Nothing can come close to the original LOTR trilogy......
I read the trilogy many years ago. I’ve seen the movies. But, I guess I don’t have as much invested in the purity of the fable as a lot do. I enjoy the series as entertainment. If they stopped producing it today I wouldn’t care much. But I will watch each episode as they come out.
It’s effed up. I’ve watched all the episodes so far. Bad writing, bad directing, bad editing. The acting and casting is mediocre. The pacing is so poor that I find myself skipping through the dead spots. I’ll finish the season, but I’m not sure if I’ll give the next season a try. If it weren’t based on Tolkein, I’m sure I wouldn’t.
Well, sorry Junior, but daddy effed it up, big time. Don’t worry though, cause you’ll never have to work a day in your life.
Lets see, Black elves, Interracial dwarf couple, disjointed plots hard to follow. Lame dialog, Harfoots instead of hobbits with black Harfoots speaking with an Irish accent. Boring heart to heart conversations between leading characters. Quit watching it after 4 episodes.
