I love how Galadriel looked at Samwise as she said "yet hope remains while the company is true." She looked in Samwise's heart and saw he would never betray Frodo. Sam is the unsung hero of the story. Frodo would never have succeeded without him.
Roger Black Yes Samwise the brave is a true friend he would have drouned jus to get to his friend that love also he whooped the last daughter of Ungoliant
@@molinj.710 She raped Frodo and gave birth to mix of Hobbit and Elf child that become monster aka new Sauron, so it was revealed how Sauron was created and that history repeats over and over again, they are in the loop and Sauron is Frodo's son. Did you even read the books lol?
Molin J. He was making a joke. But Lady Galadriel can read peoples minds and when Boromir looked into her eyes she saw that he would betray the fellowship and this is why he starts weeping. She then later goes on to tell Frodo that he will be betrayed and the he knows who will try to take it and should be careful.
This scene was a transcendental experience in the cinema the first time I saw it. This scene happened not long after Gandalf's death. I had never read the books. I had no idea Gandalf was coming back. It was as if his power and wisdom hadn't been enough to support the quest and some had to take his place, the fate of Frodo's journey with the ring had to be guided by someone else, someone more powerful - Galadriel. I watched them climb the stairs around the trunk of the tree towards Galadriel's home - it looked like a church that had grown naturally out of the forest. And then she stepped down the stairs, from above, from the light, enrobed in it. There was this air about her of "So... I must involve myself in the affairs of the material Universe, it seems. How does one do this? It has been so long. Ah, yes, speech, I talk now. That is what happens. Hm. Let me see. Words. How do they work? Ah, I remember... yes, I remember..." It was breathtaking. It was a lot to do with the point in the story in which she emerged, but my goodness it worked. The need to destroy the ring stopped being a matter of survival and urgency and took on this sense of something beyond, of divine purpose. As if the purpose of the entire world was for evil to be confronted and destroyed, and she was the only person who fully understood this. I was enraptured. It was more like being in a magic spell than watching a movie in a cinema. It was like God was talking.
Emily Norris They were able to get the ents moving after centuries of not taking part on the events of Middle-Earth. I think they did enough not be considered as failures.
She senses his desires for the Ring but tells him not to give in because even now, there is hope through her telepathic conversation. Boromir has been stressed out throughout the whole movie because he carries a heavy burden to lead Gondor since it's on the brink of doom, he is desperate and gives in to temptation like most humans.
@@viccasaur and she switches to him when she speaks of love mingled with grief. His lands are all too familiar with it and he carries that burden on his shoulders, along with his father's ruinous whispers in his ears.
Fun Fact: Ian McKellen and Cate Blanchett became so close during the filming of the LOTR films that Peter Jackson joked that Sir Ian should go back into the closet and marry her.
Its a known fact that gay men and straight women can develop very strong bonds. I as a gay man, have a few female friends who if any outsider saw us would think we were a couple.
"He has fallen into shadow..." Husband: "Can you please stop doing that??? I was asking them!" Galadriel: "Then learn how to mind read. At least then you'd be good at something."
James Repstock Since we decided to travel together to Middle-earth, without asking permission from the Valar to do so, Galadriel felled under the Ban of the Valar cause we made our way to Middle-earth independently of Fëanor. Galadriel was banished but I don't. And this is a great advantage!!!
Galadriel was always the most scary character of the trilogy. Forget Golum, the orcs, the Barlock, Sauron, giant spiders, or Bilbo's meth face. She is the one that always gave me the creeps.
they used christmas lights to reflect in galadriel's eyes to make them look different from anyone else's eyes, because she had seen the light from the two trees of valinor and well, because she is super ancient and her eyes would reflect that. i find that's such a cool idea. you can really see that in her eyes when you know.
I can't unsee it after hearing about it on the appendices. It annoyed me in Return of the King when Galadriel was psychically talking to Elrond and did not have the same glint in her eye. Must have been pick up shots.
@@jasonfenton8250 Maybe Galadriel’s elven ring could allow her to telepathically communicate with other bearers of the elven-rings. Maybe that’s why she says that Gandalf “has fallen into shadow” because she can no longer sense him, being dead and all (at least until Eru resurrects him)
@@mechadoggy Nenya greatly enhanced her own powers and gave her yet other abilities which we don’t know about. What we do know is that with it, she was able to build purely from scratch an entire realm for her to rule and that’s impressive. I’d imagine her true powers have something to do with the twin trees in Valinor and/or the heavenly Queen Varda (Elbereth) of the Valar who has been described as bearing the light of Eru Illuvatar Himself upon her face.
@@notOEAH i think that kinda defines their characters, gimli is an oddity for his curiosity and empathy across races among dwarves and so is galadriel for elves, theyre kinda both stubborn and arrogant races by nature which is why they clash, and why men being more adaptable and impulsive and willing to live in the moment are the force of change in the world
@@CommunityFan he is been edgy. Gimli in the books portrays a courtly love to Galadriel , but in the more idealized form , as it wasn't a romantic love nor it had any adultery.
