While we appreciate the attempt to flesh out the thinking process that actually led Celebrimbor to create the Elven rings, these scenes where they dance around the idea do come off a little silly and unnecessary, with unneeded “explanations” like the mithril needing to be in a circle of some form so that the light could something-something. “If only there was some way of doing more with less,” Celebrimbor muses. In related news, Galadriel and an unconscious Halbrand ride to Eregion, where Celebrimbor and Elrond are sadly weighing their options now that the Dwarves have refused them access to their mithril. As we’ll see in a bit, that’s just not who Sauron is at this time, if he ever was that sort of being. We didn’t believe it for a second not just because of the misdirection of making him appear to be Gandalf, but also because thematically, it just doesn’t fit with Tolkien to have Sauron be an addled wanderer who just wants to be good. The Ascetic and the Nomad appear and the three sorceresses pledge their loyalty to him and name him as Sauron. There are no shots of characters talking to each other with their eyes focused on the distance because they’re actually nowhere near each other. It’s one of the areas in which this show actually exceeds the work done on the two trilogies. It all feels very natural and both the effects team and the actors are doing a very good job of making it feel that way. Note how much smaller Nori is under the cloak before the much larger Dweller reveals herself. Just a small aside here to note how well done the forced perspective and scale shots have been in this show when it comes to depicting beings of various sizes. He follows a small cloaked figure through the woods, who shows herself to be Nori before revealing her true form, the icy-eyed sorceress known as The Dweller. He pulls out the apple Nori gave him and remembers her telling him that he’s not a peril, setting up the conclusion of his character arc for the season. Anyone who isn’t an elf or a Númenorean tends to be caked in dirt a lot. If you want to do some little improvement yourself, that's fine.The Stranger is making his way through a wet and mucky Eryn Galen and once again, we find ourselves hoping upon hope that at least some of these characters get a chance to take a bath soon. If I could find comments from the Rooster Teeth staff, then I could improve that. I was really only adding that in because I had used similar text on the History of LGBTQ characters in animated series: 2010s page. (I know little about the history of animation and non-cis/het representation so I'm afraid I'm not well-equipped for the task.) 107.194.158.21 ( talk) 19:50, 24 September 2020 (UTC) Reply I suggest trimming the examples from the paragraph in question and rewriting the paragraph to focus on how non-cis/het media representation impacted the writing in Nomad, preferably with citations of comments from Rooster Teeth staff. As such I'm not entirely sure I see a(n in)direct link between Nomad and other animated shows like Adventure Time, insofar as both shows are (in Nomad's case, apparently) influenced by growing non-cis/het representation in mainstream media.
Not just that, but the examples listed in the paragraph in question are produced by more mainstream studios and/or significantly more popular and renowned than the indie-produced Nomad, which only exhibits strong WLW subtext in comparison to, say, the openly gay relationships in BoJack Horseman or Adventure Time. I noticed that the third paragraph of the page summary rambles on about non-cis/het (LGBTQIA+) representation in other animated shows, from Super Drag to Adventure Time, without fully explaining their relevance to the development or characterization of Nomad of Nowhere.
