December 18, 2023 The Top 4 Mature/Uncomfortable Scenes in Tolkien’s Middle-Earth
People often think of fantasy, and particularly Tolkien’s fantasy, as
light, fluffy stuff for kids or immature adults, but in these scenes
Tolkien shows us that he can write some serious material that isn’t
appropriate for everyone.

December 11, 2023 8 Scenes from Tolkien We REALLY DO Want to See on Screen
Last video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb2SGOGcnIo&pp=ygU-NyBzY2VuZXMgd291bGQgbG92ZSB0byBzZWUgYnV0IHByb2JhYmx5IHNob3VsZG4ndCB0b2xraWVuIGxvcmU%3D) I talked about scenes that should be really cool if adapted visually,
but probably wouldn’t work for one reason or another. This list is
about the scenes that have yet to be adapted that actually should be because they’d be AWESOME.

December 04, 2023 7 Scenes from Tolkien We’d Love to See on Screen...But Probably Shouldn’t
Say what you will about visual adaptations of Tolkien, we all would love to see Middle-earth, if we can’t actually visit it. But as
amazing at it would be to see Tolkien’s vision brought to life,
there are some scenes that are best left as words on a page.

November 27, 2023 Unexpected Hospitality in The Lord of the Rings: Gildor and Faramir | Thanksgiving Special
In light of the recent U.S. celebration of Thanksgiving, it seemed
fitting to discuss the parallel cases of hospitality offered to Frodo
by Gildor and Faramir, which both give Frodo many reasons to be
thankful.

November 20, 2023 Details in The Fellowship of the Ring that Peter Jackson Absolutely Nailed
I’ve been critical of Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy for almost as long as I’ve had this channel, but I have to give him credit where it’s due—sometimes he completely hits it out of the park on the little things.

November 13, 2023 Faramir, the Ring, and the Nature of Evil in Middle-earth
Some have argued that changing Faramir’s character in the movies so that he falls victim to the Ring initially makes more sense, but this overlooks some key insights about how the Ring really works in Tolkien’s world.

October 30, 2023 When Did Arwen Become Mortal? Exploring the Choice of the Half-Elven in Tolkien’s Mythology
Recently I was pondering the end of the Tale of Aragorn and Arwen, which has always bugged me because of Aragorn’s apparent ignorance of Arwen’s mortality. The more I thought about it, though, the more I realized his ignorance actually has a solid basis.

October 22, 2023 Peter Jackson Changes to The Lord of the Rings that Make NO Sense, Part 1
I
have a love-hate relationship with Jackson’s Lord of the Rings
trilogy, with the “hate” half mainly due to changes he made. In
this series I’ll explore some of those changes, specifically the
ones that render the story somewhat internally incoherent.

October 16, 2023 Maedhros & Beren: One-Handed Brothers from Different Mothers
I noticed some interesting parallels between Beren and Maedhros, starting with the fact that they both lost a hand, but when looking into it I found that it goes MUCH deeper than that….