Galadriel, One of the last of the Noldor elves left on Middle Earth. She is considered to be the most powerful elf in Middle earth and one of the oldest. I think 7-10,000 years old. Galadriel is the ring bearer of Nenya, It is said that Lothlorian cannot be destroyed unless Sauron himself comes to visi because galadriel gaurds the forest
Mmogamerfr I think I read somewhere that Cirdan was one of those who awoke at Cuivie'nen (I know the spelling's wrong, that's my way of doing marks above letters)
Martin Csokas and Cate Blanchet are BY FAR the best elves in all lotr and hobbit movies. Their appearance, the way they speak, Martin's elvish accent and the distant look in his eyes. God they are perfect. Weaving and Bloom are awesome too but Celeborn and Galadriel are just on another level. The ARE elves.
Cate Blanchett is an actress of another dimension. I mean, she can pull off playing an immortal Elf - one really buys it. She's a goddess among mortal men, both in the movies and real life.
Rhuddlan obviously Galadriel is Noldor, born and raised in Valinor, her father is Finarfin son of Finwe Supreme King of Noldor Elves, Celeborn born and raised in Doriath, her father was Elmo brother of Elwe The King of Doriath and Supreme King of Telleri=Sindar elves
When Legolas mentions "of Shadow and Flame"... Galadriel face is just wow... She knows in advance what Legolas is about to say next...the terrible Balrogs thanks to whom she literally lost family members, and Morgoth killed all of her relatives directly or indirectly. All of her brothers, cousins, uncles, friends, her half-uncle and half-cousins were all of them killed by Morgoth actions, either by Morgoth himself, Sauron or the Balrogs and the Orcs. You really can feel her grief.
Not really. She's a nice person and a very dedicated actress, but she doesn't actually talk slowly or stare into your soul. And she definitely wouldn't freak out if you offered her a ring 🤣🤣
"Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-dum fill your heart, Gimli son of Gloin, for the world has grown full of peril, and in all lands, love is now mingled with grief". Only now do I realize how much that meant to Gimli, because one of the things about dwarves is that, just like hobbits, they are deeply tied to their homes, their kin, and Galadriel is telling Gimli to have courage, to keep fighting on, for there are people like him who have lost their homes and families to the war. Not only that, it's one of the kindest things an Elf has ever said to him.
I agree, and her dialogue with Gimli in the book is even better. In the book, it’s Haldir that says that line about peril and grief, but Galdriel’s gift and words of farewell to Gimli (in the books) was one of my favorite parts. I definitely recommend all to read it.
Coming back and watching this scene after Rings of Power.....omg this is SO much better. It is like the elves aren't just actors with pointy ears glued on. The way they speak, their presence, even walking in to meet Galadriel and Celeborn was like walking into another world. The scenes had time to breathe, the score was haunting. ALL things completely missing from ROP.
This movie trilogy hit all the right notes in terms of acting, set design, costume, music…AND sticking very close to the source material. This trilogy set the standard for epic fantasy in cinema. One that has not been matched since. But I am glad it exists, all the same.
Is it possible that due to the rings of power given to them by Celebrimbor eventually, theyll become more ethereal? As of now in the RoP, the elves function more as soldiers like Legolas. It feels like a good development part for Galadriel despite it not being lore.
If you were Celeborn you'd really have to hold it down to survive... You'd have a wife 1000x more powerful than you that can read your mind and you couldn't even think about looking at another elf or she'd have your balls.
That's funny but still Celeborn was strong and beautiful too and Elves are monogamous and love someone for life so I don't think he would look another Elf lol
xRPTRxLANDx Its because she didn't trust Feanor and she knew that he was not true of heart. But she knows Gimli, though tough skinned, is pure of heart....so she gave him more than he asked for or could ever expect to receive from her.
She looks at each member of the fellowship in turn. - First, Aragorn, from whom she learns the truth about Gandalf. - Legolas then speaks up and clarifies the details using words like a cave man. - Galadriel then looks at Gimli and is happy to see the purity of his heart. - Next up is Boromir. He does not enjoy his telepathy session. - Merry and Pippin get the briefest of glances. - She looks at Sam, and she likes what she sees (same as Gimli). - And then with Frodo being the POV character in this scene we see first hand what she's been doing to all the other characters. Poor Boromir.
@@ViNtAgELovv11 I'm not deep into the lore like some people here, it's just the way I see the scene. But I'll just say what I can without elaboration here and explain why I jumped to the conclusion she's using telepathy with everyone. In lore, she can use telepathy (according to Google), and in the film, she appears to use it here, at least at the very end of this scene with Frodo. They show her eyes apparently making contact with Aragorn before she confidently says of Gandalf "he has fallen into shadow". She and Celeborn seem not to have known this beforehand, because Celeborn states his wish to speak with Gandalf. And then the camera focuses on nearly every one of the characters individually. Boromir is the only one to break down emotionally and avert his eyes, and she does not smile at him at all, almost as if she can see what is in his future. In contrast she smiles broadly at Gimli and Sam.
@@ViNtAgELovv11 indeed she mentally-tests each member of the fellowship in succession, while talking. Showing that on film would likely drag out the scene way too long, so they only hint at it with Frodo at the end.
Honestly I like the way Frodo looks at Galadriel. Everyone seems overcome by her beauty, aside from Aragorn who sees her as the queen she is. The way Frodo looks at her to me says he sees her as a fellow ring bearer, even though he wouldn't know she was one. You can see those knowing looks they give each other throughout their interactions. Here, when she waves him farewell as they leave Lorain, and epically during her drowned queen moment.
