So many of the choices made in this show are extremely strong indications that the people who created it DONT EVEN KNOW what LOTR is, what it's about, what it's themes are, what it's trying to say about people and the world and the nature of evil and the nature of our hearts. There is almost a willful disregard for Tolkien's themes.
Like the touching scene with the marginalised victim orc family. That one was so repulsive it turned my stomach. A truly offensive desecration of Tolkien's work.
In the next episode Orc Kid goes to school and gets bullied by other orc boys. Needless to say, Orc Dad and Orc Mom hold a meeting with Orc Principal. People are getting paid for this sh&t
Sauron is supposed to be pure evil, pure hatred. But this show asks, what if maybe he had a sneaky little crush on Galadrial(who's supposed to be married anyways). Great work guys
Looking past the obvious crimes against lore, worldbuilding, and plot consistency, the thing that strikes me the most is that all the characters speak in generic cringeworthy metaphors. It comes across as a pretentious teenager's idea of profound dialogue, and there's basically no regard for each character's -- well, character and cultural background. They all speak in the same manner. The writers obviously have no idea how to write believable fantasy dialogue (or perhaps dialogue in general).
They don't have to be good writers to get a job on the most expensive show of all time. They just had to say the right things and hire actors with the right skin colour and then brag and lecture the whole world about it like the insufferable ideologues they are. Their pretentious, shallow dialogue mirrors the pretentiousness and shallowness of their ideology.
Tolkien Writing Gandalf: "Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends. I have not much hope that Gollum can be cured before he dies, but there is a chance of it. And he is bound up with the fate of the Ring. My heart tells me that he has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before the end; and when that comes, the pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many - yours not least." Rings of Power Writing Gandalf: "IM GOOD."
It's like the show is a perpetual parody of itself. The metaphors are so hilariously cringeworthy that I can't believe they wrote that stuff sincerely.
Orcs having humanity is the only proof you need, from this entire show, that the showrunners and writers have absolutely no understanding of Tolkien's legendarium. I once had a period in my life where I read the entire series at least once every year, the orcs are the absolute corruption of beauty and good. That is their entire point. They are not grey on a scale of black to white, they are black.
@@forrestredd2706tolkiens orcs fuck, have women and children and talk about fleeing the war. All penned by TOLKIEN. you should get your lore straight.
Tolkien was a devout Catholic who presented the first orcs as fallen elves or elves who chose to be corrupted or were forcibly corrupted. I don't remember reading anything in-depth about how that took place. Given Tolkien's beliefs, I have to disagree that orcs represent absolute corruption. Only the corruption of fallen souls, which is reversible in Christian dogma.
i was under the impression that the clowns who wrote this horse manure can't even tell the difference between Lord of the Rings and World of Warcraft. what a load of ass.
Somehow even making a joking about something absurd and dumb they would do is giving them too much credit. You've put more thought into your throwaway youtube comment section joke than they did into their billion dollar TV series.
I like how the writers forgot that even before he created the rings, he could wipe out an entire army of orcs with his sorcery, Sauron was a lieutenant of Morgoth, a Maia, he’s freaking powerful. Why did they make him get defeated like a bitch to an army of orcs?
Yeah Before they killed him when he was talking I was thinking why does this dude seem so pathetic? Like this is souron? Seemed like half the orc army in there didn’t even respect him lol. Like the dude wasn’t scary at all.
"Commodified fantasy takes no risks: it invents nothing, but imitates and trivializes. It proceeds by depriving the old stories of their intellectual and ethical complexity, turning their action to violence, their actors to dolls, and their truth-telling to sentimental platitude. Heroes brandish their swords, lasers, wands, as mechanically as combine harvesters, reaping profits. Profoundly disturbing moral choices are sanitized, made cute, made safe. The passionately conceived idea of the great storytellers are copied, stereotyped, reduced to toys, molded in bright-colored plastic, advertised, sold, broken, junked, replaceable, interchangeable." -Ursula K. LeGuin
After trying to publish 3 novels let me just tell you, the industry WANTS the bland shit. I know loads of young people who write amazingly fresh stories with compelling characters, and we're all struggling to get it out there. Criticism includes that books MUST be short, simple, and easy to follow. Wish me luck because after 2 years of being told "young people won't read something with historical accuracy", I'm close to just uploading 500k words as a webnovel because at least that gets it out there. This industry is straight up brain rot, and young artists, be it painters, musicians and writers, are really struggling to get the novel and fresh things out there. The industry is very openly rejecting it.
