Here at last, in the wastelands of the internet, comes an end of our fellowship in nitpicking the living daylights out of Peter Jacksonās LOTR trilogy. I will not say, ādo not weep,ā because youāll be so happy this is over you wonāt be crying anyway!

Weāre down to the final movie. Can Peter Jackson clean up his act and make a more coherent film? Oddly enough, despite having some of the most egregious changes to the story, this film does fairly well on overallcoherence, but it still has its problems.

Recently the Tolkien fandom erupted in yet another controversy because Corey Olsen (aka the Tolkien Professor) stated in an interview that there is no such thing as ācanonā in Tolkien. Naturally this led to many people calling him a traitor or sell-out, but their criticism missed the mark. Letās define ācanonā and ask ourselves some meaningful questions before we go dog piling, shall we?
Corey Olsenās original interview that started the controversy is here:https://x.com/TheRingsofPower/status/1841825799818645937
His own response video is here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5zluV_XrZg
Steven Gibbās video on Gandalfās names (which is marvelously interesting in its own right) is here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfm4fK6wbVI

It seems a natural enough topic of conversation, yet for some reason Gandalf and Aragorn never mention to Frodo that Bilbo is in Rivendell, despite that being Frodoās destination. I have a feeling itās because both of them would love a good surprise party.

When we think of Theoden as a parallel, we often think of him as the flip side of Denethor, which is perfectly apt. But it turns out his actual story and decisions are much more parallel to the protagonist of the story, which is perhaps what you would least expect.

The loss of innocence is a fairly common theme in literature, and wouldnāt you know, Tolkien handled it too! As with most things, he manages a nuanced take showing both the positives and negatives of innocence and its loss, if you know how to read his tale.

In my previous video on this topic(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWZtLRAm3Hc)I covered several details Peter Jackson got right in The Fellowship of the Ring. Here I add a few more from that film, plus a bunch from The Two Towers.

It was bound to happen I suppose. I showed the trailer for War of the Rohirrim in my previous video so of course I got a copyright claim, but this has gotten out of hand. Letās talk about the broken YouTube copyright system.

The trailer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCUg6Td5fgQ) for the animated āWar of the Rohirrimā film, brought to you by the same creative team behind the New Line Lord of the Rings films, finally dropped. Unfortunately it killed a lot of my anticipation for themovieā¦.

Recently a minor controversy erupted on X/Twitter regarding comments by Ismael Cruz Cordova, who plays Arondir in Amazonās āRings of Powerā series, to the effect that he was trying to be the most Elven character he could be. Of course the critics said he wasnāt, and defenders said he was. But what were Tolkienās elves really like? Turns out Arondir (and practically ever other elf in any visual adaptation) is miles away.

Continuing my nitpicky review of Peter Jacksonās Lord of the Rings Trilogy, I get into the first part of The Two Towers, which involves lots of stupid decisions and...maybe an editing snafu?

In a quest fraught with practical problems, like how to get into Mordor, how to evade capture, and how to make good time, it turns out most of the decisions made have little to do with these practical details.

GRRM is at it again, or rather Twitter is at it again reviving old quotes by the Song of Ice and Fire author, with a really bonkers line about Tolkien and sex.

Someone shared something of a meme on my Discord server (join at the link below!) and it actually raised some interesting points about how movies affect our imaginations, as well as a legitimate question regarding how Saruman hid his activities for so long, so letās takea look.