Galadriel is also one of very few characters (like Glorfindel in Rivendell) who is a higher spiritual being. As Frodo carries the ring, he gets more sensitive to the other world; it's part of why he can see the true forms of the ring-wraiths and why he is able eventually to see the ring on Galadriel's finger. I like to think that in this scene he is seeing a dimension to her that the others can't.
Nothing could possibly stress out Frodo more than the burden of bearing the One Ring. Meeting Galadriel is a dramatic moment for everyone else and you can see it in their eyes, but Frodo has essentially seen some shit so to me his look is one of "meh, she's hot but whatever."
Probably Galadriel would remember better - I expect she would be closer to Maedhros, FIngon, Turgon, Glorfindel, and would certainly know more of Feanor and that Feanor was defeated by one of them makes them very cool in her eyes.
This scene seems even cooler after having read the Silmarillion and knowing their backstory. Balrog of Morgoth... shudders. Though the elven family trees are impossible to keep straight.
***** Galadriel and Celeborn fought against Morgoth (Melkor) the first and greatest dark lord from the first age when many elven kingdoms were on midde earth and Morgoth had armies of Balrogs that were sent to those kingdoms during the battles. Few elves killed Balrogs in battle as Glorfinder from Gondolin that fell fighting a Balrog during the fall of Gondolin, the last elven kingdom of the first age. So when Legolas says: "a Balrog of Morgoth' I am pretty sure dark memories come to Celeborn and Galadriel, they know what Gandalf fought.
***** Morgoth is more then a Dark Lord he is the first evil and darkness. A God. Son of Illuvatar and Sauron was such his vicegerent. Gandalf and Sauron are from the same Race.But he and the the other Magicians follow the light Sauron the darkness of Melk or.
Teddybomber87 Morgoth is no god. There is only one God, even in Middle-earth: Eru Iluvatar. Read the Ainulindale, and you'll see that Eru makes it extremely clear that there are no other gods beside Him.
This is how you make a female a "badass" in her own right, with good writing and powerful delivery, not through pointless swordfighting and psychopathic behaviour.
Absolutely. She is able to disturb a man to tears just through the profundity and wisdom of her glance. Way more powerful and intriguing than StRoNG WoMaN.
@@bayquell7587Well, although it is not shown in the movie, she actually talks to him through his mind and gives him hope, a hope that he replies cannot see.
IMHO, nothing captures a fantasy world better than the opening of this scene. You really feel like you're experiencing another universe with no trace of your own.
Spihk Heartbust!? Spihk Heartbust at home fam mates internet friends for Previous Bain Server who called Bozeman Hotmail Recipient ugly on Bain Server track!
I never noticed before that the elves talked so much slower than everyone else. It makes so much sense since they live so long. How did I never notice that before
The original trilogy truly captured the awe, wonder, and magic of the books. I'm not a ROP hater by any means, but it just doesn't have the sauce. Elves should absolutely be these ethereal, angelic creatures from the perspective of hobbits. In ROP, they're just normal people with pointy ears.
Imagine how it was for Thingol and Melian: An Elf married to a wiser and mightier angelic-being who was on par with the likes of Sauron, and far surpassed the power of Gandalf and Saruman. Yeah...
@@Mr.LaughingDuck I suppose noldor prince/princess, not to mention faithful angel, would be so morally pure that even idea of bullying her loved one would be utterly incomprehensible and abominable to her. After all Melian gave portion of her powers to Thingol to even the distance between the two and that was act out of true love I think. Not to mention, because she beget a child she could no longer be free of the earthly form she had chosen which was an act of self-sacrifice.
whoever made the decisions to picture elfs like this (maybe it wasnt only peter) is a literal god. THIS is how elfs should be depicted, the music, the way the move and speak, the ligh coming from them, this is a maserpiece.
I love the way that Galadriel defends Gandalf for taking the Fellowship into the mines of Moria. "Needless were none of the deeds of Gandalf in life. We do not yet know his full purpose" Galadriel's wisdom and gifts really were the key to the Fellowship succeeding.
About that.. yeah.. Gandalf? yeah... He.... well... He kinda fell down a deep dark pit with a rat pig bull with useless wings made of fire and what appeared to be lava. In short... he's dead.
After watching Thor Ragnarok be like: "And thus Galadriel took the One Ring for herself and sailed not to the West but to Asgard. And therefore she was no more Galadriel Lady of the Light but was Hela Goddess of Death" 😀
As a catholic I feel you. This is when you know you've had to much Jesus 😂 (I also say "and also with you" when I watch Star Wars and they say "may the force be with you" 😂)
I thought he’d do the sign of the cross as well 😂 growing up catholic. I get the same reaction when I hear “may the force be with you” I automatically want to reply with “and also with you” lol
I feel this was one of the most powerful scenes in all three films. The part where boromir breaks is just wonderful direction and acting. Lady Galadriel does such a fantastic job... I myself was tearing up with this scene.. A close favorite is when theoden mourns the death of his son theodred.