Sit and sip iced tea, while they set up cameras, lights, props and powder your face, then pretend to fight, sit and sip while they reset. Sounds scary to me.
Wait wait wait ... do you mean counselling as in ... emotional support/therapy? Not, as in, 'I want someone to help me improve my moves, or work out to be able to sell the physicality' ...
@@givmi_more_w9251I think he’s talking about the lead saying she underwent a sort of ”exposure therapy” (even though I wouldn’t call it that at all), so she wouldn’t automaticaly flinch everytime someone yelled at her. I believe it was because she was easily scared aswell as the roles she usually plays are more soft spoken and vulnerable characters, so she had to rethink how to react, if I remember correctly. So it isn’t as bad as that guy made it sound, but it’s still awkward that it was needed, and written about, so much.
@@givmi_more_w9251Oh yes, exactly the kind of counseling they meant. Yep.

G royally screws up her crusade to get sauron, ends up actually helping him, then lets him walk off, and not only does she not do anything about it, she conceals his presence. And when all this is revealed to the high king, he does absolutely nothing. G is a moron, a coward and a traitor, and gil galad is a simp. what a show.
It's even worse than that because in season 1, Sauron expresses a genuine desire to put the life of evil behind him. I know in Tolkien's lore, he is evil itself and would never give up evil because it's his nature, but the SHOW contradicts that so I'm pulling from what they showed us. Sauron wants to settle in Numenor and become a smith and even resists Strong Woman™ when she tries to persuade him to fight alongside her for the fate of the Southlands. He tells her no multiple times and says he's happy to become a smith and settle down. She circumvents him by getting the queen regent to order him to help by LYING and making up a story in her own mind about him being the rightful king of the Southlands even though he TOLD HER EXPLICITLY that he took the trinket off a dead man. So he goes off to battle and gets a taste for power again and even gets an appetite for revenge when he confronts Adar. All of this causes him to relapse into the old Sauron and become evil again. Season 2 is essentially the writers' attempt to retcon Strong Woman™ being a villain to try and make it seem like Halbrand was acting shady all along. tl;dr Strong Woman™ is like that one "friend" who convinces a recovering alcoholic to drink again, leading them to causing a fatal 5-car accident on the highway.
@@LegendaryDorkKnight No, the intro to the first episode of season 2 literally confirms that Strong Woman is the only reason he goes back to his evil ways. If she hadnt jumped off a boat and randomly met him in the middle of the ocean he wouldve probably just ended up chilling in Numenor. This is the canon of the show lmao.
LOTR and Dune contrast each other so perfectly, if I may oversimplify: Frank Herbert thrived in a moral grey area, but Tolkien had a great divide between pure good and evil. In both stories, it worked well. This show is like a shit fan fiction "what if" these authors switched places and it would make both stories suck.. as we see here. (and I hate giving the showrunners as much credit as this implies, but you get my point. There's no "Frank Herbert" writing this garbage)
Most fan fiction writers think "I write, therefore I'm an author and writer". At one time being a writer or author meant your work was at least accepted by a publisher, but now it just means you self-publish on Amazon or post on Discord and have other sweaty people who can't get a date IRL lusting after some characters. So yeah, this is like a Galadriel/Sauron fan fic because those people also love to ship the least likely characters as well.
@@HotaruGlaive I do dabble in writing fan fiction, but it's mostly a 'oh my God, i hated this aspect of the story, it made no sense to me , I want to reimagine it.' Or 'I like that part, I want to expand on it.' It's an autistic, low-maintenance pasttime that gives me a bit of joy, nothing serious (and which I only engage in if I really care about the work. Which are like ... one or two.). And since English is my second language, writing such stuff in English helps expand my vocabulary and learn how to phrase stuff properly ... or at least, less awkwardly. NEVER EVER would I dare call myself a writer. And I wouldn't dream of publishing my amateurish BS anywhere. I also don't read fan fiction very much, but I avoid fandoms like they are nuclear accident sites. Too much reeing, shilling, and shipping wars ... it sucks the enjoyment right out of it for me. I don't say this as a 'noT aLl faN fICtIoN writErS', just to underline your point how insulting and ridiculous it is for those numbskulls who 'publish' their 'works' into a circlejerking discord/website to call themselves authors. In regards to shipping, yeah. At best, it's a 'dude, those two are so incompatible and have ZERO chemistry, why would you fantasise them being together? ' That sounds exhausting, constantly blocking out the obvious cues that they have NOTHING romantic between them, or frantically clinging to any interaction that shows the characters standing a centimetre closer to each other than normal. Guess I'm lazy, but well-written canon couples (with meaningful romance that serves the story) are so much more enjoyable than constantly trying to justify your oNe tRUe paIrINg. Also, not every story needs romance. I find it bizarre coupling characters in everything you see, and I say this who is a sucker for a good love story. (Lack of Y-chromosome, can't help it.) I heard that some actual authors have retconned their characters into siblings to stop the shipping and bring the focus back onto that what matters, the plot, the themes ... without success, of course. I find that so sad that authors, who certainly care deeply about their work, find themselves forced to change something to stop people defiling it... or stop people ATTACKING them online for not including their totes valid gay romance between those two mortal enemies...
