THE LOGICAL EP 3 REVIEW: czcams.com/video/BPZX4yxHxT0/video.html
It is painfully obvious that contemporary writers have captured the human condition through painstaking research on Twitter.
Sort of. They just pour their own personal misery, vitriol and trauma into everything they write because they think no one ever had it worse than them. They are completely unable to even peek out of their own box, so everything has to be about them and their feefees. And look, I've suffered trauma and depression myself, I know what it is. I just don't demand that all entertainment must be about me and the difficulties I have suffered.
Tolkien experienced the trenches of WW1 as a soldier and was still able to write about things of immense beauty and create characters that were something to look up to. Only a deeply miserable, but completely self indulgent douchebag would ever look up to Amazon's Guyladriel.
@@oskariratinen1213 "Guyladriel"?
I commend your attention to detail, sir
Is ironic. They attempted to make Galadriel a strong empowered female character while forgetting that she was already all these things in the LOTR trilogy and a lot kinder. They didn’t make her any stronger or powerful than she was before, they just made her a b***h.
This amazon thing is just so,bad.
You can guess their political affiliation just by how terrible the show is 🤣
Have you ever noticed that they think "strong women" are the type of men they hate? They're also the type of men the best have never respected. Like big kids who think nothing of others. We don't need more people like that.
Agreed!
Exactly!
You forgot, this series was produced during cov-2020/2021. These writers were out of toilettpaper, so they used Tolkien's work
😂 bruh lmao
God damn that STINGS!
Lol
10/10 good form!
BURN!!
I'm actively rooting for Sauron and the Orcs at this point.
Adar: “I’m really just done with all of Sauron’s nonsense. All I want is a place for my kind, who were tortured and mutilated into what we are now through no fault of our own, to live where we’re not in literal constant agony due to the sun.”
Galadriel: “I will torture your entire species into extinction.”
Lol me 2
@@jacksonscott3667 Seriously. Is Galadriel the villain in this story? She seems like a bad guy by her entitled attitude and psychopathic tendencies. She's more like what I imagined Feanor would be like.
Root for any side, but please watch it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This Is the pre lord.of the Rings so yeah sauron Will win
Tolkien made the elves almost not grounded in reality. They often cared more about song and beauty than in reality because their long lives made everyday things trivial. That’s why so often Legolas would make unemotional, strangely observant comments about beauty and history. It gave the elves personality and character but also that sense of not being focussed on the here and now. Men and dwarves are quick to anger and action. It doesn’t fit Galadriel to be like this. I understand they’re making a character arc where she’s going to become more measured but even so this isn’t faithful to Tolkien’s world at all.
Galadriel was 3422 years old during the second age. She wasn't some angsty teenager undergoing puberty and anger issues, she was a respected leader in the elven community.
@@mr.brightside7496 well at least at the time of the downfall of Nuemnor, she was something like 2100 during the creation of the rings of power.....And the show has both occurring at the same time. Though definitely agree she is too old to be acting like a 16 yr old who wasn't told no.
Exactly
Tolkien describes Galadriel as "the mightiest and fairest of all the Elves that remained in Middle-earth" (after the death of Gil-galad) and the "greatest of elven women".
Their just jealous that Tolkien wrote better writing than they did here, and wanted to prove the world wrong, but they played themselves. Guyladriel is the real face of Amazon. Hubris, arrogance, selfishness, and hypocrisy. Willing to chase after their goals for the 'message' and out of some misplaced vengeance against fans at the expense of entertainment and the audience.
@@mr.brightside7496 It's even worse. In the new Nature of Middle Earth, it is said that one year of the tree could be equivalent to 144 of one year in the First Age. Which means Galadriel would be more than 50000 years by this time.
She's supposed to be a grand daughter of Finwe practically elven nobility, lived for thousands of years and learned from Melian the Maiar.
