- Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 1 is over but Amazon prime video just released the Making of Season 1. With 6 minute special X-Ray making of episodes showing behind the scenes of Rings of Power. Now not many are convinced that Galadriel is a good character or that Sauron is worth watching. But can the showrunner interviews convince audiences that LOTR: Rings of Power is worth watching?

#LordOfTheRings #RingsofPower #Amazon - Zábava
The making of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, where Amazon reveal that behind the scenes the show was even worse! This is part 1 of what I think will be a 3 part series (having already recorded the first 4 making of parts). And BOY believe me do you get some absolute gold in this show, from the showrunner himself no less lmao. I dread to think what's in the last 4 parts that I've not watched yet! Also with Disney Plus's willow coming up alongside National Treasure, I think we'll have more reviews soon. So let me know what you thought of what you saw in the video, and which reviews would you prefer to see, willow, national treasure? Both or something else? Let me know your thoughts below and as always, thanks for watching :)
I have been waiting for this! 😂
Your thumbnails need you, or an instantly recognisable symbol that represents you. Otherwise your videos kinda blend in with the feed and I have scrolled past them before.
Edit: Nerdrotic for example is instantly recognisable. Their thumbnail game is top tier.
Cheers for what you do. 👌👍
If galadriel was my troopy..... I'd have fragged her.
12:00 In Tolkien, an elf called Amroth actually DOES try to swim to Middle Earth from his ship. The result? He drowns, because that's obviously what happens when you throw yourself into the sea!
Even better than the She-hulk ones! 😂😂😂
She's been on the same quest for over a thousand years but has gained nothing in the way of wisdom or tact.
And her husband is still on the run!
or apparently looked at a map.....
ha, just like a woman
Strange she didn’t stop and ask directions… or maybe she did and her face curled into its typical snarl and frightened passers by to death.
She had the same dagger the whole time. Weapons hadn't advanced one iota that whole time.
Peter Jackson’s LitR: “to give Galadriel a more ethereal quality, we hunk twinkling lights that would reflect in her eyes- it’s barely noticeable, but it helped to make her seem more magical”
Amazon’s the Rings of Power: “we figured our ice troll would be in ice, so we put ice on him. And fur, because we figured ice is cold so what would a troll need if he’s cold? Fur”
Yeah, keep hiring based on race, gender and sexuality instead of basing it on skill and merit. It’s working great!
This is such an unfair thing to say. The artists working on this show probably did the best they could with what liberty they had. These arent jobs you do because you have no other choice, these people are probably very passionate about their work. The all thing about the "icy ice troll" isnt stupid, it doesnt show a lack of talent or whatever, in fact it actually shows that some people did put some thought into what they were doing because they cared about these details and making the show more believable. The fact the production have nothing more to say or show in the behind the scene is where the cringe is. And this is not on the artists behalf, and more importantly this has nothing to do with people's race, gender and sexuality. You better watch you own biases to begin with.
@@m.poppins4843 What you said should more of your own biases then anything. The OP is right. This is the kind of show you get when you care about trying to make yourself seem more pious then other people by destroying the perfectly good work of someone else more talented then they ever were.
@@m.poppins4843you are right, it should not be. But Amazon, showrunners and actors made it very clear during the promotion that it is very much about race, gender and sexuality. ESG based hiring practices are not a myth, and it shows on the end result, in RoP and so many other productions.
RoP was class A, first grade, dog shit and the high ESG score doesn't help.
@@m.poppins4843 if this is what they could the best, they not really talented 😂
@@m.poppins4843 Agree, it was P.J that brought that tiny nugget of unknown, not noticed but of extra work.
He was aware and excited about all of the obsessively extra attention to detail.
You get that from the set design, artists e.t.c but you DONT get that from the people higher up.
It moves from a passion project at the bottom of the hierarchy and by the time it reaches the top it is full of obvious corporatism, superiority complexes and thinking they are better than the source material.
It all makes sense now. Whoever wrote this clearly didn’t know what they were doing and the actors didn’t ask questions.
Questions are dangerous and racist.
correct, they wanted to get to the bank as fast as possible, before this garbage was revealed for what it was, pure trash.
And the director carried a Remington pump action to settle disputes.
The actors are mostly there for work. They know if there's too many doubt, they may lose future works.
