UPDATED WITH THE ARRIVAL OF SEASON 2
I know a lot of opinions have circulated regarding the series, many of them positive many of them, negative. I believe that there has been a grand mix of both legitimat, valid criticism of the show, and not so legitimate. I believe a lot of people have been dissuaded from even watching the show by the growing social media culture of “hate content”. But at the same time and to be fair, season one did have pacing issues… And even outside of the rings of power, I believe that the entertainment world is starting to get fed up with the “show format”.
Many have gone before in trying to “fix” the show by making it movies. My heart in this project is to change as little about the show as possible, but rather organize them into a movie saga format that maintains exciting pacing and the formula of storytelling that has stood the test of time.
Many awesome people have gone before me in this, and I have depended greatly on their work. Major shout outs to Anjohan and Vranir (and everyone who helped them).
UPDATE SINCE THE ARRIVAL OF SEASON 2
ROP SAGA
“Shadow’s Rise” (Workprint Complete)
- this film follows the main story arch that lead to the creation of the rings, but ends at the eruption of Doom. Runs about 3.5 hours long
- also, FULL credit again to Vranir and Anjohan for their prior work.
“The Harfoot and the Stranger” (WorkPrint Complete)
- this film is aiming to take the combined footage from S01 and S02 following the Harfoots and make one cohesive film. This one should be done soon, depending on how season 2 ends.
“The Lord of Gifts” (Primarily the story of the creation of the rings from S02, in production)
- this film picks up in the fallout of the eruption of doom, transitioning quickly into the events of season 2 with the hopes of seeing the creation of the nine. (We’ll see). This one is definitely subject to change in its shape.
With all of that said, the first film is available upon request. Would love your thoughts and suggestions to it!
