I like to think that they succeeded, going to the easterlings stirring up rebellion and preventing their full might from descending upon the west

Altar and Pallando
They went to the east and south. Not much is known about them and they likely failed in their tasks like all the istari except Gandalf

He became distracted by the plants and animals of middle earth instead of focusing on his greater purpose. To the point where he became neglectful of the people's of middle earth

To think, Amazon couldâve done something with these two instead of making that dredge of a tv show they claim people are racist for not liking.

I hate it when people make dumb comments like this. I didn't like the show and have never been called racist, if that's at the forefront of your mind it must be for a reason

u/EgoSenatus Jan 02 '23
Articles like this paint the people who disliked the show as racist trolls. It makes no effort to talk about what was actually said, besides a vague quote from Elon Musk, which isnât even cited. It only concerns itself with applauding people for fighting a straw man racism, and as a result of the poor journalism and the poor (or cleaver depending on how you look at it) response from Amazon, many look to people who didnât care for the show and see racism.
Iâm sure somewhere out there in the void there are some racist LOTR fans that hate the show for having a black woman in it, but the news and Amazon make no effort in differentiating between those people (or even proving they exist) and the people that dislike the show due to its slipshod writing, poor acting, and the fact that it seems like the show runners maybe only read the cliff notes for Lord of the Rings.

u/Mortiis07 Jan 02 '23
Erm yeah, that article is about calling out the people who made racist comments about the cast. Why would you have a problem with racists being opposed?
1
u/EgoSenatus Jan 02 '23
Because itâs done so very poorly and on a mass scale, meaning that actual criticism of the show fell on deaf ears at Amazon.

u/TorontoDavid Jan 02 '23
The story is about the reponse to racism. Everyone can and should call out racism, regardless if they enjoy the show or not.

u/EgoSenatus Jan 02 '23
Iâm not saying people shouldnât, but the way in which it was done is sloppy and counterproductive. I know highschoolers that wrote more astute articles.

u/TorontoDavid Jan 02 '23
Even if itâs sloppy - it still captures the reality of racism and its response. Thatâs the key point - there was racism.

u/EgoSenatus Jan 02 '23
Where? Where was the racism? I want a citation to specific instances. This pathetic excuse for journalism theyâre doing is akin to putting out a kitchen fire with water- it doesnât do anything besides maybe making the fire worse.

u/TorontoDavid Jan 02 '23
Do you want NBC to link to specific words/phrases?
The LotR cast sent a message in response to the racism.
The article gave summaries of the racism that precipitated the solidarity.

Exactly. I wouldâve loved to see a show about eastern or southern middle earth. Amazon wanted âcreative libertyâ and those two regions of the world were much more diverse than the west and Tolkien only mentions them in passing, meaning they could almost do whatever they wanted with them, but for some reason they chose to focus on the region of middle earth that Tolkien spent a large majority of his time describing, and then seemingly half ignore that description.

Those are he 2 ruzes Gandalf mentions when Bilbo asks who is in the order of the wizards, though Gandalf forgot their names. So go look their names up

I believe they went East to fight Sauron or got distracted. They have cool cloak colors if your favorite color is blue.

So would the rest of us, but it's not for us to know.
For shits and giggles however, just think of them as the CIA in the middle east. Accurate enough.

They're really just placeholders created because Saruman's throwaway line about "the rods of the five wizards" implies the existence of two more besides himself, Gandalf, and Radagast. Semi-canon sources name them Alatar and Pallando.
They went into the far East. Tolkien went back and forth on what became of them. Sometimes he said that they failed in their mission, either being turned to evil like Saruman or getting distracted like Radagast. Other times he'd say they succeeded, fomenting rebellions against Sauron in his own lands, and if it hadn't been for them, Sauron could have conquered everything east of the Sea years earlier.
Since Tolkien never definitively says whether they ever went home to Valinor or not, I like to think that they're still here, just kind of hanging out and doing good works. Fred Rogers was probably one of them in disguise.
