  1. Tolkien used the word goblin in The Hobbit and then later on he changed it to orc the word goblin is derived from I believe the French and he did not like using words that were derived from French so he changed it so it was derived from latin .

  2. lurtz for me is the OG.
    honourable mention to:
    sharku, old leader of a warg rider tribe who delighted in leading raids to kill unarmed villagers, women and children through cutting them down or letting the giant dogs eat any survivors alive.
    lugdush and mauhur, both lieutenants of ugluk who looked at other orcs as inferior, no problem fighting or killing them, and had enough intelligence to distinguish food from hobbits, unlike the orcs from mordor, and they boasted incredible stamina and discipline in their mission, making for a pack of very intimidating, driven, bloodlusting warriors with purpose that would strike down anything in their way.
    vrasku, leader of a raiding party sent out to sew chaos in the mark, burning farms and villages alongside wild men.. he led the company which ambushed and killed an entire group of scouting rohirrim led by prince theodred, who died from his injuries. vrasku was killed in the battle, but he took a prince with him.

  3. I know a lot of fans dislike the use of CGI to make Orcs in The Hobbit films, but Azog looks by far the best Orc character design-wise and the amount of expression he has on his face makes him stand out more compared to others, i think that doing prosthetic work on the actor's face wouldn't have given the same effect. Azog's CG work coupled with Smeagol's CG work is really impressive in these films, for all the excessive use of CGI, they did very well when working on these characters.

  4. Which Orc/Goblin origin was true? All were. It's not an evolutionary tree, it's a couple of humanoid species spawned via mutation/creation by an evil wizard. It's also a bunch of fiction that started off by a WWI veteran making up some kid-fiction of a magical world of a Hobbit that lived in a Hole that took on a life of its own.

  5. You are confused. A bunch of the scenes you edited together include a bunch of works that are in no way vonnected to Tolkiens works and world's.
    I disliked this video for this reason and will not continue to watch more of it. Please consider carefully what you are doing and perhaps curate the content better in the future.
    Amazon has never worked on a Tolkien world or setting. They stole a bunch of names only.

  6. Even though the Hobbit movies are truly awful and Azog didn't appear in that actual story, they did manage to make him look really really great and I loved that the Orcs only spoke with the Black Speech.

  7. Sarumans fighting Ukruk-Hai were almost respectable in a way. They were committed and fierce and even they hated Orcs almost as much as they hated Men. When Aragorn speaks to one of them in Helms Deep they are actually almost nice to him and want to speak with him. "If you want to speak with us then come down! Bring out your king or we will come in and get him!"

  8. The hobbit was a travesty…the whole damn thing…but the orcs were the worst…bolg and azog were so poorly designed….just absolute garbage. Oh lets stick a bunch of metal all over them and staples because we should make them look like frankensteins monster which will make them EVEN moar scary!! BOLG DIDNT NEED ANYTHING ELSE….HES BOLG!! ugh

  9. Rings of power made me die inside. It's horrible i just wish they would stop bringing old story's back if there just going to kill them slowly over however many seasons they want people to suffer two episodes and i was sick same thing happened to wheel of time So sad. Game of thrones messed up too. I don't even want to start on star wars or what they did to dr jones poor indie…

  10. I think Gorbag was far more dangerous and deadly than a Grishnak was.

    And since Lurtz is also in the list, who was purely a film invention, it wouldn't matter if Gorbag was one too (which I unfortunately don't know).

    So he definitely should have belonged here.