And in the books even more. His kindness and valor is detailed best there. It describes how when he tried to convince Frodo to give him the Ring, his face was still filled with so much kindness, and how he sat down and cried after realizing he’d scared Frodo trying to take the Ring from him. His lament by Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli after his death is also heartbreaking.
look 0:38.....This was made so perfectly, that even Haldir...look 0:38 , flows throw the air magnificent ...in a way an elf should! He doen´t look like a human portraying an elf, looks so real and natural! Imagine if this movie was made with the so called Rings of Power serie budget !!!!
why does these scene look more real than the entire hobbit movie? Watching the hobbit felt like a really bad video game cut scene from the early 2000s. It as if the visual studio went backward in terms of CG animation.
Galadriel was born in the years of the trees in Aman before the sun and moon was even created lol Dam I can't even imagine all the things she has seen in her life:D all that memory:( full of war and sorrows
That's what I love most about her character, her life is arguably the greatest tale in all of Middle Earth. She has been there for so many important moments in the timeline, and SURVIVED. Most of her family is long dead by the time LOTR takes place.
She should scare you...considering she's been alive since before the first age, she even lived on Valinor before the Noldor ventured into middle-earth and is between 15 to 30.000 years old...
Grand Master Shaak Ti she just an elf, even if she were gifted with vast amount of power. she is just creation.. the powerful being is maiar and eru illutavar himself.
***** meh, to me valar should be like "the council of angel" it might not be anthromophic (or humane enough) like maiar, but should fit with the earlier christian/abrahamic depiction of angel. incorporeal, huge being with alien shape and geometry to the point you'll think it as eldritch abomination made out of light. but fear not, because it still the servant of big Good.
+Heather S She is usually believed to be stronger than all the others. Tolkien seemed to be stating that the older the being became and had origins in Valinor, the stronger he or she was. One example is her ability to not be "figured out." The confrontation with Sauron is highly likely. Why? Despite never believing she was truly beautiful, Sauron could not read her. He could read Aragorn, Gandalf, Saurman, and all Elves of the time except her. Tolkien was even asked once IF she could take possession of the Ring. In the movies, they simplify it and say "no one else can wield it, period." But Tolkien himself stated that if the person was powerful enough he or she COULD dominate it- though by doing so it would taint the individual and make them tyrannical. When asked if Galadriel could've, Tolkien replied she may have been able to. The Battle For Middleearth games expanded on this theory and actually have her wielding the One Ring.
The Elves of ROP suck. They completely missed the mark. Peter Jackson, thank you for blowing us away with your trilogy. We are now so incredibly grateful.

Props to Elrond for plucking up the courage to ask Galadriel and Celeborn for their daughter’s hand. They are both powerful and intimidating and in their own rights.
“Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-Dum fill your heart, Gimli, son of Gloin. For the world is grown full of peril, and in all lands love is now mingled with grief.”
Peacefully romantic entrances that Celeborn and Galadriel make. Pretty interesting that he knew that there originally were nine to their fellowship, sent out from Rivendell. How would it be like if this had their daughter, Elrond's wife, and Arwen's mother, Celebrian?
Music? Check Casting? Check Writing? Check Camera work? Check Special effects? Check Lighting? Check Costume design? Check Set design? Check Hair and makeup? Check These films are masterpieces
Elves must be an enlightened and creative part of us if we humans can create things as magnificent as this scene. The visuals, the score ... hard to believe it wasn't actually directed by elves haha
"needless were none of the deeds of gandalf in life we do not yet know his full purpose" that right there is a clue that gandalf was not dead....pretty cool
You can grasp and feel pretty good the majesty and history of the caracters. You can notice how Galadriel, born in Valinor, met the Valar and saw the light of the 2 trees, how she has Vanyar and Noldor heritage, and how she is related with the greatest in the history of middle earth. She is the daughter of Finwë, niece of Feänor, cousin of Turgon, Fingon, Maedhros etc... sister of Finrod Felagund and also related to Thingol. All the things she has seen... the death of the threes, the rise of the sun and the moon, all the ages of Arda, the noldor exile through Helcaraxë, the wars agains Morgoth, How Beren and Lúthien stole the silmaril, the fall of Gondolin, Nargothrond and Doriath where she lived with Melian, the destruction of Beleriand and the rise and fall of Númenor and Eregion... just wow. You feel she is different from the other elves and the rest of Characters.
For people who don't know, all though I presume most of u do, Morgoth is the first dark lord and one of the fifteen of the valar, which makes him a lot more powerful than Sauron, he had his fortress way up in the north and he was the master of the dark lord Sauron and gothmog who is the leader of the balrogs(the balrog in lord of the rings is not gothmog)
@G E T R E K T 905 In hindsight, it's hilarious watching that scene watching Legolas's eyes when Gandalf says it's a Balrog and he just straight jets out of there...
Such an amazing scene. Heart wrenching when Lady Galadriel realizes the huge loss the fellowship is feeling knowing Gandalf is gone. Even Boromir breaking down and crying was a powerful moment. Amazing trilogy.
I think Boromir is crying here not because of Gandalf dying but because his heart cannot withstand Galadriel’s telepathic gaze because he knows his heart is guilty.
When I first watched LotRs and saw Galadriel and Celeborn many many years ago, I thought the elves were beautiful. Little that I knew that once the Hobbit came out, Thranduil would give the definition of being an elf to another level. Celeborn looks so weary and with messy hair. LOL
Love that they mentioned Morgoth. Although I never understood it until recently when re-watching the scene after finding out who Morgoth is and then stumbling into this by accident. They should do another prequel, this time set during the first age and before.
