Thinking it’s probably Gandalf

But when he whispered to the fireflies, they died.

also in episode 1 they pointed out the torches were not hot in that cave with the ice troll because of the evil. When the meteor man landed, Nori noted the fire wasn’t hot.

Imagine somebody showing you footage from this 25 years ago and telling you it’s a TV Show. Mind-blowing visuals, they captured Middle Earth pretty well.

maybe they died on accident? He also fell before they died. Gandalf also has a connection with fire yk

hooked

Only issue in episode 1 was a couple choppy editing pieces. But I’m sure they’ve got that sorted

ngl i wish this was even slower

another thing i miss is actually showing the people travelling like the OG trilogy

anyone else catch the bezos cameo?

jeremy jahns a complete dumbass comparing the first 2 hours of a 50 hour show to the first 2 hours of fellowship

Show is pretty decent, curious to see how it goes.

Comparing the first 2 hours of a potentially 40 hours show

To the first 2 hours of a 11hours movies saga

Is it good fr

That and Twitter trying to sabotage it cause they hate Bezos

I should check this out? loved lord of the rings when I was younger

Definitely

It’s crazy you would think this show was making a complete mockery of its source material

It’s funny that all these diehard Tolkien fan pages are enjoying it while other ransoms are saying it’s ruining his work.

Damn some of these shots look like Renaissance paintings brought to life!

Loving this so far.

the visuals are unreal the f***

Review bombing is weirdo behavior

Interesting review.

o yea my bad forgot this is a us based website

I'm sure it'll be buzzing with two additional pages tomorrow amirite

Am I the only one who doesn't like how Galadriel is in the beginning?.. She took down an ice troll herself without looking but in Fellowship of the Ring it took the whole fellowship to take down one troll..

LOL

I think the lamest thing I saw was how effortlessly galladriel took out that troll

Please don't give us an OP Mary sue type main character, even legolas wasn't taking out trolls that easily in fellowship of the ring

That said I like how intense and aggressive they made the troll when he first popped up. Same with the orc later on in the house. They got this savage aggressive quality that let's you know what time it is

so far it's great, a bit slow but still

and it's actually accurate to some events named in the silmarillion i'm surprise i thought they couldnt reference that

only meh point is galadriel swimming all the way back to Middle-Earth
