I liked it. At least the first two episodes. Am I the odd one out. I will stick with it. Until it becomes worse. But I have a feeling, it is watchable. It was enjoyable.

They needed the backstory brought to TV. How it began. Yes they changed Galadriel's character to make it easier. Otherwise they're adding far more actors into it, and telling far more story. It probably should have been a film. But not after the Hobbit. Much worse. They have added/changed a few things to make telling that story easier. It is trying to give a beginning. Is it dreadful. Has it adversely changed the lore? Not in opinion. Not yet. It's easier in opinion to understand where it's going and why. But it has yet to get there and by that time I'd hate to guess.

I have watched it twice now, those two episodes. I sat through it, wanting more. Sorry. I know where fans are coming from as well. It has been a few years of god awful shit, and productions really messing with the lore, and really fucking things up. That anger is there at so much TV, and film right now. Especially since they went all political for the sheer dumb sake of it.

But there was still enough story here to want it showing it. I want to know what happened even in the variance. Unlike on other series I have stopped watching, won't watch, and really hated.

I hope my words don't bite me and they don't completely trash it by ending. But come on, it had moments that were actually really good. There were plenty that were entertaining and felt in genre, lore, and in theme.

Not an Amazon shill hated Wheel of Time. That had more wrong than right despite it being in genre.

Yes, I think after its successful opening I am not the only person to have shared that sentiment. But I understand the rage.

The original LOTR is my favourite trilogy of all time. It added a few things into it too. But was so beautiful.

I didn't like the Hobbit albeit its start. Far too much was changed. But the CGI I hated more.

This series presently I have enjoyed the opening. Those orcs aren't CGI. The troll looked menacing like the original film. Despite its easier takedown from girlpower United. I understand what is trying to be provided with Galadriel's change, it needs a main rather than so many more. I didn't find it overly woke either, rather incorporating culture into today's climate. Yea it comes off a bit, but it didn't make me blink. Although cringe at the title suggested as leader of the 5 armies. Whatever.

They also mucked up. Okay her brother has a dagger/short sword in the opening realm. But she has to relinquish hers on returning?

I hope my words don't bite me by the time it's through. Yes I'm a purist and I have been the first to anger at things like GOT. Hell call me an odd one out but apart from the lackluster story, not as ominous, I am enjoying the casting, except god she's awful, annoying, bratty, and dialogue much more in the House of Dragons.

When it was the Foundation I didn't even bother. I watched the episode you're suggesting, it was good, as well as others, but it's what they've done to the characters and the pretext. I am not continuing with The Wheel of Time.

Here there is room for a little more interpretation. The story is a larger backstory and arc. But agreed perhaps within clause, and enough to draw eyre from the purists, but personally I haven't experienced it yet. Although who knows by ending.

NO, when someone makes the most ambitious movie experience in decades, one does not simply ride the cash cow of Free domain.

I dont even like the Peter Jackson movies. But as a movie buff , Unironically, those are some of the best made films you have access to. If you cant meet up the height of it, why waste time? If you cant have breath taking , scene after breath taking scene like the climax that is the Jackson version, Why even bother?

Its a waste of time, money, attention.

They couldnt do it better, they arent doing it really different, this series has no reason to be, other than to finance the drugs and pedophilia of Hollywood.

AND BTW EVERYONE WAS WHITE AS TO NOT HAVE RACISM BE TOO REAL.

You're an idiot. I couldn't think of anything better to see. We have the Hobbit, we have the Lord of the Rings. We now have a beginning TV series.

Did you get dropped on your head? Obviously you did. You're far worse than a troll, you're stupid, and it requires a real feat of having no intellect whatsoever.

The story is completely marketable, and absolutely watchable. But you don't want to know what happened, because why can't they just tell the same story again.