They didn’t have access to the source material, so of course they had to be creative.
"20 years is an entire lifetime for a dwarf."
I'm sorry, what? Dwarves live several centuries, in Tolkien's world. 20 years may not be "the blink of an eye", but it's not a massive portion of their life, either. It's maybe 5%. For a human, it would be the equivalent of not seeing your friend for 3-4 years. A while, to be sure, but not most of your life or anything.
YES! This was exactly my immediate reaction: "Um what? Dwarves live for hundreds & hundreds of years. It's not a lifetime." (I then burst out laughing because of them showing the 'hand on shoulder' scene. Was that part of the show? Because all the interesting bts parts & filmed scenes seem to have been the ones they cut out).
In the Fellowship book, Gimli mentions that Balin was close to 600 years old. 20 years to a dwarf is like 6 months to humans.
ROP producers: Dwarves are like Mass Effect Salarians when it comes to lifespan.
Plus, Durin was a prince. You'd think news like the marriage of a royal would be heard even in neighbouring countries. At least a notice and gift to the elves to be nice once in a while
@@dariovirga7711 Would it kill you to pick up the phone and call every once in a while? :>
You know what annoys me most about the Harfoots? How frequently they reference their damn feet. Hobbits don't talk about their feet. Their idioms don't wax lyrical about their feet. They're just their feet! It's just proof to me that these writers and showrunners don't care even a little bit about the characters and only view them thru purely surface-level characteristics.
Social media has made newer generations obsessed with physical appearances.
Admittedly they did have 'I promise not a hair will fall off his foot" as an idiom for keeping someone safe in Tolkien's original. But that's about the scope of the foot references in there.
Riri: My Iron heart is bigger than my iron feet.
To be fair, the writers are pedos..
Are you kink shaming the harfoots?! Thats it im gonna cancel you on twitter!
People think Saruman scoured The Shire...he actually just hired the Harfoots.
Oh! You're right!
I'm not sure the Harfoots are familiar with _any_ form of cleaning.
Probably the Sarumans brigands where harfot mercenaries.
This is a show I'd watch
Gil-galad: As long as nobody looks for Sauron he won't be doing anything evil
Galadriel Finds Sauron and makes him evil
Also Galadriel: surprised Pikachu face
Oh gods! Youre completely right! I didnt even realise it but in this show if Galadriel had ACTUALLY gone back then nothing bad in the show would have happened (except the Harfoots) because she makes Sauron!!! That just makes the failing of the showrunners even worse!
@@silvercrescent1264 Yeah, when Gil-Galad says it he sounds like a retard but it turns out he got 4d chess big brain.
Don't forget, they said they wanted the audience to be uncertain whether or not he was bad, so they wrote a heavy handed redemption arc on purpose. They've ruined the morality and legitimacy of their central characters on PURPOSE for a tone deaf intrigue. It's so fucking bad lol.
They made Gil-galad an a-hole and he was right anyway xD
In ROP everything happens because of: Destiny? If Ful Galad had let Eviladriel keep looking for shadows She would had never found Sauron.
Did anyone else immediately get excited when it said on the thumbnail “pt. 1” seriously, how many stupid things can the writers say? Disparu’s videos are sooo much more entertaining then any of the “Entertainment” coming out now-a-days, lol! Keep up the good work Disparu
I get you. This is a gold mine for Disparu
I think it's safe to say the wolf was building up confidence to attack them cuz the fact is he was already aware of how evil they were! Being killed by a harfoot is evidently worse than possibly starving to death. So good on that wolf for being so clever!
Maybe the wolf smelled the Harfoots and thought, "Bleah! They scent of stinky unwashed feet, clothes, and hay! I'm gonna go kill me a deer!"
@@daveeyes 🤣 If canines are so strongly drawn to pungent aromas, I can only imagine how they smelled to make the wolf go "Nah!!!"
@@daveeyes Dammit, beat me to it.
Disparu has really outdone himself this time! One of his funniest videos 😂
Nori actress: "We keep away the predators we don't want."
Disparu: "The predators we want are already Harfoots." 🤣🤣🤣 and so much more!
