Remember when right before the 'cavalry' stormed thru, Oren came out of the hut and told Waldreg "I have something for you to do"? The cavalry charge was the diversion that shifted everyone's focus while Waldreg took the real black sword to open the floodgates!.
When Adar got the sword from that boy he went outside and talked to that old man telling him he had a job for him. It was a quick scene
I know right I knew exactly what he was doing when he called for the old man lol i was screaming at the screen when they caught him and no one checked to see what was in it.
The editing smartly, makes it feel like the calvary arrives just as Adar is speaking to the old man. Making you forget about that scene. I thought Galadriel was going to open it when Halbrand walked off. But when all she did was wipe the blood off that I was like "Wait a minute. Why wouldn't she look at it?" And when Arondir got it back I knew I hadn't missed a least a reference to them unwrapping it. Which means something else was going on. Then I remembered that old man
I totally missed that, I was already ranting about how the old man ended up with the sword haha. I still don't get how they got the time to take an axe and wrap it up exactly the way the sword was but whatever. Thank you for that haha
@@Martinbumms You're welcome 🤗. I'm glad I can help. The way they do this show is spectacular 😊. Hope you keep enjoying it
@@brandyanderson3522 even if Galadriel unwrapped it how would she know it was switched? she had no idea what the item looked like
Finally, a channel with some positivity / subscribed ^_^ it has pained me to see so many youtubers getting angry and hating a show when it just doesn't deserve that level of negativity. I love the characters, I love the score, I love the detail and the lore, can't wait to see more.
There are definitely a couple of channels out there that are still positive 🙌🏼
I did not see that coming!! I would never imagine the tunnels they were building were meant to channel the water into waking the volcano!! By the time I realized that's what was happening my mind blew, I was screaming om my seat!!
They were hinting at it all the way in the beginning of the third episode 😲
It was a moment where Arondir sees an orc go into a fire-lit pit underground… it was the lava pit 🌋
I loved it... I just expected a trench network and an army of orcs... Sauron is using hard science and psychology to nuke the Southlands into darkness
The scene of the horses coming over the hill at dawn, the music of the horse chase on Adar, the Mt. Doom eruption. All the fighting scenes throughout the episode. WHAT AN EPISODE. Dude so good!
Nothing has quite given me that beautiful nostalgic LoTR feeling like that horse chase scene. That music combined with the action and stakes was absolutely incredible
@Se He Yes fucking yes. IM JUST SO HAPPY THAT I FINALLY FELT LORD OF THE RINGS WITH THIS SERIES
Now that is the Lord of the Rings I know!
The director Charlotte Brändström (Swede) said in an interview with a Swedish magazine that her episodes (starting with no.6) was going to divert from the earlier episodes and they did! Wow!
I understand a lot of the gripes against this, I really do. I love all the books. I love the movies, but if you really hated on this episode it’s just predetermined hate. When you have to start picking apart a story because people are teleporting to and from locations, you know you have begun to reach
Queen regnant Miriel (Tar-Miriel in the books) wasn't create for the show, She's a canon Tolkien character and in fact queen regnant for her father Tar-Palantir and she 's an important character in Numenor's history. Love your reactions guys
One benefit i realized about the show creating its own characters like Arondir: you don't know, even if you know the lore, whether some characters will survive, since we don't know how much plot armor everyone will have. This episode i was legit worried for all the southlands characters. It was a nice feeling.
That’s actually pretty true and great to think about!
Yeah, I mean the show is pretty loose with canon in a lot of ways, but a lot of the "new" characters are not the problem. There's certainly room in Middle-Earth's history for lesser known characters like Arondir & Bronwyn. It's better to add in people like them for flavour, than to drastically change established canon characters.
What Galadriel said to her horse in the chase scene was the same thing Arwen says to her horse in the Fellowship of the Ring movie when being chased by Nazgul. AWESOME callback!
