befitting a king your new master oh excuse me who's that what dawn of the second age no longer will we be hunted as the broke Middle Earth as the same who finally healed him so when he said he killed

waa what oh my God what the hell his soul has escaped The Vessel bro that was like some [ __ ] is this I was going to say it looked like he was shooting a topic breath or something I understand now you understand now this is the place we see at the beginning of season 1 so this is like in the past he's gone to now sail the seven seas uh more more so like raft hey man playing hit game survive they did recast atar okay thank you it's like I watched this like this one I mean but not the same guy it's not the same guy it's I could tell it's it's the character still so I would like apolog o

know benjin Stark has his own Aura Rose blood is seeping What that blue right there he's a symbiote no literally like he kind of is Tick's died so many times that by the time we get to Lord of the Rings he's just an eye yeah like there's no not enough blood yet like left you're like oh the I sour on it that's like a magical thing that's like a a projection or something no that's just all he is at that point cuz he keeps can we put his blood in a jar going through all these bodies in a jar I love to have Sauron in a jar he put put himself so high up so people wouldn't stab him anymore there one true that's why he's the eye so he can keep an eye on him from all directions and make sure nobody's going to come up and stab him yep rat rat s don't drink that he's going to drink the juice oh my God does he like reincarnate as a rat he like he becomes the black [Music] plague it's like a temporary host it will do oh oh my God little ref I'm sorry oh no God oh I don't like the tendrils you're going to hate the movie Venom oh God not the desert oh oh oh see oh yeah it's a Hungry Caterpillar dude inor there's going to be a sack of bu this is pretty gross this is what I would imagine Sauron being like this true St yeah the light I hope Sauron in true Venom fashion possesses somebody becomes like a voice in their head oh he's sliding there he goes he's just going to freeze up there oh can we hitch hike all right e dude now now I just feel bad for him I don't if you if you look over to your left and you see black tendrils on the ground just running over oh you're done well spilling little Sauron juices everywhere oh oh he feeds H he consuming he is feasting right now oh it's blood dripping from that little canteen we're in human okay now hey hello H Brad Brad how Brad so I guess it's not a possession thing though cuz that's that's definitely not the person that was no no no driving Carriage it's just maybe influenced by what he eats the human body is is but his canvas to to create the form that he desires most which is pretty boy the previous version was an elf maybe he ate an elf he looks [Music] happy so happy he just got betrayed doesn't look evil at [Music] all the look that Blake and igy give each other when they start calling each other Wing nuts at the start of every Lord of the Rings movie that way I know you suffered I can see it in your eyes is that what you see there's another life waiting for you but Fortune's can turn for even the most powerful you're so wise Grim reminder some place good nice your mut chops cross the sea a man can escape himself across the sea you said path damn they're close choice is yours friend choice is his which way you heading boys I mean if I'm on I got to go meet up with the Orcs those are my guys guys all right they're just going to stab you again he's got like Stockholm syndrome he keeps going back come on guy maybe this time no way is he going to sink the boat bro he's going to summon the sea serpent what if s at that [ __ ] now that I would love to see I don't think we'd make it to the movie nightmares again and the next day and the next day okay Mr Krabs until it becomes a of no just going to yep just wants the deck yo oh I don't think there's much helping him well that was quick did you expect it to be slow that shit's like twice the size of the boat three times maybe oh yeah is it cold up my op my queen damn now it just feels obvious it was all there the wuning was on the wall [Music] yeah I will say though I I think one of my favorite things of the first season was the music mhm yeah be mccu Cooks be mccu constantly Cooks he is I love him so much the whole show has yeah has everything it needs to succeed it's just lacking like the direction that's needed yeah like I I think overall the show looks very nice and stuff um it just was a shame that the first season felt like it had nothing to do essentially right hi King snitch Harold El three rings now who is this man he's no man s he is no man oh I should write this show askar reading as one appearing in Fair form to hide his true self he was so handsome hide the the Venom that lies underneath he so is that a curse how could you yeah he she knew of all our kind he deceived me I was deceived no gadriel you were blind blinded by your own Pride it's the same thing the Rings show the a free spot his finger he never touched themm for weeks the Rings Elon cast Into the Fire Oh Sees him now we jumping cast it into the water oh my God He Lives cast the Rings into the Waters of Mount Flume [Laughter] that [ __ ] is gushing D Man Undercover Boss yeah secret Chopper over here or mystery shopper welcome to Mordor work is land well fed well work such a bumer and you'll feed the soil should put that on the

this guy he got put in charge the dude who put put it in the Dam drain the dam the Glazer oh oh you know it seems weird that you stab the person in front of them so that everyone knows that they just have to bow down I guess you you just need to set one example yeah how does Adar got the SKR X do the king of the Southlands turned himself in Lord father says he wants to negotiate he wants that Revenge dude let my people go o Moses that was a Moses quote yours will die oh oh since galadriel's defeat she's sought out a new ally an ancient sorcerer to instruct the elves in forging a new weapon

