"Other villains might try to find your weakness and poke at it. Sauron does something different where he tries to find what your strength is," Payne says. "The image of the eye is really appropriate, because Sauron sees you. He sees the best version of who you want to be, and then he's able to take your own desires for good and twist them to bring about his own evil ends."

in regards to sauron, from entertainment weekly ( source : x )

to the person sending messages to EVERYONE blogging about trop about how amazon is problematic: i already knew this. i already watch other amazon shows. i watched good omens and the legend of vox machina. i don’t see anyone calling for mass boycott for those, which are popular on tumblr, or the boys or league of our own. all those shows are amazon shows with big fandoms. i don’t see anyone pressuring those fandoms to boycott.

just admit you’re simply not hyped for this show because you don’t like the lore changes and move on. ffs.

#trop#also haven't seen much about netflix hiring an AI manager for $900 000 during the strikes#it may be unrelated to writing but still. they're not paying their writers well but are listing that kind of salary for AI jobs#i truly don't think that any other streaming service treats their workers better and i support all the strikes#but when the trop backlash was huge i was watching a league of their own and it was odd to see the online response to it#it was two worlds of like 'don't watch amazon cos lotr!' and 'support league of their own!!'#plus if you go outside of tumblr you'll see the nature of the backlash to the show was mostly racism and sexism#they don't gaf about boycotting amazon or supporting their workers at all it's just an endless stream of 'tolkien gone woke!'#i personally have 0 issue with the lore changes because i played shadow of mordor and that game is fairly popular and didn't get much heat

Random TROP Sauron scenes linked to bookverse succession of events because I have nothing better to do

Disclaimer: will use quotes solely from The Silmarillion, because I don't wanna be here all day.

I. His interactions with Elendil, of all people

It'll make sense in just a bit. Let's dive into the bookverse, fast-forward to *after* the Downfall of Númenor (SA 3319), ~110 years or so after the Realms in Exile had been established in Middle-earth, with Elendil as high king. In this passage we're in the last year of The War Of The Last Alliance against Sauron (SA 3441):

Then Gil-galad and Elendil passed into Mordor and encompassed the stronghold of Sauron; and they laid siege to it for seven years, and suffered grievous loss by fire and by the darts and bolts of the Enemy, and Sauron sent many sorties against them. There in the valley of Gorgoroth Anárion son of Elendil was slain, and many others. But at the last the siege was so strait that Sauron himself came forth; and he wrestled with Gil-galad and Elendil, and they both were slain, and the sword of Elendil broke under him as he fell. But Sauron also was thrown down, and with the hilt-shard of Narsil Isildur cut the Ruling Ring from the hand of Sauron and took it for his own.

"Peter referred to sort of the eventual look as the Drowned Galadriel so it's almost like she was an underwater spirit." - Cate Blanchett

so like do we think she took on the "drowned form" to play with his emotions since he pulled her from the sea and saved her life because... 👀
