At least they gave her a long instead of a dyke cut, be happy
Galadriel looks fine, good even
The other elves, not so much
Posted the shit res pic for some reason
The saturation effect they apply to all the sets, it just looks like the directors never went outside in their lives.
I think there is intention to make it look more like high fantasy if that's what you are getting at
Yes, that’s the intention.
But it’s poorly done, uncanny.
It more makes me think the director has never been outside a city ever so can’t appreciate the power of the natural world without applying a saturation effect, than it does make me feel that this land is mystical amazing super nature.
>the director has never been outside a city ever
Everything shown so far is from the opening JA Bayona episodes, similar directing style to Guillermo del Toro (they are actually good friends)
Might explain things
Me and my Welsh gf
Imagine getting bullied by her and her sister, haha
Movie babbies are going to get buck broken, that's for sure
Tolkien was very conflicted on the orcs, and said there might be women. It isn't clear on anything.
And orcs have generations the war captain orc in the hobbits father was involved in a feud with the dwarves. Its just the Uruk-Hai that are born from pits. Movie gay
>Tolkien said there *might* be women
No where in the book is it stated that uruk hai came from mud. They were bred. Human women raped by orcs
Saruman should have ordered his orcs to rape the Ents.
Now that would have been a BBEG army.
No because the camels back is already broken and it's now suffocating under a mountain of hay and doesn't even care.
Larry Fink has infinite money. As long as he's handing out SJW good-boy checks to companies to produce propaganda and corrupt well-loved classics, this practive is never gonna stop.
When will people realize it's not about money? Larry Fink has INFINITE MONEY.
This. They print money and hand it to BlackRock because our government is incapable of doing the bailouts themselves, so they claim. This gives Larry Fink the responsibility AND authority that our elected officials are supposed to have.
For those that don't understand this post, the Federal Reserve basically hands Blackrock no-bid contracts and pays them billions, and they use this money to buy up all the housing in the country to turn everyone into a renter class. Aka neo-serfs.

>Her mother-name was Nerwen ("man-maiden") as she was strong of body, mind, and will, a match for both the loremasters and the athletes of the Eldar in the days of their youth.
>After the Downfall of Melkor Galadriel did not go West and leave Middle-earth (probably due to her pride, for she had been one of those eager to adventure there)
>She perceived from the beginning that Middle-earth could not be saved from "the residue of evil" that Morgoth had left behind him save by a union of all the peoples who were in their way and in their measure opposed to him. She looked upon the Dwarves also with the eye of a commander, seeing in them the finest warriors to pit against the Orcs.
ROP's Galadriel is pure Tolkien
deal with it chuds
You know, I do enjoy a good stomping scene when a god is awoken.
They’re not going to deliver that though tsk tsk.
Please quote me more than one time she actually fought someone or thing besides feanor at the kinslaying
Quote me the part that describes what Glorfindel was doing during the battle of the last alliance
You know, one of the greatest warriors to ever exist who was sent to middle earth specifically to combat Sauron. Surely Tolkien described him fighting in the 2nd age wars, right?
He died fighting a Balrog in the fall of gondolin you dipshit
That was 1st age, then he was given a new body and sent to middle earth by the Valar once Sauron revealed himself.
Tolkien literally wrote more about his activities in the Angmar War than anything in the 2nd age
Almost certainly not.
If it was that bad, it would need to be known as a fact. Not supposition, even if educated supposition.
depends on how lost the current generation is.
Her face disgusts me.
Take the rang out yo bussy playa
I think you mean the straw that breaks the buck's back.
Newhobbits can't triforce

Didn't Gimbli say that dwarfs are indistinguishable from male dwarfs, implying that they have beards?
He was evasive, yes, but a close reading of the Silmarillion never validates his claim.
He just did not want to talk about dwarven women.
Her fingers are so fat wtf
Perfect for a greedy dwarf who likes her chicken wings dipped in gold dust tbh.
Something tells me they’re not gonna be so based about her character tho
i'll watch(pirate) for she
Same
Only correct answer, maybe some based anon could make a Gala supercut once the season ends
I’ve rationalised it to myself already but every time I look at that picture afresh my first thought is “oooh ouch all that flyaway hair is going to tangle in that chainmail and yank yank YANK”.
Can’t help it, it looks wrong.