Disparu is holding his breath anxiously waiting for RIRI "IRONHEART" to come out now that ROP and SheHulk are in hiatus. He is like the kerosene that needs a dumpster fire to truly flourish
Hopefully he never runs out of very subpar TV shows
@@conormurphy4328Well, that depends on if Hollywood will ever go bankrupt or not.
Sadly Marvel’s Ironheart won’t hold a candle to Japan’s offering.
@@shayla106 Hollywood and media in general is willing to operate at a loss in order to gaslight and demoralize the public at large. Straight out of the Edward Bernays playbook, considering his nephew is the founder of Netflix.
As much as that sucks at least we get more spicey Disparu vids.
Glass half filled
We're also getting Agatha Harkness, _and_ The Mx Marvels. Technically Echo too, although I doubt anyone will even notice.
Seeing Gal's actress in interviews is my biggest gripe with the series, and there are too many gripes to count. She seems to ooze charisma off screen, so how the heck was the directing so bad that she was such an insufferable beast of burden on screen? I feel like the director had to tell her every three seconds, "Stop seeming human! You have to sell how charismatic she is! Give us resting b**** face!"
I have to agree here. In the interviews, I find Morffyd (sp?) quite charming, and I sort of hate to admit it, really lovely to look at. How did the directors so completely fail to capture that on camera? Oh, and that accent is just the cherry on top!
@@dbf1dware I actually had no idea she was such a lovely person, even physically speaking, seeing the show. Her personality in the show is so overwhelmingly vile that I physically could not see she was attractive. It was that bad. I do not even know how it is possible to be that bad at directing that you can override basic biological perception, but they managed to do it profoundly well.
It's because they made her act like a man, which she's not good at
The more they talk about Galadriel, the more I think they crafted her after some mutated version of Feanor. The hot headed elf who rashly acts out against his kindred and dooms many to death. But honestly I think assuming they even know who Feanor is, is giving them WAAAAAY too much credit.
Go look at that star on her armor and tell me no one has considered it.
For all my Fëanorian apolegetics, even I will admit qualities like suggesting murder to get boats is _bad._
It's like they took all the worst of Noldorin tendencies and just shoved in all of them, with none of the redeeming qualities.
They tried to write female Feanor but forgot to give her any virtues which showed in Feanor. She is a coward, unclever and generally lacks any talant. Or what is more likely: writers also don't have any virtues and physically couldn't give some to Galadriel.
@@Olivia-W oh shit, they really had her mimicing the kinslaying on numenor. My god.
@@1Plebeian In a more competent story, I imagine this could be an interesting "become what you have been fighting" scenario, and/or Galadriel having PTSD, but they bungled it up so badly she comes off as a psychopath instead.
@@Olivia-W It's bad even if they found a way to do it well. I don't like those ideas either tbh.
The actress's personality is much better than her fictional character. I have seen interviews with her, she is more humble, more cheery and more fun than Galadriel is in this show. Writers should enhance characters, here, they just held her back.
It's just such shame, really. Going through the whole behind-the-scenes thing, i'm farily certain where all the money went: Into preproduction work that was scrapped. What we were given are not 60m per episode, but just a fraction of that. The whole thing reeks of corporate medding, rewrites and different showrunners coming and going for multiple times. In other words: What is now the show, is not what was pitched and was stuck in production hell for a looooong time. Rings of Power as it is now is probably just an attempt at minimizing losses.
@@Donnerbalken28 sash. Yes. One of the smartest comment on how things are.
“Elves sink” she’s a witch!!
I mean, Sauron found Galadriel in the middle of the ocean. What? And why him? This show feels like it's a highschool production/dramatization.
I could easily make a more coherent story, and I don't even write professionally for a living. Apparently, these writers shouldn't either.
Thats what I was thinking. The writing in ROP seems so amateur, I dont think that it would take a professional writer to do a better job than this. Pretty sad what $1b could buy.
According to one of the interviews, we were supposed to conclude that Sauron was secretly mind-controlling Galadriel, forcing her to swim to him. That's why he switched personalities in the final episode from "I don't want this" to "you have fallen for my brilliant plan".
_High School Ainulindalë_ , starring Ashley Tisdale as Sharpaydriel.
When it's comment worthy that they put ice on the ice troll you know you're dealing with creative geniuses.
Hey, everybody get's excited when they first time encounter palette swapping.
