Just so you guys know this story has almost nothing to do with Tolkien’s books. I’m very shocked to see any support for this show here. I mean the original teaser on YouTube currently has 131K thumbs up compared to 1.9MILLION thumbs down. That is 15:1 ratio!!!
This show is nothing but woke racial/gender propaganda trash. I’ll stick with my books on this… 2020’s woke culture can’t take those away.

As someone who has read the Lord of the Rings many times and the Silmarillion thrice, I enjoy watching this show partly because I don’t know what will happen. Maybe it will be good, maybe it will be bad. I sure don’t know, and I’m pretty sure two million people who just watched a trailer don’t know either. However, I do know that anyone complaining about this show without first watching it should perhaps be reacquainted with the word prejudice : an unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand or without knowledge, thought, or reason.

As an obvious fan you should want Tolkien’s actual story.
If they wanted to something like this who cares… that is their prerogative… but don’t call it Lord of the Rings. Using that name is the only reason anyone is watching this. I wanted a good epic story actually based on the writings of Tolkien. Not their stupid agenda rammed down my throat.
If you watch it I hope you enjoy it!

Oh so sorry guys, never mind. I didn’t realize this was woke trash. My bad. If I had know the teaser had a bad YouTube ratio I wouldn’t have watched.

Now your getting it. Good for you.
