I cancelled my Amazon prescription. They cancel The Peripheral and then make this rubbish. I don’t care about the casting so much as the terrible writing and directing.
It starts with the sentence, "We're going to improve on Tolkien." That's how you bury yourself that deep and get it so wrong. And that was an actually quote from one of the actors. The show runners and the writers are arrogant and immature, and that oozes from every crevasse of this show.
I agree with pretty much everything you say except one part, the part about penguins in Africa. Only because there are penguins in Africa, so that caught me a little off guard.
It's funny how you mention the heavy metal song (02:50), "The Last Battle of Damrod," because if you remember, that was a major promotional element before this season started. They made such a big deal of it. And yet as it played out, that troll was nothing very much at all. Quick appearance early in the season, then forgotten about until the battle. And that? Zero gravitas in his presence, just a semi okay action sequence that was over very quickly. Why the song then? And why promote it so much? Well, with nothing much else of note within this season, I guess that was all they had?
That opening shot- you can clearly tell where the set and the green screen are at. Where the heck did all that Money go? It's so bad in so many ways =\
You need to do more research rather than just making accusations. Tolkien’s estate only gave Amazon access to the 3 Lord of the Rings books, and the hobbit. Amazon had to create the character halbrand because Tolkien’s estate wouldn’t let them have Annatar in season 1 since Sauron’s elf from isn’t mentioned by name in return of the king. You need to blame who is really responsible. Tolkien’s estate wanted a show about the 2nd age but wouldn’t let them use the silmarillion. Also the cgi isn’t bad, but I guess hater is gonna hate
That's not true. I agree what they have rights to is a bit convoluted, but they do have rights to the making of the rings of power from the 2nd age, just not the rest of the 2nd age and the rest of The Silmarillion. They don't have rights to Gandalf and Hobbits, which is why the show has not-Gandalf and Harfoots (not hobbits!). If they are willing to play games with the Tolkien Estate like that, then you know they won't respect the Lore.
I will never watch a single episode of this show ever. You don't mess with Tolkien's work.
If audience are bailing on the show,then cancel
What’s the point of the show if people aren’t watching 🤷♂️
@@TheBritishBrothersOfficial except people are watching, and you are profitting from spreading biased bullshit
@@naruto-kun-ub6yz I guess u love and this nonsense then ?
@@naruto-kun-ub6yzokay

Still refuse to ever let it be on a screen in front of me
I'm waiting for the "twist" of this ork leader turni g out to be Galadriel's husband :D
Morfydd Clark would do her career a favor if she can find a *BEST SEASON EVER* moment to subtly distance herself from this trainwreck
terrible actress. nothing will erase her SauRRRRons and MoRRRRRdors. Ever.
Simon Tolkien hates Tolkien, and is advising these halfwits.
If the whole audience hate your show and don't wanna watch it THEN THAT'S A WAKE UP CALL TO CANCEL IT ENTIRELY!
Lol, you still watching this show?! I couldn't go pass trough episode 1 of season two 😂
He's basically hate watching it
More like Rags of Diarrhea.

Disagreement: You called this "fan-service."
No fans were serviced by this show - aside from the middle fingers shoved in their faces.
You must understand that they change it so they can win awards. I think it would be nice as a love triangle with Sauron, Galadriel, and Elrond.
The hair cuts are vomit inducing.
@cheeks7050 yeah I know right

I'm so excited that tomorrow is finale night. I won't watch it but I can't wait for the review videos to come out.
Rings of power is an absolute shit show, visually it looks pretty good but the wigs, the armour, the writing is just so bad
I enjoy the sets. All i can say is
I don't care about that show it's most expensive tv show ever made but look terrible story is so boring i didn't bother to watch either
Here, have some whine
Why loosing your time criticizing a show with so hate , don't watch it, period
Amazon criticized fans for being bigoted BEFORE S1E1 streamed. If they hate the fans so much, why make this and why talk to the fans at all?
@@Banzai51did Amazon do any of those things
Cope basement dwellers. No book to movie/tv series is going to be anything like the lore. Or is it because there are black elves and dwarves.
