      Even the amazing Peter Jackson films departed from Tolkien's work in some big ways but it was always honest. They made Aragorn reluctant to rule to help with the kind of character arc most movie goers like. But they never meddled to inject their own messages (like rings of power making numenor full of trump rallies) and agendas into it.

    Honestly this was a pretty amazing non-canon story, they made it almost fit perfectly into the narrative as an explanation of what was going on in mordor prior to the hobbit/fellowship timeline. That talion and celebrimbor's efforts had delayed sauron's plans by a number of years but both eventually fell to the dark lord as the story reached the start of lotr almost gave reason to why bilbo or gollum never got found by the eye when using the ring too. It basically used important characters well and made it work with the established lore thats all rings of power the show had to do but sticking to the given story was too much for their ego and they had so much more room to play with then this did. Hell some of the orc generals you could get had more personality then some characters in the show.

      The man sacrificed everything, including his soul, to protect a world that no longer held anyone he loved within it. If we want to extrapolate his situation with a deeper understanding of Tolkien lore, the fact that he fell body and soul to darkness in the end means he doesnt really know whether he would share the same fate as men of the light would. For all he knew he was sacrificing any chance of seeing his wife and son in whatever lay beyond death.
      My head Canon is that Eru himself stepped in at the moment of Talion's true death, and personally ripped his soul back from the darkness. No other man, and possibly no other living being of the light, had sacrificed so much and for so long to protect Eru's creation. Dude deserved a reward.
      Personally, Talion's story is Canon to me, because his story is just so damn good.

      When elves die, they actually turn to spirits. Their spirit are immortal, and several who died actually returned either reincarnated in babies or just in new bodies after a while.

      Although Sauron knew that Men were easier to sway, he sought to bring the Elves into his service, as they were far more powerful. By about SA 1500, Sauron put on a fair visage and called himself Annatar, the "Lord of Gifts". The Unfinished Tales tells us that Annatar assumed the guise of an emissary of the Valar "anticipating the Istari".[16] In other words, he said that he was a Maia who had been sent from Valinor had once been in the service of the Valar Aulë.

    If there was every a live action series about any lord of the rings that deserves to be created it’s shadow of Mordor and this gripping story of war and justice; just imagine the scenes we could see with todays cgi

    I'm not sure it would have happened exactly like this. Most likely, Sauron sent his most mighty and feared Nazgul to the north, to found his own kingdom and de-stablise that of the dunedain and descendents of numenor. Although Angmar ultimately didn't last, this Nazgul achieved that goal. This probably saw him remain highest in Saurons estimation and his already significant powers of dark sorcery were strengthened over time by the Dark Lord, until we saw the strongest version of the Witch King, at the siege of Gondor and at the Pelennor fields. Sauron wasn't the one who named him the Witch King of Angmar - it was those who fought and opposed him in the wars against Angmar.

    This was a better made fan fic of Tolkien's work than Rings of Power will ever be.

    Once you get around the idea of stuff like Nazgul, trolls, dragons, and orcs.. it's essentially just another story of medieval warfare between different clans of people.

      Well yeah, that's what any story on a grand scale is, when you get rid of all the things that make it unique. Star Wars? Well once you get around the idea of blasters, spaceships, the force, or rebelling against an evil empire it's just another warfare story between different clans of people.