A key element of why both work is because the writers created their world to support their stories. Middle Earth is a fairly black and white realm where Tolkiens ideas of good and evil are tangible forces of nature, woven into the fabric of the world building from the very start. Likewise Herbert created a universe of stagnation and treachery to fit his narrative This is why you basically can't tell the story this show it trying to tell, because the world of Tolkien doesn't function if good and evil are 'subjective', it simply does not fit. Likewise if you tried to tell a fairly standard heroes journey tale within Dune, it would quickly hit a brick wall because that universe is engineered to make such things impossible. You have to break the foundations of either setting to tell these stories
@@HotaruGlaive Admittedly, if they write, they're a writer. If they are a writer and they publish their work, then they're an author. That doesn't mean they're a _good_ one, or even are familiar at all with the nuances of the craft. Same with people who self-publish. They could be excellent or terrible. We shouldn't overgeneralize all writers here just because Amazon is scraping below the bottom of the barrel. Speaking as someone who writes and has studied writing for 40+ years.
If i was a relative of JRR with ANY respect for his work, Simon would be banned from all family events. This guy is TRULY worse than the showrunners. He is a hack who is so bitter for not being 1/1000 of what his grandfather was as a writer, that he is determined to destroy his legacy just to feel better about his talentless self. Christopher would f'in roll in his grave if he knew what his son is doing to his father's work.
Would love to use the lasso of truth on the writers to see why they’ve made such awful decisions and then blamed fans, but they’re probably actually convinced they are in the right

they think it's brilliant, because they are morons
Oh they know their stories and characters are garbage, that's why they had to graft the Lord of Rings franchise onto it. Otherwise nobody would agree to make their show.
They're ideologues. They are talentless hacks who care more about promoting their twisted "diversity" ideology than they do about being outstanding writers and crafting meaningful, quality, emotionally truthful stories that resonate with people.
I sa2 an article from some Gen Z child saying they never cared about LOTR. Never read the books, didn't grow up with the movies and THIS made them appreciate it 🙄 because they "now know the backstory." I don't know what disgusts me the most, them thinking this is a backstory, or the decision to publish an opinion from someone without a shred of a clue of what they're talking about
agree with @@alexreidzero1357. besides, the show is shit not because it disrespects the source material, it's just worthless shit in itself, and the only reason some people have watched it is, in my mind, because of gen Y nostalgia towards LOTR, and need to cling to that feeling for the good old.
You sound like you want to search for the opinion that its bad. But you'll also find the opinion that is good. You're in a bad vicious cycle of looking for validating things are bad without having your own opinion on it
At the end of Peter Jackson’s last Hobbit movie, accompanying the credits, the audience was treated to a gallery of gorgeous sketches of landscapes, architecture, characters and costumes. These included design drawings of the ring, exquisitely rendered, Elven inscriptions and all, faithful to Tolkien’s description of this awesome yet far from ornate object at the center of an epic tale. By contrast, Amazon brings us Elven “rings of power” which look like they emerged from a plastic egg that came out of a gumball machine. Perhaps they were ordered from a cosplay accessory vender on Amazon. The word “cheesy” barely scratches the surface. First, Halibrand has to inform the Elve’s master metal-smith that metals can be alloyed, something he has obviously never heard of. Then Dumblebimbobor , needing only the finest Elven gold and silver to mix with his irreplaceable mithril sample, smelts Galadriel’s brother’s knife, and the steel blade melts at the same temperature as the precious metals of the handle. We now have to assume that the finest Elven blades were made from inferior brittle carbon steel (which still melts at a higher temperature than soft metals), while the swords of the men from the Southland have been alloyed with nickel as Halibrand mentioned, so as to make them tough and hold an edge when tempered. Clearly the men from the Southland were superior metallurgists to the primitive, less sophisticated Elves. Who knew(?), surely not Tolkien. The mthril, so touchy and unstable that it has already blown up the furnace once, is carefully added to the melt by pulling the lump of unrefined ore out of a pouch and tossing it in the crucible, no drying or preheating, with no ill effect. The pour is not carried to the mold to keep it as hot and liquid as possible, but flows down a split stream along long, curving troughs for some reason. We see the tongs of the craftsman twisting silver wires to form one of the rings, a process which has nothing to do with smelting as wires are drawn, not cast. Not too surprising then that the silver wire ring is a different color than the two super-bowl rings, as it is obviously made from a different (non-magical) alloy. Although the chunky zircon on top does have a certain Disney princess “charm” all its own. Critics have pointed out that the Amazon writers don't have copyrights to Gandalf, Hobbits, etc. Hence the nameless "not Gandalf" wizard and proto-hobbit “club-foots” or what have you. I'm guessing the ring designs are also copyrighted. I'm glad those guys from Jackson’s crew are still working and I wonder if they are cringing like much of the audience is.