-Look, I turned my lion monster into a shadow lion!
I just finished watching all of the appendices and "making-of" material on the LotR extended edition disks and those interviews showed TONS of people who each had more artistic ability and talent in their little finger than in everyone in the RoP cast and crew combined. You could tell that Peter Jackson and Co. poured their whole souls into the movies. And the final project attests to that! RoP just seems like an assembly line operation to produce the next product for us to consume. These interviews were so shallow and devoid of heart.
I remember hearing that when Bernard Hill needed a seat to rest on set, they built a stool fit for Theoden because they were just that into the production.
thats usually what happens when you put like 10 years of your life on a project versus what... 2 years for double the amount of screenplay...
This just makes me want to sit down and watch all 20+ hours of the BTS material from the Jackson trilogy, all over again.
I know. That stuff was absolutely amazing to watch. And witnessing the passion they all had for the project was inspiring and heartwarming.
In Morfydd Clark's defense, as a plank of wood I totally believe that sinking is something totally foreign to her. So she must think it's an elf thing.
Honest question, since Legolas is able to walk on the snow without sinking into it, are elves just lighter? Theyre tall yet put less pressure on the ground, so they must be less dense and therfore more buoyant.
Would they be able to sink?
@@MediumRareOpinions it's mentioned in the books that elves learn to walk like that
@@MediumRareOpinions Controlling the weight you exert on the world through magic is a learned skill, though there might be Elves to whom it comes more naturally. Nonetheless, there have definitely been Elves in the Legendarium who sunk and drowned at different occasions, so yes, water can be just as dangerous to them as to other people, regardless of buoyancy.
How is it that Morfydd has such a lovely smile and yet that one scene in the show was downright horrific. I thought that she was just incapable but now I'm thinking that the direction was just really THAT bad.
I wonder if they deliberately removed any shot with a natural smile in the edit.
I would not be surprised if there were *many* takes on the cutting room floor where she smiles like a normal person.
She's probably fine IRL, but I think we're looking at awful writing and direction and a limited range.
She looks pretty smiling, that is why they had to remove those shots. Can't have a beautiful woman acting cute, men might actually like that and we can't have the male audience liking her.
@@rogerborg
That's what I'm thinking. Bad performances as a result of bad direction are far more common than people think and the directors here have already proven themselves to be very much not great.
I don't think that's Morfydds fault. Slow motion can make anyone look stupid in a close up.
Its why it shouldn't be used for facial shots and even when it is used properly it should be used sparingly.
I think the directors felt they had to get "that shot" of her being free, enjoying herself and forced that technique in.
It's very much JJ Abrams.
Rings of Power, the gift that keeps on giving. Comedy gold . If Christopher Guest of Spinal Tap fame needs inspiration for a mockumentary based around a fantasy series then this is it.
The grift that keeps on grifting.
So what will Rings of Power be about?
Directors: I dunno. Wing it.
I knew this ever since they announced what era they would be showing.
Aw, that smile on the actress’s face was better than anything shown in the series; such a shame.
Also Bronwyn felt like she had to protect her son? Can we clarify the first time we meet the family she goes off with the elf leaving him behind?
Sergio Leone used about 6 minutes of screen time to tell us all we needed to know about "The Good," "The Bad," and "The Ugly," and then send all three on a compelling treasure hunt. But then, he wasn't a talentless hack using the entire "first season" to set up some 2nd or 3rd season payoff....
On an 1992 interview with arsinio hall, Galadriel was asked if she ever cried. Her response was, it’s okay for macho woman to show every emotion available because I’ve cried a thousand times and I’ll cry some more,”. “But I’ve soared with the eagles and I’ve slithered with the snakes, and I’ve been everywhere in between and I’m gonna tell you something right now: There’s one guarantee in life - there are no guarantees
Galadriel was asked after losing her brother "Why she didn't cry?" And Galadriel responded "I have no more tears to shed."
@@annatardlordofderps9181 she has been known to lie.
...after which he slapped her - yes, _slapped_ her - for not telling him how good the cheese was.
I don't know what I would do without your and AZ's breakdowns of all of this horrible "entertainment" - you just get funnier and funnier.