Is it a kind of spell that increases the horse's speed?
that give horse courage, confidence, can do it trust, and make it horse more healthily, 한마디로 말하면 말에게 자신감과 믿음 용기를 불어넣어줘서 말의 능력치를 최대로 끓어올리는거지. 우리가 마라톤에서 마라톤 선수들이 혼자서 달리면 지치고 힘들잖아. 그런데 결승에 가깝거나 관중들이 많은곳에 갈때, 관중들이 박수쳐주고 응원해주고 환호해주면 마라톤 선수들이 힘이 나잖아. 그런거지.
마법으로 말의 힘을 단순하게 스피드 올렸다가 아니라, 말과 교감하고 엘프가 말에게 할수있다는 자신감 용기 이런것을 불어넣어줘서 말의 능력치를 최대로 올려주는 그런것? 마법일수도있고, 엘프들의 말 다루는 스킬일수도있고, 아무튼 확실한것은 엘프들은 그렇게 말에게 활력을 넣어줄수있다는것.
@@abhishekrasane8591 It's not really a "spell", just means ride faster. Elves can whisper to horses, just like trees and nature etc, they're connected in certain ways different to Men
Yeah. "Noro lim." Run fast. Arwen just aded Asfalot, her horse's name
i agree so much with the comment that some fans are so impatient, calling the characters or writers dumb when they're just literally setting up plot points that will eventually pay off
So many moments in this episode gave me goosebumps. The fights, the stunt work, the horses, the lighting and cinematography, the small character moments, the effects, but what stood out the most was the storytelling. The episode was so well paced, with real stakes and was a sheer adrenaline rush. The birth of Mount Doom was not something I was expecting, but man, it was awesome. Mordor has begun.
I'm one of those people who watches a lot of stuff and don't go out of my way to voice my opinion online, especially if I didn't care for something. At most, I'll occasionally make a positive comment here and there on reactions like yours. If I don't share that enthusiasm for something, I just move on and watch something else I do enjoy because I don't want to waste my time hate-watching it. Also, I just can't grasp the mindset of those who feel the need to piss on someone else's enjoyment just because they have a different opinion. I think that's one of the main reason I love this channel. It's just fun to see your enthusiasm and the knowledge you share with each other and the audience is much appreciated.
I went and seen all three of the Ring movies in theaters and I loved how beautiful filmmaking was and the storytelling was magnificent. Watching this show brings it all back even on a grander scale of different of how these people changed or who they were before. So glad that you react to the show and that the show is even here to be reacted too.
This almost felt like Infinity War, we had victories, defeats and victories again. And just when it seems we won, almost out of nowhere we experienced the biggest defeat in history.
copy&paste dude back at it again!
Horseback riding and fighting is just some of the best parts of this franchise. It's amazing.
I am hardcore Tolkien fanatic (all books, every year. Etc.) and you guys are perfect. Pure joy. I really wish people would just enjoy the show or don’t watch and shut up. Well done sirs. Love it.
Same. It blows my mind that certain people hated it long before it came out and somehow have time to watch it anyway, just so they can shit on it. That’s a sad existence.
Miriel is not really created for the show. In she is in Tolkien's books, as she is here, the Daughter of Tar-Palantir, who is forced to marry Ar-Pharzon and he takes the throne from her when Palantir dies. The exile of Tar-Palantir and her acting as Regent is a creation of the show to fit their narrative. Though inspiration for that was pulled from other sources in the books as well.
Spoilers!!! 😂😂🤪🤪 jk jk
It makes sense to me. Morgoth's evil is embedded into the very fabric of Arda and is associated with flame, rivers of lava, and poisonous smoke. And Sauron struggling to create what he wanted taps into his power by igniting the dormant volcano. While Sauron imbued the ring with his own energy I like to think the ring is a medium that draws on Morgoth's evil.
Tar-Miriel is a main character from the Unfinished Tales and a is apart of the Silmarillion. I freaking loved this episode and the multi-layered storylines that came to a head at the end. Excellent review, amigos!
Isn't she also in the appendices?
That ep was really a spicy meatball, wow, I'm stoked and in awe, of the writing, the actors, the tension build-up, everything. Reaction reflects the epic ep 100%. Uncut is always the best. Next epsiode: I think we will see a longer version of the scene from ep1, in which Galadriel said "You have not seen what I've seen" where we saw the bodies floating in red air and sky. We've thought that was a flasback but maybe it was a premonition of the aftermath of Mount Doom's outbreak. If that is so, Galadriel will at least get a glimpse of Sauron, just my few cents.
