John Rhys-Davies is returning to the role of Gimli - and to Nerd of the Rings! Join me on Tuesday, Oct 17 as JRD talks Return to Moria, does another iconic Gimli reading, and MUCH more! th-cam.com/video/pFYTKnwRItA/w-d-xo.html
Correct me if i am wrong, but Legogas does acknowledge Imrahil as an 'Lord as well? He also points out the elven lineage...
@Matt Need Harry Potter Channel.?🙏🙏🙏
To this day, I'm greatful for John Rhys-Davis playing Gimli while allergic to the prosthetics! Please thank him for everything he went through to be part of the masterpiece of our age! It wouldn't be the same without him!
You guys should have an interview channel
@NerdoftheRings
I'd like to point out that at 13:22 you name Elfwine as the only named grandchild of Imarhil. I'm here to point out the 24th Prince of the City, Alphros Swan-foam, son of Elphir, son of Imrahil born in 3017 before the War of the Ring, who would serve his king until his death at the age of 99 in FA. 95.
We actually have some of the most information about Imrahil's family, at least in names, of any Manish character.
'If Gondor has such men still in these days of fading, great must have been its glory in the days of its rising'. Said of Prince Imrahil the Fair
By Legolas, if I'm not mistaken.
@@theradgegadgie6352I believe you’re correct.
A beautiful quote. Legolas was even more graceful in the books than he was in the films. Gorgeous 😂
At length they came to the Prince Imrahil, and Legolas looked at him and bowed low; for he saw that here indeed was one who had elven-blood in his veins. ‘Hail, lord!’ he said. ‘It is long since the people of Nimrodel left the woodlands of Lórien, and yet still one may see that not all sailed from Amroth’s haven west over water.’
.... ‘That is a fair lord and a great captain of men,’ said Legolas. ‘If Gondor has such men still in these days of fading, great must have been its glory in the days of its rising.’
If even Legolas thinks you're cool, you must have done something right in your life.
Interesting that it's not mentioned if Legolas saw anything elvish in Boromir.
@@dlxmarksBoromir’s apparent traits were more on the physical, bravery side and his spiritual and knowledge traits seemed under developed compared to his brother Faramir in whom all these traits were present along with the humility of personality that Boromir lacked until the end when he redeemed himself fighting to the end to protect the hobbits. Usually elves were not merely physically dominant but also knowledgeable and artistic as well as spiritual. This set them apart from humans who resemble elves physically. Ironically, their father’s unequal treatment of them probably led to this development in which Boromir was over confident and didn’t develop his elvish side which could have helped him resist the ring and Faramir was looked down upon for his elvish traits and reprimanded by his dad which taught him humility and patience. It seemed that Denethor blamed Faramir for weakening his wive Finduilas in birth and afterward due to pain at her passing cannot abide by being reminded of elven traits. He really failed his sons and his stewardship due to negligence because he was overwhelmed by his emotions. I really could not stand him at all.
Dol amroth could have ruled Gondor but the prince restrained himself
That says a lot about his loyalty and integrity
they are not from the ruling family. Them taking the throne would have sparked another civil war.
Glorfindel's human counterpart, he is.
Damn shame he was never adapted to the big screen; everything I've read about him makes him to be a great and virtuous hero.
The issue may have been because he could have deviated the spotlight off Aragorn. And knowing Hollywood, they may have made Imrahil a bitter reluctant supporter of Aragorn's claim as King due to Imrahil's own claims to the throne despite Aragorn having a greater claim to it. Its the equivalent to say...if a descendant of the Plantageant Kings of England emerged in today's society to challenge the Sussexes for the throne.
Aragorn would have been the equivalent to a Plantageant heir and Imrahil being the equivalent to a Sussex. Always the older dynasty would have a better claim to the throne but alot of times if not most of the time...the older dynastic descendant wont chase his claim to the throne for the sake of himself and the people...and recognizing that his family's claim to the throne is long passed and that its better to serve the current line of Kings than to oppose it.
I think he may have been too cool and would have stolen the limelight.
I was absolutely amazed by him when I read the book at 11 or twelve. Just the kind of man a troubled boy like me would look up to. I can still remember envisioning his shiny armour and the banners and the men behind him, wanting to be not just like him, but really be him.
