- This is how AI would have created characters of J.R.R Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings fantasy book series.

Ah yes, as we all know, a "wiry person" means someone who is literally made of wires.
😂
The AI literally stripped all the flesh off Gollum. Replaced Aragorn's elven cloak with a nice pair of elve's ears, and slapped a contact lense on Sauron's eye! 😂
Yeah. Looks like Skynet is gonna be a while
Yeah and all the Hobbits have the same parents as they all looked exactly the same except for Sam.
@@stevelow2721exactly!
If Éowyn looked like that, Aragorn definitely would have enjoyed her stew.
Miranda Otto is a pretty woman but Liv Tyler has a perfect face.
Humans in LotR including Aragorn have this imperfect earthy look but elves are perfection, except Hugo's Elrond hahahah.
That's because Elrond is actually a Half-Elf, not a full elf.
I was thinking the exact same thing, I'd be begging for seconds 😂
😭
I don't know. She has a bit too much square jaw, it looks masculine not feminine.
In other words, the casting was spot on. I see no significant difference.
Gollum was not a zombie though, at least not in the classic sense. He was withered, but not undead.
AI sucks at using it for things like this, I just hope nobody actually does it while reading, take the description and then lazily let ai generate it. Stupid
So, the Peter Jackson movies got it like 95-97% correct.
Yeah, thats what I learned... and that AI Gollum is creepy.
By their clothes, you can tell that the AI used PJ’s characters
😊
I think it's the other way around. Cause AI can't create sheeet really
Peter did better imo.
Pardon my knee-jerk reaction to your comment, Sammy. Peter Jackson is the most talented with these adaptations, but please don’t think that just because AI “got it right” means that AI knows all the answers or is the final answer. That is scary that you went there. Yes, a computer created characters based on limited information and probably used Jackson’s characters as the template to start from, the rest it just perfected to be book-accurate. But seriously, how do we know that Pippen’s hair was that shade of red or that length, and full of curls that fall just that way? We don’t, AI borrowed from world of information to produce these images. I’m just critical of AI and feel we are headed in the wrong direction. I’d rather we be very critical of it rather than think it is a vision of truth. That’s all I mean to say.
AI Legolas looks like a hobbit.
legolas peter jackson, is best
WTF ! Aragorn's ears.
It does say "Elven cloak." Perhaps the ears came with it at the Spirit Store.
@@alm2187 , theres always a glitch like that apparently...i saw one of these a while back & frodo looked great but he had a beard...i dont think hobbits can even grow facial hair, not sure, so, idk whats up with that...but, ur comment is as good a guess as any, lol.
@@alm2187 The problem is : In Tolkien's Universe described in every books, Elves never had, don't have and will never have pointed ears !!! They look like angelic androgynous creatures
Eowyn is so hot, but all the Hobbits have the same face, and Sauron doesn't have cat's eyes
Even Legolas looks like the Hobbits' brother.
The ai was clearly using the movies as training data
Sauron isn’t supposed to have a Cat’s Eye or Slit-like pupil. That was an invention for the movies. The Eye of Sauron is supposed to be more of a metaphor.
@@thomaskilroy4573 yeah I remember now you're right
The Eye is rather metaphorical, yes, but this is how Frodo sees it (representing Sauron's will) in the Mirror of Galadriel: "But suddenly the mirror went altogether dark, as dark as if a hole had opened in the world of sight, and Frodo looked into emptiness. In the black abyss there appeared a single eye that slowly grew, until it filled nearly the whole mirror. So terrible was it that Frodo stood rooted, unable to cry out or to withdraw his gaze. The eye was rimmed with fire, but itself glazed, yellow as a cat's, watchful and intent, and the black slit of its pupil opened on a pit, a window into nothing"@@thomaskilroy4573
AI Frodo looks almost exactly like Martin Freeman's Bilbo 😂
I was thinking that of Samwise.
Which is funny because even though Bilbo is Frodo's uncle, the resemblance makes him look more like Frodo's dad
Most of the hobbits look like just Martin Freeman in different wigs
Which means the movies fed into the AI database, not that the AI is spitting out some conjured images magically
Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin all look the same except for hair. 😂
Bilbo too!
So Boromir is Henry Cavill.
Jean Claude Van Dam
That are NOT book descriptions
That are not?
No description these book are. But you got the point.
Yes, he should delete the crap.
That description of Gollum is terrible wrong!😂
Why does Gandalf look like he belongs in a biker gang lol?
