An idea for the decoy script: A biracial half elf half orc ambassador who's a transgender pansexual Muslim atheist Buddhist from Sri Lanka as a new character.
Not inclusive enough.
@@DespotofAntrimagreed this script sounds disgustingly ableist
You forgot midgets! Lil people be people, too! Lollipop 🍭 Guild Represent
You forgot non-binary and switches between pansexual and lesbian.
Not enough wheelchairs.
Mordor should be a strict meritocracy, standing by the noble principles of
"You don't work, you don't eat. Also we got free drinking water. Drinking the tapeworms inside it is completely optional."
And put the Harfoots in heavy labour.
"You don't work, you don't eat." As God intended.
I tell my kids the same thing.
Robert Paulson's kids should have their own story arc.
A revenge plot!
It would basically be a Middle Earth version of the Revenant.
Hopefully we'll see them in season 3
To anyone who was paying attention, Amazon already tried to make a "GoT-style" show. It was Wheel of Time, and they literally made all the exact same mistakes, fucking with the lore, trying to make everything a college-brochure rainbow of diversity so that even families don't look related, and reducing men to subservient roles and turning it all into a vehicle for girl-power (which is ironic because the WoT already had a pretty progressive view on the roles of men and women in the world, but evidently men having any important role that women can't fulfill isn't good enough, only women are allowed to be special). This was the template, it was a spectacular mess, and they chose to learn nothing, so they deserve everything they get.
I must watch that show. I heard it was terrible.
I mean, yeah, but you are painting it with broad strokes. WoT's failings are a bit deeper than Girl power and fucking with the lore.
There are series that have played with the lore, added in girl power elements, and still pulled off competent story telling.
Congrats you have actually made a script that with some work could be a viable seasons 2. Throw in some smart harfoots who settled down in a nice place called the shire. Who hate their hat foot kin and thus call themselves hobbits. And have female harfoot join them becoming the first baggins or something. Have Gandalf fuck off to Rhun to investigate the weird magic ladies and everything’s in a good place. Also don’t even try to make something work between Black Legolas and town wrench just cut them totally from the script.
Embrace the non canonical nature of the show. Humanize Sauron and the orcs and demonize the elves. Have the elves bicker and fight over the crown. Throw in some more elf kin slaying. Meanwhile Sauron helps lead the races of men and orc together towards greatness. Where Sauron works to lessen the evil he brought into world by giving the orcs the chance to be something more then mindless cannon fodder.
Season threes conflict will be a mix of elvish infighting Sauron’s rebuilding. Morias still healing from the civil war but are mining Mithril freely and sell it to anyone who can afford it. And the big center piece Numenor and which faction they side with. Cut out the other evil counselor guy. Have the Queen be healed by some elf medicine or something. And the conflict will be between Elendil who sees the future in Sauron’s new world. And the Queen who remains staunch in her support to Galadriel and the elvish cause. Boom everything’s fixed. Portray ethnic groups in realistic ways. We can throw in some fun interesting easterling lore. And boom there’s out show.
@@neckbeardpig279 Do tell, which are these competently told stories you speak of?
@@21TheRonin Sure thing!
First off there is the Boys. They changed a lot of aspects from the comics. And added in more prominent roles for the female characters in the show. While still keeping the show awesome.
That's probably the best example of improving on the source material while still giving female characters in the show their due. And is probably the gold standard.
Then, in the world of animation, there is the She Ra remake. It lacks a lot of the nostalgia of the old Hanna-Barbara cartoon.
But I'd be freaking liar if I tried to claim that they didn't improve on the characterization and over all animation quality of the show.
Those are the two stand out examples. Where the lore was tweaked and more female characters in prominent roles were added. But they kept the soul of the show intact. And improved on the source material in many ways.
The thumbnail jokes were good, the story was even better.
Walter! I love your channel and your commentaries! Fancy meeting you here XD
"Sauron is now watching clips of Andrew Tate"
I literally spit my drink laughing when i heard that.
I chuckled at that, but when he started inserting stand-in Legolas into Lolita, THAT'S when I literally spit out my drink.
same xD
Oh "spit my drink" not "split my sides." How embarrasing >_< That's a wasted joke.
@@wesleythomas7125 who's ur crack dealer?
@@fireinthesky3379Know your dealer! It is me!
I was not prepared for that methril joke. It's been a while since I was caught off guard laughing like that. Very well done 👍
Omg, me too, that shit was AWESOME
Yeah that “decoy” script is too spot on. Pretty sure you have the actual season 2 script and were reading verbatim.
This got to be one of the most entertaining concepts for a show ever. My favourite character was Stand-in, what a wild fiesta!
