I personally like the theory that the nameless things came about out of the Discord of Melkor. When the Ainor sung the world into being, the Discord of Melkor birthed the “nameless things.” This would explain how they are older than Sauron, who is almost as old as the world itself.

What if before the destruction of Untumno, the last order Morgoth gave to his Nameless Things was to hide in darkest depths of the world and keep digging the extensive tunnels of Untumno, and when the time comes, they would strike right from under the noses of the their enemies at Dagor Dagorath?

This was really interesting. Showed another layer to Tolkien's lore that I had not known about. Thanks!

The nameless could be reference to the great old ones of mythology from Lovecraft lore the ones that dwell in the darkest realms of forgotten history

I think it's not light and dark, but rather order vs chaos. The nameless things are chaos incarnate after all. It's much like Chaos from the Dragonlance series in that the minions cause serious problems that are indescribable and horrific. It's so dangerous to deal with that both Evil and Good had to fight for their existence to overcome Chaos.

What if Eru created the LOTR universe from an already dead universe, and sealed the monsters from the past universe away so they wouldn't destroy his new creation?

It's amazing how Lovecraft influenced every single author in the 20th century

Imagine that when biblo fell to the abyss in Goblin town he had found himself in the same situation as gandalf in moria surrounded by unspeakable horrors instead of just Gollum.

Sauron is not even close to the most heinous villain in Tolkien lore.

I understand there are few who might agree with this, but I believe we all unestimated Melkor’s understanding or perhaps didn't see it as a logical conclusion. I believe Melkor figured out what the secret fire was: Eru Ilúvatar’s own Soul. So he did not go off into the void looking for the secret fire, he knew where it was. He was making something, possibly several something’s using his own soul as the catalyst and fuel. He was experimenting and the result was the nameless things.

7:02 Great video, but semi-incorrect. While the nameless things could have been secret weapons, many were not. Remember, even Morgoth knew not where Ungoliant originated from, save for the darkness of the Void, and he feared her, perhaps more than any save Eru Iluvatar himself, for she was mightier than Melkor, and hungrier. Darkness incarnate. Of the kind even Morgoth who was Melkor feared for her lack of light. The “unlight” of Ungoliant, whom even the Dark Lord, Lord of the Dark, trembled under.

It would seem that these creatures came out of Melkors creation. It's like these creatures are multi dimensional. They extend into the Warhammer universe as well, Cthulhu types. Creatures who simply exist to ruin and destroy.

You managed to stretch 2 minutes of content into 15 minutes. Congrats

The issue of Gandalf avoiding to talk of them whereas he does a lot about the Balrog seems to said A LOT about the Nameless Things than what it´s properly said of them. Therefore I think they were some of the last things he discussed with Tom Bombadill on that unknown last meeting both gotten before the wizard left Middle-Earth. As Bombadill is himself another type of uncanny and unsolved mystery but of good nature, seems as Gandalf wanted to make him guardian and the proper counterpart against the Nameless Things if by chance they apear outside where they usually dwell. And as Tom has proven so resistant to both the powers of the One Ring and overcame the hideous Barrow Wights, Gandalf kinda hopes the Nameless Things might be something he needs to take a watch over too.

(I don´t think of Gandalf leaving the Middle Earth so easily after knowing that sort of lasting unknown evil within there, furtherlymore as he manage to get rid of a lot of foes before and not just Sauron alone, because Smaug and the Balrog of Moria weren´t part of the initial duties of him, so... why not do something against those Nameless Things outside of the narrator´s knowledge on the Lord of the Rings with the only one mysterious good source on Middle-Earth as it´s Tom Bombadill after all?)
