Rings of Power - shows how stupid people are?[spoilers]

Was it supposed to be a shocking reveal that the southlands was mordor?

is it going to be a shocking reveal about who gandalf and sauron are too?

is this just how stupid people are now they didnt pretty much understand this from the start when they were introduced? I guess Sauron could be SLIGHTLY harder to get right off the bat but even them, come the fuk on with how low IQ this writing has been it should have been obvious.

Still like the show for entertainment but its like watching the original, you already read the books so it was just seeing the story played out beautifully.

But then when they did the whole "the southlands" changed to "Mordor" it made me wonder if people dont know these things as soon as they appeared in the show?

Recently rewatched the LOTR trilogy. Had almost forgotten how incredible those movies are. Will probably never watch this new show as it's not possible it'll live up.

Yeah I think its pretty obvious who they are.

Starting to enjoy the show more, wasn't really in to it the first few episodes. The story around Galadriel and the Numenoreans is pretty good. The hobbit people and Elrond are still pretty boring tbh, though Durin is a pretty cool dude. If the Stranger guy (Gandalf) wasn't with the hobbit people I'd just fast-forward through their scenes since they do nothing.

these were likely the first hobbits before the LotR and "the hobbit" hobbits, they were a pretty new race i mean Smeagul was taller and looked different than LotR hobbits (this was ACTUALLY written in the books and intended in both the book sand the movies, so its part of the official lore)

The show is FAR less Woke than people think it is, honestly I dont notice anything woke about it past the first episode, its actually just pretty much VERY high budget film making and story line decently consistent

They are just stupid made up characters with no purpose. They could just be deleted from the story and it wouldn't matter. Gandalf could have just crash landed in the Southlands.

You can't have this universe without Hobbits. They will have purpose later.

RoPe is just more evidence that elves ruin everything they touch.

I haven't watched in 3 weeks but I still give angry Joe and critical drinker a view when they roast the latest episode.

Amazing its a 100 percent consensus on all the youtube guys I watch that RoP is trash and House of the Dragon is excellent.

that really is interesting to me. House of Dragons seems overly woke and it jumps all over the place and its kind of just a frustrating show that never delivers when you want it and the best characters dont do chit and so much child sex stuff its borderline disturbing, like literally 10x as many child sex scenes as adult, wtf.....

Then RoP is mostly 95% un woke just normal storytelling

I've been saying this for a while, I 100% expect Sauron to be a transexual. It goes entirely with the overall theme of Rings of Power, zero chance Sauron isn't a tranny.

House of Dragons is GOAT, legitimately look forward to Sundays to watch the new episodes. I have been keeping up with Rings of Power too, but I might stop soon, its just painful and I know it won't get any better

How is HoD overly woke? Everything that deviates from what ppl consider “normal” is woke.

the whole show is about empowering women and piidophilia and degeneracy in the libcuck society, even the politics in the show mirror liberal politics to a "t"

i mean really is it that difficult for you to see it?

Empowering queens and princesses? Royal families have been marrying each other for thousands of years, keep the wealth in the family. Degens have been around since the beginning of time. I’m not sure what kind of show you wanted them to put out that wouldn’t have some inkling of liberal politics/any politics of the past 5,000 years.

They clearly only care about making good looking visuals

The writing on the show is really bad

It's like they just went with the first draft of someone who never read the books and had only seen the Peter Jackson movies for reference

So many plot holes and character inconsistencies that I don't know how anyone signed off on these scripts

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

nothing about this show mirror's any midevil societies monarchy.

GTFO here with this nonsense, seriously.

Herp Derp there were queens in royal families and house of dragons has queens so its the same thing theres nothing else that could possibly be considered "woke" about the behaviors in the show

queen is queen princess is princess same thing me dumb dumb

honestly i dont even know how to dumb myself down enough to give you any other response. I cant think as stupid as you think with this reseponse unless you are just trolling being this fukking stupid making this kind of logical comparison.\


Lastly, no one is watching this for it to be based on history, the initial appeal of GoT was hot ass teddies in every scene, people brutally killing eachother, and alpha as phuck mountainous men

now we have petty women playing petty games with eachother, women are running every single part of Westeros, men are servants to women, everything is about "race" but they make it about "family" but its all an allusion to racial inequalities and societal liberalism in modern Western society if you have HALF a brain and see the intentful comparisons being made by the writers.

You do realize this show is being written by hollywood jews and not George R. R martin at this point right?

Stopped watching HoD at episode 7. Just way too boring and every episode is a repeat of the other. Actor/Actress changes didn't help either. Brb this family wants the throne, brb this fam is manipulating me to get their offspring to marry into royalty, brb this member of the fam banged their sister, brb every scene is 92 seconds long in slow motion for dramatic effect.

Still watching Oh Muh Lawd Dem Rangz, I kind of like it not going to lie. So far so good.

Hobbits did not exist in the 2nd age so it wasn’t that you can’t have this universe without hobbits but that you need hobbits to draw in low IQ viewers with a natural talent at turning off their brains when watching tv.

The harfoots are vicious evil little kunts who should never have been made up and added in the show

Forgive English I am Russia.

You're braindead if you think that is Gandalf. Gandalf is an Istari. He doesn't come to Middle Earth for another thousand years or so.

but we got to possibly see a Valar or Maiar or both because of them. Honestly been some pretty cool chit in this. We got to see the creation of mordor, will get to see the rebirth of Sauron im sure, hopefully how he built up mordor with shelob and the towers there. They could have some pretty cool chit in store for us with how much they have shown in this one, they have shown some stuff many fans have wanted to see put into the films forever.

You're literally an idiot. All of the intrigue is based on the war of the roses. And dance of the dragons was most certainly written by g.r.r.m.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone familiar with both George R.R. Martin’s stories and Medieval English history that the wars of Westeros draw heavily from the battles of Britain for inspiration. These parallels are usually obvious: Aegon’s Conquest is the Norman Invasion, the Dance with Dragons is the Anarchy, Robert’s Rebellion is the Wars of the Roses, and the War of the Five Kings is… well, the Wars of the Roses.
