The fact that Waldreg managed to convince the Elves to start calling the Southlands "Mordor" in less than a week since its establishment is just proof of his commitment to his job as the Voice of Adar. He belongs in the Wheelie Boy Tier!
Fully convinced Random has spent more time thinking about the plot than both writers combined and its not even close.
The best things about this show: 1. It is very forgettable. 2. The entire internet roasting it alive. 3. God-tier memes & comments.
Calling my shot now, Theo is the Witch King. It is something the creators will think is edgy, cool, and surprising but is actually profoundly stupid so it is right on brand for this show.
I like how elven spies are so good that they can spot Sauron sneaking into Mordor presumably before they even know who Halbrand even is, but they fail to detect an entire orc army marching for Eregion until they've already arrived.
Galadriel doesn't break the show - the show breaks itself to accomodate Galadriel
I love that it takes 5+ hours to "summarise" why this 8 hours of TV is gash. You're a good egg, sir.
Leaked episode from Season 3: "Galadriellleellll, what is that?" "Oh no... he has somehow returned!" cut to shot of Waldreg the White shoving a sword into the latest Rube Goldberg machine, which starts a massive tidal wave that floods Numenorrrrrrr
I have found the answer to the Waldreg - Glug character assasination problem. Basicly Waldreg's and Glug's souls got switched so that Wladreg became loyal to Adar and forgot sauron and Glug became loyal to sauron and killed Adar. IT'S ALL COMING TOGETHER
I have watched zero minutes of Rangs of Powah . I have watched long hours of detailed, savage critique.
This will unironically be more entertaining than the series. Thank you Random for going through this. I tapped out after season one. And folks who think this is good; I really question their taste. Harsh words but seriously? The writing isn’t good. Unless you care only for spectacle.
Small criticism: when the Nazgul/Witch King screams, Frodo's pain is not from the ring's corruption or power but from the Morgul Blade wound. He clutches over his heart, not the ring.
Something that really irks me about Rings of Power is that the writers don't understand at all what working with elves entails, and even less so Middle Earth elves. Even putting aside the insane crunching of the original timeline, we are still dealing with beings who have at the very least hundreds of years of lived experience and for most of them it would be thousands. Sure, you could argue that they learn at a slower pace because of their prolonged life but then we have to deal with the fact that they came from Valinor where they spent a good chunk of their lives under the tutelage of the Valar, literal gods of that universe. In short, we are dealing with beings that by all accounts should be immensely knowledgeable and wise. They rarely ever fuck up, and when they do, the consequences are catastrophic with Feanor leading the charge as one of the most dangerous characters to ever exist in Arda. The elves in RoP are regular humans with pointy ears, they have all the smug but none of the knowledge, it's so sad to witness. Then again, it takes a competent writer to understand that kind of concept and our 2 chuckleheads have very much proved that they aren't.
340 minutes ? That promises to be amazing. Thank you very much for all your hard work in getting this autopsy video ready.

As always RFT, take all the time you need with your next project. I think I speak for the majority when I say we’ll wait patiently for “when it’s ready.”
After watching this show only one thing came to mind: “I feel sort of stretched, like bread scraped over too much butter” - Bilius Bungleton III
I have spent all day watching this video, my phone died, and I charged it so I could continue. I got so much more than nearly 6 hours of enjoyment. Certainly more than spending a like amount of time watching tik toks or shorts. I can only guess at how many hours you put into this video so that I could enjoy your whit and honesty for free. I have never watched the show. I have never seen you before. Yet after a few minutes, I knew I was going to see it through. I am currently running a fever of one hundred and two, so please forgive my appalling sentence structure. Thank you for providing an incredible piece of long form content so that I may watch it and slap my hands together like a seal when you said something I recognized. I am adding you to my very short list of subscribed channels and will proceed to binge watch everything you have ever made. Happy Friday.
Kind of forgot that this show existed.
