Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power's Season 2 Trailer Heralds the Rise of a Dark Lord

Gizmodo James Whitbrook Tuesday, 14 May 2024 13:30
  • Unique Points
    • Sauron, the Dark Lord, is revealed in the trailer for Season 2 of 'Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.',
    • Halbrand, played by Charlie Vickers, is revealed as Sauron in the trailer.
    • Several rings are shown in the trailer.

    No Contradictions at Time Of Publication
  • Deception (100%)
    None Found At Time Of Publication
  • Fallacies (95%)
    The author makes several statements about the upcoming season of 'Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' and what it is expected to contain. While there are no explicit fallacies in these statements, there are some instances where the author uses inflammatory rhetoric to generate excitement for the show. For example, when he says 'everything else around him can start falling too.' and 'we get to see a few more of those aforementioned rings.' These statements are not fallacious but they do use emotive language to engage the reader. Additionally, there is an appeal to authority when the author mentions that Sauron is making himself known and that this means chaos in Númenor and the Elf-lands alike.