Yet Elendil, a man who has only lived at least a hundred years displayed more wisdom and patience than her. 🤷♂️
Them peoples gotta grow up fast.
there are a bunch of really old people i wish would be more wise...and they also happen to be in government. but yeah, good point i guess? clown
its worse than that. Tolkien's Galadriel is the greatest and mightiest of ALL elves, save her uncle Feanor. long before she met Melian, she was the pupil of Aule and Yavanna for centuries. she is the greatest telepath in Arda, short of Eru Illuvatar himself. she should have vast kindness, deep insight, unrivalled wisdom, and magic second only to Sauron.
who the hell is this psycho Karen who took her place?
They've retroactively destroyed Galadriel. She's now one of my least favorite characters in all of Tolkien's work.
No really, even though this Galadriel is NOTHING like what we know of Galadriel, and you try to tell yourself its not the same character......it's still retroactively destroyed her.
Because they're going to force this as being her. Repeatedly slam it into our skulls that this HORID depiction of a beloved character that's been around for nearly a hundred years....is now this.
I despise Amazon for this. But at the same time, I'm not surprised. It's been America's aim to appropriate everything with identity politics, and 'modernize' it to American current political "hot topic" for years and years now.
America stealing other people's work and $hitting all over it with their God awful politics that they want to force on the rest of the world, has been their MO for decades now.
@@Aizen2468 Specifically it's the graduates of the humanities in the Literature crowd whom your fury should be leveled at. Revisionism has long been a pet project of theirs. They do it with everything. Yes, it's a lot like trying to fix Michaelangelo's Last Supper with a bucket of red paint and some stick figures -- particularly when considering the disparity in skill of the players involved.
They don't know what a "Strong woman" actually is. They only know one way to write a "strong woman" and that is by making her act like an aggressive and cocky man.
It's the same for every "strong woman" character for the last 20 years.
They are just stereotypical douche-bag dude-bros with a woman's body.
I bet they don't even know what a woman is.lol
This. You said it perfectly!!!
Yes most femnist films rely heavily of established stereotypes meant to break down gender norms. They dont want a strong woman. They want emasculated men and women dominating them. Just read the books and views of the real hardline feminists. You will find only venom.
Wonder woman is a strong woman and I've heard from females inspiring, Zack wrote her right in bvs and zsjl. Also the wonder woman movie was pretty good
@@eebramocgnay8501 maga shit
She's so angry. Just like Amazon's Jennifer Saulke
Probably lol
😂😂😂😂😂
misread that as Jennifer Sasuke for a second and was wondering where exactly Naruto fit into this
She’s her self insert
Exactly, this poor character is just a sum of projections. It's how karens see themselves in their heads (strong, wise) oblivious of how others see them for real (obnoxious and arrogant)
She is a perfect Sith. Always driven by anger, hatred and vengeance, always trying to force her will on others, always focused on hers and hers alone wishes and goals. I can perfectly imagine her screaming "UNLIMITED POOOWWWEEERRR!!!".
Goooooooooood
Gives you focuss, makes you strongah.
I doubt Sith would get triggered on jokes all the time though
@@jimmcneal5292 Oh, I think a Sith would be. Unsuppressed anger gives the Sith focus, makes them stronger. A Sith would probably give a jokester a lesson about lack of faith. Not true for our 'gal obviously. She is a sort of an unpolished turd of a Sith not using her powers properly, wasting energy on useless outbursts of anger unfocused and not goal oriented instead of becoming a queen very dark and beautiful for all to love and fear her and despair.
May the Farce be with this dumpster fire of a show.
Galadriel. On a boat. Hundreds, maybe thousands of miles from shore.
"Time to dive into the ocean and see what happens."
Everyone: that's totally rational. 🙄
"Time to do stupid decisions because my plot armor is so thicc I can literally walk into Mordor and bitch slap Sauron if the writers and showrunners wanted me to do so."
so...i take it you've never changed your mind at the last minute? granted it was a little extreme here, ha, but she's a fucking superhero bro. the fuck you on about? it's not wanda spikovitz diving into the ocean here, haha
She's an immortal being, she probably can't get tired like a normal human.
