So for people wondering what the hell's new, what's new? I've never done one of these things where I've reacted to the full episode. And I've had many friends suggest, and many of you suggest that I do this. So I'm going to be doing it for Andor for sure, but then I was like, you know, let me try to do it for Lord of the Rings. So I couldn't get to it last night.

I'll do it in the morning. So I called my good buddy, Nerd Chronic. So if you're familiar with him from all his amazing work at the spectacular, excuse me, he will be doing something for the spectacular. But for the Shmodeon in general. And he and I are working together again. And I asked Nerd Chronic. I said, hey, what do you think about getting out a Lord of the Rings reaction for the episode four? And he's like, let's do it.

So that's it. do that. We're going to watch along this. I'm going to give my thoughts about it afterwards and we'll talk about it on the other side. So here it is. Here's Lord of the Rings and here's episode four. The Great Wave. What name have you chosen for her?

Give me a name. Tom, Frank, Ralph. Smart. I like it. Guide by steps. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Numer under attack. Uh-oh. It's a beautiful shot. This show is shot.

Gorgeous. Oh wow. Oh wow, this is like very Pompeii, huh? Is she gonna wake up from a dream? Whoa! Yeah, I knew it. Dream. What business would you begin with? Cleaning the poop out of my pants from my dream. I like this Rome feel that we got going on in this town. This guy's hair is fantastic. Clefiness, the men of small ambition.

I'd much rather it if you were wide. My son. Yeah, get your shit together, Jr. I say, the queen's either blind or an elf lover. This guy's really causing it up. Got his balls kicked in, so now he wants to cause some beef. We are sons of Elros, Tarminiatur, whose host conquered Morgoth himself. That's right.

You want to play politics? You're messing with my hair. My friends, trust in me. Yeah, that's right. Let me see Mo. What's Mo doing now? Yeah. Oh no, no, Mo respects him. Mo respects the speech.

It's impressive. I was going to say infuriating. You must be the new apprentice. Oh, you don't know her? And your name is Kevin. Hey, Aryan. Now. Just blow my spot, Uncle Joe.

I believe the man you hold in your dungeons is no common brawler. Oh, you're going to rat him out? But with your backing, they might unite behind his banner. What do you mean backing? It's a lost cause here. To save the men of the South. before Sauron claims their lands for his own. I like what you're doing, but I don't think they're listening, Galadro.

Nevertheless, Numenor has chosen another path. Dumb. This audience has ended. Well, that's why you're having dreams about waves. Uh-oh. Hold it, Gladriel, hold your temper. Damn! Groping for a handholds in a tempest.

Getting heated here. This is what I'm talking about. And it will not be. Queld by you regent whoa we're getting serious here back and forth yeah you kind of asked for that one Yeah, you're feeling it you're the one that's gonna mess some shit up dude you got a chance to knock this whole thing down you yeah Wee there must be some sort of mistakes my phone I've seen you ease that Halliard proper a hundred times that was deliberate you're off the sea guard off of one thing all three of you

That's a little harsh. You can find out if this is Sauron or not? Uh-oh. Something you don't want to wake up to. He's going to this guy. Pop his eyes out or something? Sleep. Oh, yeah, he knew that was coming.

He looked sad, though. He's talking to him. You're nervous. Where do the oaks go, you father? So, war's like, you better watch your place, man. He might be talking nice to you, but sure respect. Don't do it. it. It's not gonna work out for you. Don't try it.

Theo, you can either help me or you can make it harder. Did Theo grow a lot and get a deep voice? Maybe it's the same. I don't know. It seems a lot bigger. I'm telling you, this kid's like five inches taller. Oh, I didn't see. I don't lick the knife. What's the point? Huh? I guess it's the reason why. What do you know to do that? Look at this. And now you're shitting in your pants or are, aren't you? No, your arm, yeah. I wouldn't run after him. The kid just stabbed himself in the arm, grew four inches in a day and a half, and then cut your fingers off.

