My Favorite Villain Trope
I watched The Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim. I don't think its a very good movie. To paraphrase my friend Veronica, its emotional beats rely on you having fond memories of the Peter Jackson films while not really having interrogated them as pieces of art. The movie is at its best when it isn't trying to be that and is instead its own thing, and I'd like to share my favorite part of that: the dynamic between our main villain and his subordinates. Full spoilers for War of the Rohirrim from here on out. It's on Max if you want to watch it.