When I read the trilogy I was so astonished he wasn't in the movie, along with Halbarad (and someone else from south Gondor but I can't remember his name)
@@galaxydeathskrill5607 I dont know about South Gondor and I bet you dont mean South Gondor, because that land was disputed between Harad and Gondor. I bet you mean Forlong the Fat, the old, Lord of Lossarnach. He came with 200 men.
One of my most favourite Characters, Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth. Brave, Strong, Proud, Loyal, Steadfast 🔥
I love the “Big 3” dynamic the book creates for Aragorn, Imrahil, and Eomer. Even with leaving Imrahil out of the movie, I think more could have been done to enrich the friendship between Eomer and Aragorn.
Absolutely! Agreed!
I like that when Legolas and Gimli meet Imrahil in Minas Tirith, Legolas immediatly recognises that Imrahil has elvish blood in him.
Man, I'm almost crying just listening to the descriptions. Tolkien is the GOAT
He was to the English-language novel what Shakespeare was to the English-language stage play.
He's a terrific character in his own right, and he helps to make Gondor feel more significant than one besieged city.
When I first read the books, something about the fiefdoms, Dol Amroth and Imrahil especially, stuck with me. There was something so badass about a group of Elite knights, Inheritors of Numenorian and Elven blood and tradition, clad in shining armour, a shining beacon against the darkness from whence no Orc, Southron or Easterling could stand.
It's amazing how Tolkien was able to create all these characters who don't play a major role in the story but still feel so real.
I love how even though the battle rages on he takes time to grieve the death of Theoden and perhaps even extends the survival of Eowyn, then proceeds to be victorious in battle and shows his loyalty to the true king of Gondor. I would love to see a short film for this man, although it would have to be done right.
A character I immediately liked when reading the books...Pity he doesn't get more attention than he does...
I do feel like the words "Your son has returned, Lord, after great deeds" were truly meant to chastise Denethor for sending Faramir on such a mission in the fist place, and for not acknowledging how much Faramir had already done.
Imrahil is such a fantastic character, and I do wish that more media would portray him! LotRO does a decent job, I feel, but it would have been incredible to see him in the films!
What actor do you think could have played Imrahil the best? I struggle to think of someone at the time the films were made to play him. However, I do love his character and wish he was in the films!
@@TheMasonK That is where I struggle too. It's hard to think of someone with the right bearing, if that makes sense. I know some people who would throw out David Tennant in a heartbeat, but I really don't agree with that.
@@TheMasonK Daniel Day-Lewis immediately comes to mind
@@fr.andygutierrez5356 I like that but maybe he plays Glorfindel better if we’re bringing in all book only characters.
Daniel Day Lewis in 2000*
"and few indeed had dared to abide them or look on their faces in the hour of their wrath."
This is an example of how Tolkien saw some men differently to how many today see them, even in the movies. These were men of high noble character, not merely good men. Our heroes today have flawed characters when you get to know them and can be disappointing. These men didn't just appear noble; they were noble through and through, and Tolkien had that characteristic shine forth when there was a need. This was one of the disappointments I have with Jackson's Aragorn, who didn't want to be king and shirked his responsibilities as the heir of Isildur until he found his way. The Aragorn of the book was always embracing his responsibilities, even before he was told about his lineage.
Yep.
Every hero these days has to be flawed or troubled in some way or another to make them more relatable to the average person.
But the heroes in Tolkien's day were meant to be paragons. Those who never stopped pursuing goodness and justice and didn't settle for "good enough". They were meant to embody the very best of humanity, an example for us to strive for.
Our society, for all its advancements and achievements, is greatly diminished without these ideals to strive for.
I keep coming back to this video. Comfort food.
The honor shown to Théoden King first by Prince Imrahil on the Pellenor Fields and later by Gondor as Théoden is lain in state in the Citadel of Gondor with an honor guard of both Rohan and Gondor warriors has alway moved me emotionally.
I always loved this character. I get that it would have been difficult to add him to the film, but he still played such a crucial part which I definitely missed.
Probably the most sorely missing character from the books.
I agree, Glorfindel as well
Glorfindel, Tom bombadil and Imrahil
@@roelandvanharselaar9777
Iarwain's really hard to pull off.
@@roelandvanharselaar9777those where the three I was going to say as well 👍🏼
Should be played by Tom Hiddleston
I remember loving to use him and the knights of dol Amroth in battle for middle earth game 😮
First with the story of Ulmo and now with this Story of Prince Imrihil, this channel has reinvigorated my love of the Tolkien legendarium. I knew a touch of each of these characters, but to hear their stories come alive by our great narrator, with deeply moving passages, was so awe inspiring as to make me yearn for much more.
