    Hey, she faced down a pyroclastic flow. Falling off a cliff means nothing to Guyladriel. You go, girl!

      *Googles pyroclastic flow*
      average speeds of 100 km/h (30 m/s; 60 mph) to 700 km/h (190 m/s; 430 mph)
      temperatures of about 1,000 °C (1,800 °F)
      So 57% the speed of sound and hotter than a house fire (760 °C/1,400 °F)

    Galadriel should have been a pile of goo falling from that height. Well, Sauron was a pile of goo for awhile, why not just do the same for Galadriel. Have Galadriel in season three just flopping around as a sentient pile of goo following the other Elves around. Just feed her rats and bugs, maybe later a human, and she's back into proper form.

    Galadriel was supposed to go through Moria and found Lothlorien by now, with her husband Celeborn. I think we can say that Amazon has killed Lord of the Rings and animated an undead zombie in its place, with none of the wonder, beauty, or life that Tolkien gave the original.

    • @visitingforgefather5997
      @visitingforgefather5997 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Actually Galadriel and Celeborn never founded Lothlorien.
      Lothlorien already existed for quite some time, all the way back to the First Age.
      For a long time they had no lord until after the First Age a Noldor elf by the name Amdir would rule them.
      During the Sack of Eregion he send his son Amroth with an army to aid Celebrimbor.
      They travel through Khazad Dum and linked up with an army of dwarves Durin III had gathered to also help Celebrimbor.
      They arrived too late to save the city, since Sauron had marched his army far faster then everyone had anticipated.
      They did save Elrond (he was send by Gil Galad with an army to reinforce Eregion but also arrived too late) who was evacuating survivors but was being chased by a vast army of orcs.
      The intervention of Amroth, his army and the dwarves saved Elrond and the survivors of Eregion, who would escape and found Rivendel.
      Amdir would later die during the War of the Last Alliance.
      The lordship of Lothlorien fell on Amroth but he had been heavily affected by the war and left Lothlorien to go to Valinor with his wife Nimrodel.
      Galadriel and Celeborn would then take leadership and during the later part of the Third Age founded Caras Galadhon because of the growing threat from Dol Guldur.
      Edit more details I remembered.
      Before the Sack of Eregion happened Galadriel and Celeborn already had their daughter Celebrian.
      Galadriel and Celebrian would pass through Khazad Dum to go to Lothlorien but Celeborn wouldn't because of his enmity towards dwarves and stayed in Eregion. (His enmity towards dwarves was prejudice on his part. Another dwarf House known as the Firebeards (House of Durin is known as the Longbeards) was responsible for that enmity but he treats dwarves as if they are all the same. Which was foolish on his part since the House of Durin had nothing to do with those events and they maintained friendship with the Elves the longest out of all Houses.)
      He fought during the Sack of Eregion and, when the city fell, helped Elrond with his evacuation.
      He then helped found Rivendel, defended it during its first siege.
      Only after Sauron was defeated by Thar- Minastir and his Numenorian armies were Galadriel and Celebrian able to travel to Rivendel and reunite their family.
      They would travel Middle Earth for quite some time until the later half of the Third Age when they traveled back to Lothlorien and became the Lord and Lady of the Galadhrim.
      Celebrian and Elrond would later fall in love and marry. (hence why so many people are so disgusted by that Elrond and Galadriel kiss in the show)
      Extra edit: Thank you for pointing out my mistake of calling Celebrian Celebrain alexg3434

      @@visitingforgefather5997 I see. I am a bit short on details as you can see. But how much better would ROP had been if they had just followed this script that already existed! One of the "showrunners" claimed that Tolkien was not a very good storyteller, but this is so much better than what they they replaced it with. I think maybe they're trying to make it bad.

      @@barryf7253 The arrogance on the part of the "showrunners" really irks me.
      They have so much material to work with but still have enough space to make other smaller stories where they can make their own characters.
      Instead they actively seem to antagonize fans of Tolkien with their poor storytelling.
      As a great fan of Tolkiens dwarves the whole Durin thing left a foul taste in my mouth.
      To clarify Durin is very special among the dwarves, he was the very first dwarf to awaken in the world.
      The dwarves actually believed he would reincarnate six times.
      So apart from Durin I every Durin that came after was not born with the name Durin they were recognized as Durin.
      The whole process is a mystery but we know that being a direct descendant of Durin, appearance and morality played a part.
      That would have been interesting to explore.
      Having a dwarfs entire life turned upside down by being recognized as Durin.
      Imagine the pressure and expectation suddenly being trust on him, while everyone suddenly treats him differently.
      Instead this mess of a show has Durin III and Durin VI around at the same time period (despite there being at least a thousand year between these two and the average lifespan of a dwarf being around 250 years) and being father and son.
      I was actually in the process of editing my message since I remembered more details but I shall give them here as well.

      @@visitingforgefather5997 From what I have heard, the infamous kiss was intended to cause controversy, in order for the show to gain popularity through shock value. So it seems they are taking the low road Jerry Springer style, rather than giving us a faithful adaptation. But of course just about everyone suspects that by now. They just don't think Tolkien's stories are good enough on their own merits to generate views, which makes you wonder why they chose to adapt them in the first place. The question is: do they underestimate the fans, or disdain and disregard them? There is a smug superiority about them which makes me think it is the latter. Tolkien being a relic of the past makes him inferior from their perspective, and not woke enough for today's morally superior view of the world, again from their self-centered point of view.

      1. Both Firebeards and Broadbeams had migrated to Moria at the end of the First Age (as their ancestral homes of Nogrod and Belegost had been wrecked) so Celeborn's distaste for entering Moria did have some basis.
      2. Its Celebrian, not Celebrain (the latter might be what cruel school mates called her in the playground). ;o)

    I think they are in the valley that will become Rivendell, meaning they have travelled a fair distance from Eregion? Which in the timeline of the show means it took her anywhere from a few minutes to a few weeks to recover.
    I would not count on her personality changing all that much though. She is still singlehandedly responsible for just about everything that has gone wrong in Middle Earth in the second age. You could probably say she is even indirectly responsible for the fall of Numenor. I’m really not seeing that she has learned from her mistakes. It’s more a head injury induced change of character than anything else.

    I don't know if that's just some people's wishful thinking, or if it's a "we were right" kind of righteous affirmation and wish fullfilment, but the show is not going to be cancelled now. It has pre allocated huge budgets for more seasons, it's getting enough engagement (even though it should be getting 10x that) and the controversy surrounding it is driving some traffic to it still. Our only hope is for them to get some more advisors/writers (there are rumours of that already happening) and to change course on how they do stuff in comparison to the first 2 seasons, that were writtten before any public feedback from the 1st season. Though I'm not holding my breath on that one.
