It’s odd how he claims to be near Boomer age but has the entertainment habits and posting style of a twelve year old. Imagine spending your twilight years like that. Yikes.

100% my views & my opinions.
But keep lying to make yourself feel better.
I know far more about Tolkien & his stories than I do about Godzilla, so climb out of that hole you dug now before it gets deeper.

Your opinions about the show that you came up with after you watched the show?
Nope. U didn't watch the show, you are getting your views and opinions of the show from youtubers telling you their opinion of the show.
The only way you can possibly have your own original views and opinions is if you watch the show before you watch any of the YouTubers thoughts on it.

LOL I don’t have to! That’s what reviews are for! I can see the trash scenes with out wasting my time or money on watching the whole show.
I know the characters. I know the lore & the plots for why things happen. JFC you’re a smooth brain npc.

at least i understand that I cant judge the show because I haven't watched it.
not sure why it is so hard for you to admit the same.

I can because (for the 1000th time) I’ve read & own the books, own the movies and have been a fan for decades. Not months, not years. Decades.

one thing everyone (except you perhaps) seems to agree on is that this show is NOT the books.
if you are reviewing the show based off the books that have nothing to do with it your review isn't gonna be very accurate. Tolkien didn't write this show.

Can we talk about the show? Who is the wizard with he eye banner. Who the wizard with the hobbits? Anyone have any theories?

may have better luck on reddit. SEK will attempt to derail any discussion of this actual show. apparently if he doesn't like the show (that he hasn't watched) noone else is allowed to enjoy it or discuss it.
I'm not sure why the mods here continue to allow it.

100% of everything in middle earth, the characters, stories, lore, languages, etc. all came from the mind of one man. To not even attempt to honor his legacy but instead to trash what he created, will receive its due mockery & ridicule.
The beatings will continue until further notice.

As a warning for normal people to show what the rock bottom of being terminally online looks like.

I assumed the wizard with Nori was a blue wizard. Just a random wizard that not much was said about but was sent to help against Sauron. There were two blue wizards but just looking it up, they were both sent at the same time. This other wizard the show is showing seems to have already been there a while and has established power. No idea who he could be. I assume they are just making up another wizard so they can have a Gandalf vs Saruman type thing going on.

Ah yes, our resident fascist calling for canceling people and censoring speech while he actually does the same thing he’s alleging. What a surprise

Have you signed the SaveThe Acolyte petition yet?
I’m talking about how bad this show is. Why the plot makes zero sense. That the characters are wrong in almost every facet. Fans of GoT dunked on the Westeros Express in season 8 and the same light speed travel nonsense shows up here, ignoring time, distance & modes of transportation.
That’s this show!!!!
Whine all you want about me not watching but I’m still right about the plot. That’s not changing whether I see the full show or not.

He's clearly an Istari, and clearly meant to remind us of Gandalf; but Gandalf didn't go East. That's one of his catch-phrases. Plus, this is the 2nd Age, and that goes to the Blue Wizards.
Besides, Cirdan hands Gandalf his Ring when he arrives. So again, not Gandalf in my opinion.
The other guy, I think is the Witch King prior to becoming a Nazgul. Note: he commands witches (hence witch king
), and he sent those witches to find Sauron and help him... this makes him both powerful, and loyal to the cause. That fits the profile for the Witch King, who will be Sauron's second in command and most trusted servant. *It's fine that a mortal is a sorcerer, as the Wise thought the Necromancer was "simply" a human sorcerer. They didn't instantly think it had to be a Maia. That implies that sorcery was indeed a thing.
The Ring he receives will be a reward, immortality in the service of the Dark Lord. Sauron may not tell him of the side effects (blind loyalty without free will, turning into a wraith).

just finished Ep 1. the ending scene looked pretty epic.

It’s only going to get worse. It’s unavoidable with the set up of the first three episodes.
So the "definitive review" of season 2 is some gumbo of dunking on Amazon over the price of and viewership decline of season 1 with speculation about what likely will happen in season 2?
As someone who just isn’t very bright, I guess, I sometimes forget that conjecture and prediction are the same thing as criticism. Whoopsie, me. How embarrassing.
