They wont be able to get from where they are now to the war of the last alliance in 5 seasons at this pace without it being way too rushed and really badly played out. Which isnt surprising. The entire show has been badly played out since season 1 ep1
There is no best episode in this tripe. Plus, the criticism of Adar's army is justified. Do legions of orc just magically appear because we sure is af haven't seen any development there. Appears you're trying to make bad writing acceptable.
@@scorpio_9810 Well it’s ridiculous to think each episode is equal in terms of quality, you can take it as the ‘least terrible’ episode if you’d rather. I’m not trying to justify poor writing, but a common criticism was that it didn’t seem believable for Adar to act with just around 50-100 orcs, and many wondered why the budget wasn’t spent to increase their numbers. Now, with more patience, we see those numbers have materialised. Granted, they could have done a better job showing the arrival of the other legions, that’s a valid critique. However, in the context of this episode, it’s a relatively minor issue. They’re preparing for an attack, so it makes sense that the orcs would begin gathering here as ordered.
@@Willakimbo_ , the biggest writing problem is, that the elves in Eregion are so dumb that they don't notice that a huge orc army is gathering on their door steps! 😉
@@Willakimbo_, yup! Annatron, as I have re-named this devious character, must've fogged the brains of all elves in Eregion. Maybe, he sneaks mushrooms into their soups and tells them that they have just bad dreams 😉 It's so annoying for those who love good story telling! The pacing is also totally off, as you have actually pointed out. The show-runners wasted so much time! They should have left out the wizard mystery box and the Harfoots completely, since they have nothing whatsoever to do with the making of the rings, the fall of Numenor and the eventual war of the elves and the surviving Numenorians against Sauron, which ends when Isildur separates Sauron from his ring. There is no room for Harfoots and wizards in this epic tale - even if Tolkien had mentioned these creatures somewhere - which he hasn't. If breaking the so-called lore would at least lead to some good story telling! But it doesn't! They break the lore without gaining anything.
Very well done. You’re one of the few that gives this mess a decent review. Most of all the others are just pushing political agendas. Which is ironic because that’s what they blame the show of doing 😄 Bravo !
The show is complete garbage. Waited my whole life to see the 2nd age on film and they don't follow the lore at all and basically destroy Tolkiens vision. This isn't Tolkien it's modern agenda bs. It's just bad on all levels, acting, writing, everything about it. Every character including sauron make the dumbest decisions one after another. Nothing ever happens. 90 percent of the show is characters standing around arguing about things and not ever doing anything about it. Or the things they actually do are off screen. No sense of time. Can't tell it takes weeks for something to happen. It's like it's just a day when it actually took months. Or the opposite. What takes a day seems like a week. Elrond getting back to Lindon before the orc army getting to eregion is ridiculous. Durin goes back and forth from kazad dum to eregion multiple times but it seems like he's doing it so fast he's teleworking. Just horrible time management. Talking and talking and talking. It's so boring and again... it's a complete blasphemy of Tolkiens writing and lore. It deserves to be canceled. Period. If you're a true fan of lotr and Tolkiens works you'd feel the same. Horrible show in every way. Even the sets are small and unimpressive looking. Costumes look literally like cosplay. Every single thing is awful. I'm glad it's failing. Hopefully Amazon sells the rights to a platform that'll do it properly.

Lets call him Bom Tombadill.
@@Caositus Absolutely, that’s more like it!

@@sabineb.5616 Yeah the ineptitude of characters in this show is something else, I’m assuming they’ll put it down as Sauron magic!
