Even though I don’t expect this thread to lead anywhere, I’ll start this one. I thought it would be better towards the members that don’t want to hear the negative remarks about ROP, to do it in a separate thread. i’ll move my remark here.
I don't mean to bring back the ROP hate-train, but apparently this is how they reveal Mordor in the last episode. By using an animated text transition. Holy shit. Not good. They could've done it in plenty of different ways. And at least some would've certainly been better. Like, in the actual context of the film. Not in a text overlay. Even having Adar say it, while generic and reused as much, it would've been better imo. The way they did is what I'd expect from a B movie or something that doesn't take itself seriously.
Ideally, you'd do it in such a subtle way that you don't even need to have the guy ask what the new name of the land is. It's so obviously 4th wall breaking that I think the whole interaction has no place in the episode.
Anyway, I'm putting way too much focus on something this minor. But I think it's emblematic.
