The One Ring Explained

"The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot make: not real new things of its own."

It (might) only turn hobbits invisible because it makes their natural stealth more powerful. Sort of like if in dnd it doubles (or octuples) your proficiencies but doesn’t give you new ones

Damn I'm here from after watching the amazing series

he sounds like "nerd of the rings" but more adult🤷‍♂️

Great video. Just one thing, the 7 and the 9 are also greater rings. There are many lesser rings.

"...in the hands of men, ever the corruptible species..."

*Amazon sweating nervously"

Someone should write a love story between Sauron and his ring.

Great video and explanation. Love the background music too, what is it?

“All shall love me and despair…”

Sigh…..

great video !

Let me explain it for you...
Heresy.
Done.

I thought Sauron couldn't control the wearers of the three elven rings, because he wasn't directly involved in their creation. Celebrimbor made them on his own.

Prefer this to the Amazon Series.

Maximizing that Metadata.

Too early...about 7 years too early.

I dont understand why destroying the ring killed Sauron though. Or did it? I thought it was just a ring, not like... his life force I guess.

Is that Tom Bombadil?

If only Amazon watched this video before writing the dog water they produced

I can see the show got it all wrong then

SHIIIIIEEEEEEEET. DEM RANGZ OF POWAW REALLY DO BE BUSSIN DOUGH!

Q.1: Is the book "Simalirion" explaining about creating of the rings and times before TLOR trilogy &times before the Hobbit?
Q.2: The "White City", is this Belgrade due to its position & historic events (Beo-Grad / White-City)?

here I was thinking the rings of power was about a revenge plot gone awry 🙃

Turns out this video could have been a lot shorter than it was.

Took me a bit to sift through the impressive library of music on incompetech but I finally found the background song from both of the LoTR videos! It's "Angevin B" by Kevin MacLeod for anyone that was curious

the show is amazing omh

here's my explanation: khm khm crap. thank you.

The question is WHY does the magic fade all of a sudden? What's the reason and what has sparked this change?

Well this aged like wine

Wow dude, this video is better than the series 👏🏼

this is FAR better than the actual show.

those hacks at amazon should have at the very least watched this video to understand the lore.

TIL: if you slow down to 0.75x it plays at normal speed

Brilliant

That summed things up nicely tbf, nice job

Cgp sees the future

After watching the series finale only three rings were made which were for the elves so who makes the rings for the dwarfs and men?

I am wondering how many people know about the Bored of the Rings book... I loved it so much, it is funny and cute.

How was this made 7 years ago ?

Amazon done ***** up.

I see what you did there Grey.

That was super nice. Thanks.

Rings of Power explained - seven years ago... How about you release new content more regularly instead of farming on something old.

Marsh bre!

Power to you if you came here after watching Amazon rings of power 😂

7 yrs? huh

Welp, now we see this get destroyed awfully efficiently by the people who tried "Putting their modern twists" on it.

7 years, and thats the best they could do? Evil really can't create anything, cant it?

I read the books (also silmarillion and unfinished tales), but I still don’t understand why elves left the middle earth
