Hobo Wizard and female Frodo is really boring.
What? I find both of them fascinating. I thought the long bit on the ship in Episode 1 was boring, with Galadriel taking forever to decide not to go to Valinor, but the rest has not been boring. Did you really find Khazad-dum boring?

they left out the Kinslayings, which are pretty fricking important in this story.
No, they aren't. They are important to the story that Tolkien wrote.
They are not important to this TV series.

I wanted a better prologue as well, but unfortunately they can't. Too much is in the silmarillion which they can't touch.
I actually like the black dwarf character a lot. Humorous and fits in. Arondir is stiff, sticks out too much. Hobbits are meh. I think numenor will be good.

Episode two was also pretty solid. I can see hardcore fans being upset.
So far the first two episodes beat out HotD for me

This seems like reverse racism. We’re you not going to like him because he was black?

It should have been epic as all frick, but it was really calm, never showed Feanor himself, and lasted for three seconds. I don't see how they could show the Two Trees and not do the Oath of Feanor justice.
OML brings up such valid points and others just want to argue with him.

No, everyone was complaining about this casting. I was skeptical too, but I think she's great. It can be done, but you just gotta have the right people.

There were multiple kinslayings
Why is it that The Silmarillion has never begun to approach the popularity of The Hobbit or of The Lord of the Rings?
It's because the First Age is depressing, that's why.
Amazon is not going to make money off Tolkien nerds. They need to have 20 million people watching this show. The story of the kinslayings is way too complicated and depressing to be a part of this TV show, in which elves must simply be regarded as "the good guys."

Ladies and gentlemen you just outed yourself. No matter what they do anything is possible as long as we can get 20 million people to watch it. frick whatever we have to do in between to get there. SMFH
They failed before they even started with that attitude.

Pretty decent so far. The acting is good, the sets are well done, and we got through all the character introductions. They better start pushing the plot forward in the next episode or it’ll get boring really fast.

Could they show that if they didn’t have the right to the Silmarillion?
