Chapter 80: Gandalf and Saruman
After the crew left Shire Village, they returned directly to the Imperial Capital, and the next scene of the four Little Hobbits encountering the Ringwraith and the encounter with Arragon at the Walking Bar will be filmed in the Imperial Capital.
"How did you know they were running out of food?" Lin Haoran looked at Fang Yan with interest, and only Fang Yan in the entire crew noticed this.
"I don't usually wake up early." Fang Yan shrugged his shoulders, "The day before yesterday, when I got up early, I saw them carrying grain from the cellar, and when I passed by, I looked at the cellar and found that there was only a little food in it, and then I confirmed it from a child's mouth with a candy. ”
"Although there are not many spirit stones, but they are enough to last until next year's new wine, it can't be because of the reception of guests that the host's own family can't eat, there is no reason for this."
Lin Haoran nodded, patted Fang Yan's shoulder and didn't say anything more.
In The Lord of the Rings, it takes place around the same time as the four hobbits encounter with the Ringwraith, when Gandalf is imprisoned by Saruman.
Gandalf and Saruman have a name called Maia in the world of the Lord of the Rings, Maia is a sub-god race, but not every Maia has a name, only five Maia came to Middle-earth in human form, namely Saruman in white robes, Gandalf in gray robes, and one brown robe and two blue robes.
By the way, Sauron is also Maia - it's all Maia, and Sauron is melee, so it's understandable that Gandalf used melee combat (covering his face and laughing).
Maia would not have died, but only if they were on the light side, and if they were in the darkness (i.e., Morgoth's side), then they could not be resurrected.
So when Saruman dies, he really turns to ashes, and Gandalf and the Firedemon can be resurrected and added to the white robe after they die together. (Note 1)
The Hobbit encounters the Ringwraith, and it is not difficult to shoot this scene with the Arragon meeting in the bar, the Ringwraith's mount in the first "Lord of the Rings" is the second-ranked horse of Middle-earth blood, but the dialect has been changed here, following the Z-big setting in "Infinite Terror", and changing the Ringwraith's mount to a skeleton horse.
The puppet created with the magic transformation ability of the Tiangong Society is very realistic, and the black-robed ring spirit riding a skeleton horse does not need to add stunts to make people feel the breath of death.
The true identity of the Ringwraith is the king of the Nine Rings assigned to the humans of the Second Age, and after the Fall, he became a minion of Sauron, led by the Witch King of Angmar.
The mounts of the Ringwraiths in the three "Lord of the Rings" are different, the first is horseback riding, and in the Siege of Gondor, the mount is upgraded to a flying serpentine monster - most fans call it a flying dragon, but this creature is not a dragon, but a monster transformed by Sauron in the Third Age.
As for why the first part is a horse behind the horse, krypton gold, you don't have to worry too much about this, Tolkien didn't explain it in the original book, don't people with cars occasionally ride bicycles when they go out?
This plot dialect is going to focus on the confrontation between Gandalf and Saruman.
Gandalf is a gray robe and Saruman is a white robe, and there is a gap in strength between the two, Saruman is the first Maia to come to Middle-earth and transform into a human form.
Each wizard has their own duties, and Gandalf's mission is to bring the One Ring to Mount Doom to be destroyed.
Saruman is the only Maia who has volunteered to go to Middle-earth, and in a sense it is Gandalf who is the pit teammate.
At that time, the goddess of Vera, Waldan (also known as the goddess of the second egg), sent Maia to Middle-earth, and Saruman was the first and only one to go voluntarily, but did not receive the little red flower of the goddess of the second egg.
Gandalf was the third Maia to be ordered to go to Middle-earth, and Gandalf said "I'm not the third," and he sent the Grey-robed Redagast (the wizard in the forest) to the pit, and the third-ranked Gandalf was the last to arrive in Middle-earth.
Before the Battle of the Hobbit's Five Armies, Gandalf's greatest contribution to Middle-earth was actually the tobacco he brought (with a smile).
However, with the exception of Saruman, the other four Maia are on good terms, and Rydagaste is pitted by Gandalf and does not say anything: when he arrives in Middle-earth, he discovers that the door to a new world has been opened to him, and then Rydagast is addicted to animals and plants.
In fact, Gandalf's heart should be very, just imagine that after the "whole army attack", the four teammates are online and seriously make up for the knife, and there is only one auxiliary running area left to say that you will feel the nature, what will you think?
"The Lord of the Rings" or Tolkien did not explain the ending of Redagast until the end, and there is a theory that Redagast has forgotten his identity as Maia in the end.
Ridagast: I'm a blue buff.jpg.
Compared with Ridagast, the white-robed Saruman is an old-fashioned and obedient baby at the level of a scholar, in fact, he is very similar to Zhou Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms - talented but narrow-minded.
He was the first to respond to the call of the Goddess of Eggs to go to Middle-earth, but the Goddess of Eggs turned to Gandalf without even giving a blessing buff.
According to Tolkien's book "The Elven Diamond", the goddess of the two eggs promised Gandalf a reward worth three Maia before agreeing to go to Middle-earth, but then again, Gandalf is indeed worth the price: he is the most knowledgeable of all Maia, and to put it bluntly, a celestial library-level figure.
Therefore, Saruman began to be jealous of Gandalf, he was extremely arrogant, and after arriving in Middle-earth, he also looked down on Radagaste, but at that time, Saruman's essence did not deteriorate, and as soon as he arrived in Middle-earth, he established the Holy White Council and resolved several major crises.
In fact, the relationship between Saruman and Gandalf is easy to understand when translated into officialdom: the two first-in-command and second-in-command who parachuted into the prefecture-level city, the first leader thought that the second-in-command was a threat and monopolized the power, but although the first-in-command was a little overbearing, the GDP of the prefecture-level city soon increased significantly, and then the first-in-command was corrupted and degenerated.
In fact, everyone has a pot, including the goddess of the second egg, but the main reason is that Saruman himself has a bad mentality.
However, if it were a rotten girl to write Saruman and Gandalf, it would probably be a different version.
The scene of Saruman vs. Gandalf in the original book is in the Tower of Isengah, and the venue for the dialect remake is provided by Old Man Bai, a Qianzhang Mage Tower abandoned by the Mage Guild.
Note 1: In the original book, Saruman did some evil in the Charles, and the dullness will directly follow the plot of the movie.
Note 2: There is also an Oxford version of the translation of the goddess of the second egg is Valda, this is a transliteration problem, according to the party, don't care.
