But I like it the Rings of Power., why? Because the Male Elves are not Long Hair it's Short Hair except the Elven King., also Female Dwarves are Hairless and cleaned Face

It really is superb. Shame about the review bombing haters. I would think they're less stupid if they had actual concerns based in deviations from the books, but I've read it and almost all of the flak this gets is people either misrepresenting the books or getting angry over the show filling in the blanks of the books different than their mind did before.
@@PinnacleNL Lmfao you must be 12. This show is horrendous. Genuinely one of the worst pieces of shit ever made. And I hate how you people are saying that anyone who doesn't like the show is a troll or hater. Somehow we're now "racist" because the writing is dogshit. Tolkien must be turning in his grave. They've completely shit on his work and his legacy. The fact that you ACTUALLY think this show is good and have the audacity to call US stupid, just shows what an idiot you are. You're clearly a kid who's never actually read a good book, if you think something this bad is "superb". You make GTA videos, for god's sake. Also, you're clearly lying. Almost every negative review I've seen here on TH-cam goes deep into all the reasons this show is bad, and all of them make sense, so you're clearly so lazy that you can't even listen to peoples' criticisms. Much like the writers. Watch Nerdrotic's reviews, for example. He goes in-depth about everything awful and nonsensical in this show. Also, if you even had average intelligence you would realize that House of the Dragon has been a massive success, another big fantasy show that everyone thought would be awful. But now everyone loves it because it's actually good. There hasn't been any "review bombing" or "trolling", even though there is way more reason for it after how mad everyone was at the end of season 8. This show is objectively bad. There is almost NOTHING good about it. Everything from the writing, the dialogue, the battle tactics and plot, the pacing, the characters, EVERYTHING is dogshit. Everything you said is just plain stupid.
Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
@Joe Thune I don't care what critics thinks because I don't trust any of them. Are the many more 10 star reviews also trolls or does that thinking go one way? Why should they be above criticism? Critiquing the diversity is perfectly valid because it deviates from what Tolkien wrote. Tolkien's legendarium is not about acknowledging diversity, those messages are fine for other works, but they aren't a part of this work. It is hateful to show this level of disrespect for a man's life work on the anniversary of his death.
It's also hard to get invested because it's so bad, lmao. The only plot I've enjoyed all the way through was the Dwarves with Elrond. And even that isn't great. The rest is just so dull and un-interesting. I absolutely hate Galadriel, she's such a douchebag to everyone. It's hard to care about a character when they're mostly just an asshole. She also has about as much character as a plank of wood.
@@Daemonfacepalm6930 they ruined the whole fictional story. Especially with the casting. I am so glad people are fighting back. I am a black woman and we have NOTHING TO DO WITH EUROPEAN FOLKLORE. Absolutely nothing,forcing yourself into myths and legends that are European is the most selfish and insane thing I've ever seen on TV. Let's not go into how they try to twist and turn the original storyline. What fandom are they gonna destroy next,Harry Potter? Im sure the next Harry Potter will be black and they will call you racist if you disagree. These liberals have gone mad I could not watch the last episode,i was so pissed off by then,i just wanted to scream
@@ariesjae6436 if you enjoy it, that's good... The problem is expectations, people went to this expecting more, fans of the triology & books, it serves less to readers and fantasy fans... Amazon might regret the investment after season 2 ends... They might reduce the budget but I think they'll find a way to end the TV show
It is indeed a shame that the actual plot, the story, is sooooo devoid of reason. Specialy the forging of the elven rings. The interaction with Sauron and Celebrimbor....Jesus...My god! Talk about cringe! That must have been the MOST awkward thing I've EVER seen!🙄 So, over all, 5 stars for the vfx, actors set designers, sound production, music stunts, but alas, 1 star for the plot of the series. F A C T.
I enjoyed the episodes i have seen so far. The adaptions to the Galadriel character was very different to what i imagined, and they have taken significance in developing new characters. I find it best with these TV adaptions to go with the flow, see where the show runners take it, and rate it based on how much i enjoyed it, rather than based on how loyal it stayed to the book.
