Rings of Power Just Keeps LYING About Season 2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- No surprise that JD Payne and Patrick McKay continue to brew the destructive formula that created Season 1 of The Rings of Power -- a little bit of Tolkien, a lot of their own ideas, and the nonstop lie that they actually reading Tolkien for inspiration.

They betray Tolkien, they spit on his legacy, spit in the fans faces! Shame on them! 🫵😡
And, Simon Tolkien is at the front of that line.
dont watch it then, nobody is making you
@@lillired857 i don't. Doesn't mean I am going to stop expressing my opinion.
You've gone off the deep end. Dry off and touch grass
@@lillired857 Since less then a third of those who started watching it, actually finished it. I'd say a lot of people are taking your advice.
Didn't Martin Sheen say, "Accusing the Rings of Power showrunners of malfeasance is like handing out speeding tickets at the Indy 500."
Cancelled Amazon prime and never used my account again since they refused to accept my honest reviews for this shit show. I wonder how many others did the same...... guessing it was quite a few.
I think you can talk all you want, you didn't work on this or pay any salaries so 🤷🏼♂️
Yes, I don't have amazon prime anymore either.
I had the same experience and cancelled as well. With the garbage content that has been spewing out things will shift eventually. When enough people stop supporting garbage
Well I actually cancelled my sub already after the Wheel of Time disaster. Won't ever come back.
They said they have a wizard, because "It would not be Lord of the Rings" without one.
It's evil and disrespectful to take the story and characters that another person made with all of their love and care for years only to change and twist it on purpose because they hate the moral values of the source material.
The only reason they got the ratings and viewership they did was because it was Tolkien. If it didn’t have his name attached it would be even lower ratings and no one watching
Good point.
“go Back to the book” = here be Memberberries.
And remember, that Rotten Tomatoes score has been frozen at 38% since episode 3 or 4 of season 1. It should be even lower 🙄
It will be this time. Look at zhe trajectory of starwars. That is wherd we will end up
I think you might benefit from some sore leave. The culture war will still be raging in you absence, and you'll come back, better prepared to check those bloody rotten tomatoes all over again.
RoP is a Millennial created train wreck
The sad beige treatment 😂
I mean, they can read the feedback all they want, but they already said in a previous interview that it was too late to apply any of it to season two. So...
There's also the small problem of some issues being literally unfixable without hitting the reset button.
Some? Literally all of S1, you mean
I think when they said "back to the books" they meant just borrow a few more familiar faces and names. That's all it is really. They can't make their own original compelling fantasy series so they just use characters and place names from LOTR to thell the fantasy story they always wanted and hope ppl will actually watch from name recognition and nostalgia
Yeah. It's like cheating on a test. They just get what they need to know for the answer on the test... but they just don't get the concept necessary to really understand the subject
Interesting how they think they just have to say it to make it true
Yeah. They've said the lie long enough, that they believe it themselves now.
Weren't they already filming the second season while the first one was airing?? Was anyone honestly expecting them to have listened to any of the criticism?
I remember there was a purge of negative reviews of RoP pretty early on.
So the actual review scores would be even worse.
Another issue with the whole Palantir image: the Palantiri were given to Amandil and Elendil during the reign of Pharazon
Today we are dealing with companies that are past the growth phase and are practically no longer dependent on being accepted by customers. What we are seeing now are companies taking money from other sources (DEI, government, other interest groups) and essentially using their influence to carry out propaganda. Disney is a prime example of this and makes it very clear. The value of these companies no longer lies in offering popular and good products, but in using the reach and influence they previously achieved to spread certain political messages or to re-educate and manipulate customers. We created these monsters that have now turned against us.
They are sales guys. Whatever they say about the show or their writing process is completely unreliable, they’re just saying whatever they think will sell in the moment. This is equally true when they were saying “Back to the book” as when they are now talking about “their vision” and “their story”. They’re just making sales guys noises.
My question is where did the Billion dollars go?! You are gonna watch it? Thank you for taking one for the team!
Agreed! I’d rather watch the reviews 😂
The quote only goes to prove that ROP is bad fan fiction and not a true adaptation of Tolkien's works. The best thing that can be done is not watch it, not review it, let it cost Amazon the billion+ it's going to cost over the five seasons of nobody watching it, not even reviewers.
Men. Please, count The Hobbit too!
You are talking about the RoP crap 😂
Compared to that, TH is a masterpiece.