Thank you so much for bringing this to us.
I absolutely love Prince Imrahil, what a cool character. So glad you're covering him.
Is he as cool as "The Hound" from GOT
I was so disappointed when he wasn't in the movies. Him, and the sons of Elrond.
Damn shame he wasn’t in the films. He’s definitely up there with the other great heroes.
There are many things that weren't in the movies that are in the books
@@madalinfilip6352 Tis probably why Tolkien never cared about the potential movie/television rights. If I recall, he more or less stated it'd be impossible to really do fully. He's definitely right. There are so many speaking parts. They are already gargantuanly long movies. Telling the story the way the books have it adds easily 30 or more to the length of the movies. That's kind of insane to think about. The Lord of the Rings is a very clear example of why written media (comics, books) are still very important in an age of increasing audio/visual dominance. There's just more room for creativity on paper there is in the visual space for certain and maybe in the audio as well because the budgets for them are far more sane.
Such a great video! I always loved the character of Imrahil... it would've been cool to have him in the movies, and Glorfindel as well
I remember learning about this guy after seeing his card in “War of the Ring” game
0:11 reminds me of a young Henry Cavill. Imagine if he were Imrahil in Return of the King.
Man you really bring out Tolkien's work. You narrateing this character almost brings a tear to my eye 🥹. Imrahil is such an awesome character.
Look forward to these videos every Saturday so interesting to learn a bit more about Tolkien’s world much thanks from Scotland!!! 👍
Prince Imrahill finding a wife for his nephew 😅😂 I can't believe I forgot about this amazing character 👏
Imrahil and Dol Amroth forever!!!!!
My favourite character in the lord of the rings. A shame we never saw him on the screen.
A knight of peerless courage and a man of honor. Would that we could be like his aspect.
Despite being fictional, great characters like that can still inspire us with courage, hope, and noble deeds in our real lives.
Despite being fictional, I still feel that the life, character, and deeds of great men like this are powerful and inspiring, and it gives me hope and courage.
Prince Imrahil is my favorite character whom we never got a chance to meet in the film trilogy! Would have been a phenomenal commander that would have made more sense than Gandalf wearing the captain's tactical hat during the film's seige! I digress a bit! 🎉 but man!
Not that I don’t love every video… this is my favorite video of the last few months. Beautifully done, as always.
I wish there was Imrahil and Elladan and Elrohir in PJ's movies but alas, he didn't fit him in. Imrahil had such a critical role during the war and even in LotR wished Tolkien mentioned more of him. I wonder if he talks about him in HOME Peoples of Middle earth?
I still regret very much that Imrahil and the Grey Company never made it into the films.
I think I heard Imrahil's name being mentioned in the Lord of The Rings films before.
There's a lot of characters I need to learn about in the world of LOTR, not just Feanor, Fingolfin, and Morgoth.
If you're looking for some good audiobooks, Andy Serkis narrates The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. It's quite good!
Prince Imrahil is one of the characters I really wish we would have seen more of in the movies. He would have deserved it.
I love the idea of a character who is powerful and noble yet content to be second in command because of his great virtue that is loyalty. Imrahil reminds me of Ultra Magnus, or Mon-El, or Beta Ray Bill. Someone nearly equal to their leader in virtue and power and prowess, but is willingly subordinate to the leader because of their insight and loyalty.
(I'm not trying to cheapen this by comparing it to that other 'low culture stuff' LOL but it's an awesome and cool character archetype)
Have you ever considered doing a reading of the Lord of the Rings or Silmarillion? I would absolutely love to listen to you, I think your voice and love for Tolkien would fit perfectly for « audiobooks » (sorry for my english im french canadian). 🙂
Ive finally gotten around to reading the three lotrs. When i got to the part of the swan knights and gandalf riding off to help the gondorians. I was hoping you had a video on imrahil and here we are.
Always cool to learn about the story of a character that is impactful to the tale, however unfortunate it is that we never saw him in the movie
If anyone in the future is crazy enough to do a direct adaptation of Middle Earth, no matter the medium, I will be excited to see Imrahil most of all
It is sad we didn't see Imrahil in the movies. 💙 Such a good character. And also we didn't fet to see all the vassals of Gondor & the diversity of the army. 🛡
Maybe it shouldn't be a surprise that Eomer and Elfwine were such noble men, and were tall. Eomer's grandmother Morwen was of the kin of the Princes of Dol Amroth, so they have Numenorean ancestors, and Elfwine on both sides, and both can trace their kinship to a Prince of Dol Amroth, and Elfwine twice!
