I just watched part 3 and noticed you opened this one with Sindarin 😂

[markodevaio]

This is by far the best Tolkien channel on YouTube

[garretttekampe]

I'm almost inspired to get transcripts of these written as well as the artwork and make story books for my kids so I can bring this story telling to them. You're my favorite storyteller on YouTube.

[captainidiot]

The artists who created these masterpieces, the actual pictures, are bloody geniuses

[SeraphimKnight]

Gondolin and its history is one of my favorite part of the Silmarillion, I'm excited to hear what you have to say of it :)

[chrispauls]

You bring life to these stories! A master storyteller! Thanks

[davidthetraveler]

Yet another reason why Ulmo is just the best.

[mariacvale]

This is the 3rd time I'm listening to this series (The Lords of Beleriand) and I just delight in your narration Dave! Thank you so much. Sometimes one needs a break and what better than to hear you tell these wonderful stories, as only you can tell them. Thank you!

Amazon should be consulting YOU, when planning and writing the new LOTR series.
Seriously, this is the first time I've heard and really comprehended the awesomeness of the Silmarillion, First age events, etc.
Only now do I think that the first age could be a fantastic series in live action, if done with love and strict adherence to Tolkeins ideals.

[LeeGall]

I literally can’t get enough of your videos!! Definitely the best Tolkien channel on YouTube! I’ve already watched your entire Library of videos at least

[PhiloHomo]

I’m so glad I happened onto this channel.

[bigjoe]

Man these stories are awesome I can't get enough I've been watching all you're previous videos and man I'm hooked these stories would make some amazing movies

[jeffbassett]

I look forward to your videos every week. Thanks so much Rainbow Dave.

[mlebrooks]

Fingon the Awesome is a great epithet.
Also I'm impressed with all the artwork in your videos. The artists are so talented. I bet it takes a long time going through all the pictures but it is fun.

[jandunn]

Just I enjoy your storytelling so much. You bring so much energy and interesting details to the stories. I'm enchanted.

[justinstoll]

Literally would love for you to a detailed breakdown on the entire Tolkien Silmarillion. I'd especially love a detailed story told by you about Numenor now that Amazon has completely botch its potential to depict it.

[MichaelDG]

I am loving the different angles taken by you and your peers among the YouTube Tolienologists!

I’m discovering a whole new appreciation for a legendarium I’ve been studying since 3rd grade.

[MazzD]

It's been a long time since I read the silmarillion. This is a great way to get back into the legendarium. Fairly new to the channel and have been using the playlists to cover as much ground as possible. Great work.
I noticed the sindarin in the beginning of the episode, much love Rianbow Dave ✌️☮️☯️✌️

[willardsteele]

Hello and happy new year. You do a great job. I am an avid Tolkien reader. Your research is thorough and the best among Tolkien content providers. Your Tolkien is the Tolkien channel where I learned something new. And your insight is deep. Your reviews do Tolkien a great service.

[ellengoodman]

Learning so much from you!! A thousand thanks for all the hard work you do to bring us these amazing videos!