Good lawd, that was hilarious! 😂
Sauron Tate is absolutely glorious, I'm basically laughing nonstop through the video lol
Sauron tate is Sauron's higher self.
Money soo big.
It's beyond amazing that a satirical youtube video is more coherent, better structured, and more entertaining than a 1 billion dollar TV series!
Why not hire a competent group with a proven track record to write and film this ? Why not ditch Amazons diversity hire list ( yes Amazon has diversity list with percentages of specific groups that they must include) and hire competent actors with proven ability ? I see a theme forming here .
I would actually watch your version of Rings of Power. My only critique is that I really want to see Galadriel as the psycho genocidal villain that she actually is, so please don’t give her a redemption arc in the third season!
Giving the worst character a positive light and every colored actor degenerative traits and villainy... Love it
What if her "Redemption" is about her coming to terms with the fact that she is the reincarnation of Morgoth?
LMAO I wish I knew Jeff Bezos email so I could send him this video 😂😂😂
That's retarded there's no such thing as just pure evil villains they all have their reasons and most of the time they're doing stuff for their people
But she ends up good by the books, so you need to explain that.
I wish I can go back to early 2000’s and be excited all over again to watch LOTR
I'd so like to be 18 again in 1998 so I could be an extra in LOTR!
Just play ragnarok. Movies and shows are shit now everywhere. Even the good ones are bad, like the Mando.
Well that's simple, just make a time machine.
@@LisaAnn777 please someone make a time machine
1st time I saw FOTR was in the theater when it was released. I was stunned. Couldn't believe they pulled it off.
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when Jennifer found out the guy she fired was hired by the competition, and wrote House of Dragon, the series about sex, murder and incest that crushed ROP and its inclusive safespace girlpower crap.
Rhaenyra was an idiot, selfish, deeply flawed but far more fascinating as a character than the psycho Galadriel became. She supported her absent gay poc husband and helped him escape with his lover, which is more interesting than the entire show. It's just better.
@@allykingston4429 every character in HOD is deeply flawed. that's why it's good.
@@scambammer6102 And the show doesn't pretend they're not. All of them are terrible.
@@allykingston4429 She did not helped him, she let him get killed, but his gay husband did let him live
A bad ass, heavily masculine Conan show would have been a banger. Nothing but action. Conan wanders the land making money as a sword for hire. He gets tasked with helping protect and transport a woman to her home, she is being pursued by bandits and assassins. Lots of blood, boobs, and fights later the woman he was escorting turns out to be a witch queen who takes back her thrown and banishes Conan and crippling him to a corner of the world. He eats steak, drinks whiskey, and works out all to buildup for him later to take revenge. Finds his way back to the castle, with some friends they usurp the throne and one beheading waiting to happen later, he becomes the king of the land. Then more boobs and fighting.
Goblin-Harfoots, Sauron becomes a full-on jock, and Disa( or Disanberg now) as a villainess. This is already better than whatever Rings of Girl Power season 2 is going to be. Thanks Despot!
They threw away a great show by rejecting this.
durin: why did you betray me disa? even the weakest stones stand strong within a wall. i can already picture it 😆😆😆
I see a future for you in decoy scriptwriting.
@@pachuko5192 11:49 it was from the video... you either didn't watch it all or didn't pay attention. just like the people you're making fun of. lel
@@DlcEnergy The people I'm making fun of didn't watch the video or pay attention to it? I did write that comment before finishing the video. You could have got me good, but instead you were overeager and didn't notice if your comment made sense or not.
@@pachuko5192 So my suspicion was correct. You hadn't watched it when you made that comment. That's the person i'm replying to. Someone who clearly hadn't watched it. Eventually watching it (most likely after reading my comment just now) doesn't suddenly mean my suspicion was incorrect.
And the reason i'm still suspicious you never realized is your comment still exists. Surely you'd realize YOUR COMMENT MADE NO SENSE and delete it. But you didn't did ya. lol
And my little joke at the end "just like the people you're making fun of" was obviously to mock the same people who don't care for the franchise they're destroying.
@@DlcEnergy lotta text to explain why your big gotcha failed. Very long, not here to exchange essays with you, it was boring I didn't finish.
The answer is for season 2 to start with Galadriel waking up distressed. She says, 'I just had the most awful nightmare, where I had fallen into hubris, evil and madness!'. Then the series can start again, with proper scripting.
Good answer.
Ur comment need to reach the show runner
I broke out in hearty laughter every time Sauron regurgitated Andrew Tate quotes.
This is a masterpiece. This is literally and literately the perfect reflection of the world in which we currently live in.
The fate of the harfoots is my favorite part. I just hope there are a few survivors so that we can have harfoot torture and suffering in future seasons as well.
