Going back through this knowing what happens in the show I realized just how much does not fit together at all. These are not mismatched puzzle pieces, these are puzzle pieces mixed with lego pieces, duplo pieces, plastic Spitfire model kit parts all presented like they perfectly fit together creating something that can be recognized by a human mind as a story.
I remember starting this series and thinking "oh I better read the Silmarillion so I have more context for this age" and now watching this after finishing it and seeing just how much they bastardize what's written in the Silmarillion is just sad to me. It's like they didn't even try to stick to the legendarium at all. The whole Mythril creation thing with the Balrog, tree, lightning and the BONUS Silmaril had my heart and head aching.
@@proto-type3201 Yes. Rags. Rags can be very insightful. Rags can also be a "LULZ, BRO! TEE-HEE-HEE!" Rags can also be a passive-aggressive mutter-under-one's-breath individual. I do *not* know if Rags uses the "LULZ, BRO" defense in the event of having an objectively bad take...
Efap is so long, that even a highlight reel is 12hours, and damn if they would say the ship sails because it weights the same as a duck, it would make more sense.
@@causticorator618 You know who some random shitty highligt channel is, but not one of their most frequent guests who was part of a major falling out with the fanbase? Okay, dude
Even the highlights are longer than the show. Truly, their ability to bend time into a pretzel and create content from nothing beggars the imagination and stretches the bounds of sanity.
every facet of this show exemplifies laziness, arrogance, and lack of care. The dialogue is written by an AI that was only fed tommy wiseau, pantomime, and ironic stage performances. The choreography is designed by people that have never even played a videogame or read a book involving warfare or combat, literally just people with swords move toward each other. props and costumes are like a really rushed but wealthy middle school play. The Story, simply is not. Characters have none, or at least what little there is is outweighed by contradictions. Truly an incredible production.
I literally couldn't continue watching this show past that dialogue about boats and stones. It was so cringe inducing I actually became physically uncomfortable listening to anything else the characters said. It was worse than Middle School fan-fictions. It was anti-Tolkien. It was fake wisdom of the most cringe order.
The reasons they didn't show it is because Amazon only has rights to the appendixes. which are juts a lexicon of names with minor descriptions. They don't have th rights to o the silmarilion or the lost tales.
@@666lupine666 Well, *YOU* would not have paid for "the rights to LotR" as Amazon did. But you are not Amazon. It is possible that good quality material could have been created by Amazon - if, for example, they created a story arc that took place exclusively in Near Harad, or perhaps even Mordor itself, or even some land farther to the east, beyond what was on official maps... Or they could have taken the characters and, unironically, created a storyline which did not violate the existing Lore of the LotR setting... But, again, Amazon did not...
There's so much wrong with this show, but I simply can't get past the costumes. Cheaply made generic medieval outfits. I really don't know where all that money went. I don't see quality anywhere.
@@Ladenstarfish It's fair for them to enjoy the films, but they're very inconsistent in their coverage of the show and the Peter Jackson films. Some of them have read the books (Nerdrotic and Wolf), but they barely call out the PJ movies for deviating from the books. And when they judge the films and show on its own (ignoring the lore), then they often criticize RoP and the Hobbit trilogy for stupid bs, but ignore the LotR trilogy for doing similar stupid bs. Example: they rightfully mock Celebrimbor not knowing what an alloy is. But they don't question how 100+ Uruk-hai manage to sneak up to Aragorn (a ranger) on Amon Hen.
@reek4062 I think I understand your point. Here's how I see it: if you're doing evaluations of employees in your company and you have individuals who show up on time every time vs those who show up late consistently you'll be inclined to overlook certain errors for the on time people that wont overlook for the late people. I see EFAPS criticism of media similar, if they enjoy something a great deal they overlook certain flaws that they would hammer another piece of media into the ground for. The overall experience is the lens from which all of the criticism / praise follows. So when they watch LOTR and there's so much that works well in it they gloss over smaller details and when they watch ROP the fundamental broken nature of the show makes them dig into the smaller details with more vigor. This isn't a criticism or a defense of EFAP, just what I've noticed while editing these videos.