Err..I suggest you think that through again .. last time I checked even the elves used boats. Probably because even to those "Superheroes" an entire ocean was just too much water to cross by swimming... But perhaps I'm wrong and they all were just lazy and enjoying the boat trip too much to bother with swimming .. who knows...
Turned a beloved character into a vile self indulgent harpy 😂
Pretty much😆
maybe it's closer to the actresses character.
Dam leek munchers...
Friend: "What's wrong? The Jackson Trilogy was great. I thought you liked Lord of the Rings?"
Me: "You have not seen what I have seen."
I have seen my share 😅
I have seen what you've seen, that how I know that burn is hotter than the depth of Mordor.
Galadriel I'm going home also Galadriel 1s before she get home fuck this I'm going back JUMP TO SEA XD
And as a Tolkien fan I would rate the Jackson trilogy "good enough."
He directed it the way he did to be more popular with young people and women, which ironically made it less good for young people who actually enjoy stories (I had read LOTR around age 11 before seeing the movies)
@@adamb8317 and sadly also did a huge disservice to the women of Tolkiens work in only highlighting a couple, generally for romantic purposes, but generally removing the influence and camaraderie of the women
Take a strong female character and basically turn her into an idiotic hyper masculine man
@nathan smith they're literally all the negative traits of imbalanced masculinity. Thats usually the way women act when they dont have a father around
it's called a karen.
This is the most expensive joke ever. Tolken be rolling over in his grave bruh
This is what they think a strong woman is. Think about that for a moment
It’s what they want you to love, because it’s what they are, and they don’t want to change. Thus they portray it as if all the other characters love them
She seems like a teenager to me. I feel like this is the elf version of immature teenage phase
@@cosmictreason2242 What?
I hate that character that much I'd throw her back into the sea. The end.
This is what strong women are. Because strong women do not exist. Only feminine, wise, intelligent ones. Strength is the realm of men. When women try to be strong, they become the only existing examples of toxic masculinity, because they are emulating manhood without having what makes men men. They mimic traits of men such as the aggression or dry humour men *can* display, but it is forced and unnatural. It comes off as nothing but insecure, because that's exactly its source. Insecurity.
It's like a teenage angst. Lol
Would you be surprised if I told you that was exactly what the writers were going for. They even said that in an interview long before the show even aired.
Does Elendil have information on Hilary Clinton?
🤫🤫🤫 she might hear you! 👀
He would be dead by now...
No... Jeffrey Epstein

#Elendildidntkillhimself
Even Yennefer from The Witcher, who is wild, self-serving, prideful, manipulative, brash, and ambitious isn’t NEARLY this psychotic. Yen even shows mercy, intelligence, kindness, remorse, warmth towards friends, and unexpected patience in moments… I never thought I’d see Galadriel portrayed a more morally dark character than fucking Yennefer lol!
Oh my god.... she was the wisest and most powerful of elves. She was not a murderous she wolf
Lol, I know! I can’t believe they’ve done this to her!
Fëanor was greater
Her husband was considered wiser. She was powerful, but the movies made her more so than she was in reality. There were many elves stronger, especially in combat. Glorfindel for example.
@Aung Ramen
Still greater than Galadriel
@@taylemgames2652 in lore she was second only to Feanor, but much wiser then him
She’s become a hated character nothing like in the books everyone hates her in this show
She is like this in the similiarian she doesn’t become mellowed out till after Sauron’s first defeat. She was angry and dead set on hunting him down in the second age which this takes. Place read the similiarian this is also covering an era that Tolkien didn’t cover a lot but made lots of vague notes about.
@@skylandry4059 The "Similarian"?? Bruh, you're trying to convince him you've actually read the Silmarillion but have no idea how it is written?
Maybe you're confusing Galadriel with somebody else, prolly some "Guladrion" or something...

Mad theory:
Galadriel is Sauron in disguise. It's the only way that makes any sense here.
Attempted murderer Galadriel, lol
You would think someone immortal and who have lived hundreds of years would behave more mature than the human that is 40 or 50 years old
Closer to 100, numenoreans live to be centuries old in tolkiens work.