It would be most cathartic.
I mean there should be no survivors which would explain why there was NO KINDS OF HOBBITS in middle earth this age. They died out completely and everyone forgot. Same as all the black people apparently since they dont exist once time comes for lord of the ring.
Harfoot-Goblins, man, so funny
Assuming they keep to that piece of lore they could always say the many kinds of people of color all sunk with Numenor.
The thought of Gilgalad going to town while high on meth is just amazing xD
You are killing it lately man, 3 absolutely brilliant videos in 3 days. This is top-tier, you deserve millions of subscribers.
I think you should make Galadriel spend some time with her secret husband Celeborn and force her to respect him instead of swanning off all over the world following her love interest Sauron, whom she obviously fancies.
I have already rewatched this video 3 times. This is brilliant 😂
Thanks for watching, glad you had a good time with it.
I am hearing during my mandatory workout sessions.
instead lol 'They' decided to go w/an all female production and writing team for the nxt go around.... *Do You Understand???*
What a great content creator, an artist at that. Really knows how to effectively incorporate comedic relief, with insightful ideas, and great editing! So glad I found your channel and going to watch your She-Hulk video right now😂
Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos and appreciate the effort I put into them.
The Andrew Tate Sauron is just gold!
I snort laughed at "decoy script." I love your videos so much.
You are dropping some excellent videos lately. You are now my favorite CZcamsr
Content creators who don't give a f#ck about people's opinions and speak their minds freely make the best content. Good job.
He is a rare gem in the rough
The Idea of Orcs saying "We hate bigotry!" Is so funny that I might actually wanna see it. lmao
15:03 'And we need a new villain! Because it can't be Sauron. Sauron is too likeable.'
/snort XDDDD
How to fix Rings of Power... Redo season 1 with an entirely new cast and hire writers that respects Tolkien's lore. Fixed. You can't fix the show by just making a season 2 with a better plot, because it HAS to have the whole season 1 as a established plot.
You can either do a retcon, or treat ROP as it's own thing and ignore the lore, but go full based so as to fix the previous season's mistakes.
How can someone be so right and so brilliantly on spot about this whole mess?
I'm obsessed about your LoTR videos. Simply a gold mine!
I’ve watched this like ten times and laughed my ass off each time. Thank you for making this!
Thanks for watching!
the absolute production value here is beautiful
Your almost deadly levels of irony are GOLD
If I ever die from a laughter induced heart attack, my phone will be in my hand with one of the Despot's videos open.
Hahaha! You, sir, have made me laugh my socks off! Thank you! Love your content
I would actually watch this unironically. Getting rid of half the cast is a smart move.
I look forward to following your screenwriting career.
Your plot has a big advantage: it’s utterly unpredictable. That makes it so interesting 😮
Omfg this is brilliant 😂😂 I'll never watch a second of rings of power and have now watched 100x more CZcams videos dissembling it than actual show. Your version of it will always be the official rings of power canon to me.
I've watched this many times now and Standin' losing his mind as the plot progresses still gets me all the time.
Lolitalus🤣🤣. This whole pitch is a gold mine!
I have come back to spin this one again, it is worthy of several views/listens. Your Rings of Power commentary is simply the best that has been done. I’m looking forward to the grilling season 2 gets and I’m wondering if they will lift some of your brilliant suggestions for a course correction.
"This isn't his first wench " You and your Irish accent make this one of my favorite videos and best insults ever spoken.
Holy shit this was hilarious. Haven’t laughed this much watching a video for a while. Your version of ROP would be infinitely better than theirs lmao
"A dog may bark at The Rings of Power, but he cannot go back in time and stop it existing."
Despot, I thought your _Velma_ rewrite was a riot, but ye gods, this bests it! 👏😆
Absolutely brilliant mate. Scathing, sarcastic, and fantastically witty......
LMAO. I was NOT expecting this, but I would not only actually watch and finish season 1 if this happened, but watch season 2 also!
You continue to produce unadulterated brilliance, my man. Keep up the great work!
Your version of this probably closer to canon
My respect for you, Sir Despot, has reached a level I didn't think possible. This is a splendid recap of the would-be season I would watch the hell out of. When Sauron turnee down Galadriel's suggestion of marrying (with her moving to Mordor, no less), I freaking LOST IT. Thank you!
Andrew Tate Sauron vs Balrog would be the single manliest piece of cinema since Conan, and it’s not even technically cinema. You are a fucking Chad, man.
Currently my favorite CZcams critique channel. 👌
This was unironically one of the best and funniest videos I've seen in quite a while
This is one of the funniest videos I've ever watched
That's the best praise I can give: I MOST DEFINITELY would watch this mate, no hesitation whatsoever
More quality content Despot! I look forward to amazon swiftly taking up your offer as show runner.
