Galadriel’s Ability to See Things Seems to Outclass the Palantiri
Galadriel tells the Company that she cannot see Gandalf from afar unless he is within the borders of Lothlorien. This is an implied limitation on a much more astonishing ability which is never explored in detail, but maybe we can tease out a few things from the text on what exactly
Galadriel can and can’t see, and how and why as well.

The Dark Night of Aragorn’s Confidence After Gandalf’s Fall in Moria
Aragorn has a significant amount of self doubt after Gandalf falls with the Balrog, in contrast to the dynamic, confident leader we see in much of the rest of his story. This hints at aspects of his relationship to Gandalf that aren’t really that explicit in the story, but we can find other bread crumbs....

Why Hasn’t the Tolkien Estate Sold the Rights to Adapt the Silmarillion?
After the “Hunt for Gollum” movie announcement, I notice more than one person asking why the Tolkien Estate hasn’t sold the rights to the Silmarillion yet. It seems like a natural enough question following the death of Christopher Tolkien, but there are still plenty of obstacles to such a move.
Want to know about that atrocious John Boorman LOTR script? Here are my videos on it:
Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhKX7VdMiZU
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbxZU3mVRsc
Part 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7BqeOwPcSE
Part 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHGpbhTKq0w
For good measure, here I talk about JRR Tolkien’s comments on another script he hated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMLLIFb_Pe8
For my (very old) thoughts on how you might adapt the Silmarillion, check this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cliHCmfpj3M

Why Didn’t Sauron Know Where the Shire Was?
Viewer coreyander286 wondered about this, and in the post Peter Jackson era it’s not a strange thing to wonder, but there’s a fairly simple answer.
