What would be the point? The entire idea behind Annatar is that that is the form he used to work with Celebrimbor to create the Rings, but we already saw Halbrand do that in season 1. We saw Celebrimbor come up with the idea of rings in season 1. So what is there left for Annatar to do?

@Marandahir 20 күн бұрын

It’s great that they’ve made Celebrimbor lose his hand. It’s no secret that Tolkien based Celebrimbor on Nudd Llaw Ereint, the silver-smith god of Welsh mythology and the Mabinogion (equivalent to Irish Nuada and Romano-British Nodens), specifically off the portray of the God at the Romano-British shrine at Lydny Park (Lydny is a corruption of Lludd Llaw Ereint, which itself was a metathesis of Nudd Llaw Ereint). Nudd or Lludd famously lost his hand and replaced it with a silver one (just like Nuada Argatlam lost an arm and replaced it with a silver one). The shrine has connections to Tolkien’s ideas about the Ring, Moria, and the friendship of Elves and Dwarves in Eregion. So I would expect to see a Silver-fisted Celebrimbor later in the season to match the meaning of his name!

@Makkaru112 20 күн бұрын

I don’t think he actually lost it. Maedhros did though. And he got a wonderful golden one to wear overtop of where the hand and rest of arm used to be. And it had a wondrous curved blade attached to it too

The snowy tower is probably the tower from the start of ep 1 from s1, where Sauron conducted his experiments. The scene we see here is probably a flshback to when Adar betrays Sauron and the explotion is caused by the disruption of the experiment and Saurons physical forms destruction.

I have experience in archery. Look where the point of the arrow is at 8:17 It's on the wrong side of the bow. When the archer is right handed, the bow has to be held on the left hand, and the arrow has to be shot on the right side of the bow. That's how I was trained in Japanese archery (Kyujutsu) and the English long bow. Unless this is some technique I have not heard of, do correct me if I'm wrong.

Perhaps the logic regarding Annatar is this: we (the audience) know who he is, but by using the same actor/face, we're showing you the power of Sauron to fully deceive the elves...so much so that he can appear as 'elf' and not be noticed. Other thought is that Sauron invades Celebrimbor's brain (Inception/Dark Lord occlumency style) and makes him believe that he can make more rings and then control those people groups with the elven rings... (which would be a silly & possibly useless twist on what Sauron's plan is anyway). Like you, I feel it's that storyline that really needs a major form of redemption in this season. We shall see what comes...

Siege of Eregion possibly? I think keeping Charlie Vickers is just a creative choice. You could have his shapeshifting be a core part of the character where anyone could be Sauron, but they’ve decided it’s better we invest in this actor’s portrayal. I don’t think they’re trying to portray him as looking the same, just with hair and ears, it’s just we the audience see that it’s still “Sauron” but characters in the show will see someone different. It’s just a different way of portraying a shapeshifter.

My only thought is maybe some of the Annatar scenes are set before the events of season 1. Then he shapeshifts into a human because he wanted to go to Numenor where a human would be more positively received than an elf. It is sorta the only thing i can think of that make some sense. I do hope they don't rehash the story of "who is Sauron? Where is he?" Again. I'm fine with some dramatic irony where the audience sees his plan unfold and knows who he is and the characters are trying to figure out what is going on. But i don't want us guessing and wondering who he is again. Not that it was much of a mystery

Creating a context between consecutive scenes in the teaser setup may lead to misconceptions about the scenario. So I don't think there's a relationship between the scene where Durin IV is speaking and what's going on.

There was a different actor for Annatar. It was an Indian guy. When Amazon revealed it, there was a backlash, Amazon withdrew it. Then Dictor Van Doomcock revealed that they had to do some "reshooting". That is most likely why there was no trailer for Rings of Power during the superbowl earlier this year. The dates coincide.

Season 1 did not leave me with confidence, no matter how much I want to love this. The trailer looks good and more exciting than the first season, but trailers can make anything look exactly how they want. I will wish for this to be good, amazing even, but they really need to show that for me to have hope for the future.

Annatar will magically restore Celebrimbor's hand, regaining his trust. I would make a wager on it.

@Makkaru112 20 күн бұрын

That’d make the show even more dumb and anti Tolkien. Annatar could forge him a new hand and it’d make it a tad better but it’s only going to get better if they scrap season one and continue as if it didn’t happen for the most part and start honouring Tolkien instead. It works every time.

Wouldn't Cirdan be seen (maybe more of a tease) in the shot with Galadriel and Gil-Galad holding out their hands showing the rings? The red one looks like Narya and Cirdan did have it before giving it to Gandalf.

My first thought was that the black ooze thing was the Balrog after it fought Galdalf and fell into the underground lake - "a thing of slime, stronger than a strangling snake."

yeah no, the battle between gandalf and the balrog does not happen for another few thousand years. the show is set in the second age, the lord of the rings is set in the third age.

