Has anyone considered that Sauron became Sauron out of sheer frustration from living with Galadriel for a few months? Thanks Galadriel.

Galadriel on her never ending quest to speak to the Manager.

Whenever Arondir shot at the white orcs with his bow and said “this is payback for the transatlantic slave trade” it literally sent shivers down my spine. What a moment

The part where galadriel painted her face half white/half blue and screamed "they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!" to inspire her troops gave me chills

"realising they are not only stuck in the ocean, but now stuck in the ocean with galadriel, they scream for help" holy hell

"There is no patriarchy in middle earth, only a galadriachy" that line had me rolling 😂😂😂

That moment when Galadriel said "Where was Tolkien when we wrote the script?" was really inspiring.

That scene where Galadriel took over the Brotherhood of Steel and then threatened to fire all the devs at Bethesda so they would change the name to the Sisterhood of Steel was so gratifying. You go girl.

can we just appreciate how he condensed 7 episodes - or roughly 6 hours of screen time - in just 15 minutes without losing meaningful details of the plot?

You forgot to mention when Halbrand was saving her from the water, he dived down and was pulling an unconscious Galadriel to the surface but the the writers were like no this will lower her girl power levels so she miraculously wakes up from almost drowning, gets on the boat first somehow then helps him up to keep her superiority.

That scene where Galadriel took a dwarfish axe, tore down the locked room door and shouted with a manic grin " Heeere's Galadriel~! " gave me goosebumps.

This is how Amazon visioned everyone reacting to Galadriel.

By this time, she's supposed to be several thousand years old, married and a queen with a child. A person full of majesty and power, a powerful sorceress who's both wise and kind. She's not some bratty ass mary sue who's cocky as hell, makes terrible decisions every three seconds, and flails a sword around like a headless fucking chicken. Like goddamn, they actually nerfed the hell out of her while simultaneously destroying her entire character.

Has anyone realized that maybe when Gil-Galad announces their days of peace have begun, its not because sauron is gone but because galadriel is sailing to valinor and going away.

This satire commentary only gets an A. The A+ is only reserved for Galadriel.

When Galadriel said: I am not stuck on this boat with you, you are stuck on this boat with me I felt hope for the first time in years again. This is truly a movie.

Galadriel: -Cannot be burnt by lava, lava is burnt by her - corrupted the rings of power - quenches her thirst by drinking sea water - gravity doesnt pull Galadriel, she pulls middle earth

When Galadriel said "Look at me, look at me, I am the captain now" was awe inspiring.

“She makes Mary Sue sound like Mary Who?” I love it.

The worst part to me is that not only have they destroyed her character by making her things she isn't, but they've also stripped her of one of her greatest abilities. The ability to see through deceptions and illusions. Galadriel was the first to see through Anatar and perceive his true identity, but Saurbrand has completely escaped her detection. Awesome... Just awesome

It's not about the money, it's all about THE MESSAGE. - Hollywoke

Ah yes, I love whenever a character in any entertainment has to overcome challenges, and it's barely an inconvenience.

Chuck Norris was just Galadriel undercover

So Guyladriel constantly leaves everyone who accompanies her to die as she bails on them time and time again. What an extraordinary leader.

Galadriel’s performance is beautiful she cries at her own performance. What an inspiration

I love the part when after finishing the first season Tolkien says "Look how they massacred my boy." while thinking of his life work.

4:04 Watching this in retrospect really shows how absolutely genius the screenwriters are. Who would have thought that a person passed out from swimming for days could be brought back to full charge just by pouring 5ml of water on her lips, when she's covered in water? Pure genius!

When Galadriel looked Adar in the eyes and said “Say Hello To My Little Dagger” I truly felt the spirit of Tolkien writing shine.

The part where Galadriel said: “It’s about drive, its about power, we stay hungry, we devour!” was absolutely gut wrenching, made me cry goosebumps

The part when Galadriel says "E.T phone home" and ended all racism and male patriarchy in both Middle Earth and our own Planet Earth was so strong and inspiring.

Loved the part where the narrator was presenting Galadriel's escape from prison: "Galadriel, the goddess who crawled through 500 yards of shit and came out clean the other end." Just beautiful.

It's like the writers took the vision of corrupted Galadriel from when she was offered the ring and decided that's actually alright for them. "All will love me and despair!"

Dude. You're gonna be big. Not as big as Guyladriel's lack of self awareness. But still pretty big. Keep doing what you're doing.