Adam: That’s not what I meant! 😂😂😂
Augustin: Not like that! 🤣🤣🤣
Adam & Agustin's reactions at the final parts of the episode was literally me, I was staring at the screen wide eyed. I wish Hector was here too!!!!
**Also just gotta add, I rush to watch these reaction videos cause it's so hard for me to find some chill positivity or just plain ol discussion about this series. I'll seeing things like "omg it's so terrible" or "bad" and it has me sometimes wondering if I'M crazy, for not feeling the same way. I don't need it to be overly positive or anything for me, but seeing just a little community is nice. Also I discovered the reddit for the series the last night, and it's also not so bad and people are chill there too. It was fun reading the excited and speculative comments about ep6.
Personally I think a lot of the channels that do that stuff just amp it up for what I call ragebait. Basically clickbaiting people with rage. And people either go to those videos to validate their own dislike of the show OR they get offended by the thumbnail/title and go there to rage at the video, either way it generates engagement.
Whenever I see a video of such type show up in my recommendations I just put it on the "do not recommend this channel" and that's it, I'm done. Not giving them extra visibility by making angry comments on their video (which will lead to nothing but angry comments being shouted at me, thus again, cranking up the spiral of hate, whatever valid points people on both sides could have long lost), I'm just gonna filter them out.
I'd rather come to channels like this one instead :D
And the great thing is you can still say if you didn't like something. I just left a comment about the timing of the episode and how it doesn't make sense and I know that I won't be hates or thrown out of the community 😄
Heroes Reforged just created a nice and reasonable community
I get that, to be honest I find that all these "Tolkien fans" are just using the show to vent their own issues. They have so much negativity, nothing is up to what they consider quality. They'll never understand that any adaptation from a book to a visual media will not be exactly as it was written. And also, we live in a golden age of book adaptation, never could I have imagined to see a big budget series based on the LotR trilogy books, let alone based on Silmarillion. I keep to reactors that just enjoy the material, sure, not all of this is canon like in the books, but come on, this is just an amazing show.
I totally agree with what you said about “ragebait.” It’s a twisted version of clickbait and a lot of CZcamsrs have embraced it where it’s become part of their formula. I’m the same as you. Doesn’t matter if it’s this shoe or She-Hulk or NuTrek. If I see a single ragebait thumbnail, I immediately remove that change from my recommendation. I don’t care if they later come back and say, “Ok maybe this episode wasn’t too bad.” They are living off raging and encouraging other people to rage, I don’t need to waste my time or emotional energy listening to spoiled children throw tantrums. There’s still a place for legitimate criticism but ragebait is not it. Just wish CZcams could let you mute channels that appear in direct searches instead of an algorithmic feed you have no control over.
Whoa, I see that all the commentors and OP thus far are of like mind, and I havent been alone in my crusade to ... enjoy the show despite reading all the books every year lol. Ya'll have given me hope and some nice talking points, thank you for voicing your positive mindset approaching this series ^_^
Udûn is region of (eventual) Mordor in the northwest where the Black Gate is located. But it also means 'Hell' in Quenya. Gandalf named the Balrog "Flame of Hell".
Why anyone is complaining about or not watching this show is beyond me. It's amazing! From the writing to the acting, the costumes, the sets/locations, and the music. Galadriel is awesome and Halbrand is my fav.
Excellent reaction gents as usual. As a Tolkien fan, it pleases me when people get invested in his world.
“The cleanliness! The cleanliness!” 😂😂
Glad to see I am not alone in getting the feels from Halbrand and Galadriel
Season 2 has reportedly already been confirmed, filming starts in october.😊
5 seasons confirmed
@@ianaustin5012 Yes, the contract with Amazon is confirmed for 5 seasons and they are committed to that. But because they discussed in this video, whether there was a small risk it could change depending on how the show was recieved, I just pointed out that season 2 is 100% happening and starts soon.😊
Old news 😊
@@yara5502 wait it starts being on amazon or just start of creating scenes and episodes?