The black ooze is going to be the sickness that affected the tree in Lindon, conjured up by Sauron to force them to believe the story that they're dying, so that they make the Rings of Power and he can "bind them in darkness"

How this trailer is generally received is probably been clouded by the fact HOTD dropped a new one within a couple hours after it.

@maryokeeffe3528 20 күн бұрын

The butterflies/moths are probably the three witches/servants of Morgoth from the first season coming back from when the Stranger blasted them into a flock of moths. Did anyone think they were going to stay dead? The black sludgy thing is probably the DARKNESS from season one - remember the rot on the trees where Gil-galad was telling Elrond the Elves would die without mithril? I'm betting this is the MAGIC DEATH DARKNESS oozing out into Khazad-dum or something. The showrunners would think this kind of thing is a fantastic idea, remember what they did with inventing an origin story for mithril 🙄

Enjoying reading some of the wig jokes but I think that might just be Sauron revealing himself to Celebrimbor after he fooled him as Annatar (and/or as Halbrand). By the time of the sack of Eregion, Sauron's not trying to fool anyone anymore. I'm still hoping Sauron as Annatar will be played by an other actor. If this trailer's Sauron look is Sauron's default/revealed look going forward, I think that would be fine.

Lol Celebrimbor losing his hand, like his uncle Maedhros, well since Celebrimbor is Feanorian, he should also look like one, but none of that until now. And I bet they don't go the horror route that would be Celebrimbors torture and death at the hands of Sauron and his troops after his capture...I think they will do the sack of Eregion, but I doubt it will be any good ..or accurate :D. They tried to correct some of their mistakes, like bringing Annatar in now, but I guess it's too late.

@silentarrowz346 20 күн бұрын

I mean I feel like Amazon is trying to make corrections but it has already failed. They should have restarted and made the real corrections from the beginning. Thank you for your opinions! What is crazy is they actually made annatar at all. Also the armor they improved but again they could have made the exact same as the movies it is still lack luster for how much money went into it. Also the fact the elves don’t glow in their cities still is so sad since they always glowed in the movies and how they were described in the books.

Gandalf doesn't (and won't) exist in the Second Age for the Rings of Power - The Stranger is one of the Blue Wizards as the story continues with the Easterlings and Southrons. We will probably also discover the Second of the Blue Wizards as well.

I actually like that we kept the same actor for Sauron. If it was another actor, then we would go back to the guessing game from season 1. No need to play that game in Season 2. That could get annoying that we do not know who Sauron is but if you were a reader of the books , you would know who Sauron is so there's going to be a disconnect.

2:00 - The black goo is Venom. Amazon are proud to announce the cross-over between Middle Earth and the Marvel Universe that nobody wanted. Visually it looks amazing and it's interesting to see what all that money gets you so I'll watch it. It'll never be "my" Middle Earth though, not with that Galadriel. I'll try to enjoy it for what it is and it COULD be a really good show from now on... but it can never be canon among the Tolkien cinematic universe for me.

Long blonde hair? I doubt he’d present himself as a Vanyar elf as Galadriel is mostly Vanyar herself of the Calaquendi. So she’d know even faster that Annatar is totally not something to treat with. Ever. And she made sure it spread that this character is not to be treated nor allowed in your areas etc etc. Vanyar are a super close knit and very powerful clan that have earned the position of right hands of the Valar. Those who learned from and communed with the Valar upon the mountain where doom(fates) are to be studied and decided. They often could see Maiar and Valar a lot easier then other elves for various reasons. The ainur reside fully in the unseen realm and are not walking around Valinor every day.

Expectations not raised from this trailer, still going to watch with an open mind, but setting myself up for less disappointment than s1 as I just don’t have the same hope as I did back then

@Dr_Cole 20 күн бұрын

I liked your review. From someone that I know was not a fan of S1, I thought your review was balanced. I did feel like the whole issue with Anatar is their attempt of a mea culpa. I’m not against it being the same actor, but agree that he should have undergone a more radical metamorphosis. I enjoyed S1, largely because I only expected it to be an entertaining TV series that was based on, but not a true telling of, Tolkien’s second age. There isn’t enough live action Tolkien’s influenced works so I was fine with this approach. Therefore, I remain upbeat for S2. I do agree that the battle of Eragion will, at least, be epic TV battle. 3.5 months to go for the Tolkien faithful to go nutso in critique.

As a Tolkien fan I'm cautiously optimistic about this. I doubt they will follow the lore as they should have done with Season 1. I'll watch just because my sister was part of the film crew, the creative team who made the costumes for the dwarves.

I assume that the whole Charlie Vickers makeup thing is to help viewers realise that it is still Sauron, as Amazon assume that some people watching aren't that clever!
