The mouth of Sauron looks like one of the whispermen from Dr. Who last night. And I think he has the eagle's wings on backwards.

The guy is obviously not a fan of Lord of the Rings and should stay away from reviewing them.

I prefer BrickQueen's.

I prefer The Brick Show, but they do not have the reviews yet. In the review of 79008 he calls Gimli a Hobbit. I do not like that, but, as said, this was the only one that was out.

In the review of 79008 he calls Gimli a Hobbit.

That's just painful. I'm sure they put effort in their videos but can it really be that hard to do at least a minimal amount of research to get the main characters names and species right? Generally, I don't quite get the appeal of video reviews of LEGO sets. Unlike film or videogame reviews, there's no footage to talk about, so what's the point? You usually can't even take a good look at the set's details. They might be useful to show the set functions but that's it, at least in my opinion. *Rant over*

[Alfadas]

yeah, you're right, but in the video you see all the minifigs, and you see more details then in the pictures of the set. so in that perspective, video reviews are cool, atleast cooler than text reviews. and if you do not like reading, you can just watch the video review.

I'm sorry, but I have to say those are some seriously half-a$$ed crap reviews. Why do people even bother covering subjects they are totally unfamilliar with? Just so embarassing to watch.

The other stuff they cover is alright, so maybe they should stick with the yellow fig stuff and leave the licensed subjects to more serious nerds.

Indeed stick a top hat and a Victorian style suit from monster fighters Dracula and a pair of black hands and you have a whisperman! Lucius malfoy minus cape and hair plus top hat makes an excellent doctor simeon! Cool sets though got to love that Gandalf the white!!!!!!!!