to be fair Tolkien himself went back and forth on the orcs many times, he dropped the ideas of them being tortured elves or cut from the ground , he decided they should be capable of redemption , but to portray them as having human like family units is the laziest form of bs subversion.
As someone who was born in 2001, i think If these shows had been made in the 80s and 90s, I guarantee the VHS tapes would be burned after people watched them because they were so bad. People know bad writing and poor storytelling when they see it
@@chasehedges6775 it has to first be considered storytelling to even be considered bad storytelling. This was just a series of scenarios where characters had meaningless conversations.
@@dodywidodo9433 exactly, by trying to be diverse and attracting a "bigger" audience, both shows have crapped on their foundations legacies by being almost the opposite of the world's they belong to. In turn the long term fans of both franchises get treated as if we don't exist anymore. There have literally been hundreds of millions of dollars spent between both of these shows, for what? Trash, absolutely garbage that will taint both franchises. Well done Amazon and Disney. Amazon should stick to online shopping and Disney...they need to look at themselves in the mirror hard. But they might be too far gone.
oh lord is that a question.... you want to lose your mind laughing? go actually look up who Rotten Tomatoes considers a professional critic just to pad these numbers. like, we're talking actual hobby bloggers here, some of who actually get away with reviewing it twice. It's hilarious how desperate Amazon has gotten to hide this embarrassment.
1. Rotten tomatoes doesn't seem to be as trustworthy as it used to be. It is likely accepting payments to manipulate the numbers by filtering critics based on goal rating. 2. The film companies have filtered out genuine film reviewers by not providing early review copies to critics who have criticised their tentpoles in the past. So, new critics don't want to risk giving a negative review for fear of being blacklisted which would be a career-ender more or less. 3. Even the critics who should have no fear, like those from the big media houses, are not as good as they used to be. Just like scriptwriters and filmmakers are no longer as good as they used to be, actually. I am starting to think this whole generation, my generation, sucks. The next generation is no better. Shall we put our hopes on the next next generation, boys and girls still in high school right now? Probably not. Maybe the ones that are in preschool right now will be better. I wonder if our generation got ruined by the arrival of smart phones and social media at the wrong time in our growth. 4. Rotten tomatoes ratings for TV shows sucked worse than those for films to begin with. TV show critics were tiers below film critics even a decade ago. It may have got worse.
All the dialogue in the first season was bad. The thing is, the actor that played Elrond, the actors that played young and old Durin, and the actor that played Diza, did everything possible to polish that turd, and making those scenes enjoyable through the sheer force of their charisma. They deserve to be in a better show than this.
Holy shit they’re committed to 5 seasons?!? That’s wild best options they have to to pretend the first 2 seasons didn’t exist and reboot the entire series.
Elindel looks like he’s wearing a stylized hoodie with graphic armour printed on it with some sweat pants. The costumes are so incredibly bad it’s pathetic.
Amazon - "Hmm let's change a masterpiece." Critics - "Why, why would you do something so stupid?" Woke fans "I love Rings of Power, critics are just haters, you will see in 2024 people will love the changes! Get up with the times!!" 2024 people hate the changes. Pandering to an extremely small minority will never win over the majority, nor changing a masterpiece just tp promote propaganda will never win hearts nor minds of anyone... it's stupid, people with common sense see it's stupid! So just stop for crying out loud. We have pompous people with wealth basically destroying art works and masterpieces because they can't create their own. Why create your own when you can buy what others create and then crap all over it, and call it your own, right?