Thousands of years*
She should be around 3400 here. It's give or take though since the timeline isn't clear because they don't actually have the rights to the Second Age, lmao!
The only thing in the series that is bigger than mount doom is Galadriel’s ego
EXACTLY!!!!
They can still make Galadriel prideful, ambitious, and bold BUT this is not the only way to show any of that. They really straight up murder her character wth.
Ted Bundy Galadriel?
Exactly! And those are not the only characteristics of her personality either. It is all so ridiculous. She always shined to others for her great virtues and her strong magnetic presence
i like her. i think they do a great job portraying her--so far.
@@xmastarx Morfydd Clark is doing a fine job with the script she has been given. The problem and the question you need to ask yourself is... in this portrayal of Galadriel -- the writers made it look like Galadriel was ready to knife Elendil; do you really think that this is how Tolkien envisioned a multi-thousand year old elf to act? She's more socially inept than a human; does this fit with Tolkien's portrayal of elves?

Alice from Resident Evil, Selene from the Underworld series, Beatrix in Kill Bill etc etc
She's from Alien actually. Aliens is just a sequel.
They made her a psycho karen
Sauron himself feared galadriel thinking she would become a dark lord.
😂 that’s why he’s hiding from her.
I think it’s extreme immaturity too-that’s what the writers have given Galadriel as a character trait. Essentially if anything doesn’t go Galadriel’s way, she goes from 0 to 100.
Because in this scene, the writers have already established that Galadriel is so powerful that everyone else around her are like flies. So, she’s definitely not threatening him because she’s afraid.
And instead of asking him what he wants or maybe responding in a joking manner or being witty-she just goes straight to threatening to kill him.
And the reason? Just because he might be in her way-not even for certain, but might be. That’s extremely immature.
Which is so odd too. Because she’s thousands of years old. And supposed to be wise. It just is so strange that humans are actually wiser and more mature and stable than her. It’s not a good look for everyone around her to be much more mature than her. In this scene he doesn’t say anything about her crazy behavior, and that shows a lot of understanding and maturity.
Basically most people if they were threatened in this way they wouldn’t be able to tell immediately that she is just being extremely immature and not evil. Basically not someone who really kills everyone in her path.
Most people would definitely be responding either with protecting themselves or running away. The fact he does neither means he understands her very well immediately.
You forgot the smiling horse scene😆

Stop right there. She's not THE Galadriel in the first place. I'd argue it's much better if she's an og male character instead.
Warrior Guyladriel the barbarian ! She can spinning back kick everyone in middle earth back to the undying lands !
She's like a rabid dog biting at everyone. Apparently they think strength means you can just stab anyone who disagrees with u. They better hurry up and curb her "furry" or she will continue to get a lot of hate, even as one of the most loved characters in the Tolkien universe.
I 100% understand why Peter Jackson was in no way, shape, or form involved in the creation of this show. Other than familiar names of people and places, there is absolutely no resemblance to his view of Tolkien's work. This show makes The Hobbit Trilogy look like a masterwork of perfection.
One thing I noticed is that they can't make her look strong without being aggressive or violent. It's like they can't even imagine how to portray her differently. The trilogy's Galadriel looked more powerful with a single stare lol. It sucks for the actress because I feel like she's doing her best but the butchered character she's portraying will haunt her for a long time.
If you think that all authority is just disguised domination, this is the sort of misanthropy to expect on the screen.
They totally bring injustice to galadriel
No matter they rejected the Conan series, Galadriel took all remaining "toxic masculinity" to herself.
Either
1) this character is female feanor, looking to avenge his fathers murder (pardon, her brothers death)....
Or
2) this character is sauron shapeshifted as galadriel, and she is in captivity.... Which is why she couldnt enter undying lands, because she would be captured...
Even Feanor wasnt as bad as her
@@anshuverma3297 😁 so, second one. in her haste of revenge sauron captured her and this is shapeshifted sauron.... 🤔
Why not. Cant see a third option so far.