"Did you put your ring in the mountain of fire!", Galadriel Holmes, the great elf detective, asked calmly.

Her character arc is a straight line to the top HAHAHAHA! Good one

The worst/best part is that your voiceover is exactly what was said in the script meetings.

My partner and I have just had a child but after watching this masterpiece of a series, we're seriously considering putting little Masie up for adoption. It's been a couple of months and she's been, how should I say this? Underwhelming. After the perfection of Galadriel we were really hoping our little one would be putting us in our place by now.

I've never seen a critique as stunning and brave as this! I am literally shaking

There's a saying in my country: "all the evil towards good" - roughly translated. It means that no matter how shitty a thing is, there's some good in there somewhere. Rings of power is a tragedy, but content, like this video, inspired by it is a fucking masterpiece.

The part where Galamdriele Says "There is a thermometer in me" , just stunning.

Let's all spare a minute to appreciate how privileged we are to live in a time where we can enjoy such a masterfully written and inspiring character. Thank you, Amazon

When Galadriel said "Luke, I am your father" I really felt that.

"She decides to lead and his fellow fellow male elves..Melves" xD

Dostoevsky & Melville could only dream of writing such a wonderful character. Truely a beautiful, perfect one-dimension character.

She is a Queen! Stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All of us love her and despair!

The level of sarcasm we need

That bit where she said, "It's Gladrin' time!" Genius writing.

Remember when TV shows, movies and books didn't all try to make you as depressed as possible? Remember when even anti-heroes were so well written that one could empathize with the struggle that the protagonist faced? This show makes me actively depressed.

Galadriel surviving a pyroclastic storm is literally the dumbest thing I have ever seen

Her character truly is genius. She's written like a bad character to make us think she's a bad character, but then they reveal....that she truly is a bad character, rather than making a predictable "this is actually a good character" plot twist.

Unlike the Rings of Power, this video is a masterpiece.

I love that boat scene where she jumps overboard to certain death and all her shipmates do nothing. No cries of "man overboard!" or even a call asking her what on earth is she doing? "Ya gonna die out there love!...get back ont boat before ye catch thi death of cold"...Just total silence as they sail away leaving her to die...Fine decision gentlemen.

I love how Galadriel - after Hellbrand unsuccessfully dodges a hail of bullets - turns to the agent and with absolute triumph exclaims “Dodge this!” and put a well placed arrow in his head. Stunning and brave.

This is by far the best review of The Rings of Power. The sarcasm in this case is appropriate, because the show is a joke and should not be taken seriously. The Rings of Power is a corruption of the art of film making.

Galadriel just staying still overlooking her army from a distance is far more inspirational than any speech Aragorn have ever said. Truly a galagestic leader.

I always wonder if one of these woke true believers saw this channel, would they know it’s satire or would this fall in line with exactly how they interpret what they’re watching? I absolutely love this channel.

you are a skilled writer and you make this show sound far better than it actually is

"with a smile that Joker would be proud of" God, I died here...

That scene where Galadriel took on a hailstorm of arrows, ballista bolts and trebuchet fireballs and came out with little more than a paper cut was good, but what made it perfect was the elf who told her she was bleeding, and GaLaDrIEl replied with ‘I ain’t got time to bleed’.

Sweet mother of God, Guyladriel literally climbs the highest mountain and swims the deepest sea to showcase her awesomeness. Stunning and brave to the max!!!!

I just had a thought. What if the real Galadriel is in a dungeon somewhere and Sauron has been masquerading as her this whole time. Would make more sense and be hilarious!

God I love sarcasm when it hits well and Rings of Power is the perfect target.

I loved the part where they opened the Ark and all the orcs melted, but she walked away smiling

"Her character arc is a straight line to to the top" 🤣🤣

My respect for your straight faced sarcasm grows with every video

Loved the part when Isildur said when talking about Galadriel “No, she wasn’t the Boogie Woman. She was the one you sent to kill the f*cking Boogie Woman and the patriarchy”. Get chills every time.

This is "chef's Kiss" perfect. Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

The writing process is to check boxes and make the story fit. Then these writers go with the first idea they get because they don't know where ideas come from and are afraid they won't get another one. Then to make things super easy for them they ignore time and space. This is known as the J.J. Abrams school of writing.

Galadriarchy!!! I couldn’t stop laughing. This was brilliant and I loved every second of it.

05:20 thank you for bringing up this plot overlook. In the extended version, this will be corrected, and Guyladriel will in fact rescue Halbrand, as befits a modern strong and independent woman.