😂🤣
That's because Gandalf and Sauron were both members of the notorious "Angband's Angels" back in the day. There were some good times early on when the gang was first formed and they would ride across Middle Earth on their Balrogs. Gandalf saw where it was heading though and got out early. Sauron on the other hand never seemed to catch on about where that path would ultimately take him and became a lifer - I guess we all know how that ended up fir him!
Makes you appreciate the film casting. I wouldn't replace 1 if those AI works with who was ultimately cast.
Meeeeeeeeeee, Eowyn, maybe? 😜
I think I'll stick with the film versions thanks...
Just goes to show that Peter Jackson and his crew were pretty spot on to their casting choices eowyn seems older and more experienced in grief than the AI depicts her
And Gandalf was described as having a scarf and eyebrows that stuck out past the rim of his hat so either there was no brim of the hat or his eyebrows were really long
RIP Theoden Bernard Hill
Indeed.
I love how AI always makes people move so weird, like they're totally nervous in front of the camera and don't know what to look at lol
AI Gimli looks much more natural. Movie Gimli had too much makeup.
Like lipstick?
Why does AI Aragorn have Elvin ears? H's a man, not an Elf.
They really did nail the casting
Apparently, Arwen & Aragorn switched ears.
Gollum is not even remotely a bunch of exposed bones with a head on it
Actually, Tolkien described Aragorn as "lean, dark, and tall," with "a shaggy head of dark hair flecked with grey, and in a pale stern face a pair of keen grey eyes." He was about 6'6" and due to his Numenorean heritage had no facial hair. (Neither did Boromir.)
And we know the human imagination is still better than a machine's.
Is Aragorn really referred to as "very handsome" in the books? I haven't read them in a long time, but the way I remember it is that he's more "noble looking" than particularly good looking.. When the first movie came out I even remember thinking Viggo Mortensen was a little too young and handsome.
No he's not. Unfortunately a lot of the descriptions in this video aren't in the books and some are missing such as Aragorn's grey eyes for example.
Aragorn is supposed to be much older than he is depicted in the movie. But if Peter Jackson had cast an older actor or made Viggo Mortensen appear older, he wouldn't be right for Hollywood leading man status.
@@leonardcaplan2022he's older but he'll appear as though younger, due to the longer lives of Numenoreons
And Aragorn doesn't have a beard!
Dude, there was no eye of Sauron in the books, it was Palantir Sauron was watching, and its shining from the top of his tower could be seen from far away
AI Arwen looks perfect. Remember, when they first met, Aragorn thought she was Luthien returned, and the AI reflects that perfectly here.
Not even close. Liv Tyler is just perfect. Elven beauty is pure and simple, she had just too much jewelry to begin with and she looks older than Liv. Elves that look "old" have gone through some kind of trauma/harsh time. Arwen never did, and when she did, at Aragorn's passing, she decided to die.
@@NeerephaExactly
You can't really have an "exactly as described" with Tolkien, since he never really did give detailed descriptions of the characters. One thing about Gandalf that Tolkien did mention, and which nobody but Rankin-Bass has used, was Gandalf's very long eyebrows, which stuck out from under his hat.
AI Gollum looks like a zombie version of Nosferatu.
Bilbo looks like the one from the hobbit movie 😂
None of this looks better, especially Gollum, who looks like an alien due to AI's stark literalism.
Yes, how can Gollum be a skeleton? I don't remember that description.
Rings of Power: "Book? What book? Never heard of it."
They turned Arwen into Sansa Stark...
And the imagine of Aragorn is all wrong both in the movie and in this description. He's full of scars and not handsome to look at, but a very good person. This is one of the things I dislike perhaps the most in the movie, since they could have made a really great character out of that, someone that constantly surprises by his deeds, and someone you wouldn't expect to be a king. As the hobbits said about him in Bree, that if he had come from the enemy he would "look fairer, but feel fouler".
"You mean I look foul, but feel fair - is that it, Master Samwise?" Completely agree!
In wich book is said that Aragorn has a beard or Legolas has blond hair?
Yeah, right? There’s a hole controversy in the fandom about Legolas being blonde or black haired!
