He turned evil when he found out rings of power made a second season.
Dont you mean season 1?
@@Amermito I stand corrected
This legendarium is complicated, it only gets "Arder"
HA!!!!
This is better then the rings of power
Most are
Would be a rare find to be something actually worse than the *Rings of Power*
I love what Gandalf says to Saruman when discovering his treachery. There is only one Lord of the Ring, only one who can bend it to his will, and he does not share power." Gandalf never struggled with Saruman's lust for power, he did not see himself as an equal to Sauron... All the accolades and titles as well as being the "greatest" wizard sent, Saruman saw himself as a worthy opponent... Sure if he attained the Ring he might depose Sauron, but he would only have become him, a weaker, paler imitation... To be honest though, I don't think if he came close to obtaining it that he could withstand the Nazgul... Gandalf had a special propensity for light and fire that we don't see Saruman wield, and this is speculation, but I would imagine that Gandalf's pure heart is part of the reason he prevailed when facing evil.
I have been waiting for a new video since last month.
I've had some issues regarding narration but I'm back on track now with plenty of scripts ready to go! Thanks for the comment 🙂
Nicely done, good selection of art, great presentaton voice! And you content, noting the sources of quotes has a legitimacy that many channels that don't provide their sources can't emulate. Thank you!
Much appreciated! Great work.
I prefer the other voice, more fantasy story narrator like. But this is good nonetheless.
This is the voice from one of the other pages
What do you mean
I LOVE ALL things Tolkien, the real Tolkien, fantastic video and I love your channel it’s added as one of my favorites thank you and keep up the good work brother!!
This is so well done !
Thank you for sharing another great video.
Excellent ! Thank you
Love the vid . Fantastic job.
Aule trained both Saruman and Sauron and created a race that destroyed and hated the creations of his wife. He is like, the third worst guy in the whole Legendarium.
“Tell me, friend. When did Saruman , the Wise abandoned reason for madness?!”
I gave you the chance of aiding me willingly, but you elected the way of pain!
Very happy to have found this channel. Sometimes the recommendations actually work as intended it seems! :D
This was very well done and very entertaining! Listened to it over a meal rather than indulging in my usual tv shows.
very well explained!
This has quickly become my favourite lotr-Lore channel...these deeply analytic videos are just dope.
I appreciate the more formal story telling!!! Makes things easy to understand and leave room for my own thought 😂
Saruman's secretly one of the richest characters in the whole series
I hope you don't mind I had to watch three times to catch all the details.... I was distracted.... but; this is also very detailed and I truly enjoyed this video and its information!
Yes should have paid closer attention in the 1st watch as you are very concise but also WORTH watching 3 times anyway!
I still think it’s a shame they didn’t show “Saruman of many colors “ in the movie . I was looking forward to see how they were going to do it , then they just knocked out of the story .
A bearded elf? SACRILEGE!!!
It's canon I promise!
@@RealmsUnravelled Don`t promise, prove...
@@danhubert-hx4sscan't tell if you kidding or not, cirdan is the only one known n said to have a beard in the books LotR (RotK near end) and silmarillion
@@bennruda11 You get three guesses...
My dude, where do you get all the artwork for your videos? Every single one of them was fantastic and i'd love to have them in my collection.
I’ve wondered what Frodo would say to Gandalf about Saruman’s death in the Shire.
👍🏻👍🏻

Aulë and his Maiar are divine beings who embrace materialist philosophy. Since Melkor's will permeates all kinds of materials related to Arda, such divine beings associated with this material are susceptible to being influenced by his will. For this existential reason, they tend to impose on other beings with free will what they think and believe is good for them. They feel the need and desire to have the power to achieve this. It is inevitable that they will corrupt and evolve into evil (mainly the will of Melkor) within the power they have and have acquired.
Tolkien also wrote (in UT) that Saruman also found (and burned) Isildur's remains, which makes him an even bigger rat bastard.
Why didn’t Saruman take gandalfs ring when he imprisoned him
If I remember rightly it because he was so arrogant and prideful that he saw it as admitting that gandalf had something he wanted from him and he himself wanted to be mighty "ring maker" and had no need of elven trinkets.
He also still believed that he could turn gandalf and wanted him fully onside.
What is the soundtrack at 10:00 in the clip?
After he said I am good! In rings of power
Always liked the fact that even though Tolkien laid the foundations of his fall within the character of Saruman, he made it clear that the first white wizard was for a long time a true ally of the light, and did for a time seek to learn of Sauron's craft to undo him. After all, they were both students of Aule and he likely thought that could be used to undo the Dark Lord. Saruman was not compelled but made choices that damned him by degrees over time. As a reader I always wonder what would have become of the story if someone could have seen the path he was on sooner and gotten through to him, but that fall is the point of his character since Tolkien saw good men go bad in war.
These get a like before I’m 10 seconds in.
Haha love this! Your support is much appreciated 🙏
Christopher Lee’s Saruman is my favourite character in LOTR films
This voice sounds far too like Robert's from In Deep Geek channel who also covers lotr. So much so I thought I'd clicked on the wrong channel. Bring back the old erudite voice, please. It's perfect for narration.
Where are you getting these amazing art pieces from?
Artificial intelligence
I would like to offer a theory on Saruman. It is stated in Tolkien's works that Yavanna begged he that would become Saruman to take one who served her (known later as Radagast.) Saruman was dismissive of Radagast and grudgingly agreed. Saruman headed East whence the two Blue Wizards had gone. What took place in the East we will never known. But, Saruman, like Sauron, had a like for order. His research into Sauron's works led to jealousy, this and other events caused Saruman to look only to his own gain!
How about a video about Shelob? Or Ungoliant or other First age stuff
there are plenty about that on youtube
Why and how would Saruman recruit Orcs from the North of the Misty Mountains? Wouldn't it make more sense for him to have recruited them from the Southern part of the mountains?
"Wise" and "Wicked" are not mutually exclusive.
He never "turned" evil, it was always within him waiting to take control. The same is true about humans. We don't really change. What we perceive as change are nothing more than previously dormant or minor characteristics becoming dominant. We are all capable of great good and great evil, it is always within us. It merely requires the right circumstances to bring it to the front.
Well, evil and good is a spectrum and some are closer to one or the other by birth but experiences and upbringing might shift them to either side along the scale.
Turncloak - very clever
Nice content. By the way, are you somehow related to the channel "realms revealed"?
Thanks! No, this is my only CZcams channel. That may be one of the copycat channels using my ideas and theories but I'm not sure
@@RealmsUnravelledyeah, it seemed to me like that because the video topics are 1:1 like yours or other channels.
Why do they have such similar names???
I like how the video never answers the question of when Saruman turns evil. That was the year 3000 of the Third Age, 18 years prior to the War of the Ring.
Eldar? Middle earth has xeno space elfs too?
Games Workshop stole the concept of "space elves" from Tolkien
Will the old narrators voice be coming back? Will be unsubscribing if this voice will be replacing it.
Great content in all other aspects 👏
