Lord of the Rings Discussion Thread

It’s basically an indie animation web series made by GLITCH Productions. At first it’s about cute little robots murdering each other, then it becomes a more complex story involving Eldritch horrors, Reality-ending A.I, and more.

Definitely a must-watch. Though I will say: it has its flaws. Mostly in terms of the story, because each episode has a relatively short runtime of 20+ minutes, so stuff tends to be crammed in and rushed, while other details are completely left out.

That sounds awesome!

That sounds awesome!

You bet it does! The Scaling of the verse in particular is somewhat inconsistent but cohesive enough that a tier can be put in (I won’t give spoilers as to not ruin the mystery)

Was looking at Sauron's profile and just noticed that while he has thousands of km as his range for weather manipulation, nothing about it is listed on his profile There are like a good amount of abilities missing for different characters too that somehow get referenced on their profiles.

Most profiles are outdated AF. Aaragon, Boromir, Gimli, Frodo, and Sam don't have a movie profile. Legolas doesn't have a movie profile, but he does have a Lego profile for some reason. The Ents, Wolves, Vampires, or most of LOTR's bestiary don't have them. Someone needs to do a massive rework of the verse.

Lmao Legolas only having a Lego profile is hilarious for some reason. I imagine after the 1-A through 0 revisions all of the abilities can be hammered out. The formatting and images on a majority of the profiles could be much better as well. The major problem is that unfortunately, it seems like only the people on this thread engage with LoTR, so it would probably take a while to get everything worked out.

Edit: Also the "unimpressive hax" part of the verse page needs to get negged because it offends me ;-;

We got statements that should put cosmic souls Morgoth above concepts and limited BDE. Unimpressive hax my a**

Fr lmao it is definitely at least much above the average verse in terms of hax, not even including the tier that they potentially work on

Anyone know the size of Mordor? So far all I got is this: https://www.glyphweb.com/arda/m/mor...hape,,to west and four hundred north to south.

Talk about outdated. At this point, LotR is arguably one of the strongest verses in all of fiction, alongside The Elder Scrolls, Marvel Comics, Cthulu Mythos, etc. And hot take incoming, LotR is a stronger verse than SCP. I have no regrets in saying that.

Freezing cold take
Eru solos SCP

Ah damn Vividen is back

Might be some minor reality warping. Alternatively could be some time screwery since the Elven Rings seem to prevent fading with some temporal power.

I’d more call it some Kind of curse Manipulation, maybe even something like the Black Breath but on a larger scale

Could definetly be that instead.

I'll be making some LotR scaling videos on my YouTube channel to help people realize how strong the verse is, but that might be a while out. I have some older LotR vids on my main channel but I've switched to a paleontology focus there

Hey, paleontology's pretty great as well. Used to be my dream as a kid.

Tier 0 changes will mean even the tier 3 Ainur are literally unkillable due to Eru's Únats.

I have some other stuff "cooking", but that's not till after the Elven page is done.