79mrecuador Most of the Elves are Maiar Entities that Hail from the Kingdom of Valenor West of Middle Earth they Shape shift into Any form either Men Elf or Animal when they are in Middle Earth
Galadriel was incredibly powerful, the most powerful elf in middle earth, perhaps even the most mighty being present. But Celeborn certainly was no slouch. Aside from Glorfindel, whom even the Nazgul feared with no small measure, and perhaps Elrond, who was allowed to shadow and learn under the dauntless and formidable Gil-Galad there was no finer swordsmen in middle earth then Celeborn of Lorien.

they used christmas lights to reflect in galadriel's eyes to make them look different from anyone else's eyes, because she had seen the light from the two trees of valinor and well, because she is super ancient and her eyes would reflect that. i find that's such a cool idea. you can really see that in her eyes when you know.
I can't unsee it after hearing about it on the appendices. It annoyed me in Return of the King when Galadriel was psychically talking to Elrond and did not have the same glint in her eye. Must have been pick up shots.
Thank you for mentioning this! Such a small detail but once you see it, it changes how you view her.
@@jasonfenton8250 Possibly intentional? That was right before they went into the west. Did yhe book say anything about the light fading for her?
@@jasonfenton8250 Maybe Galadriel’s elven ring could allow her to telepathically communicate with other bearers of the elven-rings. Maybe that’s why she says that Gandalf “has fallen into shadow” because she can no longer sense him, being dead and all (at least until Eru resurrects him)
@@mechadoggy Nenya greatly enhanced her own powers and gave her yet other abilities which we don’t know about. What we do know is that with it, she was able to build purely from scratch an entire realm for her to rule and that’s impressive. I’d imagine her true powers have something to do with the twin trees in Valinor and/or the heavenly Queen Varda (Elbereth) of the Valar who has been described as bearing the light of Eru Illuvatar Himself upon her face.
"Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-dûm fill your heart, Gimli, son of Glóin." ❤😢
Fun fact: Gimli and Galadriel frisked in the undying lands as Galadriel was curoius about the dwarvs and Gimli was curious about the elves.
@@notOEAH i think that kinda defines their characters, gimli is an oddity for his curiosity and empathy across races among dwarves and so is galadriel for elves, theyre kinda both stubborn and arrogant races by nature which is why they clash, and why men being more adaptable and impulsive and willing to live in the moment are the force of change in the world
@@notOEAH frisked?
@@CommunityFan he is been edgy.
Gimli in the books portrays a courtly love to Galadriel , but in the more idealized form , as it wasn't a romantic love nor it had any adultery.
Galadriel, One of the last of the Noldor elves left on Middle Earth. She is considered to be the most powerful elf in Middle earth and one of the oldest. I think 7-10,000 years old. Galadriel is the ring bearer of Nenya, It is said that Lothlorian cannot be destroyed unless Sauron himself comes to visi because galadriel gaurds the forest
Thanks for the knowledge of the lore!
I'm not certain if Cirdan is older or not, though he is the only elf with a beard..
I think he could be but she is higher nobility
Mmogamerfr I think I read somewhere that Cirdan was one of those who awoke at Cuivie'nen (I know the spelling's wrong, that's my way of doing marks above letters)
I think she was the last 100 percent Noldo left - Elrond and his children have Maiarin and Tellerin blood.
Martin Csokas and Cate Blanchet are BY FAR the best elves in all lotr and hobbit movies. Their appearance, the way they speak, Martin's elvish accent and the distant look in his eyes. God they are perfect. Weaving and Bloom are awesome too but Celeborn and Galadriel are just on another level. The ARE elves.
+Flamel Don´t forget Thranduil, he was a great choice too.
What about King Thranduil?
Cate Blanchett is an actress of another dimension. I mean, she can pull off playing an immortal Elf - one really buys it. She's a goddess among mortal men, both in the movies and real life.
Bloom and Weaving seem more earthly whereas these two waver between two worlds.
Thranduil is quite majestic as well.
And they say that Brad and Angelina are the hottest couple ever? Galadriel and Celeborn have the beauty of 1,000 stars
please. "hottest couple" makes it look ridiculous.
But I agree, they are very convincing as elven lords in my opinion, both of them.
Elaini agreed, the suited actor as a lord elf is the one that act as thranduil (if im not mistaken the woodland lord, father of legolas)
I've always considered him the perfect actor for the role. He exudes nobility.
jackskelly18 Exactly! Reality as opposed to plastic “celebrity”. 💫⭐️✨☀️🔥❄️🌙🌑🌕
.... this didnt age well eek
I wish they had used Celeborn more in the lotr and hobbit movies.
Seeing him at Dol Guldur would've been cool.
Or at the white council.
Even in Tolkien's writing he's an underdeveloped character. Galadriel was always ten times more important and powerful than him.