Nice work dude thanks
This man is a BOSS!!!
"I hold the Lord Aragorn to be my liege Lord and King. to me his wish is a command"
So there were actually four pairings between elves and men?
Idril and Tuor
Arwen and Aragorn
Beren and Luthien
Imrazor and Mithellas?
Thank you so much for your interpretaion and passion of Tolkien!!!
Brilliant episode.
1:19 to 1:47
2:05 Prince Imrahil's sister was...Finduilas! Denethor's wife, and mother to Boromir and Faramir--both Imrahil's nephews!
2:20 'Imrahil and his wife have four children: three sons, and a daughter'
3:26 Don't forget Theoden King!
Kinda weird how such an major character was written out of the movies. I never knew of him before this video
He is an awesome character in the books. I wish we got more of him, he doesn’t have many chapters but makes a significant contribution.
audiences would get confused with yet another Great Man on the field. Movies cannot have too many characters otherwise audiences will get lost. Some might wonder why this great man isn't in charge.
Thank you!!! One of the most, if not the most overlooked character in THE WAR OF THE RING. I really wish Peter Jackson would've found a way to incorporate his character in the movies.
Truly a great hero. Wise and selfless. I always wished Jackson had put him in the movie. 🤘😁🖖🇨🇦
This is up there with your best work!!!
Imrahil being another GOAT
Love your channel, inspiring, been binge watching these Tolkein videos!
Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth and his mission to save Faramir is best part of story in Gondor before battle on Pelenor fields.
Not Nerd of the Rings making me simp for this fictional man 😍 I would have loved to see him in the films
Enjoyed this - Thank you!
When you learn that faramir and boromir are the nephews of imrahil you realize why they were so brave and strong.
Ah the battle of the Pelenor fields, the pinnacle of epicness...
Thanks, I’m so intrigued by this character!
One of my favourite characters awesome video as always
Awesome video! Thank you!
Prince Imrahil was a cool character, and so were his swan knights. A pity they didn't show up in the movie Return of the King. Would have been cool to see.
He really should have been in the movies. The way PJ handled the army of the dead and the return of the king is possibly the biggest mistake he made
Nice job. I really love your stuff
It feeds my obsession ❤️
Amazing video as always.
As Tolkien wrote in the "Nature of Middle Earth" the Dunedain with Elvish blood had no facial hair. Also they resembled the Noldor, tall, dark hair and grey eyes.
I just got that book. I'm finding it a bit tough to get through. Is there a good chapter to start with or did you go right from beginning?
@@floodkevin4716 Treat it more like a wiki and just pick and choose an entry / topic based on your interest at that particular time. Since it's all just info and not a narrative, there's no right or wrong way to read it. Give it a try, it's one of the most fun and enjoyable books in the Legenderium, as the info in it is pure gold.
@@ninsuhnrey thanks man I will! I saw some cool entries yesterday I'll dip into today
Wow so Imrahil's ancestor Imrazör & Mithralas add to Aragon & Arwen and Beren & Luthien wow..just wow.
Maybe Imrazör and Mithralas may not entirely qualify cos she left him but still...
The great unions of Elf and Man were Idril and Tuor , Beren and Luthien then Aragorn and Arwen. Imrazor and Mithrellas is a local story that didn't quite make the Elven storytellers. That'ws why Legolas doesn't know about Imrahil.
I really enjoyed this one. Thanks.
Love Your Videos so much and respect what you do!
They couldn’t put him in the movies because he would have upstaged the entire cast. Would have been distracting to the decay Jackson was attempting to portray through Denethor. But that would have been so cool to see
Imrahil is indeed a great character, shame on Jackson for not including him in the movies. Thanks for this great video!
The character of Imrahil was not included in the movies to the capacity that he was included in the books. The character of Irolas was originally meant to be Beregond but when that character was reduced to barely any screen-time they separated him from that. The Lord of the Rings: Trading Card Game retconned the character as Imrahil.
I have a question last week you talked about how the 7 and the 9 were made for the same purpose of corrupting elves and Sauron's plan B was to give them to the Men and Dwarves. So why did Sauron not use the rings he recovered from the dwarves to make more Nazgul since they would have the same impact on men that they did in the second age.