@@dinamovac6539 No ,they just start filming it in october. It won´t premier on Amazon until 2023.
Adar - "Who are you??", *creepy music plays as Halbrand keeps his back turned and walks out*, *Adar looks away like "Ah, fuck." I was not a believer until the show literally confirmed it with that scene
I love watching your reactions, and not just for the positives and the constructive criticism, but it is just so much FUN to see you guys nerding out over the couples. None of the stereotypical eyerolling, y'all are like, "YES LET'S FEEL THE LOVE!" And yeah, the fact that Tar-Miriel is here for the explosion of Orodruin just lends so much more credence to her father's prediction of "darkness awaits you"... and oh, how it does.
I’ve started referring to things as “a little trick or treat” now
Me too lol.
What an episode!!The scene when you hear the thunder of the horses on the horizon, reminded me of the Battle of Helmsdeep in the Two Towers (I’m not an expert on the Lord of the rings I just remember little parts of the movie that to me were epic) - when they were waiting for the armies to come, and you see Gandolf in the distance, all in white, music in the background and then you see the rest of army come out, ready for battle, and they just dive down. That shot was so epic! I was excited just as much as you guys were! I was literally screaming at the top of my lungs so excited I’m pretty sure I woke up my neighbors! 😂😂
I'm so glad that someone actually appreciated how good this show is. I loved it and I have loved watching your reactions talking about what made it so exciting for me too.
So bang on about the audience impatience Agustin. I've been saying this the whole time... yes it's been slow but it has to build the characters we know nothing about. GoT was a slow starter and look where that got to (obv ignoring Season's 7&8). Loved the reaction yet again guys.
This is my exact reaction when ppl say it’s been too slow and bouncing around to too many storylines. This is exactly how GOT season 1 was and why it didn’t have a big following until later , and now people love that first season!
I cried when Bronwyn got shot by an arrow, I thought she was dead 😭 This episode was amazingggggg. I enjoyed the reaction! :D
she got shot by two arrows. its clear to see, but then they only remove one
Her look when they threatened her, stretching out her neck defiantly despite being half-dead? Perfect.
The writing is still sh*t.
This episode pretty much solidified my reasoning that Halbrand is in fact Sauron. It was so cool seeing Mt. Doom get created and the rise of Mordor
Nah I think he is either the king under the mountain, or a Nazgul.
I don't think he's Sauron.
@@Thurrak I can promise you that he is Sauron. You’ll see during the season finale, trust me
maybe he creat rohan kingdom
@@brendenzielinskitpt2647 Never trust people on the Internet
HOTD is streaming and playing on cable. Those numbers were streaming. It didn't take into account linear (cable) viewing.
1:25 Udun is another name Utumno, one of Morgoth's ancient fortress's, so when Gandalf says "Flame of Udun", he's essentially saying Flame, or monster, of Morgoth/Morgoth's Kingdom (Udun is also the name of the valley that the Black Gate is located in, which is probably what the title is referring).
Yes and no. Udun means "Hell" in Sindarin and was also used to describe both Mordor and Utumno, probably because both places were hell-like. Utumno however means "underworld", while Mordor means "dark lands". So I think here the reference is more towards Mordor (where the episode takes places, although it's still called Southlands at this time) and of course the explosion of Mount Doom at the end.
The "turbo time" and "that's how you say NOS in Middle Earth" were my exact thoughts - I was like if they say turbo or nos right now, I'm liking this vid lol
Guys, Amazon has already been approved for doing 5 seasons and season 2 is already being filmed. With the amount of viewership the show's had (the most viewers for any Amazon show ever), it's not gonna get cancelled.
The fact this is only episode 6 and not the penultimate or finale makes me so excited for what is to come. Also looking forward to Hector coming back with the crew for the final episodes. Who knows, maybe Ettore (Hector) Italiano will have some more phrases and a more regional accent than before.
Best episode.. the show just went to another level. Also nice touch Isuldur saying that he likes mountains… he eventually builds Minas Tirith on the mountain apposite to mount doom.