Yes. True. But that Goblin king scene... with the collapsing levels... just can't forgive it! :)
@@TheOneRingcomThe elf/dwarf romance wasn’t great either. Diminished the importance of the friendship of Gimli and Legolas , and the gift from Galadriel to Gimli.
If they had written a totally different story to the lore, but it had been good, then that's one thing, because most people probably don't know anything outside LotR; unfortunately what they wrote was trash. They didn't stick to the lore and they produced a trerrible show.
Not big enough in scope? What a joke. I have more fun watching the opening scenes in bag end from the first movie than I ever would watching amazons slop show. They are being willfully ignorant. They know exactly what they are doing.
It feels small !
That ist what i noticed.
Big CGI establishing Shots then
actual scenes in small rooms ect .
7:28
They really think they have fans 🤣
Its not a lie, if you believe it
*George Costanza
Tom Bombadil, as Tolkien described him... a man in a pointy hat with a fake beard.
As a Tolkien fan who does not consider myself an expert on his works, yours is one of the few podcasts I trust to educate me.
So glad to hear that. ❤️
its actually not that hard to understand, that you need to honor time and space. if you dont, it looks cheap and not realistic. if you do, its actually a great buff for your story. it should be a given, but in my opinion if you really do respect time and space, thats is so fantastic.
We, we, we. Just like Leslye Headland's Me, me, me when talking about how SHE JUST HAD to make her stupid poorly written idea about Acolyte. Smh... they don't give a crap about Tolkein sadly. It's appalling and they should be embarassed!
Isn't it telling how he has to look over at his boyfriend when he makes the "back to the book" lie as if that's giving him some affirmation while he spews whatever he needs to say to get past the question.
Eowyn made a better stew than Amazon
Very good lol
well not like we didn't figure that it was gonna flop
If they really read what the fans are saying, they'd be announcing a reboot or quitting now.
Thank you for enduring the truama of watching season 2 so we don't have to. I see the same problems with RoP as we're seeing with recent Star Wars shows. They have the hubris to think they can do better than the originators and tell 'their story' and add post-modern sensibilities. Star Wars is about good and evil, not moral grey areas. LoTR is about good and evil, not making good characters bad and making bad characters good. There are other shows with moral relativism that are great (Batman Dark Knight stuff), but that is not these worlds. Just sad watching these great franchises be driven into the ground by people who don't understand them and view everything through the 'me' lense.
Yeah… if only they had a story to tell. Season 1 was not a story, it was barely a bullet list of “things we would like to have in our story”, with no elaboration
Great points, I agree completely
Thanks!
I read that only 37% of those who started the show finished the first season. I was one of those people. There will be no chance I will watch season 2. I would rather read through Tolkien. Which is what I am planning on doing.
You got a new subscriber, sir! Great comment.
Simon Tolkien is a traitor to his grandfather's legacy and should immediately have his inheritance rights and Tolkien estate governing rights revoked. He singlehandedly did the most possible damage to everything his grandfather created.
I saw the first hobbit movie for free, and yeah. Saw one of my favorite books get flayed and used as a decorative cover for some misdirected overblown farce. Thanks Hollywood, I don't want any more 'fantasy' from you. Ever.
I wonder if we'll ever really know where all that money has gone.
Your audio isn't synced with your video. OK at 1:29 it's better
Yeah, I know. Streamyard was glitching badly for me. Did the best I could with the time I had… it was far far worse originally.
@@TheOneRingcom Thanks for the comment back. Thanks for letting me know the problem was Streamyard. Overall do you like that program?
Go back to the book, go back to the book, go back to the book, results in approximately three scenes being book accurate. Their motto should be 'don't leave the book' and they should apply it to every situation.
I agree, this is a big pile of crap
Epic thumbnail!
I willwatch the reviews but Iwill boycot season two of rop., just like wot. I boycott prime
Boycott will be one of primes problems. I am not interested in the garbage. And on this and many other pics Mighty Morfydd power elf has crazy eyes
now theres barrow wights god these hacks, barrow didn't exist yet
Nailed it👍
It’s baffling how shocked you guys seem to still be on the concept of an adaptation. Yes this is their story. Yes, they’ve made that very clear. Yes, they are pulling from Tolins Work. No they are not suggesting that they are better storytellers. Peter Jackson had no interest in placing his ideas in the story because it had already been written from start to finish master fully his challenge was just getting that story to a screen
"Peter Jackson had no interest in placing his ideas in the story because it had already been written from start to finish master fully his challenge was just getting that story to a screen."
