Dead Eagle Joke

MatPat talks about how it's been a while since he discussed Lord of the Rings, bringing up the last theory about how Gandalf wanted the Fellowship to use the Eagles to fly to Mordor, a popular theory. He theorized that the show runners behind its prequel show, the Rings of Power, were so annoyed at the theory that they subjected an eagle to not only death by a Fell Beast, but also is set on fire and crashes into the middle of a battlefield within the first five minutes of the show.
