  • THIS IS NOT MY OWN ORIGINAL CREATION! I really like this song from the original Return of the King Rankin-Bass Cartoon. I moved a bit of the music around to try and make a full and cohesive version of this song.

  • @Chiscringle
    @Chiscringle Před rokem +79

    The Rankin-Bass adaptations have their issues, but the songs often capture the atmosphere better than the instrumentals of the live actions movies. This is exactly how Sauron feels in all conflicts, even the ones he loses, right until the final moment of realization that the Ring was unmade. Every loss is a win in the overall scheme because even in victory his enemies serve his ends.

    • @SirNilzey
      @SirNilzey Před rokem +3

      I think the main issue is the fact that they went from The Hobbit straight to Return of the King. It really fucks up the pacing. Even the Peter Jackson version of Return of the King couldn't really do it justice and he had the fortune of being able to do The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers to set it up. That's the main issue (imo).

      It also adds the depth of showing the orcs aren't really fighting willingly, they're just as much slaves as all of the other servants. Heck in Frodo's dream, even THEY are happy and at peace.
      Meanwhile, Sam dreams about turning them into dumb animals.
      I sometimes wonder how Sam managed to resist the ring in this version, as he seems much more violence minded than Frodo (HE'S the one who always assumes Gollum is irredeemable in the book, and basically undoes what little redemption that was going on. If Sam was a little nicer to Gollum, maybe Gollum wouldn't have gotten the idea of leading them into Shelob's lair and letting her take care of them while he waited for her to toss out the remains so he could re-claim the ring (he might not even have needed to wait, Shelob actually LIKED Gollum because he was good at drawing food in, so he probably could have simply gone into the lair to retrieve the ring unmolested).