Just read the section about the return of Sauron in the new "Fall of Numenor" book where Tolkien explicitly says no one knew what happened to Sauron after he disappeared. When they first knew of a vague evil in the east, they did not know it was Sauron. But...
Reading Tolken was your mistake, he could never be as smart, talented or non bigoted as the genius writers of todays world! /s
@@doyoueventhink351 LOL, would also have accepted, "Reading was your mistake".
@@greatestscott6599 That too! who needs outdated, old fashoned books when you can watch the latest and greatest mind numbing corporate propaganda on streaming platforms?
@@doyoueventhink351 exactly, how could an old straight white man be able to tell a good story? Naturally he's a racist misogynist, just from being white and male
I haven’t read it yet but I did just finish the LOTR for the third time and read the timeline tolkien gives at the end in the appendix and ROP have everything all wrong (which I said when I watched it)
The Harfoots sure did hide from water and soap. And because elves sink, Do they only see darkness?
No, Elves are made of stone, obviously, because they touched Morgoth's wood or something.
So, if she weighs same as a duck, she's made of wood?...
"Friendships! Not 'friends with benefits'!" 🤣 Wait till you get to Durin telling Elrond "Give me the meat! Give it to me raw!"
That line is absolute gold but not for the reason that the showmakers think lmao
Never saw it, won't see it BUT I would never miss a Disparu review!
Tolkien was a master of the English language. Couldn't we even find a native English speaker to write this?
The movie "Kung Pow" has a scene that I think expresses just what my takeaway from the showrunners on their thought process was:
"Okay, so here were my options. A, quickly duck sideways, dodge the claw, then take him out with a spinning back kick, or B, take the claw in the face, then roll on the ground and die."
[action resumes; Tang gets hit with the claw]
"Hmm, should have gone with A...."
He can say all that he wants about their taking time to make everyone combat ready and trained, the few fights that all 5'2" of Morfydd Clark has that isn't against some CGI boogeyman are with obvious stuntmen who are super accommodating. You can almost literally see that guy in the Numinorrrrrian marketplace go "So is this where I let go of my sword and hand it to you"? Is it later?" not to mention the two "guards" who walk into the cell and are all like: "Is this far enough? should we move back further?" It's right up there with that scene in Mortal Kombat where Johnny Cage is fighting those guys in the suits and punches one, kicks him and stands there and goes: "This is where you fall down." and the guy blinks then willfully tosses himself backwards to land on his back on the floor.
If this is the level of behind the scenes they're willing to admit to and show us, just imagine the horror they cut out. Keep up the good work Disparu!

the actress looks so pretty smiling, why did they made her act so toxic?

I guess clown world is real
When the director started talking about empathy between races in Middle Earth (and presumably elsewhere), I realized that he has empathy backwards. Relationships don’t start with empathy-characters/people share a goal, and in working toward that goal *together*, they develop empathy and camaraderie with each other.
The reason these character feel contrived, like they’re fake people, is because the director told everyone, “Hey, you’re friends! Be empathetic!” But he didn’t give them a reason to have developed those deep-seated feelings toward one another. We’re just given a quick backstory and told to accept it, without proof of that shared history. It’s less about “you didn’t do (and thus I resent you)” and more about “you did do (and thus I trust you).”
As a counterexample, take Gimli and Legolas. They distrusted each other due to long-standing grudges that each race held against the other. But in their shared goal to destroy the Ring, they developed trust and fondness for one another because they had to work together and depend on one another, else the Ring would never be destroyed and the Free People of Middle Earth would perish.
When talking about 'empathy between races', there also should be actual differences between said races. In ROP, there are no distinguishing features from one race to another, with the exception of ear shape or foot size, and they all act like stupid, obnoxious humans. There were pronounced differences between races within Tolkien's LOTR universe, with each having its own complex history, culture, and language. In ROP, I feel that we're all just being gas-lighted into believing there are actual differences from one group to another, with the exception being that some are always filthy, and others are clean. Galadriel could have done the sword-fighting instruction scene with the Harfoots or the Southlanders instead of the teenagers from Numenor....and no one would have noticed the difference. Galadriel, as a character, would still be an insufferable B----, and each group would still be nonsensically indistinguishable from any other group. Take any group, change them into the clothes of a different group...and they would just blend in. Clean up 'Nori' and she looks as much an elf as "Elrond" does. In a show that supposedly celebrates diversity, why does every race beings look exactly the same?
at least you can't deny they followed what they wrote : if our girl Galadriel didn't search for Sauron, he would've retired and nothing else would've happened
she ruined everything lol
That "he doesn't breath through his mouth because he's underground" statement does raise a lot of questions. XD
the mouth breathers are above in amazon studios
See, the point is that even this explanation is stupid. I mean, no mouth breathing because he's underground? How about :" he may think that whatever dug the tunnel is still around, so he breathes through his nose as silently as possible to not warn potential hostiles" ? There.