17:50 my favorite shot of the whole episode
Unlike what has been happening in marvel shows on Disney± where everyone wants answers immediately, I'm enjoying the slower burn of this show. It's giving me just enough backstory with some action and great scenes of dialog that I have no doubt will pay off in later seasons. Really enjoying this show and what they've done with it so far
Was invested before, but now? Oh yeah, I'm hooked.
Too bad the first season is almost over. This is going to get so much bigger in the future and hopefully the wait won't be too long.
Adar might ultimately have an honorable goal in mind: Keeping his Orcs from becoming enslaved by Sauron again. Halbrand might very well be Sauron himself. I was surprised he and Adar know each other. I think that sealed the deal for me.
So, the Stranger HAS to be one of the five wizards, right? Gandalf would be a bit too obvious though or are they really going for that reveal? Still thinking this might be Saruman, given his affinity to also cause harm (even if unintentional) and his tall stature. Christopher Lee was a towering presence as well.
This episode got me so excited to see how they tackle the big set pieces of the 2nd Age. I mean if this is how they’re doing Mt Doom erupting then the Last Alliance will be insane!!
I was particularly impressed by the battle taking place in an open village and seeing the tactics they used and how they went about it. I'm so used to seeing these huge sieges in movies, so this felt kinda new and refreshing for me. I loved it.
Also rip spear man. He was so good in that battle. I liked that they were kinda realistic with the arrow wounds not being immediate death shots, even if spear man did bite it (obviously he'd have to be Boromir to take two arrows and keep going..... I'll see myself out).
It's so nice to see people just enjoying the show here. Had a fun time watching your shocked reactions, exactly how I felt :D
I'm loving the show so much. Like you said, on social media the loudest people form this general opinion that people then accept as what "everyone" thinks, when in fact probably majority of people's opinions are left out. So many people don't share their opinions online either, even if they're there.
I'd also like to point out that Tolkien's work (none of it really) isn't suitable for TV/movie adaptation the way it is. The modern story telling style is very different from how Tolkien wrote things. He didn't really care about story telling I think, just about creating the world and its history and the characters and events came with it. So to make a good show you're gonna have to add and change things, and these people don't even have the rights to a lot of the source material from the second age. Yet they are doing a brilliant job.
LOVED this episode ❤
Mount Doom!!!
Damn Galadriel can be so dark sometimes! I like Halbrand so far and I’m 100% sure he’s Sauron. I wish I had just a little more Elendil though. It was fun that the episode followed one storyline. I can wait until next week for more Elrond/Durin! This was really fun! ❤️
Sauron (aka “Halbrand”) is in fact “the king of the Southlands” so Galadriel and Numenor practically gifted him his land
@@brendenzielinskitpt2647 can you imagine Gil-Galad’s reaction when he hears of this?
« I told you to go to Valinor ffs! »
🤣🤷♂️
@@FredThePhoenix “Galadriel, you created the very evil you swore to destroy”
You guys are sooo right! If the setup hadn't been that "detailed" and slow, we wouldnt be that interested in this epic events. Tolkien was all about build-up, the more wholesome and pretty the setup is, the more heartbreaking brutal any danger to it feels.
I'm sad for the people who have made hating the show such a part of their personality that they are not even going to allow themselves to enjoy this series.
I watched this after seeing the show first myself. I didn't catch it first time, but when Adar went outside he told the guy, I got a job for you. That's when he must have given that sword to him.
ROTFL this may be one of the best reactions y'all have ever done 🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh my gosh I can't imagine how much funnier it would've been with Hector
should know they aren't really orcs attacking first, they have torches which orcs don't need at night.
I can only imagine what future battles, let alone probably THE last season battle against Sauron will be like if this episode is so freaking good already.
I'm so enjoying this show. Being a Tolkien fan, I can appreciate how things are based on the lore but not necessarily what I might expect. So much fun!
👏🏼👏🏼 thank you David
Great show. I didn't see that coming.
Such a great episode! I will have the get the patreon just to watch them all with you guys. But the list you guys were reading is wrong. Rings of Power in its first week was BY FAR the most watched show with only two episodes according to Nielsen. Even considering that other shows had more episodes. It was also the first by far overall, including movies and old shows that people still binge watch.
