And in those 3,000 years nobody has ever invented electricity? Hard to believe. Or is there an in-universe explanation that higher technology doesn't work on the planet?
Middle-Earth is in a state of constant decline, not development. Magic is slowly leaving it, and the only places that are reminiscent of the previous glory are elven enclaves protected by the power of the Three.
Numenor had steam engines and shit, but they got wrecked. Saruman made plenty of industrial inventions including gunpowder. But in general elves have no interest in developing technology past a certain point, while other races are not as capable and their progress is slow and constantly reset by wars and so on.
honestly I can't remember, but somewhere Tolkien described them as having metal ships that didn't need to use sails among other technical marvels.
>Our ships go now without the wind, and many are made of metal that sheareth hidden rocks, and they sink not in calm or storm; but they are no longer fair to look upon. Our towers grow ever stronger and climb ever higher, but beauty they leave behind upon earth…our shields are impenetrable, our swords cannot be withstood, our darts are like thunder and pass over leagues unerring
History of Middle Earth, it's just one idea Tolkien toyed with over Numenorean tech, not everybody is a fan of a kind of steam punk-esque vision of Numenor though
>not everybody is a fan of a kind of steam punk-esque vision of Numenor though
i definitely am not. Numenor (at least in the beginning) were elf-larpers, if anyone should be steampunk, it's the dwarves

Yeah I wasn't a fan either and I think Tolkien changed his mind on this idea anyway, he toyed with many things
why is she wearing spandex leggings with scale patterning? is that supposed to imitate some kind of layered scale armor? where do they make the artificial stretchy fibers in middle earth?
>where do they make the artificial stretchy fibers in middle earth?
stupid chud. obviously she went on the palantirnet and ordered a pair from zazzle.

It's not bad, it's actually one of the more interesting directions to take her character that actually has some justification from the books.
Also hot woman in armour, what's not to like
Probably the main character for the storyline set in the southlands yeah
There are five other realms/regions that will have their own MCs too

So they're just Bongs before the Romans arrived to civilize them?
The Thingol murder and the following autistic race war happened in the First Age, so no. I suppose it would be brought up as a reason of distrust between them
Depends on the elves. The Sindar (and a majority of the Nandor) never forgave the dwarves for the slaying of Thingol and the sacking of Doriath. The Noldor though were on slightly better terms. The more extraordinary example of friendship was between Narvi and Celebrimbor. Galadriel also had good opinions of them while Celeborn did like them at all.
The Thingol murder and the following autistic race war happened in the First Age, so no. I suppose it would be brought up as a reason of distrust between them
Celebrimbor had very good relations with the dwarves in Moria and he and Durin are at the table.
>I see no PoC
They want to make it feel like it could possibly exist in the same world as the movies, not annoy the more moderate book fans too much (they know they never had a chance with the full on autists) whilst still having enough representationarino so they don't get '''cancelled''' by twitter trannies
So there will be non-whites, but mostly in the lands where they existed aside from an occasional immigrant.
>Tolkien never said that Hobbits were even around in the 2nd Age. >Normal people would think that means Hobbits were not around in the 2nd Age >Hollywood thinks that means, just because Tolkien said they were not around, doesn't mean they were not around
Alternatively, a lack of records of hobbits from earlier Ages could simply reflect how hobbits tend to keep to themselves, and the other races tend to dismiss and call them halflings and ignore them.
There are men in LotR who still seem to have no idea what a halfling is
It seems to me that Tolkien purposely omitted hobbits from the second age to emphasize how truly impressive the actions of the hobbits in LOTR we're. It's also weird to have them around for so long because in LOTR the rohhiram and treebears aren't even aware of them.
hobbits were in the second age and they were mostly merchants and farmers, after the collapse of Arnor trade stopped and they reverted back to being solitary farmers
Nevermind, it's from Unfinished Tales apparently. Bridge of Tharbad is where the Hobbits lived which by the time of the books was ruins