When the local government allows monopolies, yes, there are anticompetitive issues that arise.
But frick it, they managed to break Microsoft up, bezosbucks is no more special.
Broken bot
Clearly not an issue, i mean it's not even happening irl. If it was they would have the actress tie her hair up like in the OPs image.
Mithril being clothlike and the IRL material being clothlike, yes, it’s possible to rationalise.
But.
Still.
It looks wrong, wrong like a hangnail.
It's hat hair, it's not how she will have it most of the time when in armour
Hopefully they’ve listened to the derision and reshot that scene with actual body motion, why else drop the trailer so far out but for the opportunity for reshoots.
Any intern watching 20 seconds of YouTube climbing dynos could have told them a body doesn’t just stop and stick after a big dynamic leap.
>FACE/OFF 2
HOLD ON NO WAY
pirating this is cringe
you shouldn't even watch it
you fricking zoomer homosexuals are too far gone though
How else are you going to have an in view on injokes about how bad it is?
I’m not going to watch, I’m going to watch others watching and get my keks there.
But suspect I’m missing out on some kino drinking games based around ‘every time something moronic happens, drink’.
just going to be normalized from that point
you joke about it, next minute you're ironically watching it, next minute you're arguing its not actually that bad
I'm sick of it. I'm sick of white people forfeiting their culture so israelites can make a few bucks
im sick of white people being brainwashed into sucking off black people to be "woke"
im sick of the song and dance homosexuals to do justify it all
I will never forfeit. do you understand that? I will never give in to these people
It hinges on sufficient information.
And on writing quality.
Black people in themselves are not a detriment to the show, there are ways to include them that don’t break the universe, that are believable.
I’m not prepared yet to call it one way only for Bezos to go “gotcha” and it was actually the other way.
96% it’s looking that way but I’d not give them the satisfaction of getting to say ‘told you so’.
Sympathise with your having been burned 30 times over so unprepared to risk it ever again, but I’ll not join you.
Generals have to have an overview, after all.
if you're arguing about the show you've already lost
do you think they care about the shows quality? their first priority is to put a black person is, their next priority is to make it work
nothing you say even matters. LOTR is a pure anglo fantasy story. it will never change from that. Amazon are not making LOTR, they're using money to make a pozzed fanfiction novel with black people. thats it
Did you miss the bit where I said it’d make a good drinking game?
Like how the matrix is a good drinking game, every time Neo gets a wooden expression, drink!
Thing that has my suspicion up, is the timing of the releases. Dropped Chicken McWings Yass Queen early, ride the notoriety wave, puncture it in the last minute etc. etcetera.
Amazon may not know how to do a good show but I’d not underestimate their ability to run a superlative marketing campaign.
Not arguing about the show, but about Bezos ability to red rag a bull.
And if he’s successful with that, even a mediocre show might just get a pass with normies.
>im sick of the song and dance homosexuals to do justify it all
you dont have to make shit up about drinking games
as if you can't make a million other shows drinking games
you're just the same as they are. there is no grey area my friend. you are the enemy
>you are the enemy
Tsk what a pathetic enemy you would be.
Pass.
I’ve more interesting - challenging - enemies to battle, but thanks for the offer.
>Don't expect the same Galadriel
Good, LOTR Galadriel is a dull OAP
Unfinished Tales Galadriel is based like described in this pic
No, but people are getting tired of the bullshit, D, thanks
They ordered 5 seasons already.
go woke go broke is bullshit that doesnt work when you have almost infinite money
Why are elves such c**ts?
nobody will watch it except bots
>Ciri
>Fat
>Rapist elf
This is my takehome from the pic alone.
Elrond there might not be too bad, elves are supposed to be inhuman; uncanny to the eye.
And that mfricker is definitely uncanny.
Not uncannily beautiful but even so.
Weaving wasn't exactly the epitome of male beauty either, I think the new guy looks fine in all honesty
Yeah, but there’s something more irritating about boys whose balls haven’t dropped yet.
Weaving just was. And he had the theatrical chops to carry it.
This young Elrond, well, haven’t seen a single full scene from him yet so would be a fool to declare certitude.
But I have notable doubts, he needs to clear the first disbelief barrier.