Rhuddlan obviously Galadriel is Noldor, born and raised in Valinor, her father is Finarfin son of Finwe Supreme King of Noldor Elves, Celeborn born and raised in Doriath, her father was Elmo brother of Elwe The King of Doriath and Supreme King of Telleri=Sindar elves
ESPECIALLY in the Hobbit movies when they laid siege to Dol Guldur
When Legolas mentions "of Shadow and Flame"... Galadriel face is just wow... She knows in advance what Legolas is about to say next...the terrible Balrogs thanks to whom she literally lost family members, and Morgoth killed all of her relatives directly or indirectly. All of her brothers, cousins, uncles, friends, her half-uncle and half-cousins were all of them killed by Morgoth actions, either by Morgoth himself, Sauron or the Balrogs and the Orcs. You really can feel her grief.
Great point.
Got the chills when he mentioned morgoth and he says his name with such hatred
It's like Legolas expression in the mines when Gandalf first says that it's a Balrog making all the goblins run off...
C’mon, why u gotta make me look bad? I’ve done some really good stuff u know.
Though the deaths of the sons of feanor are oath related.
grand parents of Arwen right there.
Anja No
Eric Monaco And your wrong. Go research Arwen's family history and you'll indeed see that Galadriel is Arwen's grandmother .
They look so young
angela Because they're elves. They don't really age at all.
And arwen is aragorn's cousin
This was a blessed perfomance of Cate Blanchett, she was able to make Galadriel gorgeous, mysterious and intimidating all at once!
and also how ancient and wise she is too
I imagine meeting Cate Blanchett in person is a very similar experience
Not really. She's a nice person and a very dedicated actress, but she doesn't actually talk slowly or stare into your soul. And she definitely wouldn't freak out if you offered her a ring 🤣🤣
@@chooseyourpoison5105isn't she married?
@@jkbzz Yes she is, to playwright Andrew Upton.
"Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-dum fill your heart, Gimli son of Gloin, for the world has grown full of peril, and in all lands, love is now mingled with grief".
Only now do I realize how much that meant to Gimli, because one of the things about dwarves is that, just like hobbits, they are deeply tied to their homes, their kin, and Galadriel is telling Gimli to have courage, to keep fighting on, for there are people like him who have lost their homes and families to the war. Not only that, it's one of the kindest things an Elf has ever said to him.
I agree, and her dialogue with Gimli in the book is even better. In the book, it’s Haldir that says that line about peril and grief, but Galdriel’s gift and words of farewell to Gimli (in the books) was one of my favorite parts. I definitely recommend all to read it.
Coming back and watching this scene after Rings of Power.....omg this is SO much better. It is like the elves aren't just actors with pointy ears glued on. The way they speak, their presence, even walking in to meet Galadriel and Celeborn was like walking into another world. The scenes had time to breathe, the score was haunting. ALL things completely missing from ROP.
Now you know why fans are hating ROP! They didn't even try
I have to agree. This is beautiful cinema and the RoP completely lacks the beautiful and grace of the world of Tolkien.
@@ryan.1990 I’m enjoying it.
This movie trilogy hit all the right notes in terms of acting, set design, costume, music…AND sticking very close to the source material. This trilogy set the standard for epic fantasy in cinema. One that has not been matched since. But I am glad it exists, all the same.
Is it possible that due to the rings of power given to them by Celebrimbor eventually, theyll become more ethereal? As of now in the RoP, the elves function more as soldiers like Legolas. It feels like a good development part for Galadriel despite it not being lore.
The music is so eiry and surreal in this scene and the movie overall, there will never be a trilogy as good as Lotr
Well at least we got to see the lotr trilogy
If you were Celeborn you'd really have to hold it down to survive... You'd have a wife 1000x more powerful than you that can read your mind and you couldn't even think about looking at another elf or she'd have your balls.
***** Even Gimli, who's a Dwarf was fascinated by her.
Rachel Lukasek and Gimli with a pure heart was given 3 strands of her golden hair while Feanor couldn't get even 1
well, Celeborn is the one who name her as Galadriel and she use it, that shows how much she love and respect him
That's funny but still Celeborn was strong and beautiful too and Elves are monogamous and love someone for life so I don't think he would look another Elf lol
xRPTRxLANDx
Its because she didn't trust Feanor and she knew that he was not true of heart. But she knows Gimli, though tough skinned, is pure of heart....so she gave him more than he asked for or could ever expect to receive from her.
The elves talk so slow. They remind me of my buddies trying to have a conversation stoned out of their minds.
Galadriel probably got her hands on some of that Old Toby from the shire

This movie ages like wine.
this specific scene is mesmerizing, the visual and sound aesthetics is off the charts
It really is 😮
She looks at each member of the fellowship in turn.
- First, Aragorn, from whom she learns the truth about Gandalf.
- Legolas then speaks up and clarifies the details using words like a cave man.
- Galadriel then looks at Gimli and is happy to see the purity of his heart.
- Next up is Boromir. He does not enjoy his telepathy session.
- Merry and Pippin get the briefest of glances.
- She looks at Sam, and she likes what she sees (same as Gimli).
- And then with Frodo being the POV character in this scene we see first hand what she's been doing to all the other characters. Poor Boromir.
Is that what she was doing? I didn't figure that. Because it shows her talking out loud after saying each line that could've been "telepathic".
@@ViNtAgELovv11 I'm not deep into the lore like some people here, it's just the way I see the scene. But I'll just say what I can without elaboration here and explain why I jumped to the conclusion she's using telepathy with everyone.