Yours is an awesome script. Still not enough to save that steaming pile of horse manure of a show. I think the only way to fix it would be having Galadriel wake up at the start of season 2, next her husband Celeborn, and say : " I had the weirdest dream ever ! " Then they discover their room is actually a jail where Sauron imprisoned them before taking Galadriel's form.
I would be a hundred percent invested in this show.
The Ide to make harfoots the ansestors to goblins is a really good one. That would surprise everyone and make a lot of sens. The non cannon drew elf and drew dwarf dont need more plot. Just kill them together with all the other non cannon people who was created to annoy the fans. Also make "not Gandalf" to really not be Gandalf. It would be better and make more sens if he was Saruman. But he can still be just about anyone or anything.
This actually made me hyped for season 2 despite what amazone have produced so far. To be clear, if amazone produces this it would redeem them for season 1
They won. They will add more pointless stuff and more Galadriel "GIRL POWER!" because they must push their politics. The only change is the budget is less.
Brilliant - deserves many more views, like 3 million at least, "He needs Elvis medicine. We must take him to Arwen's father, Stephen Tyler of Riverdale".
standing ovation and 45 minutes of applause! bravo! bravo!
Gigachad sauron is the best part of this
its been confirmed: sauron is a giga chad
This must be a thing now.
Despot, I too live in Northern Ireland and there is a tempest inside me. I have not seen what you have seen and you have not seen what I have seen!
This is so funny, i whish people writing ROP were half as creative as you! Keep on the great work
can we please make this happen?
that 15% user score for cuties was the whitepill i didn't know i was gonna get in the video haha. good video, killing it as usual.
This has to be your most underrated video
Some of these voice-overs were gold ngl xD
wtf, this story is incredible. i'd watch and buy merchandise.
Hilarious how Sauron is the good guy…. It’s an achievement! 😆
Gil-Galad only wanting Mithril so he can smoke Methril is hilarious.
You probably can kill all the characters you want but in the end, you cannot escape the MEDUSA. That creature will be your downfall. Nice script though, in a over the top gory way. Fear the Medusa.
Okay i am picky about what i will watch and im not really into TV or films, but you definitely have a high quality channel, a great sense of humor, and intelligence. Been enjoying your work for the last few days.
This was absolutely genius and very funny. Top entertainment
Glad you enjoyed it.
Andrew tate...just great
@@TempoLOOKING yeah loved sauron tate
and pedhophile stand in legolas going crazy because he's being followed
If any of the power’s that be cared what I think you would have the job. Excellent script.
They said they're only hiring women now, I made this video to show them that not all is lost and they cast me aside in favour of more women, but I will have my revenge...
My solution for harfoots: hungry troll. Turn it into a horror survival. The fat one goes down last.
Stand0in Legolas Descent into Madness.
I can already see the emmy prizes you would gain for this, for he would be very relatable to Hollywood.
Out of all this pure fun I bursted into a 5 minute laugh on this "a dog may bark at the furnace...." rofl
Haha that was surprisingly entertaining and well put together! Well done sir !
Starts off a pisstake but develops into a complex and compelling drama 😂
Would watch your version. It might not be safe or sane, but it is hilarious and entertaining.
Saurons arc ! 🤣
its killing me with laughter!
hes just having the time of his life !
Imagine if Amazon indeed hire Despot as their new showrunner, that would be kinda cool
Dude, thank you for the laughs! And seriously, I'd really love to see this version of RoP. It would be both awesome and genious, keep in style with the previous season's disregard for canon, BUT makes for a Game of Thrones-story in Middle Earth, which is just what the world needs right now.
So much better than the actual script.
Fuckin brilliant. I haven't had a laugh like that in a while 😂
Your version is totally awesome! Just listening to the script is infinitely more entertaining than the show itself
It's not just the fact that it's written terribly and terrible acting it's the fundamental and the core of the show crapping all over everything we know that is right and good
The thing I love most about your parody video is how you (I'm guessing intentionally) make the same mistake the actual show makes. Another season of Rings of Power where the rings themselves are treated as an afterthought. Priceless.
You are/have the most interesting, talented and incredibly capable mind I've come across in a very long time. Thank you.
Your content is high quality, your channel will certainly become very popular in the future
I laughed hard at alpha widow galadriel
Loving this!!! Metheryl and Buckfast. Sounds like a great time😂😂The Zelda content works so well too
Glad you noticed! BOTW soundtrack is excellent.
Sauron Tate is one of the best things I’ve ever seen.
