'The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power' Showrunner Explains How Show Will Change Sauron And Declares That He "Is The Hero Of...
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power showrunner JD Payne provided more details on what viewers can expect from the upcoming second season and revealed that the show will depict Sauron believing he "is the hero of his own story."
That can be said for many, many villains. Doesn't mean it's deep or significant.
I get so tired of these bozos.
Imagine if someone did a "Hitler is the hero of his own story." I'd say Satan, but they actually like Satan being the hero.
So Sauron is Lord Business
Melkor wanted to be the hero of his own story as well
Paradise lost already did that. If you aren’t the hero of your own story, then you must hate yourself.
They kind of did that already in DC with Lucifer Morningstar but it was less he was a 'hero' more his role was a punisher for those that sinned which is a more interesting take that rather than being evil that wanted to destroy the world he was the jailer tasked with punishing the evil.
Villians can usually fall into two categories, those that believe they are righteous despite the actions they take thinking it's the only way to save everyone and those only there for personal gratification and enrichment. Just saying 'thinks of himself as a Hero' isn't deep and isn't new. It just shows how beginner level your writing is.
I don't know how common a belief it is exactly, but I suspect many antisemites would be right there with you. I've seen a lot of people who are uncompromisingly critical of jews and "the powers that be" in general, who also express that we're responsible for letting our societies reach their current state.
There may not be much we can do individually in the face of such a massive machine, but it's generally understood that we're all tacitly accepting an unacceptable state of affairs simply by choosing to remain safe and comfortable in our homes while that state of affairs persists.
I actually prefer that interpretation as it makes satanists look even dumber that they actually dammed themselves when if they truly wished to serve Satan, they'd be lawbringers and justicars lol.
Feds are the real Satanists, always egging people on to do things they shouldn't be doing.
BNHA just ended and Shigaraki Tomura (an actually complex villain unlike Sauron) said "villains need a hero of their own" in one of last chapters, and series is a mid shonen with kids as target audience
these people really think their audience are as stupid, or more, as they are (which is probably true honestly)
Mind you, they also showed that the person who most looked up to and idolized him was someone who knew him as a person, not as an idea. Also the fact that they showed society changing by having the same old lady who ignored said villain when he was a child in need and a huge thene of the series is incremental generational change rather than one-and-done pivotal everything-is-different-now moments (look at All Might publiclysefeating AFO, for instance)... you might be selling it a bit short.
true, Spinner had a great conclusion too, and i'm only underselling it because the final chapter felt like it lacked clarification, hence all the memes surrounding the ending
Hitler was the hero of his own story, do a show about that.
the greatest story never told
I was just watching Berlin Olympics clips last night. What a contrast to the modern, faggy French Olympics.
"Make America Great Again."
They just can't help themselves.
In the show, Numenor was absolutely packed with black and brown folks including the queen, except for a single scene where there's a Trump rally with a speaker raging about elves and 100% of the crowd was white guys. They're not subtle at all.
Just, no. No, no, no.
That is a direct quote from Sauron's boss/mentor/etc. And on his ultimate weapon (the Ring) he engraved:
Sure, he really wants to heal and rehabilitate things.
Sauron: The Greatest Story Never Told
If you want to see an actually good analysis of Sauron's perspective and hear the story of his descent this video does a great job of it.
I heard about if the lamp of your eye is dark how great is that darkness in you then.
Now for something actually good- if you live near a theater that takes part in the Flashback Cinema program, they're going to do the Lord of the Rings trilogy (Extended Edition) over the course of three weeks, starting August 31.
Is that... an attempt at a beard?
Cant believe this dumpster fire is still being funded.. its communism. Good shows are being used to fund bad shows.

Claiming that jews are aligned with evil
A communist in Boston was a jew, thus: race war now.
Sure thing.
