Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power now features Tom Bombadil in season 2 on Amazon Prime Video. From Hobbits, Harfoots, elves and dwarves in season 1, named wizards were very much absent from the first series. Rings of Power seek to solve this by adding in a character from the Lord of the Rings books that has not been included in the movies or animations previously. But has Amazon done Tom Bombadil justice in Rings of Power? Is rings of power worth watching?

The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power news has shown Tom Bombadil is going to be in season 2 with a west country accent. Have you ever wanted Tom Bombadil to sing about his combine harvester in an accent that no American will be able to understand? Well now you can! Rings of Power is going to be predictable in quality, but I never saw this coming. This will be a show where the entertainment has to be found and created by the audience itself. Tom Bombadil's accent is bound to be as funny as the harfoots were in the first series. Can you imagine his combine harvester accent combined with their evil roaming across the countryside? I think it'd oging to be gold. But what do you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

@@christophersmith8316 ‘And now he is withdrawn into a little land, within bounds that he has set, though none can see them, waiting perhaps for a change of days, and he will not step beyond them.’ I would say that he wandered farther afield in the early days when the world was young. That said, I definitely agree that Rhûn would be far outside his bounds in the late Second Age. At some point he came in contact with the Northmen of Rhovanion who gave him the name Orald. He may have gone as far east as the Gardens of the Entwives, but there's no evidence. Elrond certainly came across him in roughly the same region the Hobbits met him, probably in the early SA (I'd say before Aldarion started his deforestation of Vinyalonde).

The only way to answer this mockery of Tom Bombadil is to simply sing "Get out, you old Wight! Vanish in the sunlight! Shrivel like the cold mist, like the winds go wailing, Out into the barren lands far beyond the mountains! Come never here again! Leave your barrow empty! Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till the world is mended." But then again Amazon is significantly worse than any Barrow Wight.

Tom Bombadil does not give two shits about anything that is happening in the world outside of his own little forest. He would not care about any shadow that looms over the land or peoples that are traveling across it. He was there long before any of them and would remain long after all of them are gone. The ring may not have any effect on him, but even the company disregarded using him as it's safe keeper because he would most likely grow bored with it and throw it away. I fail to see how he could serve any purpose in this series.

Yes. Tom had only one master, himself, and although he might respond the entreaties of all free people he wouldn't see the need himself. He was, in some sense, a personification of the world they lived in, and even if Sauron could not overthrow him in his domain, he would have no interest in overthrowing Sauron, and could be safely ignored.

Not to mention that the one place that would be closest to 'edenic garden' would be Entwives gardens...still not in Rhun, but in Rhovanion, Wilderland, near Anduin, in place that later was known as Brown Lands...the Entwives gardens got destroyed during war of the Last Alliance. The Rhun is just a general designation of the geographical direction, it means East...so basically it denotes entire eastlands, which are either great grassy plains or "forests unexplored" and the Sea of Rhun is one major feature, etc. in the more distant place are Orocarni Red Mountains, of the east, and there were in the Uttermost East the lost lands of Cuivienen and Hildorien where the Elves and Men had their origin, certainly beautiful lands but still mortal ones and not some earthly paradise (Valinor plays that role). Tom can exert his power over the place, though he doesn't own it, he just works on it doing miraculous things...I mean Tom is the guy that can walk through rain and come out dry :). " Tom Bombadil came trotting round the corner of the house, waving his arms as if he was warding off the rain - and indeed when he sprang over the threshold he seemed quite dry, except for his boots. " This is a perfect example he can use his power to ward off the rain off of him, but he doesn't tell the rain to stop raining :). "'Then all this strange land belongs to him?' 'No indeed!' she answered, and her smile faded. 'That would indeed be a burden,' she added in a low voice, as if to herself. 'The trees and the grasses and all things growing or living in the land belong each to themselves. Tom Bombadil is the Master." Tolkien also writes of him: "He is [as Goldberry says] master in a peculiar way: he has no fear, and no desire of possession or domination at all. He merely knows and understands about such things as concern him in his natural little realm. He hardly even judges, and as far as can be seen makes no effort to reform or remove even the Willow. ... I do not mean him to be an allegory - or I should not have given him so particular, individual, and ridiculous a name - but 'allegory' is the only mode of exhibiting certain functions: he is then an 'allegory', or an exemplar, a particular embodying of pure (real) natural science: the spirit that desires knowledge of other things, their history and nature, because they are 'other' and wholly independent of the enquiring mind, a spirit coeval with the rational mind, and entirely unconcerned with 'doing' anything with the knowledge: Zoology and Botany not Cattle-breeding or Agriculture. Even the Elves hardly show this: they are primarily artists. Also T.B. exhibits another point in his attitude to the Ring, and its failure to affect him. You must concentrate on some part, probably relatively small, of the World (Universe), whether to tell a tale, however long, or to learn anything however fundamental - and therefore much will from that 'point of view' be left out, distorted on the circumference, or seem a discordant oddity. The power of the Ring over all concerned, even the Wizards or Emissaries, is not a delusion - but it is not the whole picture, even of the then state and content of that part of the Universe." Also funfact regarding any sort of comparison with the Entwives: "He has no connexion in my mind with the Entwives. What had happened to them is not resolved in this book. He is in a way the answer to them in the sense that he is almost the opposite, being say, Botany and Zoology (as sciences) and Poetry as opposed to Cattle-breeding and Agriculture and practicality"