That would be a wild twist 😂
Lets analize:
Feanor was a genius, a crafter, a smith, a linguistic, he made the Palantiri, and of course held the light of the trees in the Silmarils but yet he commit many crimes; facing his own brother (not by his own merit he was manipulated by Melkor), the murder of the Teleri was a desesperate act bc Valar dont do shit anyway, leave his brothers and kind to die in Helcaraxe (including Galadriel)... well that wasnt nice but Mandos Curse was on action, he was driven by pain, anger and his Oath but he recived what he look for. And his death was tragical, but Melkor understimate him and attack him driven by fear. We all know if Feanor act more wisely and mature, as a the High King he was, probably he and Fingolfin could kill or debilitate Melkor, they were mighty elfs
And yet i don´t see Feanor as a villain, or a psycopath, he was a borderline boy with childhood trauma, he's a complex character, and my favorite Elf along with Luthien
As far i remember in the series, Galadriel took an Oath along with her brother.
Probably she indeed a is "female Feanor", and that's why she wore the 8 ponit star, the Feanorian symbol since the beginning and acts like douchebag bc her Oath. I only watch epidose 1, and without many expectations, it bored me and it was painfull for me watch the entire episode.
But... she isnt a genius or a crafter, i dont see her forgin her own blade or making the Palantiri, she dosent have any magnificent talent as Feanor did, and important to say Feanor had a realistic reason to behave like a spoil child bc his daddy Finwë spoil him trying to full the pain of the lost and abandon of her mom.
Galadriel in series persona is reduce to someone who resovle everything with violence, she had a great childhood in Valinor, as they portrait in Ep 1, which makes no sense for her characer behaviour like Feanor, otherwise he took his valinor time making wonders as a refuge of his trauma, feeling intimidated by his step family and being a spoil child.
So... if she is a "Female Feanor" someone in the series don't understand nothing about Feanor character and reduce him as a douchebag.
And if this is the "Galadriel" of the movies the whole idea of being a little Feanorian girl it crumbles down bc the fate of Noldor and mostly Feaorians is to get corrupted by thier own oath, fail and have a horrible death... if she is the Galadriel from the movies we all know that she survived the Oath something that makes no sense if whole plot idea is her being a "Female Feanor" and i dont think they face her a good reason to survive the Oath and the curse of Mandos
I'm not against the idea of a "Female Feanor" just bc they can't use the original character's name and persona, that would be a good adaptation preset, but i think that the series is poorly writting, many dialoges are an entire boring cliché I don't think the amazon workteam have the balls to make it happen, or even gave her a fate as a "Feonorian" and die, or became a mourning shadow until Dagor Dagorath
The entire show doesnt feel like a Tolkien's work, it feels like a random fantasy series with bad writting, scenes that end nothing and things we all know
@@Verdreztruch umm.... Teleri and people who needlessly died at the great iceway(?) would disagree about a sentence here I imagine. And she has her own crafts. Not same, yes.
Other that that, indeed, he is quite a complex and rich character ( to talk about and debate about and for a really good series too if one could find brave enough producer/directors to shoulder such an undertaking). Absolutely. He is one of the best "character"s deserving their own series in lotrverse.
Galadriel really makes me think of all the newb tables I've had as a dungeon master in D&D. They all want to be super power creeps and end up antagonizing the very NPCs supposed to help them just to prove a point. Simple solution is to beat the crap out of them with some random orc leader, take away their magic toys and put them in jail for a week.
Why do this same reason they had her wearing armor swinging swords becoming the “ scourge of the orcs” they did it for “tha message”

Now You understand why Garadiel in "Ring of Power" is a "superior, brave feminist". Her character is a image of modern feminist - angry, arrogant, disrespectful, entitled. I only wonder why hasn't she pink or violet hair ...
I fee like either they messed up her character…. Or they are preparing us to watch her character dramatically change heart. Kinda like Dumbledore in Harry Potter.
