    Yeah, the Balrog has decided that the whole thing is tedious, he wants nothing to do with it all and is having lunch. His mobile phone is switched off. 😂🙄

    It's so awful. If I'd never heard of Tolkien or read his works or seen the Jackson films... this would look shit compared to Shannara Chronicles or Foundation, it has worse dialogue than Wheel of Time, and it has so many storylines (about 7) that it's impossible to do well, even with genius writing. GOT only just managed that for 4 seasons.
    Stunningly stupid choices in the story and its bastardizations, and even the crap they made up is nonsense.
    I hope I live to a ripe old age to see Beren and Luthien done right.

      They will find Radagast's house and they will knock on the door. He will jump off with excitement and shout: "Rad, a guest!".
      They will hear it and think he's saying his name to announce himself.
      Tadaaa

    Durin "The Deathless" was the first Durin and he lived over 2000 years, after his death, EVERY DURIN AFTER was THAT SAME Durin reincarnated into a new body. WHY did they change this and have TWO Durins at once? WHO KNOWS. It's never explained why TWO of the SAME PERSON exist, and unlike all the woke/girlboss reasons Amazon has broken the lore for, there's NO such reasoning here. It's an exercise in pointlessness! ROP is THE WORST show of ALL TIME! Change my mind!

      Durin was not actually reincarnated. The dwarves believes that but it's nit actually true reincarnation. It's just a belief. A wise tale. And it says that.

    They literally had no idea what to do with Isildur. If they had actually made him much older and had him be a strong warrior along with his brother it would have made more sense. He could have been proving his worth all this time, but they screwed him up.
    Also, there was no reason to have the entire Isildur death copout. Literally nothing comes of it except his sister betraying her father and putting tension between her and their father.
    Now, its not impossible that Isildur left Numenor sometimes during the war against Sauron. I don't think the books explicitly say it. Elendil of course was not a mere ship captain but a lord. I wonder if this is implying sometime in the past he was kicked out for whatever reason.
    Also, notice how OUT OF NOWHERE they introduce that Elendil has another son, Anarion? They do this with Durin IV having a brother, too. This is how they will introduce Celebrian. She'll just show up with NO MENTION of her existing prior.

    • @mcusta
      @mcusta Месяц назад +3

      I liked how Elendil explained to his daughter that Anarion is his son. You'd think she kind of already knew that since he's her own brother 😆

      the better thing to do its to focus the story in one area first, maybe start with establishing the lore and map via focusing the story first maybe on the present elves in Lindon while sprinkling some backstory. VIa plot they can slowly introduce related stories like the dwarves, man, and then Eregion. end season one with that Celembrimbor is planning to make the rings with advise from "friend". then season 2 is about the rings being distributed. but fk the lore i guess

    We all know what an insulting abomination this is, but I can't get over how slow and boring it is. Nothing. Happens. Absolutely. Nothing. Temu Gandalf looks for stars and a stick and a brain for twenty hours of screen time. Isildur sulks, gets lost, and has a meet not-cute. Elendil simps.

    I have rarely seen such a stupid series. My friends and I were either bored to death or laughed hysterically. At best, this series is a parody. It is a mystery to me how someone can turn such a brilliant literary source into such laughable nonsense. This nonsense has nothing to do with Tolkien. It is so incredibly badly written and altogether tasteless and silly.

Couldnt Sauron just get down from the cliff and take the ring from her? Also how lucky she was that the other elfs were just passing by... How? I mean wtf is going on in this show?

    What could possibly be the point of galadriel faking out a sauron? Teasing him with the ring? Is she a child? When's the critics says that this is written by children for childish characters. I believe that's the case here.

    So.... they changed go-go-gadget-galadriel out of her armour and into a dress... while all still being dirty and wearing their plastic "battle armour"? When did they do this, was she carrying around a dress the whole time? Or don't tell me.. It's Elrond's dress
    But they go through all the trouble to change her outfit, but don't bother washing her face?

    Maybe people say that all the time now, but the amount of deception all these reviews force outburst out of me really makes me wanna cry for real. My eyes are tired sore and tears are drying on the sides.
    I really used to look forward to fantasy to make me wonder over a more beautiful and terrible world all at the same time where magic was overcoming the biggest fears and all of this was characterized and molded into something great. But maybe all this is just the end of imagination, childhood, some porn over sex era thing, idk, it makes me all very sad right now.
    And Sorry, I'm not on the diversity-gutted bandwagon nor I was overthrown by some lore or timeline changes even tho sticking to characters that just play house fake-clumsily hinting and toying around their respective clunkier renewed paraphernalia isn't the pay-off we needed at all, but it's really the lack of imagination and the soapy pace and the administrative-heavy showy contempt of these content machines just throwing the sweets we liked in some other bad wraps and the essence isn't even there anymore, all dried up.
    And really the alchemy aspect of delving into Meta-Sauron and the Rings effect had me riding for a minute a month ago, but then it stalled in stupid motives, shaky circling decision making and equally bad actions. Like we have nothing but more empty fan-service hamster rattling and stalling to nowhere east where they'll cut a finger all over again. All these stand-offs are all so retarded morals and forceful emotions.
    The props they bought off are all washed clean off, the grit of anything doesn't seem or sense or feel anything at all. It's a clean shave with no purpose.
    P.S.1: I have real big scale corporate financial money laundering and tax evasion suspicion and second-guess.
    LOTR P.S.2: I think all the rights they didn't have and all the lack of Silmarillion is really the mythology that lacks, the depth doesn't work here, reverse effect of depth so poorly done doesn't work at ALL. I stop here.