"I find it best with these TV adaptions to go with the flow, see where the show runners take it, and rate it based on how much i enjoyed it, rather than based on how loyal it stayed to the book."...then it's not an adaption, is it ? to be honest this show at the moment looks like it's an inspired fan fantasy. I've somewhat enjoyed the first 2 episodes so far (the music, the visuals were great, some non-canonical characters are also interesting in terms of seeing how their story will develop) but i had a lot of disappointments as well - for ex. the elves were butchered in my opinion, they didn't give you that sense of being a distinctive race, of having that magical aura about them, they looked ordinary and lacked wisdom; the dialogue was awfull at times, even the main character Galadriel was turned into an annoying brat but tbh the writers didn't even try to make her look relatable and pleasant in these 2 episodes and this is a must in my opinion if you're going to portray her persona different that how Tolkien portrayed her but oh well i guess we'll just have to wait and see...
@Joe Thune What ?! 😂, do you even know what relatable means - "to understand, like, or have sympathy for because of similarities to oneself OR ONE'S OWN EXPERIENCES". Do you mean to tell me that people couldn't relate to Frodo's character for his strong determination & courage beacause he was a hobbit ?! or Sam for his fierce loyalty, responsability & his friendship? in general characters who fight for the GOOD no matter if it's fantasy or superheroes usually need to be relatable to the general audience so as to feel (on an emotional level) their struggle, courage, sacrifice (the audience needs to be emotionally invested to a certain degree)etc. You've mentioned : "She's an elf queen"...funny enough i don't remember this being mentioned in these 2 episodes - even her company of elf warriors addressed her as "Commander !" and not as "My Queen", Elrond as well when he first interacted with her said at one point : "look at you, commander of the northern army, warrior of the wastelands"...and if i remember correctly in one of the trailers when she introduced herself in Numenor she referred to herself as daughter of the Golden House, commander of the armies of Gil-Galad 😂
TROP is the kind of show you expect to get from first time showrunners, who continue to say they respect the lore but don't. When Peter Jackson decided to make the Lord of the Rings everyone in a high level position on the film crew had read the books over and over and loved and respected Tolkien's work. They were always mindful of the thematic content and didn't put any of their baggage into the movies because they loved the mythology as Tolkien wrote it. J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay are NOT fans of Tolkien's work and it shows everywhere throughout this billion dollar dumpster fire. Their intent was to do the exact opposite of what Jackson did. No one in a high level position on this show is a dedicated fan of Middle Earth. The few true experts they hired like Tom Shippey were fired for disagreeing with Payne and McKay and what they were doing to the mythology. They have not respected the thematic material, canon or lore in fact, they have completely disrespected it. The unmitigated gaul of these two amateurs believing THEY know better than Tolkien how to write the second age of Middle Earth have produced a show that is bad across the board. Bad directing, editing, pacing, storytelling, acting, dialogue and generally all aspects of cinema except the CGI, and a billion dollars worth of that SHOULD be decent. If this story had nothing to do with Tolkien it would still SUCK! That they, in their infinite lack of wisdom, decided to dump ALL their PC and Woke baggage into the singularly greatest work of fantasy fiction of all time shows just how clueless they are. They wanted their story to reflect the world we live in today. Just one problem with that boys and girls, no one reads or watches fantasy fiction to be reminded of the world they live in. In fact, it is loved because it provides an ESCAPE from the world we live in today! Middle Earth is a fictional account of an English/Northern European pre-history. There were no black elves, black dwarf women without beards, black Harfoots/Hobbits or black or asian humans because those races did not live in this English/Northern European geographic location! Diversity has to make sense within the story parameters. The showrunners are total "Bad Reboot" untalented, uninspired and unsuccessful Hollywood hacks! The season ending "big reveals were laughable. Everyone knew Meteor Man was Gandalf even though he wasn't due to appear in Middle Earth for another thousand years or so. Everyone knew Halbrand was Sauron from the moment he appeared on screen. Warrior "Guyladriel" did not exist.....ever. Tolkien's Galadriel was so much more powerful than TROP's Guyladriel because she used her intellect and sorceress powers of persuasion to get what she needed. What she didn't need was to be a sword wielding, "Mary Sue/Karen", Zena warrior princess! Bezos must certainly be feeling buyers remorse for having hired Jar Jar Abrams incompetent production team. A billion dollars for a show that could have been great but for the clown car of talentless hacks that were put in charge of it. I hope the other 4 seasons get cancelled before the next 2 years pass. Let this abomination pass into history with all the fanfare accorded an unmarked grave. That's all it deserves. RIP TROP....you suck!