So basically as Tolkein would have had it, Hobbits were doing just fine for themselves, much better than they were by the time of the original story, during the late second age and almost the entirety of the third age slowly sliding into obscurity as Arnor fell and feuded and no longer protected them. Eventually reverting back to almost complete myth by the time of the war of the ring
They are in Rhovanion and they shouldn't make it anywhere near the Shire anyway, which wasn't established until the 3rd age. Maybe they will have them settle near the Anduin though.
WHERE ARE THE Black folk HOBBITS DURING THE THIRD AGE, HUH?
they get bred out from having kids with the white families and that's how the harfoots had darker skin in the 3rd age. because Sams great grandfather x30 was a Black
This is so wrong lol. I love how hubristic modern society has become. Showrunners are mightier than the writers of old. They think "It's for everyone :))".
you know, this makes galadriel's speech describing what would happen if she controlled the one ring feel different. loooots of emphasis on how she would be beautiful, light, and fair instead of "dark". do you think the series finale of the rings of power will be galadriel using the ring to enact the final ̶s̶o̶l̶u̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ battle?
It's very aulic, like something out of a classical greco-roman arcadian myth. I think it really suit the Second Age, more than the gritty realism of Jackson that more suited the late Third Age, the last straw of the mythical age
I am no Amazon shill. I'm 90% sure it will be shit. But they nailed the atmosphere at least. Gritty Realism like in LOTR wouldnt had been suited an era where OP demigods and superhumans were a rather still common sight (while not being as common as in the First Era ofc), and civilizations were still powerfull and numerous
>Elves are both warrior and mage, especially Noldors
this, Galadriel's brother led armies vs Morgoth then had a magical singing contest against Sauron. The Noldor from the noble houses were completely OP, including the females
No. Tolkien likened her to an amazon in her youth (as expected of any female elf forced to interact with war), but the show is likely to disrespect even that assumption by making her an action hero.
As for being a mage, she was taught by Melian, who was a greater 'angelic spirit' than Gandalf, but she is herself not of the same stock. Her magic has to deal with protection and indirectness. Had Sauron actually confronted her, she would fall. Her encounter with Sauron in the Hobbit wasn't very accurate. Her destroying Dol Goldur may also be interpreted as her army doing the work, not via magic. Her actual magical capacity is open to interpretation.
Gandalf's magical capacity meanwhile was vastly downplayed in the movies.
>Elves are both warrior and mage, especially Noldors
this, Galadriel's brother led armies vs Morgoth then had a magical singing contest against Sauron. The Noldor from the noble houses were completely OP, including the females
Would had been fine having her teenager rebellion phase in the First Era, given all the Noldors were hot heated troublemakers back in the time
But by the Second Era, she understood her cousin's autism and became much more mature and majestic, akin to her Vanyar maternal relatives
No one has any idea about her personality at the time. The only time it's described is in the First Era, where she has a hidden lust for power, though otherwise is basically saintly. The Galadriel in LOTR is, in elvish scale, five minutes until retirement.

Shire was not a thing in the second age. Nice idea tbh senpai, but not canon.

Elves are both warrior and mage, especially Noldors.
>Elves are both warrior and mage, especially Noldors
this, Galadriel's brother led armies vs Morgoth then had a magical singing contest against Sauron. The Noldor from the noble houses were completely OP, including the females
She's even more Op considering her mother was a Vanyar, the strongest and most divine breed of eldars
No. Tolkien likened her to an amazon in her youth (as expected of any female elf forced to interact with war), but the show is likely to disrespect even that assumption by making her an action hero.
As for being a mage, she was taught by Melian, who was a greater 'angelic spirit' than Gandalf, but she is herself not of the same stock. Her magic has to deal with protection and indirectness.

Gandalf's magical capacity meanwhile was vastly downplayed in the movies.
So she'll shit out magic missiles right
If you want to liken it to DnD then she would have more cleric type abilities, protection against evil, healing, cleansing, that kind of thing
If she does it will be absolutely fricking awful. Like that time they threw in fireballs in Game of Thrones - there was no such thing in the books.
Would had been fine having her teenager rebellion phase in the First Era, given all the Noldors were hot heated troublemakers back in the time
But by the Second Era, she understood her cousin's autism and became much more mature and majestic, akin to her Vanyar maternal relatives
No one has any idea about her personality at the time. The only time it's described is in the First Era, where she has a hidden lust for power, though otherwise is basically saintly. The Galadriel in LOTR is, in elvish scale, five minutes until retirement.

Can we hope for this trend in our reality?
The Harfoots never entered the Shire.
The hobbits weren't all white. Tolkien never goes into their race, you just know they are like humans so there is a mix.
It would be insane to think all hobbits are the same skin color. Literally insane.
Theres a game called Gothic Battlefleet Armada and the best way to fight is to spin your ships around so the broadside goes off on cooldown.
Why do they waste money on trash like this? They should know by now it won't make it to a second season.