In lore, she can use telepathy (according to Google), and in the film, she appears to use it here, at least at the very end of this scene with Frodo. They show her eyes apparently making contact with Aragorn before she confidently says of Gandalf "he has fallen into shadow". She and Celeborn seem not to have known this beforehand, because Celeborn states his wish to speak with Gandalf. And then the camera focuses on nearly every one of the characters individually. Boromir is the only one to break down emotionally and avert his eyes, and she does not smile at him at all, almost as if she can see what is in his future. In contrast she smiles broadly at Gimli and Sam.
@@ViNtAgELovv11 indeed she mentally-tests each member of the fellowship in succession, while talking. Showing that on film would likely drag out the scene way too long, so they only hint at it with Frodo at the end.
Honestly I like the way Frodo looks at Galadriel. Everyone seems overcome by her beauty, aside from Aragorn who sees her as the queen she is. The way Frodo looks at her to me says he sees her as a fellow ring bearer, even though he wouldn't know she was one. You can see those knowing looks they give each other throughout their interactions. Here, when she waves him farewell as they leave Lorain, and epically during her drowned queen moment.
Galadriel is also one of very few characters (like Glorfindel in Rivendell) who is a higher spiritual being. As Frodo carries the ring, he gets more sensitive to the other world; it's part of why he can see the true forms of the ring-wraiths and why he is able eventually to see the ring on Galadriel's finger. I like to think that in this scene he is seeing a dimension to her that the others can't.
Nothing could possibly stress out Frodo more than the burden of bearing the One Ring. Meeting Galadriel is a dramatic moment for everyone else and you can see it in their eyes, but Frodo has essentially seen some shit so to me his look is one of "meh, she's hot but whatever."
Celeborn in ROP : Tell me where is me.
HAAHAHAHAHHAHAHHA "FoRRRR I cant see me from afaRRRRRRRR"

That series is an abomination and does not resemble this masterpiece even remotely. How could anyone even believe that?
A Balrog of Morgoth
@@TheDetherion there's still 4 more seasons to go. Let's see what develops from here.
I like how she says "yet hope remains" while looking at Sam
2:02 - "A Balrog of Morgoth"- Celeborn remembers
Probably Galadriel would remember better - I expect she would be closer to Maedhros, FIngon, Turgon, Glorfindel, and would certainly know more of Feanor and that Feanor was defeated by one of them makes them very cool in her eyes.
sasha kononova Celeborn also knows about it too. He has been there since First Age
I do...
Siska Hasmawaty Also it’s most likely that he and the other Doriathrim are at fault for the Balrog in Moria, since they didn’t help in Beleriand.

This scene seems even cooler after having read the Silmarillion and knowing their backstory. Balrog of Morgoth... shudders. Though the elven family trees are impossible to keep straight.
*****
lets just say, these two, especially Galadriel, have seen some crazy shit
***** Galadriel and Celeborn fought against Morgoth (Melkor) the first and greatest dark lord from the first age when many elven kingdoms were on midde earth and Morgoth had armies of Balrogs that were sent to those kingdoms during the battles. Few elves killed Balrogs in battle as Glorfinder from Gondolin that fell fighting a Balrog during the fall of Gondolin, the last elven kingdom of the first age. So when Legolas says: "a Balrog of Morgoth' I am pretty sure dark memories come to Celeborn and Galadriel, they know what Gandalf fought.
***** Morgoth is more then a Dark Lord he is the first evil and darkness. A God. Son of Illuvatar and Sauron was such his vicegerent.
Gandalf and Sauron are from the same Race.But he and the the other Magicians follow the light Sauron the darkness of Melk
or.
Teddybomber87
Morgoth is no god. There is only one God, even in Middle-earth: Eru Iluvatar. Read the Ainulindale, and you'll see that Eru makes it extremely clear that there are no other gods beside Him.

I never noticed before that the elves talked so much slower than everyone else. It makes so much sense since they live so long. How did I never notice that before
The original trilogy truly captured the awe, wonder, and magic of the books. I'm not a ROP hater by any means, but it just doesn't have the sauce. Elves should absolutely be these ethereal, angelic creatures from the perspective of hobbits. In ROP, they're just normal people with pointy ears.
Wisdom is this woman's power. That's how she intimidates everyone in the scene. Pure epic piece of a book and movie making.

After all Melian gave portion of her powers to Thingol to even the distance between the two and that was act out of true love I think. Not to mention, because she beget a child she could no longer be free of the earthly form she had chosen which was an act of self-sacrifice.

He was taken both wokeness and shame.
I love the way that Galadriel defends Gandalf for taking the Fellowship into the mines of Moria. "Needless were none of the deeds of Gandalf in life. We do not yet know his full purpose" Galadriel's wisdom and gifts really were the key to the Fellowship succeeding.

I myself was tearing up with this scene..
A close favorite is when theoden mourns the death of his son theodred.
That last part with Galadriel's eyes freaked me out as a little girl!!!
I definitely love Boromir in the Extended Edition much more.
I agree. He was a flawed human but he was full of love tainted with despair
And in the books even more. His kindness and valor is detailed best there. It describes how when he tried to convince Frodo to give him the Ring, his face was still filled with so much kindness, and how he sat down and cried after realizing he’d scared Frodo trying to take the Ring from him. His lament by Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli after his death is also heartbreaking.
look 0:38.....This was made so perfectly, that even Haldir...look 0:38 , flows throw the air magnificent ...in a way an elf should! He doen´t look like a human portraying an elf, looks so real and natural! Imagine if this movie was made with the so called Rings of Power serie budget !!!!