Season 2 is shit and the sky is blue. What else is new. And my god, the elves look like stereotypical fairies instead of the noble badasses they were in the movies.
They really should've just got Peter Jackson to direct this. The Hobbit might have tripped all over itself but it still felt like Middle-earth, this doesn't. It feels like a pale imitation of it.
You're assuming their intention wasn't to put out propaganda slop, all along. They just expected everyone to seal clap, not ask questions, consume product then get excited for next product.
i guess they shot saison 1 and when they made it to E8 with not a second on making the name giving "Rings of Power" and realizing, damn, we do not even have the ring props, the showrunners just said "well, what about a Pizza for lunch, maybe, we get an inspiration for our problem..."
Thanks Movie Cynic for ripping this a new one, it felt good 😂 I really like how you said “not Gandalf Gandalf, not hobbit hobbit, not Sauron Sauron” - it’s a very poignant observation. This is the “Not Lord of the Rings Lord of the Rings”show. It’s time to cancel my Prime subscription 😂
It’s like I have a sister 10 yrs younger trying to explain the movies I made her watch while mom and dad went out to dinner and she only has 10 minutes to explain what we watched
Among a sea of crime against Tolkien, the humanisation of orcs somehow feels like the worst crime. Maybe because I remember not just myself, but the entire movie theater of people audibly distressed at how orcs were created in LOTR, how ruthless they were, how many of them there were. They were the embodiment of evil. And now... I can't even.
I can't believe I'm about to say this, but one thing the Acolyte had going for it is it felt like a story the creators actually wanted to tell. Rings of Power is so muddled, coincidental and dispassionate it feels like the writers are just going through the motions, they have nothing they want to explore or really dig into, they're just kinda being paid to do a job (badly).
If Tolkien was current day California. Everything is so bland and generic, I don't care about anyone in the show, the world doesn't feel real in the slightest, the dialogues are just terrible and cringy. This show is pure garbage.
As for the ogre who worries about his wife and son, we can say that Rankin-Bass' film was a long shot. "Where there's a whip, there's a way. We don't want going to war today! But the lord of the lash says "Nay, nay, nay!"
I tried episode 1... And I didn't even get through it. Was so badly done that it lost my attention about 20 mins in... And I will watch some of the worst barbarian movies from the 80s. That really says something.
I watched the first 3 episodes and got so upset that I watched the first two LOTR extended editions and will watch the Return of the King to cleanse my mind. Trying to create sympathy for orcs is like trying to create sympathy for Nazis. Orcs are pure evil.
I don’t care if the actors are white black or green, the problem is that the show is HORRIBLE, everything, the acting, the story, the clothes, the dialogue, trying so hard to be poetically but is just garbage, is suck a butchering of the lore.
The Orcs are good dudes just trying to support their wives and children. War is the "last thing" an Orc wants and Tolkien did a great job hammering that fact home within his writings
next Amazon project: Reboot of Schindler's List with Schindler being an evil slave owner and the Nazis the misunderstood people, who only want to better the lifes of all those around them...
@@cappy2282 not as mindless as in "no survival instinct" as Tolkien writes about orcs fleeing when outnumbered or loosing almost every battle they are in. And he also writes them as broken and corrupted, under the lash of the pure evil mastermind of Morgoth and almost equally evil Sauron, but they follw those two mostly out of awe and fear, not some fanatism...
I've been sitting, watching and shaking my head. What have they done to these characters? The actual story so beautifully handles all of these concepts and events, and provides all the opportunities you could want to graft a bit of meat onto the bones if you needed to. Instead, let's jumble up and butcher the timeline, insert simplistic plot mechanisms like "Celebrimbor fell for Sauron because someone managed to ambush Elves" and then desperately try to shoehorn evil and conflict into the Three by polluting three of the most incorruptible Elves in history - Galadriel, Elrond and Gil Galad. Even the way they talk about "invading Mordor." "Let's attack from the east. Let's attack from the west." As if Mordor ever had any accessible entrance except the Morannon, other than going around the mountain range that would be the equivalent of walking from the Morannon to the Shire.
It's fascinating when she told High King that Halbrand was Sauron, absolutely zero evidence was requested to support her claim, lol. "Trust me, bro" was more than sufficient.
