#17 - Men want Power, NOT Immortality - Every Change in The Lord of the Rings

views November 30th

Michael and Jonathan found out someone's been copying our look at the changes PJ made to the books--and then applying that to The Rings of Power?! We happily point out their failure (or was it just an AI article?!)... This week we also take a look at Bilbo's prologue in the extended edition--particularly in how it takes cues from Tolkien's prologue to The Lord of the Rings. We might just surprise you with our discussion! In our extended episode (available for our members -- https://theonering.com/members) we talk more about the article that copied our recent videos about the film changes, including: * How they get elven diversity all wrong * How seeing yourself as skin-color in Middle-earth never matters * How fitting more stories into The Rings of Power was, well, stupid 🎉 To get the extended episode, become a member at https://theonering.com/members ($4/mo and free for the 1st month)! —————————————————— 🔗 Episode Links 🔗 —————————————————— 8 Things The Rings Of Power Does Better Than Peter Jackson’s Lord Of The Rings Movies ► https://screenrant.com/rings-of-power-better-lord-of-the-rings-movies Letters of JRR Tolkien (Revised and Expanded) ► https://amzn.to/3R67d2o Submit a LOTR Film Change ► https://theonering.com/changes Make Tolkien Great Again - Tengwar Hat ► https://shop.theonering.com/listing/make-tolkien-great-again-tw —————————————————— 🎧 Subscribe to our Podcast 🎧 —————————————————— Get the Extended Podcast ► https://theonering.com/members Apple ► https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/window-on-the-west/id1625960455 Google ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5wb2RjYXN0bWlycm9yLmNvbS93b3R3 —————————————————— 🔎 If You Like Tolkien 🔎 —————————————————— Make Tolkien Great Again - Tengwar Hat ► https://shop.theonering.com/listing/make-tolkien-great-again-tw The Silmarillion ► https://amzn.to/3a7wE0k The Letters of J.R.R.