In the book, Sam’s eyes were described as brown, and at no time was he described as plump. Being a gardener and being outside with a lot of physical activity everyday, highly unlikely he would have been overweight. On the other hand, Frodo was considered plump. There was an instant in the books before he, Pippin and Sam left Bag End to meet Merry and Fatty Bolger at Crickhollow where Frodo was remarking that his pack was very heavy and Sam immediately volunteers to make room in his own to make Frodo’s load easier. Pippin steps in and stops it, telling Sam that Frodo needs the exercise, it will be good for him. Frodo then laughs and says Pippin is right, he was only joking, he knows Sam is likely carrying much more than he needs to. The only description I can find of Sam in the books is the brown eyes, not green, though Sean Astin has some incredibly beautiful green eyes.
In the book, Aragorn was rather rough and homely. "Look foul but feel fair" as the hobbits described him. The elves had a halo of light around their heads which Jackson left out but did show up in an animation which was not completed. And poor Gollum! Wiry means thin and strong not a walking skeleton with no flesh on it!
The cast of the movie was perfect… perfect. Still don t know how they go back so bad in ring of power
People: "AI is really catching up, I'm worried"
Reality: AI screwing up the characters, cant even do better than Peter Jackson more than 20 years ago
It strangely reveals more about the a.i standard of beauty and generic representation of anything.
Nah. The movie got it better. But this was fun to watch though!
man the ai boromir looks like a young denethor
I think nothing could be wrong if they swap roles of Frodo and Sam
Aragon is not described as “very handsome” in the books, quite the opposite actually.
Nor does he have a beard. Actually as a numenorean he can't grow one. 🤷🏻
-Aragorn and Legolas were done so dirty by the A.I
-Eowyn and Arwen are fire though.
-A.I Boromir looks cool and I would have liked a ginger hobbit like they described Pippin or merry.
-But Gollum is literally as described in the books A.I made a robot or something lol
aI eowyn is fine as hell
1:59 & 2:01 both Arwen look beautiful.
Sauron (end of 3rd age) shaped like a man, larger than most men (7 1/2 ft), skin dark as charcoal, eyes like a cat, missing one finger on one hand.
This video proves how accurate the movies were and how loyal to the books. Seriously tho, lotr is one of the only franchises that sticks so closely to the books. I think they are very well made
AI did the dirty on my boy legolas😂
Many of these “descriptions” are not in the books (especially Aragorn, whom Tolkien said in his Letters was 6’6”). Similarly, nowhere did he describe Legolas’ hair color. They’re inventions or assumptions of the person who made this video.
if possible, silmarillion characters
1:28 New Warhammer 40K enemy is looking dope.
Oh my... EOWYN!!!!!
I think they did it just fine first time round
Frodo looks just like Martin Freeman.
Wait... extremely thin and wiry = a skeleton?
Crap that Bilbo looked like Martian Freeman
Sean Bean was born to play Boromir 🤩👍
Merry is Jude Law, Arwen is Coco Rocha, and Boromir is Henry Cavill
It looks like the casting was pretty spot on.
funny how it made Legolas look like the elves from Rings of Power 😂
Bilbo was exactly same
Cmon guys realy i think thencast was perfect as it could be...
This looks like AI used one face for all male (female?) chars... They all the same.
wow boromir was Henry Cavil
Inaccurate especially Aragorn and Gandalf. Aragorn was never an elf and you forgot Gandalf's eyebrows that reaches the brim of his hat. As for the hobbits, they all look the same except the hair.
Thank God we got the Legolas that we did. Orlando Bloom is a dream.
Where tf did you get these descriptions from? There's no eye of sauron in the books
I thought it was agreed upon that Tolkien never specified the colour of Legolas' hair?
I'd say AI fairly well nailed all of these, except maybe the Eye of Sauron.
Honestly, the AI version of Merry looked exactly the same as the original
I couldn't imagined, has it been told in the book that gollums body is almost bared-bones that he appears like a walking dead person, concerning Aragorn that he is elf looking man but less of pointy ears yet he still belongs to the race of man as far as I know
And as to Saurons great eye appearance still Peter Jackson got it almost accurate
The eye of Sauron drawn by the AI is wrong in so many ways and the same goes for gollum. Legolas looks like a Santa Claus Elf and Aragorn I don't even know where to start about him. The only one who looks genuinely cool in the Ai version is Boromir. Glad we had Peter Jackson's version instead.
They made Aragorn an elf? Gollum is a freaking skeleton 😂
Most of the descriptions here are not in the book. For example, Aragorn was never described as very handsome. He was described as weather-beaten. Frodo said (sort of) that he looks foul but feels fair. He could at times present his regal ancestry in a kingly way.
