I hereby solemnly swear not to respond to CP3 and OM unless it is 1) to yell bingo or 2) to remind CP3 that, unlike his lord and savior OML who actually is able to hold off on watching a show he thinks is an abomination and talks trash about, he supports the show and is actually adding to it's success but somehow fails to realize that.

It would be super nice if some people from the other threads would take a long break from this thread.

This is going to eventually kill this board and this site as thoughtful people go elsewhere.

Oh. I though that was a review he was quoting.

The reviews are really mixed.

PLEASE DON'T BE AS frickING BAD AS WHEEL OF TIME. Every "creative liberty" they took with that series was rubbing their face in shite.

Thats all I got. See you guys in a bit.

The people that run the site can ban people from different boards, is that not possible with different threads? If not what’s the purpose of this official thread because it’s just going to be the same nonsense meant for another board.

I’m a sucker for a narrative given while flying over a map.

Everyone needs to turn off their lights. This is filmed/produced in a way that assumes we all have top shelf tvs.

I'm giving it a chance, but I won't be 'contributing to its success.'

But then, I don't contribute to the success of stuff I like either.

OK. I will now post stuff with spoilers of the first two episodes. STOP IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPOILERS





It took some getting used to, but I really enjoyed the Harfoots. In episode 2, I really loved the way that "Meteor Man," who I think is clearly a wizard, is developed. I can't wait to see him in Episode 3. Nori Brandyfoot is a great character.

I found tho whole Galadriel and the ship to Valinor thing rather tedious. The ship at the end ... is it Numenorean? I think that this is a way to introduce Numenor to us in Episode 3.

My other question: Is the monster devastating the Southlands a balrog? The dwarves have apparently already found mithril -- have they awakened Durin's Bane yet?

Not sure why, but it looks like The Hobbit more than the Lord of the Rings movies.

Just from a visual standpoint

Half this board is committed to loving this show, no matter what.

The other half to hating it, no matter what.

I am waiting until the season is over, to gauge reactions.

Same with House of Dragons, or whatever it's called

If Elrond is Gay, I am not even going to entertain.

The obviously bad guy elf was a villain in Spartacus, which is funny.