You mean Rags?
@@minion3806 this is the first time I've seen a video on this channel. I only know drinker,disparu and platoon,so names won't work with me

time stamp pls?
@@minion3806 time stamp?
Al-Pharizon was right. When she threw the guards in their own cell, she literally took their jobs
I love how the hyperlight reel is still 12 hours. Shows how much time they spent covering this. 🤣
Thanks for making it.♥️
This one was rough to squeeze into one video. 😅
Thanks for the kind words brother
Birds would be proud. Welcome to the LONGlight reelverse.

I uttered my first, unbridled *_squee!_* when this popped up in my recommended. Bless you, you massive.
Hell yeah man! Makes me so happy to hear
I'm just here for the tism and the fleems.
dude excellent tysm, i wasn't able to show up for any of the streams and dreaded going through them just to get to the meat
Hell yeah man glad I can make the experience more digestible. 😊
@@Ladenstarfish You gave the meat and gave it to us RAW
@@poissonsumac7922 nah, this was cooked to perfection
You didn’t watch the streams? You have not seen, what I have seen.

Could we get a short explanation?
Appreciate these highlight videos
MauLer: i believe he wrote Hyperlight in the title.
You did it okay the way you did it.
High praise
@@Ladenstarfish The Dark Lord, Jared Genesis, would be proud.
Couldn't believe it when the noob Galadriel killed Han Solo
3:53:00 BUT YOU SEE? It's SYMBOLTISMS because orc think tree bad, so tree branch kill orc because orc bad, is actually best show.
This will be great to rewatch before S2 lol
Thanks so much for making this. Watching on 1x for your watch time.
I'm happy to be of service my friend, thankyou!
Couldn't make it 4 seconds longer?
fair criticism

Just realised the highlight reel is 12 hours long ha ha
This is the way
I was looking for something like this! Time to embrace all of the FAP fleems and tisms before Season 2.
look at you, disciple of the long... 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you laden🐐 I was wondering who this streamer was that kept popping up that I followed, keep up the streams too!🙌🏾

A 12 hr hyper light reel, extraordinary
You'll be at 100k subs in no time
I gave you a like because, almost 12 hrs. Don't worry I liked all the og content too. Probably.
Never stop man, doing lords work. Out of curiosity what was your editing experience before this project?
Thankyou so much man! I used to put together video game scenery & music videos for the tunes I'd make.

Maaaaybe

Thx bro
I've got you mate
Thank u gang

Nyes

Nah, I can't be Welsh
Cool
Since bin in Arabic means the son of
Does that mean your son is bin laden
Joe mama bin laden
@@Ladenstarfish glad you keep to the classics
11 hours pretty sexist smh
Love efap but ppl be right about some of his fans. His chat is disgusting at times.
There's so much wrong with this show, but I simply can't get past the costumes. Cheaply made generic medieval outfits. I really don't know where all that money went. I don't see quality anywhere.
This is stolen content mauler is apparently aware of so you're lucky he's chill
Do better Hassan.
Don't reply saying you transformed it no you did not and legally you wouldn't even get to court with that defence
Supercut of their s1 rop would be 1hr. You're literally directly stealing thousands of views from mauler so if you're a fan please stop and do better
Aware you're a small channel but 11k in 8 days, before long you have a library stealing 20% of moolers views
At which point btw even lenient mauler will shut you down so I'm actually genuinely giving good advice
You're either trolling or you're clueless.
A bunch of nitpickers and Peter Jackson fans dissecting some fan-fiction?
Are you new here? O.o
@@Ladenstarfish yes.
I saw their EFAP on the Peter Jackson films and they were way too lenient.
@reek4062 thats fair. They really enjoyed those films as a whole so they would be more lenient about errors