Gandalf he's in Arizon is it really that's the theory but I I was getting that to's IP is n free they have to call him the stranger I got that vibe from the first season okay that was I mean in a in a weird way it's like that feels like the most obvious answer which in turn because the way that everything works nowadays with TV shows it feels like there's going to be some bait and switch but I really is that a sta the hell is this oh oh it's kind of dancing around is it between worlds it's like oh oh what is thaton yeah it was sodon that's cool okay well we might have our answer here okay he's the stranger bro it's not g The Stranger got that look in your eye oh God you don't like NY I don't like the hobbits it doesn't like the hobbitses my Golem's not too good today that was pretty good what is this PV I think are Mages still following oh who's this who's this mask oh is that like their real form I think it looked like that I was going to say that the mask looks familiar when

got three trees here it's like a puzzle I play games oh no oh no well come on you try further he really looks like Jim Henson who Nori further Nori no the probably Gandalf probably Gand just just call

feel the legs in the throat the shell they're dancing no don't say that we used to sing little boogie songs they'd have music to dance to when they it is quite all right for a half foot to miss home

friend well my Lord we Grant him entry he gave you the crafting [Music] recipe a gift he said okay okay I think this was a good first episode what is this oh is this a preview or go trailer yeah it's a yeah Outro it's a preview I'll find out next yeah we'll find out so I like the beginning I like the the background we got on Sauron him getting yeah effing merked freaking merked by his people and Blake gaslighting me about I di for like five minutes why do you twist [ __ ] that obviously is not Adar the Adar from season one it's obvious the character not the actor right to not get confused and I literally said I'm like that's not Adar unless they recasted it and you're like no no this is same guy and I'm making Game of Thrones references like that isn't your favorite show of all time and you're sitting there like I have no idea what you're talking about I did for one I if anyone was gaslighting anyone it was me or I'm it was me getting gasl by you it okay okay I didn't know it was Benin and two the the makeup and basically how the character was presented it it looked like the same charact dude to me oh yeah I mean the fit was almost identical but it it was like I can see in the face it was a different dude but like I I get and it was a different sour on and I'm just like I was I thought I thought you were just confused I was trying to help you out I'll be honest with you I was not confused I knew it was one of two things but you're just argumentative type Booky it's okay you know what I'm G let a slide I'm a nice guy oh yeah yeah it didn't necessarily fix anything that I had distaste for from season 1 um but at the same time it was a great first episode like you said mhm like the the opening scene going back to that little uh Throne Room Sanctuary whatever you want to call it that's up north um was good the Sauron backstory was good the acting the the only issue has ever been the writing with this show and I think episode one there was no problem with it it didn't move the needle but there was no problem with it so I'm pleased it it's made me feel a little more confident about this season if it's able to yes optimistic if it keeps this up and can improve on this then I think it'll be a much more enjoyable time than season one which I'm I'm excited for I mean this one already felt like okay there's like we know what the stakes are we know who all the players are which I guess part of that is because we established like the slow bur at the beginning yeah um I I think I think the main issue for me was having payoff which we didn't get until like halfway through season one yeah I think now that we have like um Stakes to actually fight for it becomes much more interesting of a show mhm yeah yeah I like what the setup is of saon just playing both sides he is just being a master manipulator mhh um Cory did you have any thoughts I mean it's just an echo chamber of everything you guys are saying um first episode it came in hot like they weren't messing around with uh this howon back story I had no idea what was going on I was like who is this guy I thought he was just a phony claiming to Sauron and then I I thought how was going to show up and be like no I'm Sauron I I thought that too I I had a brief thought yeah it turns out he's Venom so it's cool because I had no idea he was like that because in Lord of the Rings you just see him as like this I don't know what you want to call his armor it looks like something out of fortnite um yeah but yeah yeah that oh no you go ahead I I had a different thought I was just going to say that and the things going on with the stranger or uh Gandalf as we like to call him we don't know exactly who is watching him in Arizona but I'm sure we'll figure that out soon and um I'm glad that uh poppy tagged Al it's always nice to have you know at least a Party of Three yeah when you're on your journey or when you get into a pickle um sure and then then the guy the old wise elf uh I don't recall his name poy the one that didn't throw the Rings away yeah um I don't remember his name either I think it's sedic let me confirm uh let me confirm for well I like that um because I I didn't know if he was going to be able to destroy them but I do like that he turned around and made the play of hey you know I'm going to put one of these rings on myself because I'm the goat I'm like the oldest and wisest so obviously I get one elron doesn't get one because he's a hater uh and then gigal lad or gilgalad whatever his name is and then uh gadriel I I really like her ring it's elegant just like her crown yeah course she deserves one I I do think it's going to come back to bite them in the ass somehow especially now that Sauron has pulled up and he's gonna be like hey man we need some more Rings the guy's name is sirun seun yeah seun if you want to do without accent it's Sean Sean yeah I'm I'm not very good at accenting things I got you all right I mean yeah I'm well I was going to say earlier I I am it's interesting to see sauron's like backstory and part of me is like it is it's cool to see but I'm also kind of what you were saying Cory it's like yeah in in the original Lord of the Rings all we know him is this like mysterious thing in armor essentially mhm it's like I I can't tell if I like knowing what he is now which is weird weird T tendril hent looking monster hentai or what can we say that I think so that's fine um it does yeah because it takes away a little bit of the the Mystique but I think they they are doing something interesting with it which I do appreciate I agree it because it's not playing it safe like we could have just had nothing happen uh at the beginning we we could have not seen that form they're actually you know going out of the comfort zone introducing new Sauron lore he is a you know he's a Sy he he he's he's the the creature that manifests himself in different forms and so like we always had that illusion in our head without an actual like Foundation to base it on you know what I mean so that I don't mind it it's kind of gross but I don't mind it all right we good good mhm yeah yeah all right well stay tuned for