Aragorn certainly isn't "very handsome" in the book. He's actually meant to be quite ugly, in fact. There was a whole sub-plot about appearance being deceptive and that's a concept that runs through the entire book - "I think you would look fairer and feel fouler", "all that is gold does not glister" etc.
I don't think he was supposed to be ugly, just stern and weary from all his travels and hardships
Gandalfs sly smile at the beginning, heh. I wish it was the full smile clip because it'd be funnier BUT the sly smirk might be better actually!?
Either the AI hasn't interpreted the descriptions properly or the descriptions aren't accurate. I think it's a combination of both. I can't go through everything that's wrong here so I'll stick to one character. Aragorn. The books say a lot more about Aragorns appearance than the description given here. Also his appearance varies at different points in the book. The description of Aragorn/Strider the ranger would be very different from that of Aragorn the king. You have to consider wether you want the Aragorn as he would have looked for most of the tale or the Aragorn he eventually became at the end. Also Aragorn did NOT have pointy ears. In the book no'one is described as having pointy ears. Not elves, Hobbits or anyone else.Thats something that comes from the films. It has nothing to do with the book. The AI has given him pointy ears because the word "Elven" was included in the description and the AI's view of what Elves look like is based on cinematic depictions.
The AI far exceeded my expectations but they do look a bit too clean-cut. I think some of Peter Jackson's masterful story telling lies in how lived-in his re-creation of Tolkein's world looks. That's something that I think AI will be able to replicate one day but my guess is it will take another 5-10 years. I like Viggo's beard more as well as the wig he wears. He also shouldn't have elvish tipped ears. He was raised amongst the elves. He's not elvish himself. Viggo just looks more battle-worn. He doesn't physically look 87 obviously but he does look like he has 60 plus years of battlefield and combat experience. It's that burnt out and intense trial-by-fire look in his eyes that can't be created by AI...yet.
Several of these are pretty far off. The book actually never mentions Legolas' hair or eye colour so I'd love to know where that came from. Also Arwen's eyes are poetically described as grey by Tolkien. This title is incredibly misleading .
AIs always reuse the same faces. Most of the hobbits look exactly alike with a couple minor changes in coloring. Some of the others are repeated, too.
You forgot gandalfs blue hat
if that's what Gollum really looked like, that's terrifying.
Looks like a zombie
@@ScreenAI, or a gollum from Jewish folklore.
No. What's you're looking at is the AI being confused by the word "wiry".
Gollum was also black-skinned according to the book. Probably unwise to go there.
@joshuakohlmann9731 , probably wise not to go down that 🐇 🕳.
All re-imagined by AI...something without imagination, heart or soul, the absolute opposite of Tolkien and his works.
SAURON WAS NOT AN EYE
Bilbo's AI looks almost like Frodo from the movies.
Wouldnt mind book version of female charachters
I am soo glad that Peter Jackson and his crew were not an AI.
Is it just me or did all of the Hobbits have the exact same face?
I'm sorry. I'm currently re-reading the books for the whateverth time. Peter Jackson did better than the ai. At least he knew Aragorn wasn't an elf.
Well, this was definitely hit or miss . . . 🤔Jude Law plays Boromir.
So gandalf is just russell crowe with a beard!? Lol
where in Aragorn's description does it say he had elvish ears??
Nowhere, he is not an elf
@@BloodthirstyAcademic then why does it look like they gave him elvish ears?? 0:41
@mikes7504 Because these images were created by Artificial Inteligence, which is not always reliable for creating art
@@BloodthirstyAcademic I know that, and my comment was intended to mock that fact ;)
Aragorn is 6’6”.
His forbear, Elendil, who cut the Ring from Sauron’s hand, was 7’10.
Eowyn was very fair, the AI didn’t get her right.
"Exactly," except that they aren't. Everyone's envisioning of book characters is going to be a bit different. And how do terms like "noble," "fair," or "brave" affect one's appearance? Fair can mean pale, or it can mean comely. And Aragorn doesn't have pointed ears....
So how can the AI on this get everything about 85% correct but game of thrones and Harry Potter look like what if the movies were shot in Turkey, India, and Pakistan????
Where, where in the description did it say Aragorn had elf ears, AI?
Legolas was described in the book as having black hair.
The description fits the movies better than the supposedly real version only in marry that supposed to be redhead other than that surons eye stated by a your video cat like eye and the cgi version was just a human eye with thunder effect around it
