If There Can Be Diversity Among Elves And Dwarves, Does That Mean We Can Have Diversity In Other Species.

If there can be diversity among elves and dwarves, does that mean we can have diversity in other species. Like a white ent? Made like a birch tree? I believe we neeeeeeeed the first white ent in movies, ever! They are greatly underrepresented. 😁

I feel like Dana probably owns the wolf t-shirt Hunter makes and just decided to put it in the show because she loves it so much. It looks like one of those T-shirts you bought when you were younger, 3 sizes too big so that you would never grow out of it and its now really worn and faded, but you still loves it, its still your favorite and you now uses it to sleep in because you don't want to trow it away, ever.

She probably walk around at home chilling with her cool wolf t-shirt and her watermelon pants.

Great battle of tiny village

why does the rings of power feel like they have just been building up to this "battle" and nothing happened. Why did Galadriel even recruit the numenorians? I mean, they didn't even make a difference. Apparently the few villagers managed to hold back the orcs and fight them off totally fine. Why where the numenorians even there? they knew where they where going since the calculated how long it would take them to arrive but no one is suppose to know what's going on in the Southlands. All the elves who were there died and Arondir didn't send a messege or anything. Galadriel only have a hunch that Sauron maybe is there. Not any conformation, just a really old piece of paper with instruction she don't even know if Sauron is following. And she doesn't know of any army, just suspecting he is bulding up his forces. And since Galadriel didn't know of these orcs attacking people, what was the numenorian army even suppose to fight? Galadriel didn't even know Adar existed. she could have seen it in the palatir but they only used it to show the flood vision, nothing more. Also shouldn't someone sent a message to the elves who where managing the area and have them meet up with Galadriel and the numenorian army and then have her lead their forces insted of the numenorians? Why does it feel like Galadriel rekruited the numenorians just to free a small village she didn't even know existed or needed help. Why is this such a great victory? they just saved a few people and an already destroyed village. most of the orcs were also already dead or gone.

And I guess the biggest question I currently have is, why is there so few poeple in this world? the village; maybe 30 peolpe total and half left, and they all seem to randomly appear or disappear. Numenorians; lookls like maybe 100 horses, but the army seems to disappear later and maybe 30 people going around the village and that is generous. it's like only the main characters exist and others just show up to deliver some lines and then disappear again. And don't get me started on the orcs; the Great army of what? 50 orcs or something. What great battle they all fought. It was good that the numenorians all trained to fight on foot since it's not like they where all fighting on horseback or something. I mean, It sure was worth going trough all the trouble to get the numenorian army there, right?

I really loved the opening scene in LOTR-fotr, when "Galadriel" was the commander of Gil-Galad's army and fought against Sauron. Epic battle.

Also the scene when we first met "Elrond" in Lothlòrien. Unforgettable. When everyone were amazed by his ethereal aura, his (short) flowing blond hair and his beautiful white clothing.......Oh wait.

So, does anyone know why Sauron marked Finrod?? Does Sauron normally go around branding people?

I mean, if it was an eye; then ok. It is Saurons mark, it's been his mark the entire time. It's his signature. That is why it's in his castle/forge and on the sword he probably made. He marked Finrod to say it was he who killed him. This makes sense.

But now it's a map. A map of Mordor. But Mordor does not exist yet. If it was left as a clue in the castle so that poeple who came there later would know where too meet up, like a secret messege only some would understand, then that's also ok. Then the mark on the sword would just mean "made in Mordor" or something similar. But then it doesn't make sense why Finrod was marked. IF this mark is directions, then wouldn't it be a bad idea to send it to your enemies? like "hey, we moved, this is the adress for the new secret evil headquarter, see you there.."

Did Sauron just settle in the Southlands just bacause it matched up with his mark? Was it the plan all along?? I don't understand the writers of this show.

I don't know when Finrod died, but if it was before the plan to settle in the Southlands was made, then the mark is older than the plan. So the idea of it being directions dont make sense either.

I found this scene really weird and forced. If she knew Elros and apparently is Elrond's best friend, shouldn't she be nicer to their descendants. Also if she had mentioned it earlier, then maybe she would have had an easier time in Nùmenor. But what bother me the most about this scene is this painting. It looks like someone painted everything else except for Elronds head, and then someone different came in later and did his head in a completely different style. His head looks so realistic compared to the rest of the painting. Like someone photo-shopped his head on an old picture and used a filter or something.

Also aren't they suppose to be identical twins. I can't find anything similar about them. Their eyes, their headshape, their nose, their eyebrows, even their ears are different. I mean Elros looks more like Thorin's long lost twin. Maybe if you squint really hard, but something is just really weird about this painting.

The only great thing about this painting is that the elves have long hair, :)
