(satire)
Is the an article from The Bee?
From the reviews I’ve seen on tube the Rings is fan written Woke crap.
Could have been great but the show runners are minor Hollywood stooges hoping to please their liberal master.
As a devot Tolkien fan I hope it continues it’s Hindenburg crash and burn.
There’s a ton of highly polished junk cinema these days. Looks great and has lots of stuff happening every second but the soul of it is empty and there’s just no “there” there.
POC’s “ who wanted a place in European folkloral history”
Who?
And how exactly would they have earned it?
They have their own histories.
As a LOTR fan, I won’t watch this degradation of a tremendous work. If that crashes the world, TFB.
“People of Color who wanted a place in European folkloral history”
But wait! Europe had no “people of color”. So isn’t “People of Color” trying to horn in on EUROPEAN folkloral history just - wait for it - CULTURAL APPROPRIATION?????
Why don’t they stick to their own people’s folkloral history, hmmmm?????
Well....in order to help save the planet maybe i’ll put it on to use as a sleep aid.
Occam’s Razor: It’s a crapy show.
“The Rings of Power bet is universally praised by critics as a sprawling ode to diversity“
It’s SUPPOSED to be frikin’ ENTERTAINMENT! Fail!
So it’s going to be the failure of “Rings” (whatever the hell that is) that will trigger the global financial meltdown. Not the profligate spending over the past 4 decades, or the war on fossil fuels-green new deal, or having China being the manufacturer to the world, or any of the myriad of neo-con/neo-lib fantasy ideas that will destroy the worlds economy. It will be some woke rip off of a once good story book that does it.
These people need to place the bong on the table and just back away.
“Watch our crap, or the world economy dies!!!” Like losing a billion dollars will destroy a trillion-dollar company.
If Amazon is the most important company in the world, doesn’t the world deserve an economic depression?
Bwaaa ha ha ha
So watch our rubbish inclusive diverse sophomore film project or we’re all going to die.
Was there really an oitvry from black people for black elves and hobbitts? Why not Mongolian or Chinese hobbits and elves?
So...
If I don’t buy into a TeeVee series loaded with annoying PC Krappe, I’m responsible for destroying the world via starvation and nuclear war?
...guess I better buy some!
They’re confusing democracy with Libtardism again
Apparently, Amazon has hit it out of the park with Thursday Night Football.
Not sure about the math actually turning into positive revenue.
Cost $1.2 plus production costs
divided by 15 games broadcast, week one and week 12 (Thanksgiving are on NBC) = $80 million per game
Average of $12 million streams* divided by $80 million = $66.66 cost per viewer per week.
Are they really getting that per viewer business bump?
I watched the first game at a sports bar and a few minutes of another game on streaming (you cannot do anything else on a tablet while streaming).
Like me, I would think most who are streaming already have Amazon Prime so they are not gaining additional revenue there.
* streams are per computers, tablet & phone streaming the game. Multiple people could be watching.
Amazon Thursday night viewership higher in Week 4
by Paulsen 3 weeks ago
Thursday Night Football [Thursday, September 29, 2022] ratings posted an uptick over the previous week, with local over-the-air simulcasts making up a smaller percentage of the audience.
Dolphins-Bengals averaged a 5.7 rating and 11.72 million viewers on the latest edition of Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime (13.4M including additional data not tracked by Nielsen), a figure that includes 531,000 viewers on local over-the-air affiliates in the home markets. The over-the-air audience was easily the smallest of the season, falling below 1.18 million the previous week and 1.17 million for the season debut in Week 2.
On Amazon alone, the game averaged around 11.19 million — up from the previous week (9.85M) and if still short of the premiere (11.87M).
Viewership for the Bengals’ win jumped 37% from Jaguars-Bengals on NFL Network last year, with the audience rising even higher in the key young adult demographics — 54% in adults 25-54 (from 4.06M to 6.27M), 67% in 18-49 (from 3.59M to 6.00M) and 95% in 18-34 (from 1.41M to 2.75M). So far this season, Amazon’s Thursday night audience is up 100% from last year in 18-34.
Keep in mind the first three Thursday night games last season aired exclusively on NFL Network, with the first FOX simulcast coming in Week 5.
Through Thursday, Amazon now owns three of the nine highest ratings in 18-34 this season (21 total telecasts), more than any other NFL broadcaster.
operative words for failure: “ode to diversity”. Folks are just getting tired of having diversity crammed down their throats in every movie and commercial.
It’s the dogs J.B., they just won’t eat it...
