Innovations unveiled in recent days by the Seattle-based tech titan included a delivery van computer system to shave time off deliveries by its speed-obsessed logistics network
I found it boring and overwrought on its own merits. And of course it butchers the Tolkein source material. The way they bend over backwards to get the characters to repeat lines from the Peter Jackson trilogy is embarrassing, and their lame attempts at origin stories like “how Gandalf got his staff” are also embarrassing (and that one was a literal shaggydog story to boot). I liked the actor they got for Tom Bombadil but again, making him into a spirit guide for Gandalf was a cliche and butchers the source material.
Not OP, but to me the first season kind of hurt to watch. Super poor pacing, bad acting, lack of connection to the characters. The second season picked up a bit and was at least somewhat entertaining because Sauron put on a great performance and carried every scene he was in, but thats just my two cents.
I loved rings of power. It’s so good! Was it not entertaining for you?