Right, hey. It's kind of disgusting, huh? Oh, yeah, come on. Yeah, you had to have heard him. You bopped them in the head with the... What happened to Rowan? He was off to mine quartz chasm today. Why would he leave without taking his chiseling axe? And why would you be preparing his favorite meal if he's gone to a chasm that takes two full days to dissent? Dwarfing climbers like my husband can make the descent to quartz chasm in just a few hours. Damn. Was there anything else he wanted to ask about, did he? So, okay.

Call me out of my shit. I'm going to tell you even a better lie. That sounds more convincing. He's not easily taken in that elf. Certainly not. I didn't believe you. I didn't believe you. Yeah, that's awesome.

Oh, what's he? You know, you can see it? A lot of dishonesty going on in this episode, man. Nobody can work together. That's why shit goes down. I don't think so, I'm on. That's why he's the smart one. Big reveal. Oh, yeah, come on.

You want it for yourself. You know what the hell this is. I care nothing for whatever is in that chamber. I do care for you. For this friendship. He's trying, man. Alron's been trying. I swear on the memory of my father.

A.R. N.D. or the mariner? Yeah. Anything you tell me here will end in my ears alone. All right. I'll hold back on your promise. When you are. What hell is that? What do you call this miracle o?

In our tongue, gray glitter. In yours something like me, throud. Oh, Mithra. Oh, shoot. Mithrid. Nice. That's cool. All right, that's cool. That's pretty fun. Come on. Gladri, let me. Come on. You got to be careful about this kind of stuff.

You knew you got pissed off, and now you're in the cell. Queens Court isn't exactly your usual battlefield, is it? You do well to identify what it is that your opponent most fears. And exploit it. No. Oh. Give them a means. of mustering it.

All of a sudden she throws you in a cell. Why? You challenged a power. I demanded to speak with her father. Right. I like their dynamics, too. Resigned from the cadets. Did you?

No worse. You got to dismiss. Yeah. I just ruined my friend's lives. Shamed our family name. I don't deserve to go west. Well, don't worry. You'll have even more of a legacy to leave.

Yep. Going to find the king in the tower. Majesty for the intrusion, but I who no longer answers to that. Your father was loyal to the elvish ways. Why are you not? Yeah, show a little. Tell me. Because it drove him into madness.

What's that? Oh shit. Is that Saddam monster? Place your hand upon it. Uh-oh. Galadria gives me, yeah. I have touched Palantieri before. This is different.

not touch this one. There we go. Oh. That's awesome. So is this shit really going down? Palantilly show many visions. Yeah, but I saw the same shit. Some that we'll never come to pass.

It's already come to pass. He scared? To be the only one. Perhaps neither of us have to bear that burden alone any longer. Yeah, come on. I beg of you, Mirio. Stand with me. Show a little.

alongside the elves once more. Oh, okay. I think this is the better episode, this is the best episode so far, by the way. Yeah, they're beating the piss head of each other. They would do it all the time. Don't get too excited, kid, boom. Yeah.

Yeah. Uh-oh. We got you. Uh-oh. Oh, geez. What's that? Oh, there he is. How do he get out?

See, this one is the most Lord of the Rings to me so far. Right in the head. Ooh, in the chest. Nice. Come on, just shoot one of them in the balls. Mama! Don't do it. Don't kill the mom.

Get out of there. I don't like the sad music. Makes me nervous. Sunlight. Almost. No halflings so far. And I'm telling you, I know people love the halflings. I just think that the halflings drug it down last time.

This one is pretty solid. That's all I'm saying. Oh yeah, come on out and get burnt up, dumb dumb. Yeah. What are you got now, dickhead? Oh, I'm still shooting arrows, though. See, that's smart. Can't see shit.