Thanks to this behind the scenes peak we can see exactly where the Amazon money was spent.
On whatever drug they spiked the cast and crew with to make them hallucinate this being a complex show with depth. With interviews like these how could they _not_ be tripping?
They didn't need to spike anything. These people are always on something. It's the only way they can really live a life of lies.
Let’s just say what we all know to be true. The two show runners diverted a large majority of the show’s budget towards coca-ina and non-binary whoores.
@@QueenSydon they contacted Walter White for their stuffs. Shit so good they will honor him on next season
Just high on good ol narcissism
"Looks like meats back on the menu boys!"
When Galadrrrriel was sinking in the sea (the sea is always right) by their logic she must have been looking down (like a stone), and Halbrauron must have been looking up (like a ship) to save her.
"Her journey is finding herself." What? Human villager in Blue didn't have a journey. Shes exactly the same at the beginning and the end, just more of her people are dead because of her and their stupidity. She doesn't get any training or anything, she can just miraculously fight and kill stuff super easy and has less remorse of it than Lara Croft in the reboot.
From she hulk to rings, this is what I've been waiting for!
You sir never disappoint :')
Aragorn is smiling kindly upon you from out of your hoodie - well done.
16:34 Yessss! They made a ton of art for this show which looks spectacular; you can tell the artist loves Tolkien and understands the feel of this world, You can tell the people making it don't care because they threw away every single good idea or piece of source material they had
It supports my personal theory that this show was stuck in production hell for half an eternity and what we're seeing is a hastily scambled together production that had little to do with what more competent people had envisioned.
I feel sorry for these people. They've all the money in the world and yet they can't make anything more complex than ice trolls have ice on them.
A better bit for the frozen trolls would be like this:
Character chases rabbit.
Rabbit runs into hole in snow pile.
Character tries digging into pile of snow and ice.
Snow pile is *sleeping troll* and Character just hit it.
Troll fight ensues.
A 1,000 year quest to find Sauron? What, did she just circle Middle Earth every couple of years or so? And she didn't find anything?
Wow. Morfydd talking as herself seems more like a real person than Galadriel does. What's up with that?
The sea is always right, that's why I pray for rain...everyday.
I think you need to go for a swim
Are the Harfoots hiding from dangers, or are the dangers hiding from the Harfoots?
This Series is a wasted Opportunity!
Sauron was supposed to be a (pseudo) Promethean figure generating religious engineering through displaying powers and knowledge to prehistoric men in Middle-earth. He should be a mix of Mephistopheles from Goethe's Faust + Azazel from the book of Enoch + Asmodeus from the Ring of Solomon + Lúcifer from Paradise Lost. In the Series he was a garbage mystery box.
Galadriel was supposed to be a sage and a political opponent of Annatar's reformist ideas. She should be philosopher-queen. In the series she was a Karen.
Numenor was supposed to be a discussion about death vs life vs human nature vs immortality. In the series we had "Make Númenor Great Again". Wtf.
They should show the south and the east of Middle-earth inspired, like Tolkien said in an interview in 1966, in Africa (Ethiopia and Saracens to Harad) and Asia (China and Japan to Rhûn). But no! We had just one black elf, one black hobbit and one black Númenórean queen.
I always felt a lord of the rings show should've followed the blue wizards efforts to stop sauron in the east.

I'm not the type of person who would normally say something like this, but every time I see a clip from the rings of power, I think to myself! I could write a better story than this!
He definitely deserves a million subs.
I wish we could sub more than once
I love how they talked about the production of this so seriously... I would've just been laughing the whole time at how much of a fking joke this show was lol.