Galadriel is supposed to be wise. Reserved. Magically powerful. Tolkien never expressed her to be this hardened battle soldier who is borderline obsessed with taking down Sauron. If anything a lot of the second age is her traveling from Lindon to Eregion and finally settling in Lothlorien to find her own kingdom. That’s what she really wanted. They should have our POV go through Arondir chasing after Sauron. I think that woulda been fine. I dunno…
One way in which Galadriel showed how she was among the wiser of Noldor, along her brother, is that she was disgusted by her uncle Feanor arrogance and entitlement, even before the chaos that this one started.
The Rings of Power made Galadriel worst than Feanor, the kind of person that in her wisdom she disliked. Disgusting.
Weren’t Gal and Elendil friends?
A STAR IS NAMED FOR HIM!
And yeah in the beginning Gal had an ego. For she was Finwes daughter and was born on Valinor. But by the time she was fleeing home she had mellowed a bit. Right now she is seeking forgiveness because of the silmarils business. She feels she will never be welcomed on the shores on Valinor. Lots of pain she’s in. 😢
Lord of the rings was a great movie and the books were I have no words for those masterpieces.
She's a strong independent woman!!!!!!!!!!!!
Raaaaaaaaaaaahhh
I need no man!!!!!! 🤣
They made her a typical Edgelord. Tragic backstory, self appointed mission of vengence, kills at the drop of a hat, threatens people willy nilly, threatens to torture and kill prisoners.
Because they do not know the source material. They have no idea of the lore or why anyone likes it.
You guys hit it right on the nose. This is the most basic form of pride and narcissism writers can use to characterize their protagonist. Good to great writers understand nuance and are able to show pride and possibly narcissism in a manner that’s more attuned to real life. It’s much more subtle yet when the time comes for it to rear its ugly head, the impact is so much greater. With Galadriel in Rings, the writers have her being completely bullish and overbearing with her pride. It’s uncomfortable to watch it’s so poorly done. You get that feeling, like when you’re embarrassed for someone, and you know that they have totally screwed up.
Anyways, you guys are 100% right about how poorly Galadriel has been written.
This shows a dumpster fire
I agree
Indeed, they can only represent what they know when it comes to morality, too. They think this is acceptable behavior because it’s how the women they actually are/know in their insular world behave
She is the embodiment of the "modern female" ideology.
There's no art left in the Artistry there's only fanfiction. And every original idea that they come up with is so horrendously political that it ends up blowing up in their face.
She was supposed to be a mind warping witch bent on hunting down Sauron.
They wrote her in like a lame spicy-elf instead.
Galadriel was born in Valinor under the tutelage of the wisest of Elves and among Angelic type beings the Valar. She is older than the Sun and Moon. This is how they present her? A twisted and perverse adaptation of Tolkien's Masterpiece.
Her dead stare is one of the worst parts of the portrayal, and unlike bad writing and directing this is on the actress herself. When you have no audio the dead, and expressionless look is just intensified
How about her speaking? She barely move her lips it's so annoying, it's like she's eternally pissed
The writers of this show need to be fired. There’s no way no one at Amazon can’t see how bad they are.
Modern writers with a sociopolitical agenda and the subtlety of a brick.
Isn’t that personality type and demeanor, the exact things women find so ugly in men. I would agree with them as well. That’s why I, a 50 year old, find myself reading foreign literature, that seems to root for the underdog. Almost to much at times, but honor and putting the noble, politician, business leader, or person power in they’re place, is key to what I read most. All points which seem to be lost on American creators recently.
Galadriell woke master🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
The Rings of Power is TERRIBLE. Cate B did such a wonderful job in the movies as Galadriel. This immature character is NOT Galadriel (she's thousands of years old by this time and would NOT act this way). They are failing to show that she's one of the oldest of the Eldar still in Middle Earth. They also glossed over so much backstory that the folks that haven't read the Silmarillion have not real clue what's going on.
Aside from them butchering her character, Galadriel is supposed to be tall but in ROP she's like 5 feet
GLADREIL ....according to me is ultra feminine saviour the ultimate woman who is giving caring and yes not be messed with. Who is proud but not the kind they depict
Tolkien will be very upset
I'm quite sure that the screenwriters used Galadriel to depict an image of their mothers. They also recreated the model of relationships between dominant mothers and weak fathers. So we see that a strong woman is aggressive, and dangerous but also a powerful protector. It gives me thoughts that something is wrong with modern men.