You can't see shit in the woods. You can't, not going to have anything in the sunlight. I cannot stop thinking that if you'd not gone down there. Oh, come on. Duren might have been in that shaft when it... Oh, okay. I'm sorry I lie to you. You were faithful to my friend.

Props. Crops. Crops. Give the man respect. Nice. All of them alive. Nice. Your father must be so relieved.

He shut it down. Mm-mm. The whole vein is to be sealed off. Sometimes I wish I could tell him exactly what I think of him. I never trade words with the old goat again. Take it easy. All right, Dern. You'll be running the ship soon. My father single-handedly sailed to Valinor.

And convinced the vali. Convinced the Valar to join the war and vanquish Morgoth. What might he think if he were watching me? Would he be proud of what I had accomplished with his legacy? The countless ways I'd failed to live on. Ah, come on, man. Yelrand. One night struck me that I would be only too happy to hear any judgment.

Do not waste what time you have left with yours. Dropping knowledge bombs, man. How is it that you and my husband met? I saved him from a hill troll. Two of them. Yes. I was asking Elrond. Then I fear I have no choice but to amend your husband's account.

And lie to you as well. And it was I who saved him. You wouldn't remember your face if you're gazing at a mirror. And I came upon him in the forest. What happened to Elrod, though? He got so serious in his later life. I like this Elrond. Our people believe that when a new dwarf king is crowned,

the voices of all this four people, airs flowing to him, but you. Uh-oh, come on, don't insult him. You need not wait for that day to hear my voice. Forever am I with you, my son? Very nice. I like it. I like this relationship stuff's going on.

I love all of this. I have a message. Oh, so he got out, he was let out. And if we refuse? He's going to attack. This is the most Lord of the Rings that it's felt so far. And it's had time to build. Me, you deserve a nip a mash after what you done.

I don't know. Come off, be it, lad. Mm-hmm. He's got the same shit. Let's compare tattoos. Oh. Do you know what it is? You heard of him.

Sauron. Sauron. You'll say if your strengths, you'll need it. You'll tell you, it's a little ominous. See later? I think you're all a bunch of, idiots and look forward to seeing how you're going to escape the waterfall about to come to your stupid city.

Yeah, they had it, man. They had a shot to start it over. I mean, look, that's the other thing, is that we know how it all goes down. This poor bastard just would have gotten a hold of your son and said, listen, kid, get those rings, you chuck them into the lava. Oh, it's a sign. Oh, no. Is this it?

See you later time right away? As soon as she leaves, the waves coming in. Faithful believes it when the petals of the white tree fall to some idle thing. So call her back. He's still got time. Everyone must decide. We shall be waiting to burst forth as the rising sun. Yeah, they're going to announce.

She's going to come walking out at the, you know, she is. I've decided to personally escort the elf back to Middle Earth. Okay. All right, look. He came around. So, you know, you probably could have done it a couple days ago, but... Your queen has laid bare her intent. Our ships will depart in ten days.

All right, and I like that this guy's on board with it. Who is willing to commit themselves to our Queen Regent's protection? Let's do it, Asildur. Get it together, home boy. I will serve. I got me. Awesome. Great episode. Yeah, man, that was my favorite one so far.

It was intense. It had a lot of, um, I think, obviously, you've got to get invested in those first three episodes to get to this point because of the character development and everything too. And I just, like I said, I don't have anything against the halflings. It's just my least favorite story. And in that last episode, it just weighed it down for me. Well, they weren't in this episode and it moved. Music was cooking.

The idea of is that Sauron, is it not Sauron? the battles alone and it just felt this felt as I said as I was watching this it felt the most like Lord of the Rings out of anything that we've seen so far in this series so I thought it was great man I really did I thought there was a lot of um I thought there was it was it was the most invested I was because I'll be honest going into this I even said to myself I said don't anybody give a shit if I stopped watching this series and not that it was bad it's just kind of bored but I'm glad it didn't because this episode was great and this episode felt like Lord of the Rings.