“Atop a mountaintop”, i’m going to assume that was deliberate humour, bc it’s a perfect example of some of the RoP dialogue :)

The scene where Galadriel curves the bullet around the haystack, striking Westley and causing him to roll down the hill while shouting "As you wish" has been worn out on my VHS copy of the series. Tears me up every time.

" She makes Mary Sue look like Mary Who" 🤣🤣🤣

This show gives people hope! If you ever think in your life you did a bad job at something, just remember that Amazon did something worse with Rings of Powaaah.

At last someone gets this show and how much better it is than everything else! I'm literally crying real tears because I am so used to seeing hit pieces on rop. History will remember this show as a work of art on par with the cistene chapel and Leonardo da Vinci

This was wonderful. I howled as she faced down a PYROCLASTIC FLOW as though the Volcano's regret were imminent.

When Galadriel took an arrow to the shoulder and still managed to rally the French troops is my favorite moment in Middle Earth History.

More comedy gold. I salute you. Maybe you could do an episode on the genius of the dialogue in ROP. I think a focused distilled video of all that amazing dialogue might break the internet.

Rings of Power’s Galadriel is, without question, the single best character ever committed to film.

I offer you my blade, for you and your scriptwriting abilities are far beyond showrunners could ever dream.

It's brilliant! It's like having all their creative writers and directors are former interns of worm tongue and mouth of sauron. Captivating

Her “I have a dream” speech *left* (no pun intended) me speechless.

Galadriel's motto: "I missed the part where that's my problem!"

This is so well written all the show writers should take notes.

I've not seen one episode of RoP, but I've enjoyed all the critical videos... 1 billion well spent, as far as I'm concerned.

The fact that the OC's i made during my middle school edgelord phase had more character flaws and struggles than Galadriel is just fucking hillarious to me.

Finally someone who recognizes how truly great and awe inspiring this show is =)

*claps with standing ovation* Finally, someone who knows that this is a MASTERPIECE!! -J.P. and McKay

Still doesn't seem like that plastic armor they wear in the second age of Amazon's middle earth is going to do much in battle. But Galadriel's plot armor is invincible.

That scene that Galadriel beats the crap of Apollo Creed and says "If he dies, he dies", gives me goosebumps. Truly one of the series of all time!

68% of the audience for "House of the Dragon," the "Game of Thrones" prequel, is concentrated in the 18-49 age group, according to Nielsen. But "The Rings of Power" is struggling to attract younger viewers. It leans older, with 71% of its audience over 35 years of age. A quick look at TikTok shows that the "#TheRingsofPower" hashtag has 619 million views as of Friday, while the "#HouseoftheDragon" hashtag has 5.1 billion views. The funny thing in this comparison is that we are comparing a family show with a show strictly for adults. The main problem with Rings of Power is that writers had no clue what they were writing and who the show was for.

I couldn’t stop crackling at the awe of Gala-drieel! 🤣

Galadriel is insanely perfect, especially for the niece of Faenor. In fact, she's written to be so beautiful, so powerful, so magical by Tolkien that she works best as a periphery character and not at all like a lead character. To make Galadriel a believable main character, one has to endow her with a bunch of qualities and traits Galadriel does not have. To make Galadriel a main character is to always invite power-characters, 'mary-sueing,' so on and so forth, because characters as powerful as Galadriel are meant to serve as allies, counsel, or an obstacle to a hero's journey: Not BE the hero of a journey. ANY focus on Galadriel is bound to be a failure by the very design of the character by Tolkien and their purpose in the overall narrative.

The sarcasm levels in this one video is enough to fuel a rocket to another solar system if not even galaxy

I am a life long Tolkien fan and could not make it past few episodes. The show feels like someone took Tolkiens life work and shat on it. The skill it takes to make all these characters lame is amazing

That's what happens when _THE MESSAGE_ is more important than _THE STORY._ 🤯

I genuinely feel for Morfydd Clark, an absolute dream part which sadly she doesn't seem to be able to fill, too young to challenge the script writers, having to deliver her lines totally dead pan, is it her choice or is that the direction, don't know but its going to be hard for her recover from this disaster.

This is genuinely better than the whole season 1 of the show

The recorder version of “My Heart Will Go On”! Perfection 😂

the part where 'while galadriel sees through the walls' just killed me xd it was so hilarious that it made not only my day but also rest of my life xd
