Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe method used by the followers of Sauron to "activate" Mt. Doom is based in real science. "Phreatomagmatic eruptions" occur when water is introduced to hot magma. The rapidly changing pressures and temperatures of the water and magma eventually lead to a volcanic eruption. That said, the eruption in the show occurs much faster than any natural process would probably take.
- Crazy credits"This production contains dialogue, characters, and places that were inspired by, though not contained in, the original source material."
Featured review
Only better because there is less story
I can see many fans believe this is the best episode so far and I can understand why. It is more action packed, more focused and the ending is powerful, unexpected and intriguing. But the main reason why this episode "feels" better is simply because it is so action oriented, it is not hindered by the shortcomings of the horrendous writing. Ironically, since the story is practically non-existant and there is less dialogue, the episode turns out to be slightly better. There is one thing I really dislike about it though and it's not the first time it happens. This episode makes Middle Earth feel so small compared to the books and the LotR trilogy. The sense of wonder and huge scope is totally gone. Armies can cross lands and countries in what seems to be hours. In a previous episode we saw a character getting lost in the middle of the ocean, deciding to swim back to land (!!) and encountering two ships in a short time. That was preposterous, but seeing an army cross hundreds of miles in a matter of hours is not much better. Also, we are supposed to be watching the biggest TV production ever, but battles feel small and restrained compared to what we saw in the films. I can't hate Rings of Power like some people do, it has some good things, but it is always underwhelming and even its best moments feel bland and half baked to me.