>the crimson chin with a pompadour hair cut
It looks SO out of step with the established aesthetics of LotR and bears zero resemblance to the Elrond we have come to know. Its just bizarre casting, but I guess he was in GoT so they have to hire all these meme actors from GoT for some reason now.
I hate this decision to make the Elves look so homely and modern, Galadriel and Gil Galad are the only decent looking ones so far.
Long hair Jackson vision was never cannon.
I know we’re supposed to be on the visual medium board but this story, lore, informs. It isn’t shaped by.
So yes, he looks like a zoomer but in fairness he is one by elf standards, he’s a newborn in this age. Unlike Galadriel with millenia of life already under their belt.
Zoomer Elrond could work, not a hero, but as his balls drop he grows into the role.
Further, in Elven adulthood he becomes wise because he knows just how stupid he personally was in youth.
Even Galadriel is still relatively young at the start of the 2nd age. Equivalent to a 26 year old, in human equivalent terms, if you accept Tolkiens autistic ideas about elvish aging.
Elrond would indeed be zoomer tier
I see ugly nigress.
I don't watch.
Nah. You're living in a hate-bubble on the internet. Most people don't give a frick about black hobbits
Most people don’t give a frick about any given show either.
Fricking your biggest advocates in the ass then asking them to shill for you? Doesn’t matter if your tagline is “I spent a billion dollars on this”, if it’s shit it’s shit.
To be clear though black hobbits is only red flag #26, they’re not the thing that’s going to break the show. It’s the combination of 50 red flags actualising.
Hail hortler.
You when you take a shower.
that swastika
kek
Covid taught them that we'll stay compliant no matter how bad things get.
Yes. That is the message that television writers took from covid
A bold new direction for derailment.
Posit further, friend.
Seriously though, was it so hard not to cast Black folk?
Are they this afraid that if you don't, no one will care android people will watch it regardless and there will be tangible proof that Black person presence has no actual benefits?
>On the other hand the act of procreation, being of a will and desire shared and indeed controlled by the fëa, was achieved at the speed of other conscious and willful acts of delight or of making. It was one of the acts of chief delight, in process and in memory, in an Elvish life, but its intensity alone provided its importance, not its time or length: it could not have been endured for a great length of time, without disastrous “expense”.
>But the act of procreation not being one of growth until the union of the seed and being under full control of the will does not take long -- though it is longer and of more intense delight in Elves than in Men: too intense to be long endured.
-The Nature of Middle Earth
Will Amazon show elf sex?
>it could not have been endured for a great length of time, without disastrous “expense”.
Hot
kind of verging on GRRM tier though
Hopefully they show Celebrian being conceived, Morfydd had an aggressive sex scene in St Maud so I know she can do it.
Unfortunately I don't think the writers will be based enough, but we can hope
>black elves
>white orcs
OH NONONONO
>black elves
There might actually only be the one
one too many
Well sure, but my point was that out of the cast there is not anybody else left who could be playing anymore non-white elves.
Makes me think his character is an anomaly
Three black female actors with unconfirmed roles. Lots of scope for we wuzzing. Not to mention all the npc extras.
The females are all known, they are playing either regular humans, Numenoreans or harfoots
The male in the top left is playing some Numenorean soldier and the rest of the non whites have been announced already.
Yes extras are a possibility but to give him zero other elves of his likeness to interact with is a bit sus.
black elves and dwarves won't ruin the show but white feminism will
It will get charges of feminism and girlbossism anyway, regardless of how closely (or not) they stick to Tolkien's intentions
Having both Galadriel (creator/ruler of Eregion) and Tar-Miriel (Queen of Numenor) in the show has solidified that
What is the camel's back in your metaphor?
I mean, casting obese people will surely break something at some point.
It's not about money, it's about demoralization, propaganda, and the spreading of neurosis.
Don't watch it.
If you can't resist, pirate it, share it, and keep a grip on your emotions while you do. They do this to frick with your brain and they got real in-depth research on the subject of fricking with brains.
No. Mainstream audience is too braindead. Also, it will probably have ONE redeeming aspect everyone will gather around very much like pic related.
>it will probably have ONE redeeming aspect everyone will gather around very much like pic related
This, plus it will have people who just watch it because they think Galadriel is hot or they like Pharazon being a massive chud. Like GoT, people sat though the shitty storylines just because they liked 1 or 2 other characters
