Season 2 predictions

What zany adventures will Gandalf get up to with Nori Brandyfoot? Will Galadriel remember she has a daughter? Will Míriel who never met Galadriel ever regain her sight?

My prediction is so outlandish and silly that the dullards writing this show may come up with something similar!

I predict the horse galloping back to Isildur is followed by a couple of evil humans and a female Orc, the horse leads them to Isildur who they pull from the wreckage. In his wretched state they are unable to surmise if he is a friend or foe and are ready to leave him for dead, but the female Orc orders them to take Isildur to Adar for questioning.

Isildur spends the entire season in the company of Orcs pretending he is a servant of Adar. Isildur and the female Orc form a bond and Isildur finds himself developing feelings for her, yet Sauron ruins it all by taking control of the Orcs and killing Adar, a short battle ensues in which female Orc dies by Sauron’s blade.

A broken hearted Isildur rides away on his horse, vowing to take revenge on Sauron.

Sauron killed his lost love, that’s why Isildur gets to cut the One Ring from the hand of Sauron! 🤔 But in this show Galadriel will probably do it.

Galahadriel will bite off Sour Ron's finger by mistake. I'll leave you to work out what she was really trying to bite off.

Episode one: Galadriel is lying on the ground in the foetal position being kicked by the entire cast, who take turns.
Episode two: Slow motion shots of each of the harfoots being driven over by wagons again and again.
Episode three: A whole episode of gay sex between Elrond and Durin. They incorporate various objects into their lovemaking.
Episode four: Arondir loses a single arrow and spends one real time hour looking for it.
Episode five: Miriel bumping into things.
Episode six: J D Taint and Dipshit McKay dressed as clowns being hunted down by ravenous pigs.

I’d pay good money to watch episode six!

I want this to be real.

Episode 4 sounds fascinating. Like the Chinese Restaurant episode of Seinfeld.

Will there be a season 2?

Based on how bad season 1 was I would drop it like a hot potato if I was Amazon ...

[–] papamihel (1616) 2 years ago

I believe they already announced it.

[–] leader (1959) 2 years ago

It was already renewed for 5 seasons :(.

[–] asom (6824) 2 years ago

They were announced but it can be canceled at any moment …

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 2 years ago

I think they'll have 8 episodes with season 2 and even less with the following seasons. The Harfoots will mysteriously disappear and never be mentioned again.

[–] TylerAArse (2870) 2 years ago

I don't think that's Gandalf. This is the 2nd age, and I thought Gandalf didn't show up until the 3rd age. There are rumors the Blue Wizards showed up in the 2nd age, so imma go with the premise The Stranger is actually one of them.

[–] Quasimodo (16388) 2 years ago

This one might be Dirty Bertie. Never mind forging the Rings of Power someone needs to invent soap !

[–] asom (6824) 2 years ago

He used the same phrase as Gandalf in lotr: when in doubt use your nose.

Could be misleading and fan service, could be a clear hint …

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

I guess Tolkien never specifically said that Gandalf didn't also get sent to middle earth in the second age on some other assignment. He did say he has gone by many names throughout history.

[–] Bateman (600) 2 years ago

Oh, for the love of... that's it, isn't it? That's what they'll be going with; "well, Tolkien never said Olórin didn't fall from the sky like a meteor during the Second Age and crash straight into a bunch of hobbits, so there!"

Jesus wept.

I predict it will continue to suck and be more interested in pushing social politics very few people wanted than giving people an entertaining series actually based on the books.

[–] [deleted] 2 years ago

I predict that I won't watch it. 3 episodes was enough.

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

Shouldn't Galadriel be married to Celeborn already? She doesn't seem married. Maybe she is married to him, but they will reveal in season 2 that it is just for appearances sake because elves frown upon homosexuality and he was her gay elf bestie, so she agreed to be his beard (or whatever the term is since elves don't grow facial hair)

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 2 years ago

Celeborn: "Tell me where is Gandalf, for I much desire him."

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

Hmm...come to think of it, we never did see Gandalf with a woman...

[–] Kingswood (1260) 2 years ago

That was the Auntie Gandalf of the Third Age …this is the young bi Gandalf of the Second Age.

Get ready for some wild rides in S2.

[–] LoveCatsHateDogs (1935) 2 years ago

Did Tolkien ever specifically write that Gandalf wasn't a raging homosexual?

[–] Kingswood (1260) 2 years ago

EXACTLY

[–] ArnoStrine (57) 2 years ago

Big staff energy no doubt

[–] LetoAtreides (559) 2 years ago

My predictions for season 2.

Poppy will join Gandalf and Nori. She'll be introduced as a possible villain stalking them just like Sam in LOTR.

They will not resist including a Smeagol cameo without naming him. Gandalf and the harfoots will run into him.

Isildur, Bronwyn and stupid kid will found Minas Ithil after fleeing west. It will be Bronwyn's idea and cringe as fuck.

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 2 years ago

That all sounds so daft that it’s likely to happen! I can definitely imagine a Sméagol cameo in later seasons, the showrunners don’t give a crap about the timeline.

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 2 years ago

That would be a stretch even for them. Smeagol didn't find the ring for another 2500 years or so - well into the third age.
