In this episode of Critique or Cynicism, we analyze Galadriel’s portrayal in Amazon’s billion-dollar Lord of the Rings series, The Rings of Power. Is Galadriel yet another Mary Sue to plague the creative landscape? Is she reasonably skilled for how she is established? Is she just unlikable? Let’s discuss.
