of riding like that when trying to save Frodo, means they went to the difficulty of hiring an expert double.

[@gelchert]

The best part about the _Lord of the Rings_ scene is that in the book, Arwen wasn’t in it at all. Instead, it’s a male elf named Glorfindel. Despite that, Peter Jackson & co. found a way to introduce Arwen earlier in the story, in a way that felt organic and didn’t detract from any of the other characters. I doubt Tolkien would have approved, but it’s a far better adaptational choice than anything the _Rings of Power_ idiots are capable of.

[@reek4062]

Sigh. PJ used Arwen literally at the detriment of Frodo. In the book at the Ford of Bruinen Frodo defied the Nine, refusing their summons: the fact that he was able to defy them on his own, while being severely injured for two weeks, showed his resilience. Jackson's Frodo however is near-unconscious and worthless, and his Arwen says a stupid one-liner.

[@AbisaiBonOv]

But Arwen does appear in the books. She just doesn’t take big part in the story but it is a meaningful part

[@chamuuemura5314]

Even though the Weathertop/Arwen at the river scenes were outside the canon/lore, they did well to adapt the story to screen. Introducing Glorfindel as well as Tom Bombadil would’ve complicated the films. The tv show not only needlessly fills out the cast but adds more non-canonical characters and non-canonical and mostly unpleasant additional characteristics of existing characters. In the end none of the main characters are likable and there are too many of them. The show feels like a giant frat/sorority party that the audience feels like we’re the only ones not invited.

[@reek4062]

No they didn't. Frodo is butchered at Weathertop and the Ford of Bruinen; he's stripped off his courage, resilience and inner strength. Of course, Peter Jackson had contempt for Tolkien's story and characters. The Hobbits couldn't be the heroes, so he degraded the Hobbits, Frodo in particular, in favour of Aragorn (who he also butchered).

I never watched past episode 1 of season 1. How Galadriel was portrayed was just too terrible for me. I only seen reviews and criticisms to see if it improved. Nope. After some thought, I think I figured a good way to describe Galadriel in Rings of Power. Orc-like. She lets her friends get beaten, she fights and threatens allies, she asserts her position with screaming and yelling. She’s like an orc chieftain, nothing like a true leader as Tolkien writes. Actually, does anyone willingly follow her, like 100% have her back? First scene is her soldier’s mutinying, after she let the troll beat them bloody.

[@F1fan4eva]

I've never clicked on a video this quick. I'm addicted to these scene comparison. I find you very observant and eloquent in your critique.

[@blaquemargin]

That may be so, that Frodo was "useless" in this scene and that Glorfindel was actually here instead of Arwen... ...but you gotta remember Peter Jackson and co. saw the whole script and the whole three movies by their timeline and constraints. I think this was a good choice despite it because it ties everything together throughout the movie series. THE MOVIE SERIES. It's more than just "oh, this needs to be truthful to the books". It's about the whole picture that Jackson and co. saw and had to make work in the favor of the limits and restraints of a MOVIE. I truly understand why, as a book fan myself, why the movies aren't 100% truthful. Imagine if it had been a TV series; can you imagine how AMAZING it would have been in Jackson and co.'s hands back then?? RoP, however, is NOT a movie series. It's a TV series. It is atrocious, ugly, asinine, and insulting as not only a TV show, an adaptation, and as anything remotely related to Tolkien's work, but it made changes that don't make sense throughout its runtime-and let's not even talk about their own lil' fanfic world, the creators' obscene hubris, or the things that pull you out of Arda. It's just....you literally cannot compare the two, LOTR and RoP, when they are two different mediums, for one, made for two different reasons, for two (one being an as-faithful-as-POSSIBLE-considering-the-challenges adaptation and the other being a soulless, nonsensical "DEI" cash grab), and have two completely different mentalities in their make. I really do get why diehard Tolkien fans may (not always) be disappointed in anything Tolkien that's been adapted in the past 40, 50 years because none of them are truly faithful, including the LOTR movies. But there's a difference, I think, between "being faithful scene-for-scene", which is nearly impossible (especially, again, as a movie) and carrying the FEEL of faithfulness, as is what Jackson and co. did. Spiritual faithfulness, so to speak. My favorite book of the trilogy is Two Towers, so I was anxious when the movie came out. But I was blown away by how incredibly moving and true the story, the world, the acting, the sounds, the music, the sets, the FEEL of it all was. It FELT like something Tolkien may have approved of despite everything that was different. It FELT like I was in a new world. It FELT like it was, and was documented TO have been, made with love and care. Sacrifices had to be made, but they managed it and captured it beautifully. Epicly. Sincerely. And timelessly! Rings of Power?? The FUCK outta here. It feels soulless, even down the music and sounds! Listen to the Balrog for instance. One sounds like a furnace, a monster furnace come to life, and the other sounds like...a generic monster roar. Bleh. No imagination. No innovation. Newbie 15-year-old writers can make a better fanfic and be more truthful than this POS. I'm tired of people not understanding, even after all this time, why TLOTR works and RoP doesn't. Gotta remember, first and foremost, they are two different mediums with different constraints. Sheesh. Get over yourselves, die-hards. You're embarrassing us. 😔 Thank you for this amazing video, Jedi!! I agree 1000000% percent.