I believe they were speaking about a more recent week? I don’t think they were talking about it’s first week…. I think lol
@@MarieS610 But we don't have the number for recent weeks. The only source that gives this information correctly (and only US) is Nielsen. And they are always weeks behind.
Knock knock knock
Villagers: Who is it?
Orcs: 🗣It’s the Milkman 😂
Man, these guys are so chill its great, i'm late to the party, but loving these reactions!
just found your channel and i'm delighted by your reactions! i love RoP and in a see of youtuber crybabies you are beacons of hope!
You guys had me dying this episode. Your commentary was hilarious. Lmao at imma drink his blood and that's how you say nos in middle earth 🤣🤣
Just a heads up guys: Tar-Miriel wasn't created for the show, she's the last queen of Numenor who kept trying to warn them that it was going to fall but Pharazon forced her to marry him and basically opened the door for Sauron..
Incredible episode! I can't wait to see what happens in the last two episodes.
6:18 😂😂 spot on
There is also a Tolkien who is a consultant on the show. They have the bloodline of this world's creator involved to make sure that they really sell the world of the Lord of the Rings.
this show is freaking good
I loved your reactions, we witnessed the creation of Mount Doom!!! Incredible! I loved all episodes but this one had really great epic scenes and all the action was amazing! :D
FYI, Queen-Regent Tar-Míriel was not created for the show - she's in the books.
I wouldn't even worry about the haters. There's a lot of CZcamsrs out there basically making bank off posting negativity. (You know of whom I speak). That's literally all it is; toxic "content creators" looking for easy CZcams ad revenue. No integrity, no respect, no originality, just greed. Once the season of Rings of Power is over they'll go on to the next big name property, whether it's Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, whatever.
Hahaha - loving the impressions of overly-critical LOTR nerds - so good.
There's a guy on one of the review sites who keeps writing about how bored he is with this show, and after this episode especially, I have to wonder, What show is _he_ watching?? If you're bored, you're probably approaching this show with a lot of preconceived negative notions. I'm just at a loss to fathom all the incredible negative reaction this show has gotten. For my money, it's knocking it out of the park.
The 'Noro Lim' had me weeping... Such a great homage to Arwen and Asphaloth!
The almost immediate switch from "Wish we could see more action" to "Oh this is gonna be a bloodbath" was brilliant haha. This episode had so many ups and downs!
5:10 Mucking out a stall might seem like dirty work, but it is a stable job. ;)
You can't compare HotD because it is a cable/network show to original streaming shows.
As a fairly big Tolkien nerd, I have been loving the show! And yes, this episode was epic, even before the eruption of Mt. Doom, which begins the transformation of the land to Mordor. I also agree that the negative loudmouth on social media are not necessarily representative of the general opinion for the wider audience. If you want to dive into how Tolkien’s lore and his overall themes, check out the CZcams channel Rings and Realms. The Tolkien Professor, Corey Olsen, as someone who teaches courses on Tolkien, is producing a weekly video to dive into how each episode, and the show as a whole, is using Tolkien’s themes and lore. The show haters are accusing him of being an Amazon shill. But that is utter nonsense. He is not just praising every aspect of the show. But I really think each episode of Rings and Realms adds so much more to appreciate about each episode of the Rings of Power. I’m going to go back and check out your channel a little more as it sounds like you covered the Lord of the Rings movies sometime recently.
Holy Shitt what an episode!!!!! First time it really felt like Lord of the Rings
Halbrand looking sus....is he the imposter😂
the subtitles in the show actually show the what they say in elven too
"It's going to flood the valley!"
Oh no.
It's worse.
Much worse.
What a great episode
I love this episode. I agree, for the first time, I felt like I was back in the LOTR universe. Also, I have to admit, I might have critiized you guys in the past, but re-watching this episode with you, I remembered why started following you guys in the first place.
Your reaction was amazing. I love you guys.
one thing that bothers me DEEPLY is the fact that they had so many chances to kill Adar and they never do, I understand he needs to live for the plot to unfold, and in this case he needed to be more of a in-the-shadows kind of leader instead of marching in the front with all the orcs, any archer in that damn tower would've stroke an arrow thru his face at first sight, like Adam said.
Adar is essentially the father of all Uruk-Hai, right?