I don't think Tolkien even knew how to fit T.B. into the stories. Tom Bombadil was the name of a doll his kids had and he wrote adventures for him. Then added him to LOTR. Tom is actually a VERY interesting enigma of a being and he's different. The One Ring has nothing over him. He's aloof to say the least These writers will ruin it for sure

I remember one interesting analysis of Tom Bombadil, emphasizing that wonderful origin of the character and Tolkein's own vagueness of who he was as a sort of expression of how the wilds aren't explainable and aren't meant to be. I love Tom Bombadil because he's entirely a mystery. But he's never a mystery meant to be solved, just appreciated because there exist things we cannot understand nor should expect to. There's more to this world. It's a magic in and of itself, different from the more concrete magic of elves and wizards - it's the magic of awe for a thing simply being the thing it is. And that is, I think, also part of why it is so rejuvenating for the hobbits. The fact that they're going to explain him makes me absolutely die. There's absolutely no way they will handle with any subtlety a character who doesn't have an origin story, is a fuzzy mystery to even the wisest in-universe people, and who seemingly brushes by the grand events of history with just a smile and a song. I half expect we will get a ham-fisted origin story for his yellow boots, and the writers will congratulate themselves for doing something they assumed fans wanted.

Seriously. I always found him the most interesting character in the books because he was an enigma meant to be left alone. The fact the One Ring that corrupts *EVERYONE couldn’t be entrusted to Tom Bombadil because he would care so little about it he may misplace it and not keep it safe, was just so mindblowing and meant to be left as it is. He’s kind of like the opposite version of Morla the Ancient One in Neverending Story as far as disposition but similar backstory

As Tolkien wrote about him: "He is [as Goldberry says] master in a peculiar way: he has no fear, and no desire of possession or domination at all. He merely knows and understands about such things as concern him in his natural little realm. He hardly even judges, and as far as can be seen makes no effort to reform or remove even the Willow. ... I do not mean him to be an allegory - or I should not have given him so particular, individual, and ridiculous a name - but 'allegory' is the only mode of exhibiting certain functions: he is then an 'allegory', or an exemplar, a particular embodying of pure (real) natural science: the spirit that desires knowledge of other things, their history and nature, because they are 'other' and wholly independent of the enquiring mind, a spirit coeval with the rational mind, and entirely unconcerned with 'doing' anything with the knowledge: Zoology and Botany not Cattle-breeding or Agriculture. Even the Elves hardly show this: they are primarily artists. Also T.B. exhibits another point in his attitude to the Ring, and its failure to affect him. You must concentrate on some part, probably relatively small, of the World (Universe), whether to tell a tale, however long, or to learn anything however fundamental - and therefore much will from that 'point of view' be left out, distorted on the circumference, or seem a discordant oddity. The power of the Ring over all concerned, even the Wizards or Emissaries, is not a delusion - but it is not the whole picture, even of the then state and content of that part of the Universe."

To squeeze Bombadil in, they should have had an Ent seeking him, hoping to find a clue to the disappearance of the Entwives. The Ent could rescue a Halfling who is lost and far from home. The amnesiac Gandalf could join them. But that would require character building, not their forte. Bombadil, who has been around since the Dawning, could find their various selves a pleasant distraction and, thus, without investment, bring Gandalf to his senses, put the Ent on a path, and determine the origin of Hobbits, all without losing his indifference. After all, what is Time to Bombadil?

Was he ever mentioned outside of the first LOTR book? Did they just throw him in there for no reason?

Is there strategy to make decisions that only appeal to people who know all the lore and hate all the lore? Is that really there target audiance?

The best part of the Tom B section is when the whale jumps of the roof and yells "It's Bombadillin' time!"

Space balls was a better Star Wars and more true to the source material that ROP is to LOTR.

Having someone acting Tom Bombadil will be very hard. I can only think of someone like Brian Blessed to pull it off.

Tom Bombadil is like the oompa loompas of LOTR. He just makes silly songs about stuff that's happening.

He was very powerful though. He holds the ring without being affected by it at all. And his songs could command the treants and even the barrow wights.

every accent on tv and in film of a slightly nature style person in a rural area down south (ie below Manchester to most) is Zummerzet wurzels, alright my lovelies brizzle accent, its like they think anyone who doesnt live in London is a redneck or something. It will absolutely sound like the Wurzels, and not Poldark from the 70s

Tom is important in the book as he acts as the indication that not all beings are aligned with good and evil. Also the parts with him in it mark the transition from the mainly children’s book which was a sequel to the hobbit to the darker more adult book after leaving the shire.
