Description

Well, we are ALL IN OUR FEELINGS after an incredible finale...which hurt us in many ways. We did have some criticisms, and decided to tackle those first before ending on a high. So, if you want to jump around, timestamps follow!

We start with our thoughts on the big Sauron and Galadriel scene (00:04:09 ) before concluding that much of our anxiety over how this was handled is to do with our disappointment over Galadriel's place in the show and her character arc (00:26:37 ). Our critique carries through as we talk through everything Rhun (00:43:32 ).

Our positivity bursts back into being, possibly surprisingly, when we get to Pelargir (00:49:51 ) and then Numenor (01:00:05 ). We get emotional over Durin III (01:10:30 ) and then tackle all the 'little elfy bits' (01:15:19 ). Finally, we discuss Adar with a slice of mental health + fandom (01:24:48 ) before finishing with our farewell to Celebrimbor (01:35:55 ).

We're aware that we started running out of time at the end, but if you're disappointed that we skipped any details...THE REFORGING IS COMING. Keep an eye on our socials, and we'll be back soon. Thank you all for coming on this ride with us.
