Episode 40: Rings of Power Nerd Review
Manage episode 348221987 series 3263675
The Good, Bad, and the Idiocy -- another Good ol' fashioned Catholic Nerd-Out about the newest cinematic offering from the Tolkien Universe: Amazon's The Rings of Power. So many things to love. Alas, so many more things to grunt and grumble about. Here are our Top 5 Love & Top 5 Hate of the Rings of Power. Here are some of the many topics we dive into:
[SPOILER ALERT!!]
- When we figured out which character was Sauron
- The ret-conning catastrophe of the Silmarils and mithril, "The Song of the Roots of Hithaeglir," based on Amazon not having copyright to any of The Silmarillion
- The weird Rube-Goldberg machine creation of Mount Doom and Mordor and how pyroclastic flow works or doesn't work ...
- Howard Shore returns! sort of ... the God of War composer, Bear McCreary
- What's next? Charlie Vickers' accidentally lays out the entire plotline of the next 4 ROP seasons in a Vanity Fair interview, plus Pharazon and the rise of Sauron/Satan worship in Numenor (how will they make this anti-Christian?)
- The screenwriters, J. D. Payne and Patrick McKay, and their unfortunate "mystery-box" J. J. Abrams style of writing
- The non-Catholic paganism/animism mutation of the Tolkien mythos
- "One does not merely ..." try to mimic Tolkien's writing; stupid lines abound
