Rings of Power

The Rings of Power season finale dropped this week...

I am genuinely at a loss for words for how bad this show has been. It's an insult to Tolkien's legacy 😟

I was told that they've tried to inject modern identity politics into middle earth. When I heard that I started routing for the orcs.

@Tinkles There is certainly a lot of that going on.

@Whodunnit well then I say we fire them into mt doom and be done with it. No amount of time or budget will get it right when you're putting politics into anything

@Tinkles That seems to have been their main aim rather than sticking to the lore, employing good actors, writing believable dialogue, or fleshing out a decent story 😒

Even the CGI is hit and miss.

@Whodunnit I think the best response is a Gimli quotes "it was deliberate" and "bring your pretty face to my axe"
