The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

[Kyp]

I saw some episode, but i didnt really like it. Lotr is better in my opinion.

What are your favorite non-Lotr and non-The Hobbit Tolkien characters? Mine are:

1. Feanor
2. Thurin Thurambar
3. Finrod Felagund
4. Maedhros
5. Beleg
6. Fingolfin

Except Morgoth of course

In the First Age? Good question, i've always loved the evil side, i think the original evil is more mysterious than the well known elves and i've always been more interested in mystery.
I like the story of Eöl the dark elf or Mim the petty-dwarf, but the most mystical thing was ancient Utumno for sure, where all evil came from. It was the biggest and greates fortress that ever existed in Middle Earth. Similar to Moria but thousand times more bigger and deeper, even the godly valars could not destroy it because of its size. Unfortunatelly Tolkien did not say much about this place, the location is also unknown but its located somewhere in eastern Iron Mountains in North.
So i cannot say favourite character, just various places.

I half-watched it.
It was too stupid and bad, really bad. I have rarely seen a worse spin-off.
I agree with pretty much every negative opinion out there.
Even though it was expected, I still cannot wrap my head around the black elves, hobbits and dwarfs.
Maybe I'll watch the rest while doing other more productive stuff, like ruminating on the toilet.

I saw the episode 3 but i didnt see any woke or lmbtq. In the series woke is referred to black elves, black hobbits mostly, but thats all.

Like they aren't making Galadriel a man hating lesbian, or Elrond as soft and weak? As examples

I have no idea how did you get these infos. Galadriel is not lesbian, but heterosexual for sure, some scene with Halbrand also proves it. Sometimes the dialogues between them reminds me a little mild flirtation. I dont know why is she "man hater".

Elrond seems more masculine compared to Lort movies, just check this Moria scene:



In the Lotr movies, Elrond did not do anything except he stayed at Rivendell and cried.

I dont deny that this series was influenced by woke (black hobbits, dwarf, elf), but i think the alt-right is just exaggerating this influence now.
For example they claim that Galadriel is more masculine because of feminism, in the reality Galadriel had 100% same behavior in the First Age according to Silmarillion. So she was rebellious and vengeful when she went to Middle Earth from Valinor to punish Morgoth, although valars did not allow that. She showed her wild and warrior behaviour during the Kinslaying and several wars.
In late Third Age Galadriel was more mature, wiser and calmer, i think because of elvish ring Nenya, this is the reason why Galadriel became magical. These who dont know the canon, think Galadriel was always like that, but this is not true, she had a dark side from the past, you can see it in this both scene:





So yes there is some woke in the series and some fault too, but its enjoyable.

Who do you think is foxier [emoji1663] Galadriel or Tauriel? Do you think I'd stand a chance with either of them? [emoji848]

Love to watch it

I don't recall in Tolkien's work she being a warrior. She was never referenced as having been present at a battle. Women aren't warriors in his world. The chick from Rohan was the exception and she had to hide her gender.

I could be wrong. The last time I picked up anything written by Tolkien was 20 years ago but I don't remember women being warriors except for the exception I noted. I don't recall women being mentioned at battles and Tolkien always let you know who was at a battle.

And She?

Also Galadriel has a combat scene in the last movie of the Hobbit trilogy.
