And when she set it on the map, you could see it was in the rough location of Mordor. So clearly the Southlanders are right proper ****ed. We'll see how the process goes, but it's very obvious that the orcs are headed that way and are gonna take the place over. We'll see Mount Doom soon enough. |

Standing around making faces at each other isn't dialogue. Beautiful scenery isn't plot. Poorly written lines, delivered poorly, don't pay off. The good thing about this series is that you'll have plenty of time to read The Silmarillion as you watch it.

Got caught up on this last night.
I don't know man, i don't have any complaints lol. I mean, the political speech at the start of one of those episodes was eye roll inducing. But beyond that i've enjoyed it. |

That was a pretty good payoff that episode actually. We certainly know where Mount Doom is now.

I signed up for a month of Amazon to watch that Thursday night game, so I can see this movie for free. Just need someone to strap me to a chair with metal instruments to hold my eyes open a la Clockwork Orange and I'll check it out!
Is it true guadrial smacked a guy in the butt with her sword to demean him? My clockwork orange Rings of Power viewer setup better get here quick I am missing out. |

Shit is hitting it's stride now. I give a shit about some of these characters now. It's amazing that it took this long, and frankly, if they didn't do such a fantastic job on the visuals, I'd have probably been out. But I'm here for it. Not sure if I'm here for the tragic ending they'll all inevitably receive, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Latest episode was really good. Glad to see this improving. They had some really impressive CGI scenes in this episode. They really succeed at showing the potential beauty of Tolkien's world.

Definitely the best episode of the series. First one I've really enjoyed. I wouldn't call it great, but it was good.
Now let's see if they can keep the momentum going for the for the last 2 episodes. |

So I guess that makes Halbrand the King of the Ashes, eh? Because he was announced as their King about 3 minutes before the whole place went 'splodey. "All Hail King Blip! Long may he rei.....oh shit!" |