It was always a bad idea to take an otherworldly and mysteriously powerful character like this and dump her into the muck, remove the magic, and make her a stone-faced swashbuckler. They would've been much wiser to reserve her the way she was in the books and Peter Jackson movies, and maybe utilize her in specific moments, like creating a mist to hide an army or show up to magically send something like the proto-Ringwraiths packing.

[@tranquilthoughts7233]

I find it hilarious that the writers of rings of power try so hard to deminish every male character and make their galadrrrrrrriel a girlboss slay queen and in doing so strip her of maybe her greatest achievement in the lore only to give that very same achievement to elrond, a man. In the lore Galadriel was the only one that Sauron could never deceive. In rings of power galadrrrrriel is the first one to be deceived by sauron.

We have Arwen and Eowyn both taking up swords and stand up against the wraiths in LotR. We have the glorious "I am no man" line from Eowyn. While LotR is mainly focused on male characters, it says a lot when the women in the story appear way more badass, strong, yet relatable than young Galadriel. There's so many great examples of badass women in fiction. Ripley comes to mind, among others. How is that modern writers nowadays get this so wrong? I love masculine and strong women in fiction, but any character (man or woman) with stupid overpowered plot armour becomes boring to watch.

[@reek4062]

In the timeline of ROP, Galadriel was a rebellious warrior... so naturally we won't see the same character as we did in LOTR.

[@nordvestgaming1238]

No she wasn't... in fact by that time herself and Celeborn had ruled a fiefdom under Gil-Galad before moving east and FOUNDING the realm of Eregion and ruling it for ~600 years before Celebrimbor took over ruling Eregion. Galadriel then moved further east to what would become Lothlorien around the time of when ROP takes place, which as we all know Galadriel and Celeborn would eventually become the defacto Lord and Lady of after the War of The Last Alliance though they didn't neccessarily flaunt it. There is effectivley zero evidence that Galadriel ever had a "rebellious warrior" phase. Sure she may have had a rebellious phase (though Tolkiens legendarium was ever changing and he had multiple different ideas about that time of her life) but that was thousands of years before the events of ROP. This version of Galadriel is entirely manufactured to fit a girl boss stereotype and shares nothing in common with the Galadriel of Tolkiens writings besides her name.

[@littlearvin1641]

@@nordvestgaming1238 Actually, Galadriel's rebellious streak isn’t out of place in Rings of Power. Early on, she was strong-willed, ambitious, and defied the Valar by leaving Valinor - that’s pretty rebellious. While Tolkien didn't focus much on her being a warrior, there are hints of her strength and independence. Yes, she and Celeborn ruled Eregion and later Lothlórien, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t have a more aggressive, rebellious phase earlier. ROP just leans into that side of her, taking some creative liberties, but it's not totally off.

[@ryanrussell6954]

I can't tell if it's virtue signaling to call out the black elf being put in chains two seasons in a row or not. I really didn't even notice that when I watched it. In my mind, this showed the writers weren't thinking too much about the person as much as their designated acting role, which I can appreciate. I think people calling it out are the ones too hyper focused on that. FFS, half the time people complain the show reflects too many real world issues, and the other half of their time they complain about the black elf being put in chains or killed by ghosts first. Make up your minds.

[@matheussantinello1177]

I also compared this scene with another one in LOTR, when thinking about choices and consequences for the plot. In LOTR Gandalf is fearful of going through Moria and advices against it. Getting there, they are confronted by the Balrog, and Gandalf's fear is confirmed. Gandalf was fearing something truly terrible, something the Fellowship could not fight, and he sacrifices himself to save the team, and they flee. So going through Moria had a real and IMPACTFUL consequence. In ROP, when Elrond and Galadriel are going to Eregion, they find that broke bridge. Galadriel advices against going through the south path. Elrond chooses it anyway, since he doent the trust the ring. Getting there, they are confronted by the Undead, and Galadriel's fear is confirmed. But are they truly terrible? Can't they face it? At first it seems like it. They are unkillable. So what is gonna happen? Will everyone but Elrond and Galadriel die? Will Elrond or Galadriel be mortally wounded? Will this make Elrond rethink about his thrust in Galadriel, as she was right this time? So what happens is thar one undead kills one of the elves. Then 20 undead appear. The elves cant kill them, but then Elrond recalls a way to do it, and then they just destroy all the undead one by one. And it seemed really easy. And the big consequence is that one of the elite elves died. Might seem like a big deal, but is not impactful at all. The audience doesnt even know the elf's name, he was just introduced, how can we care? Not even his teamates seemed to care all. And the whole situation was so easily solved after that, i wonder if it really was that much of a trouble going that path Galadriel adviced against.

Why everyone is crying so bad when it comes to this show. It isn't that bad. Dont compare this to a masterpiece of Peter Jackosn movies.

[@jedibrooks7235]

How is making a video with reasonable points crying? Telling me it isnt that bad is not a great pitch

[@Debate_Bot]

Pretty good video, earned a sub

La série est une honte à Tolkien et au travail que PJ à effecté avec la trilogie...

[@5quepasa]

This is the worst kind of criticism, more like Cinemasins than honestly looking at what the filmmakers are doing and saying. Just a terrible video

[@jedibrooks7235]

Tell me what the filmmakers are doing or sayinh when they have a group of elves not even notice tgeir teammate almost die. Explain it for me instead of dissing my work