No. Jackson not only didn't understand The Lord of the Rings, he made no effort to, which means he believed he understood it. Additionally, Jackson filled the screen with his own ideas about the story, changing characterizations, themes and subtext. The only thing he got right was the names of the characters and places. Claiming "adaptation" isn't a license to do whatever you want with someone else's hard work. The first step is realizing you are a caretaker of that work. It is not your plaything. Jackson doesn't understand Tolkien's work, so naturally he doesn't respect and appreciate it. And because he didn't do that work himself, he doesn't feel responsible for how he conveys it through a different medium.
Wow! The host has wild eyes! Epic!
An kmportang figure in all this is Simon Tolkien, alesser son of higher sires. He is a telentless, jealous, bitter hack of a writer who lived a very priviledged life thanks to his grandfather. He is a despicable man with nothing worth to be told. Thats why all his own novels failed.
I'm not watching. I will, unlike Dumb & Dumber, go back to the book instead.
There is a beautiful movie somewhere in the silmarillion, until then we'll get this trash
I thought you guys where shills for Rings of Power? Or is that another youtube chanel with a similar name?
That's TheOneRing.net -- as a starving student (and when domain names were $70), I only bought Theonering.com in 1999. I've been kicking myself ever since... Been looking into moving to ExploringTolkien.com for a bit now (since that's the name of our podcast). Thanks for listening!
@@TheOneRingcom oh okay! Thank you for all the great stuff on Tolkien and his beloved creation!
This will crash and burn and I’m here for it
Its weird to me that it seems with every fandom they want an exact 1 to 1 of the original when its redone in a adaptation, I understand the anger for personal belief injection but when it comes to going away from the canon story I dont get that. Why bother with an adaptation when you could just read the original if thats the story you want... I personally thought it wasn't bad, not great but definitely not bad
But adaptation doesn't mean doing whatever you want with someone else's hard work.
I don't see many people having issues with the trilogy-movies so that's not the problem.
But a lot of you people are still going to watch the show just to look for something to complain about
That is how they make money.
If you have a subscription to any Entertainment megacorp then you are part of the problem. Why do people keep consuming the megacorp turds then complain about the taste of shit in their mouths. I consumed the first Disney StarWars sequel...it was shit, so I stopped supporting and consuming Disney. After Thor Love and Thunder I did the same.
Megacorps get one chance from me then I move on.
STOP CONSUMING THEIR TURDS AND THEY WILL STOP PRODUCING THEM.
THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE IP.
Me like caps lock. Caps lock destroy puny hoomans.
Boycott season two. Do not hate watch
Go back to the book is ablatant lie.
Even the Hobbit is much better thdn rop. It has lots pf problems bit ig is not total trash
Goodness season 2 hasnt even started. Maybe watch it first then give it a chance? They are focusing now on Sauron which is way more interesting. I will definitely admit if it is bad but I will also admit if if became good.
Being optimistic just seems a bit naive. We've seen this a hundred times already with other shows/games/movies. There's a 1% chance it will improve enough to call it good. At this point it'll be considered a miracle if they make it to "decent".
😍✅
grow up and get over yourself.
Tolkien left so much work undone and still work off limits to use/know.
Silmarillion is unfinish work by Tolkien, matters of lotr and the hobbit were not done as Tolkien wanted.
To whine about anything = Foolish.
Tolkien left his work incomplete and his work usable by all that his son did not stop people using.
His creation IS USABLE YOU TWIT!!!!!
AS TOLKIEN REDID HIS STUFF SO MANY TIMES = NOT HOW HE WANTED IT = DIED BEFORE GETTING THINGS THE WAY HE WANTED.
THUS, AGAIN TO WHINE ABOUT WORK THAT EVEN TOLKIEN WAS AGAINST (NOT IN FULLNESS) = FOOLISH
CELEBRATE THE CONTINUATION OF HIS WORKS NOT DAM IT TO THE POINT WE KILL TOLKIENS WORK BECAUSE NO ONE WANT TO TAKT THE CHANCE
I'm guessing your caps lock key won this battle of wits.
Still can understand why they didn't hire Peter Jackson... All that money for shit..😢
No one wanted to hear their story for decades until they slapped it onto and existing successful one like Lord of The Rings. And now we're back to square one. No one wants this bs.
worst thing I ever seen this show is so bad