They even fucked up the Elves ears, ok you can destroy a beloved IP but AT LEAST, have amazing Elven's ears for F sake. Just like it was done in 2001. THENTY TREE YEARS AGO. Those looks like MMA fighters ears.
Tolkien fandom should treat this garbage as PJO fans treat the "Percy Jackson movies" Deny their existence at all costs and gaslight everyone into thinking it never existed.
1:43 They aren't ass movies. And yes, it DOES like to reference them. Leave Sauron to me / Leave Saruman to me During going "he never mentioned you" is a copy of Thorin going "He hever mentioned you" And so forth....
Okay, I get it, Amazon signed for 5 seasons of TRoP. But did they also sign for the Tolkien-wannabe writer team, who don't understand his work in the slightest, nor are they even remotely capable of writing dialogue of comparable quality and/or style? Tolkien was a professor of freaking linguistics. His writing and ideas are not something that can be replicated by writers hired on a quota, and by trying, they just piss people off.
I'm pretty sure people are just watching this shite for content. Its a gold mine! Its so unfortunate that Gen Z's introduction to Tolkien's works is this BS.
I watched a video about Rings of Power that claimed Amazon bought the rights to The Hobbit and the LOTR movies but not the actual Silmarillion book where 99.99% of the lore comes from. So, they're essentially in a position where they have to make up the entirety of the series. But they're not actually talented enough to do that so they used every trope imaginable and identity politics in place of actual storytelling and character development in the hope that the denizens of Twitter would give them money.
I believe this is innacurate. They do have the rights to the Silmarillion and ONLY Silmarillion. This is why they can't have Gandalf in the show and have to hint and wink at it, it is a guarantee that in 5 seasons they will never call the Wizard by the name Gandalf. What they have in terms of the films is distribution rights on their streaming platform but not creative/production rights. There is not and won't be a single character in this show that is not referenced in the Silmarillion.
Even if a fan wrote it the neck beards and youtubeers wont like it, most people like rings of power lookinga t the reviews. If you search for rings of power is trash, this is what you'll get
I watched season 1 chapter 1... after the first 5 minutes I was "This is cool, an adventure show!" By minute 15 I knew I was not going to watch anymore chapters. By the end of the chapter I couldn't believe that they actually spent money in making this community college parody dumpster...
The actress that played Black Lemongrass's woman left the show to go fight for woman's rights in countries where women are oppressed.🙂✌️ She's all...Iran is a better place to be than part of this show.😄
As someone who hasn't read the books, but has seen PJ's trilogy countless times - I must say I am enjoying RoP, and even more so, I am amused by the online vitriolic reaction to it. I do agree with some points, and see many others as relatively valid, and yet somehow, I am enjoying this TV show to some extent. It hits a certain spot for me, and I can't really help it. If that means my taste is god-tier garbage according to online opinion, then I assume that. For those of you that do enjoy this show, just know you're not alone, and it's okay to like it for whatever reason you have.
I remember nothing from Season 1, I thought Theo was just young Isildur, and then they're in the same scene together, Queen Blind dips ducks dodges and dives, there's too many "If you were really my friend..." scenes... I'm sooooo bored. And it's all too damn dark.
My favorite part about this video is where you say "I know you're not watching it, so I'll watch it for you" as i'm going "wait there was a first season already?"
I'm sorry. I got 8:03 in and couldn't even watch your GD recap. This movie sucks so bad that it makes even watching others tearing it down so painful I can't even continue. Jesus Christ
It’s a show not a movie, and it’s not that deep bro. It’s just a bad show. ‘Pain’ is a pretty extreme thing to feel over a bad show. We did have Velma, if you remember. The Game Of Thrones ending I can understand because it was good and ended like trash. But this was bad from the start, and never even seemed like it would be good. It’s like World War Z the movie vs the book. Even the author didn’t care because clearly it wasn’t his story in the movie. Nothing was tarnished or ruined, if anything it just made the original source look even greater because current writers can’t recreate that magic.
Everytime one see a horse one wonders, "Is that the horse who died on set?" Morbid. and What...the...fuck. "Because a rumour's like a songbird...etc." AI writing right there. No human could be that talentless! And FINALLY the Ent wives' eyes! Do they look as if, "One felt as if there was an enormous well behind them, filled up with ages of memory and long, slow, steady thinking; but their surface was sparkling with the present: like sun shimmering on the outer leaves of a vast tree, or on the ripples of a very deep lake." Hmmm...