I think you’re giving them to much credit but I see you😎
This is how feminists seem masculine power. They see the physicality of it. They do not see the thousand times a day where men control their emotions and ignore the slings an arrows of daily life.
That part of men is silent, and invisible. So when they write a female character and "empower" her with masculinity, it comes off as hollow and psychotic.
When writers write women like heroic women, you end up with Sarah Conner and Ripley types. But you cant do that. Those characters are physically weak and cannot displace men, only stand equally with them. Which oddly is the very thing feminism claims to want. How very odd...
Exactly they don’t realize that masculine strength is shown foremost in self control. Perfect example? Jesus Christ. Look at superheroes, they are all compared by how much damage they can do. But God almighty who can delete the universe in a second accomplishes his goals without the need for destructive force
On the rag all the time. Oy.
She was proud, strong, and self-willed, as were all the descendants of Finwë save Finarfin; and like her brother Finrod, of all her kin the nearest to her heart, she had dreams of far lands and dominions that might be her own to order as she would without tutelage. Yet deeper still there dwelt in her the noble and generous spirit of the Vanyar, and a reverence for the Valar that she could not forget. From her earliest years she had a marvellous gift of insight into the minds of others, but judged them with mercy and understanding, and she withheld her goodwill from none save only Fëanor. In him she perceived a darkness that she hated and feared, though she did not perceive that the shadow of the same evil had fallen upon the minds of all the Noldor, and upon her own.
This galadriel is NOTHING like the one Tolkien describies. She is quite literally the exact opposite
Yes! That's Galadriel, you understand her character, i think she fear Feanor bc he was a powerfull elf with a child personality, its like seeing a child playing with an AK-47, tragic in a sentence
I don't why the writters are obseced of making a leading female character like this, its disgusting and utter contradictory if you read minds you don't have, you don't need violence, but meh.
The stories and characters that i made when i was 14 have more understanding and realistic touch than this series, and i most to say that when i read my scripts again i feel annoyed and cringe, but i was a kid without intentions of beign professional on writting; the problem here is that this series was indeed written, directed, screenplayed by actual professionals. This is scandalous
Medieval Ray Skywalker
At least Ray liked ppl😆
*ray palpatine
They went ahead and Last Jedi'd Galadriel times a million.
This is Amazon's version of the Elven sorceress who is literally older than Middle-Earth's sun and considered amongst the wisest and most perceptive amongst her people even when she was 'young' .
And guess who AmazonGaladriel's been making eyes at?
thats galadriel watching tons of woke vids.
We saw how strong the real Galadriel was in lotr. Her mere stare was enough to give chills into the heart of an enemy.
Way more interesting than what we got here
Why would galadreal do this she not psycho he says, totally forgets the scene where she nearly took the one ring from Frodo and could have stolen all of Sauron’s power for herself.
Ah yes, the One Ring, you know, the object that can ensnare even divine beings such as Gandalf and Saruman
Even in the 1st Age she was more of a voice for the Noldor revolution than anything else. Feänor was the warrior, the fighter. And as a further point, Galadriel came to hate him BECAUSE of his ways and actions against their kin. So why would she later adapt his methods, even loosely?
She'd do well in TushyRaw 🤪
"From her *earliest years* she had a marvellous gift of insight into the minds of others, but judged them with mercy and understanding." ~Unfinished Tales
Lmao, I guess this is their standard of someone deemed as the "fairest and wisest of all beings", worthy of one of the Great Rings.
Again, low standards, the writer got too much pride and emotional baggage to write a character such as Galadriel.
She's like a douchebag who got something to prove, frantically showing off her dominance through violence to let people know that she's a strong women.
Non Tolkien characters and poor dialogue makes this show a farce.
I’ve sat there with injured insurgents, captured detainees, and never treated them as badly as GaLadriel treats & speaks to people, these writers have never dealt with any situation like this.
I literally thought this exact thing when I first saw this scene.