That point you made about the woman with a child killing the orc was spot on... It really undervalues them as a threat and makes them less menacing if they are so simple to kill. I wonder if the writers ever considered this when they were writing their girl boss characters... (Press X for doubt.)
X
My first reaction to the orcs were “I can’t even see them long enough to see what it is” which told me right then that the creators knew their show was trash and that people wouldn’t be disgusted by terrible costume designs of orcs
Not even drugs made me think I was a waterbender
I haven't seen a comment for it yet, so I'll just point out that the 'Energizer Bunny' comment caught me off guard and caused me to laugh uncontrollably for a good 5 minutes. Also I love the Aragorn shirt!

The ice on the tr*ll thing reminds me a lot of the Call of Duty: Ghosts trailer years back.
"We have it so that the fish move out of the way when you get near them".
There is absolutely nothing that these slap dog actors can do to convince me to watch Rings of Girl Power. They keep tarnishing their image by hating on us fans.
Only a public apology and quitting from the show can save them.
Great video Disparu! Btw when are you coming back to FNT?
Oooh, show me just how room temp the IQs of the makers is. (As if I can’t guess from the show itself.)
Edit: the sad thing is they probably think they’re doing really cool foreshadowing (FORESHADOWING!) with a wolf that comes on screen for a few seconds and then several weeks later DIFFERENT wolves attack.
It’s room temperature IQ all right
In Celsius
Yeah, sad thing is: they really think they are super smart and competent.
I will be so disappointed if Rings of Power fails. Disparu is on fire here! Does Jeff Bezos realize that HE isn't making any money on this series but Disparu is, LOL?
Only 0:13 seconds into the video and the actual director unintentionally pronounces her name “Guy-ladriel” just like Gary…
weeew lawrd. this gonna be good.
That whole analogy about the boat and the stone makes no bloody sense whatsoever. I don’t even Shakespeare could dissect this
After watching the behind the scenes, im sure, 50% of the production cost went into drug therapies and psychologists even before they shot the first scene.
Yeah, drowning rly made me feel like an elve...holy s hit...
Some massive conversations later, we decided to put a bit ice on the troll who lives at a frozen place...what a genius! oh and also some hair with ice in it.
This action scene was so incredible difficult, i had to move my arm!
The see is always right!
Also please do more of this because watching the your comments on the Rings of Power always bring me a smile! Can't wait for season 2 hilarity!
Is there a commentary where they talk about the Ballrag and explain why the leaf pissed it off but the incessant mining didnt?
"Bronwyn spoke to me because her journey is really finding herself," is 100% unadulterated NPC-speak. As with She/Her-Hulk, if this was actually a really clever meta-troll, and we were watching a Spın̈al Tap style satirical mockumentary about it... how would we even tell?
anyone else catch the bit where the guy with the accent at the start says Galadriel goes from a little girl to the Second Age in ten years?
Is that what he said? Woww
this is pure gold. i kinda like the show is bad because i would never find this channel otherwise.
The story of Kullervo was written by JRRR Tolkien between 1912-1916 after he read the Finnish Kalevala. After Finnish folk tales were collected and published they inspired a great spirit of Finnish nationalism and fostered the country's bid for independence from Sweden. When published in English in the late 19th century, Tolkien was so impressed by them he resolved to create a mythology for England, which he felt had been lost due to the numerous invasions of the British Isles over the centuries. Although he never completed his Kullervo, it later formed the basis of his Children of Hurin storyline, so central to the Silmarillion.
This is what Tolkien was referring to in his letter about him wanting to "draw some of the great tales in fullness, and leave many only placed in the scheme, and sketched. The cycles should be linked to a majestic whole, and yet leave scope for other minds and hands, wielding paint and music and drama." The Finnish Kalevala inspired Finnish artists like classical composer Jean Sibelius and famous painter Akseli Gallen-Kallela to bring the Kalevala into music form and into painting. What Tolkien found "absurd" in his attempt to achieve the same result with his "mythology of England" was that he alone was trying to achieve a nationalistic, mythic, Ethnic identity of England by writing pseudo-myth inspired by other sources, whereas those sources, unlike his own mythology, had existed for hundreds of years like the Greek, Roman, Germanic, and Celtic stories, and in a special place in Tolkien's heart were the Finnish stories.