@@djoscartj i don't know, is he? hahah
@@dihboas He referred to himself as "Uruk", so I guess so...
I think Adar just broke his chains and escaped through the tunnel system under the floor of the hut before they were flooded. But either way we just saw the birth of Mordor and it was so dope!! I’m loving the show!
Also I have a really wild Sauron theory but I’m going to keep it to myself just in case it turns out to be true. 😁
I saw someone say what if Theo released Adar…and now I can’t stop thinking about that scene where Arondir and Bronwyn are shouting out looking for him while the volcano is erupting! 👀
@@MarieS610 Oh…I hadn’t thought of that! That would be crazy!
“A Post-Mordor Moratorium”
Wordplay!
Halbrand is Sauron. In this episode remember adar says he killed Sauron. Galadriel didn’t believe him but when halbrand knocked over Adar he asked remember me and Adar didn’t . The misdirect was Adar asking if he killed a wife or child but halbrand kept quiet. Adar probably destroyed saurons physical form but Sauron is immortal in spirit and can take physical form again. Also numenor, halbrand wants to join a smithing shop. Sauron lore tells us that he trained from Aule himself , one of the vanar who created the dwarfs. Also this episode we found out that Adar's orcs are fighting from freedom. Halbrand, the first time we meet him says he was driven out of his lands by orcs.
Interesting theory!
Flame of using is an old name for the balrog that’s why Gandalf called it that
The second Adar took off on the horse, I knew the old guy had the sword. I kept yelling at my TV whenever the characters wouldn't unwrap the fake
Them: “This episode sponsored by Geologie haha”
Me, thinking about what happens at the end: 😬 you’re not wrong ⛰️ 💧 🔥
FANTASTIC episode....my god....that was epic......
Mount Doom eruption scene was crazy,great episode :) Can't wait what happens next!
This was THE best episode
This episode is a fcking 10/10.. SOO GOOD
I don’t think Elendil’s wife is strictly an elf. I think she might be a mortal half-elf, like Elros, Elrond’s brother and 1st King of Numeanor
Loved it! Looking forward to your reactions.
Hey guys, luv the channel, im glad u are both into this as much as i am..great reaction!...i dont know why but after they got back the weapon from Addir, i was like this is too easy and i start saying at the tv, to check the damn weapon, so frustrating that nobody checked that it was the Key...incredible ending but if they had dun what i asked, they might have stopped it or in the least got people far enough away from village!
Adar was willing to die to ignite the volcano because he had no way of knowing they wouldn’t kill him so I don’t think he’s running the show, something is going on that we don’t see yet
This might've been one of the best reactions on the channel, excellent work guys
This episode was full of awesome surprises and had me on edge! I loved it! ❤️
Bro. The stunt team KILLED IT in this episode. Loving the mystery of everything. MOAR!!
Fr, best episode so far top to bottom! I’m loving/jokingly hating the cliffhangers they do because I always want more and don’t want it to end lmao
That's the issue when you have such big IP's like star wars, LOTR, Marvel etc.
Let's say each has 100 million fans worldwide. If two million people hate something and do nothing but complain about it. That's a lot of people. But, in the grand scheme of things it's only 2% of your audience. That may be a very vocal 2 million people but it's still only 2%. This, is the issue for all of those IP's.
If Marvel stayed the same people would complain that it's too formulaic and they ran out of ideas. If there's not non stop action or if there's no back story that goes in depth or if it's too fast paced to slow paced or to many strong woman leads or to ethnic characters.
If LOTR deviates in anyway from their bible then they purists will be out squeaking. If they don't have 2 hrs of them running or they give a woman a strong leading roll. Or introduce non white characters.
If star wars doesn't give everyone that nostalgic feeling they got as a kid or if someone is in the wrong fighting stance or doesn't feel like it was still made in the 70's even tho it's been 50yrs or uses the wrong color pallet or creates characters that resonate with now and not the 70's to keep the movies all the same while never advancing with the times.
Valley of Udun actually , at the north of the southlands , means black pit. Udun is another name of Utumno , the first fortress of Morgoth . That was a really dope episode. Full of action and suspence. Very intriguing.
