Admittedly, the Nerd of the Rings guy couldn't actually do the breakdowns without the show, but hear me out.
The Nerd of the Rings does breakdowns that last almost as long as the episodes themselves. They cut out lots of filler like extended fight scenes, montages, and overly long panning shots. You pretty much learn all there is to know about what happens in the episodes and he often notices many things you might have overlooked.
The best part of the breakdowns is how he connects the evens of the show to actual canon lore. I will say, I almost never disagree with his assessments or reactions. If you want to know what I think of the show, he explains it better and more detail than I ever could and we agree like 99% of the time.
Have you watched the breakdowns? Do you think they are good? Do you agree or disagree with his takes on things?
I like to think I have advanced knowledge of Tolkien, but this guy is amazing.