Grand Master Shaak Ti
basically she is a prophetess of middle earth
+Heather S She is usually believed to be stronger than all the others. Tolkien seemed to be stating that the older the being became and had origins in Valinor, the stronger he or she was.
One example is her ability to not be "figured out." The confrontation with Sauron is highly likely. Why? Despite never believing she was truly beautiful, Sauron could not read her. He could read Aragorn, Gandalf, Saurman, and all Elves of the time except her.
Tolkien was even asked once IF she could take possession of the Ring. In the movies, they simplify it and say "no one else can wield it, period." But Tolkien himself stated that if the person was powerful enough he or she COULD dominate it- though by doing so it would taint the individual and make them tyrannical. When asked if Galadriel could've, Tolkien replied she may have been able to. The Battle For Middleearth games expanded on this theory and actually have her wielding the One Ring.

Props to Elrond for plucking up the courage to ask Galadriel and Celeborn for their daughter’s hand. They are both powerful and intimidating and in their own rights.
“Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-Dum fill your heart, Gimli, son of Gloin. For the world is grown full of peril, and in all lands love is now mingled with grief.”
The extended version is much better!
Galadriel is the best character in all of the movies!
Peacefully romantic entrances that Celeborn and Galadriel make. Pretty interesting that he knew that there originally were nine to their fellowship, sent out from Rivendell. How would it be like if this had their daughter, Elrond's wife, and Arwen's mother, Celebrian?

"needless were none of the deeds of gandalf in life we do not yet know his full purpose" that right there is a clue that gandalf was not dead....pretty cool
Galadriel losing her emotionless face and showing sadness upon learning of Gandalf's death tells how close the two were.
You can grasp and feel pretty good the majesty and history of the caracters. You can notice how Galadriel, born in Valinor, met the Valar and saw the light of the 2 trees, how she has Vanyar and Noldor heritage, and how she is related with the greatest in the history of middle earth. She is the daughter of Finwë, niece of Feänor, cousin of Turgon, Fingon, Maedhros etc... sister of Finrod Felagund and also related to Thingol. All the things she has seen... the death of the threes, the rise of the sun and the moon, all the ages of Arda, the noldor exile through Helcaraxë, the wars agains Morgoth, How Beren and Lúthien stole the silmaril, the fall of Gondolin, Nargothrond and Doriath where she lived with Melian, the destruction of Beleriand and the rise and fall of Númenor and Eregion... just wow. You feel she is different from the other elves and the rest of Characters.
Finwe was her grandfather , not father. Get your facts right
For people who don't know, all though I presume most of u do, Morgoth is the first dark lord and one of the fifteen of the valar, which makes him a lot more powerful than Sauron, he had his fortress way up in the north and he was the master of the dark lord Sauron and gothmog who is the leader of the balrogs(the balrog in lord of the rings is not gothmog)
@G E T R E K T 905 In hindsight, it's hilarious watching that scene watching Legolas's eyes when Gandalf says it's a Balrog and he just straight jets out of there...
“Taaele me where is Gandaaaaalf!!!”
This nailed Galadriel to a tee. Sad the Rings of Power has a problem interpreting the Elves.
Love the way she looks at Sam when she says “yet hope remains while company is true” Sam is the true hero
Such an amazing scene. Heart wrenching when Lady Galadriel realizes the huge loss the fellowship is feeling knowing Gandalf is gone. Even Boromir breaking down and crying was a powerful moment. Amazing trilogy.
I think Boromir is crying here not because of Gandalf dying but because his heart cannot withstand Galadriel’s telepathic gaze because he knows his heart is guilty.
When I first watched LotRs and saw Galadriel and Celeborn many many years ago, I thought the elves were beautiful.
Little that I knew that once the Hobbit came out, Thranduil would give the definition of being an elf to another level.
Celeborn looks so weary and with messy hair. LOL
Hmmm...i still think that Galadriel still in another level.
Love that they mentioned Morgoth. Although I never understood it until recently when re-watching the scene after finding out who Morgoth is and then stumbling into this by accident. They should do another prequel, this time set during the first age and before.
Galadriel is my fav character in this movie. She is so soft spoken❤
Love Celeborn's voice, particularly how "I can no longer see him from afar" is tinged with sadness.
She gives Gimli strands of her hair, she didn’t even give Feanor strands of her hair when he asked for some.
I love merry's expression here, its the face i made when i first saw this scene :)
Elves like angels..
79mrecuador Most of the Elves are Maiar Entities that Hail from the Kingdom of Valenor West of Middle Earth they Shape shift into Any form either Men Elf or Animal when they are in Middle Earth
Galadriel was incredibly powerful, the most powerful elf in middle earth, perhaps even the most mighty being present. But Celeborn certainly was no slouch. Aside from Glorfindel, whom even the Nazgul feared with no small measure, and perhaps Elrond, who was allowed to shadow and learn under the dauntless and formidable Gil-Galad there was no finer swordsmen in middle earth then Celeborn of Lorien.
That’s how the amazon series should be. Not this average fantasy, cgi, identity politics bullshit.