When it comes to the Rings recovered from the Dwarves, they were not suited for creating Nazgul (Ringwraiths) as the Nine Rings given to Men were. The Nine Rings had a more direct and profound effect on Men, easily turning them into wraiths under Sauron's control, while the Seven Rings given to the Dwarves enhanced their natural greed and ambition. The Dwarves were more resistant to Sauron's influence, which is why they were able to resist complete domination and eventually lose their Rings to dragons and other means.
In summary, Sauron's primary goal was to corrupt and control the races of Middle-earth through the Rings of Power. The Nine Rings he gave to Men were specifically designed for that purpose, and the Seven Rings given to Dwarves had a different influence. Sauron didn't use the Dwarven Rings to create more Nazgul because they wouldn't have the same effect on Men.
Answered by ChatGPT 3.5 since I also wanted to know the answer to this brilliant question 😅
@@unclepalp7048 That is literally contradicted by what is in the lore since the rings were made to corrupt the Elves and when that failed it was used against the men and dwarves. They worked the exact same but the natural resistance the Dwarves had in them negated the more harmful effects. If given to men then it would still have the same impact.
Basically it would be like if two people were shot in the exact same spot with the exact same type of gun using the same type of ammo but one had bullet proof vest on and the other didn't, one is going to cause way more damage and possibly death while the other is just going to leave a bruise and a good amount of pain. That does not mean the guns that shot the person with bullet proof vest was worse or less effective it just means the person shot was better equipped to deal with it. This was the best analogy I could think of off the top of my head because I needed something where the same tool was used against people who had at least one difference it is not perfect but the closest I can compare right now.
That is why I am asking someone who actually knows the lore then a second rate AI system that is just rewording lore instead of using critical thinking to give an answer based on their knowledge of the lore.
@@Lord-Emperor-Vader I agree completely with what you've just said. I just wanted to know the answer and was perhaps too eager, that's why i just asked ChatGPT to answer me ASAP 😅
@@unclepalp7048 Don't expect to get useful information about Tolkien from ChatGPT. Every answer I've ever seen contained multiple serious errors. Last one I saw said that after Beren returned to Beleriand, his missing hand was replaced with a silver one crafted by the Elves of Nogrod.
Possibly it was the very nature of the Dwarves that rendered the Seven Rings.
Being created by Aule, Smith of the Valar, the dwarves have a deep natural affinity for stone and metal, as well as their endurance/ resistance.
Would it not be possible, in such a world, that their resistance, though unconscious, could be active rather than passive? If that is the case, could this manifest as modification of the MAGICAL structure of the Seven? Reforging the original Elven magics into something more suitable for a Dwarf, so to speak?
After all, if not for the influence of the One Ring, the Seven and the Nine would have likely conferred some small positive benefit upon their wearers
I love the side characters in LoTR. Imrahil is one my favorites. I also love Elrohir son of Elrond.
Imrahil! I've been waiting for this one 😃
Great video. I always loved Imrahil.
Great video!!!
Quick thing. As far as the wiki states, Imrahil had a second grandchild (Alphros) through his son Elphir.
He would be several years older (born 3017 TA) and would become the 24th Prince of Dol Amroth.
In Deep Geek did his own take on the Prince a few weeks ago. Clearly a popular fellow! 😁
I actually had this video on my calendar then saw IDK's post the week before I was gonna release mine. haha. So I pushed it off a couple months.
@@NerdoftheRings Such is life! 😂 I am looking forward to seeing your take on this hero of Gondor
Great video i somehow dont remeber him time to go back and read it again.
I always wanted to know more about that region and people when looking at the map and reading the books!
Was waiting for you to do one after in deep geek
Thank you!
Love these videos
I knew if I waited long enough, they would cover Prince Imrahil
Love this, I so wish he could have made it into the movies.
OK but that illustration of the prince in the video thumbnail is just 🥵
What A Man ❤️
mithrellas most like passed away since she married imrazur, this can be construed from Legolas own word" not all elves that went south sailed to the west" since there were no living elves by the time of aragorn living in dol amroth..
@5:11, "Dor-en-Ernil" - Land of the Prince(s)
I understand why they left him out of the movie, but I wish they could have included him! My favorite book only character.
My favorite character of the third age...
OK, I had a slight crush on Imrahil when I first read "Return of the King." 😍
looking forward to this video, but I must quickly point out it made me laugh a bit when you said "puts him alone......in a group with these three!" Even in Sindarin that isn't what alone means.