Complete and utter amateur hour at Amazon. You’d like to think $1B is enough to hire qualified people however, it sounds like it was intentionally made bad, so they could launder untold millions?
@@JoshGames08 Surely can! Split it in 3 parts, It would be like watching a 3 hour long movies like Endgame and so on. Never seen a extended cut on screens but I am sure it happens. I dont understand how releasing it on OTT would bring Amazon revenue or how they would make their money back. I am sure theme parks would bring in revenue but maybe big screens is the way to go.
I would highly doubt they continue this past season 2, most people think it's awful, let alone put it on the big screen. To get more people to even watch it on their pre-existing Amazon prime accounts they started offering free treat insensitives.
I have been a huge fan of LOTR film trilogy as well as The Hobbit movies, I haven't read any Tolkien books which is probably a good thing cz this gives me a more open mind when watching this show and it's already been established that this show has deviated or not following the Tolkien books.. So far I love Rings of Power, the pacing was kind of slow at the beginning but it picked up really well after episode 5!! And that final episode was such a twist it blew my mind away!! The only critique I have for this show is their costume designs, for something with a huge budget of 1billion dollars, I have seen better costumes with way less budget than that!! But everything else was perfect, the visuals, the scenery, the characters, storyline and plots, I love it!!
@@hx20games77 it does make sense if you don't follow or use Tolkien's books as a source material.. But that's another thing that I don't like about this show.. Why attached and use Tolkien's world if their not gona stay true to the source material.. It would have been better if they would have just made a different show not related to Tolkien's world at all.. But they wanted to use Tolkien's world cz it's more popular and it has a huge fanbase.. But they ended up pissing off Tolkien's fanbase by not following the source material so in the end it's kind of meaningless..
This all feels so vapid, empty and superficial. After 7 episodes, I can see exactly why this show is so bad. Compare the behind the scenes that came out of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings, watching those is like going on a journey of its own. Here, it just falls flat.
rings of power is brilliant ! emotional and rational in equal measure. intriguing details and people that come from misterious paragraphs of unread books... may be of vital importance to the evolution of middle humanity in this earth. cheers from Rio
I've been reading Tolkien's books for 40 years, I've seen Jackson's great battle movies, and I've seen Season 1 of RoP hundreds of times. The only thing I really don't like about the series, is Galadriel's narcissistic personality and terrible lines. Regarding No. #9 The Númenor Set. They used the lever system to lift the horses into the ships, but they must have also figured out how to shrink the horses, because there is no way to fit over 150 horses and as many soldiers in one of these small ships! They had 500 soldiers to begin with, then 2 ships were blown up (hopefully without any horses). This means they had to load 500 soldiers and horses into 3 ships. It's impossible. These ships are streamlined, narrow and they sit high in the water and the bow is even above the surface at times (which it wouldn't be if the ship was carrying a heavy load). Just saying.
If you watch it as a fantasy inspired by Tolkien then it's OK, I'd keep watching. But if you extected the same care that Peter Jackson showed your going to be disappointed
I wouldn't go that far. Peter Jackson had a whole written trilogy to work with and he still couldn't get it completely right. Arwen taking Frodo to Rivendell, really? This show doesn't have the benefit of a novel written from beginning, middle, and end to work with so people should expect certain things aren't going to be perfect because a lot of the unwritten gaps have to be made up to tie it all together.
@@centurymemes1208 Yup. I would ask anyone to go to a library, find a book with an appendix, and try to create a coherent story from it. Is the show perfect? No, but I think they're doing a pretty good job with what they have to work with. I don't think even Tolkien had a clear idea of what he wanted on every bit of lore that fell outside the scope of LotR and The Hobbit. He constantly changed story elements around in his later writings.
