I am reserving judgement until I see. That said, this thread has been hating show since before there was a trailer. Right now, 104 Fresh reviews, 20 Rotten, and it seems like the only reviews being highlighted in this thread are the bad ones. Its polling over 80%. It just seems people in this thread already made up their minds and are looking to reinforce the echo chamber.

View attachment 430934

The reviews that came out weeks ago said this show would "literally change the way we view television". Now as aktual reviews are coming out they're saying the complete opposite.

Entertainment Magazine has been doing weeks and months of shilling and yet THEIR VERY OWN ARTICLE SAYS IT'S A CATASTROPHE.

Shill away tho.

LMAO great sign that the guy paying for the thing is preemptively distancing himself from this train wreck weeks before it even airs. Only question now is how horrible this is on a scale, not whether it will be horrible or not.

When did Bezos and his concubine get so old? Just a few years ago they were like mid 50's? Now he looks like he is near 70.

Very hard to get ahold of virgin blood transfusions in the current economic climate.

He sure is distancing himself from it! LOL

His whole family was involved in the production of this piece of shit and were front and center at every Rings premiere.

Bezos has plastered his face over every Rings photo opportunity.

THATS A LOT OF DISTANCE.

Its their story now.
The problem is Tolkien didn't write very much about the Second Age except in very very broad strokes. There's no real narrative, character development, or story to follow. It's simply a series of events with almost no dialogue. Any adaptation, even one that followed Tolkien word for word, would have to invent dialogue and micro events to fill in the blanks.

There's no equivalent to The Children of Hurin in the Second Age unfortunately.