Whether Tolkien succeeded or not will become apparent if and when the English people will finally wake up from their slumber and realize their Ethnic and national identity before it is too late.
They're not allowed to. If they do they get branded "racist".
When she was sinking, why didn't she just look up? Works for boats, right?
Also, "what are you gonna do with that, butter him?" FUCKING KILLED ME.
Watching the 'behind the scenes' welds home the fact that if these same people "produced" alcohol : it would have a weird smell , a oil-sheen on water kind of visual interest that might tempt one to drink the "sweetness" that numbs the tongue , brings the cough , blinds the eye and contains the very essence that stops the heart...dead; the painfully dead dis-interaction, like drinking radiator fluid and then calling the flopping spasms of massive organ failure dancing
Keep doing what your doing! Great work!
"Did we really need to see a foot on screen for that long?". I certainly not, but Quentin Tarantino may have a word about that. 🤣
They certainly weren't concerned about the feelings of hundreds of millions of Die Hard Tolkien fans when they COMPLETELY BUTCHERED the Source material for which they clearly lacked all understanding of at the most fundamental level! Or all the ways they COMPLETELY WRECKED the Timeline! Or all the many ways they changed key characters in the most disrespectful of ways!
They should have showed reverence and respect for the source material but instead treated it like a dirty diaper! Something they felt entitled to just completely toss out all together!
I hope they lost a fortune on this.
Personally, I think the Tolkien estate should sue them for screwing with the story and timeline as much as they did. Especially, seeing as it was widely reported that they were not supposed to be allowed to make any significant changes that would affect the main story. Something for which they did so time and time again!
This show is AN ABSOLUTE ABOMINATION!!
Do Harfoot wagon wheels not leave marks to follow? Wagons following one after another would make it obvious to even the dumbest of trackers.
5:24 Why would a troll "sit for a long time" and let "ice form"? Don't they need to eat?
The writers clearly don't know how humans work so i don't think they'd know how trolls work... Or any other creature for that matter.
Saar chasm: "The 'Schlossberghöhlen' in Homburg are located below the ruins of the Hohenburg Castle and are Europe's largest man-made mottled sandstone caves"
I love it how the dwarf is wearing crocs just because he doesn't absolutely have to wear his full outfit at 15:20. Now that's a level of commitment I'd expect from people working on RoP.
It's always so interesting to see making ofs for some incredible films and shows because there's always an insane level of attention to detail, meanwhile over here people won't even fucking put on their costumes because someone told them they might get away with wearing crocs instead.
I enjoy your videos more than the actual series you cover. As an assistant director I feel like your commentary should be mandatory watching for my peers lol
This was great, again! So looking forward to part 2.
I thought she said "BELLY Dancer" but then realized it was her accent that made "BALLET" sound like that. 😂
Last time I went on a boat, a huge storm hit. So I tide myself to the boat! AHA, got you storm...I drowned
My Girl Galadriel

GGGRRRRR
TERK ER JERBZ!!!!
Nice, a desparu video, ✌️👍
Loved the Angel reference mate!
The troll designer is so proud of his design, going into details and backstory of how the trolls sleep in there for so long, the ice creates a civillization on its back... then it gets fucked for like 5 minutes and never be used again until the end of the universe
First.... and First time watching your vedio... Here from FNT... Hope u grow a lot... Good luck bro.. love your content..
7:40 Didnt know that Morfydd can actually smile
@1:56 there are more people in that shot than in the shot in the actual show later where they duplicated the crowd. smh...
If you had a drink every time a cast member spouted bullshit, you’d be drunk by the 5 min., mark of this miserable ‘ behind The Scenes’ debacle
If you has a drink every time Guyladriel emoted humility, you'd be as sober as a Judge. 🤣🤣🤣
I don't have words for the miscasting of Gil Galad. It's GIL GALAD ffs.
I think Celebrimbor was even worse
22:08 *”It’s amazing how he contorts his body…”*
_{proceeds to show him standing like a typical senior citizen}._ 🤣🤦♀️
Each one of these episodes required a joint before, two joints during, and a joint afterwards. My weed budget during those eight weeks was outrageous.
lol even in the interviews they say Galadriel like that
Thank you for watching that nonsense and telling us about it so we dont have to suffer through it. thank you.