@@netflixandchinchilla yep glad to see someone that doesn’t fanboy slash book purist mindset. gosh i both love the passionate but also hate the fandom for its kkk levels of gatekeeping
@@netflixandchinchilla then why are they doing this show in the first place, if they are so limited, if they don’t even have the rights for the Silmarillion, yeah money and greed
I think it's gonna be short & disappointing as it always is..They create a great movie than it all comes to an end due to lack of profit..Why can't they put all 3 seasons together with finance from all productions like they did with lord of the rings
I know that critics are getting really upset they never finish a movie or seasons when they create one..Like a lot of movies in the past we have't to wait 10 years for the sequel or the next season to arrive. Waisted time if u ask me
Boring meandering show. Also the fight in episode 6 didn’t make any logical sense. This show could of been a lot better with better writing, and leaving the modern politics out.
Jeff Bezos - "I've got 1 billion dollars to splurge, let's feed a starving nation or a couple of nations !" , " Actually no, let's just give it away to make a completely crappy and boring television show with amateur actors and horrible screen writers, and let's bastardize Tolkien's work while we're at it ! " 🙄🤦🏽🤮
Jeez, what a comment section! It seems that _all_ the butthurt basement-dwellers united in a common cause to cry about how much they hate Rings of Power.
It's pretty clear they need to stop doing wire stunts and go back to choreographing interesting scenes. You can't just yank people around on rigs and expect them to be healthy afterwards, it's unfair to stunt people to turn everyone into superheroes crashing through brick walls. It's also visually boring.
So even the guy who created the title text for the show knew about alloys, but Celebrimor didn't.
It is not Tolkien`s Middle-Earth.
But I like it the Rings of Power., why? Because the Male Elves are not Long Hair it's Short Hair except the Elven King., also Female Dwarves are Hairless and cleaned Face
Unlike the Tolkien Middle Earth Movies., Male Elves are Long Hair and Female Dwarves has a Hairy Face hahaha...
It's Bezos' Mordor Empire!
Yeah , It looks better
Gladriel was smitten with Halbrand. " You pulled me back first".
When the elves aré climbing the ice there's 8 of them. Before fighting the trolls there's 7. After the trolls kills many of them there's 9.
A) Someone behind the scenes can't count.
B) Galadriel's so powerfull she múltplirs elves with her greatness.
C) Amazon's delivery is so eficient they managed ti being her More elves just un time

I think you have to recount
So... by 1 billion you mean:
500 mil for advertising
250mil in the bidding war
150 mil for tax evasion/laundering
100 mil for the actual show
The Arda of TRoP was beautiful and believable. The plotline is a fan-fiction quality.
we can only say thanks good, netflix didnt get their hands on LOTR,
imagine getting the writers of Witcher on it 💀💀
Thanks amazon for the 5 intro episodes.
This show is the best I’ve seen. I’m waiting for fridays to see what happens next .

I would think they're less stupid if they had actual concerns based in deviations from the books, but I've read it and almost all of the flak this gets is people either misrepresenting the books or getting angry over the show filling in the blanks of the books different than their mind did before.

41k after 1 month?
Dislikes?
NO, not existed, visually its looking good in most time, but dialogs, acting, story telling is absolute garbage.
This all feels so vapid, empty and superficial. After 7 episodes, I can see exactly why this show is so bad. Compare the behind the scenes that came out of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings, watching those is like going on a journey of its own. Here, it just falls flat.
Thanks
rings of power is brilliant ! emotional and rational in equal measure. intriguing details and people that come from misterious paragraphs of unread books... may be of vital importance to the evolution of middle humanity in this earth. cheers from Rio
Stop lying, it’s pure garbage
Love this show think it's so we'll done
Judging by your atrocious grammar, I’m not the least surprised that you enjoy this tripe?
I've been reading Tolkien's books for 40 years, I've seen Jackson's great battle movies, and I've seen Season 1 of RoP hundreds of times. The only thing I really don't like about the series, is Galadriel's narcissistic personality and terrible lines.
Regarding No. #9 The Númenor Set. They used the lever system to lift the horses into the ships, but they must have also figured out how to shrink the horses, because there is no way to fit over 150 horses and as many soldiers in one of these small ships! They had 500 soldiers to begin with, then 2 ships were blown up (hopefully without any horses). This means they had to load 500 soldiers and horses into 3 ships. It's impossible. These ships are streamlined, narrow and they sit high in the water and the bow is even above the surface at times (which it wouldn't be if the ship was carrying a heavy load). Just saying.
I LOVE!!!! The serie
These are great episodes.
If you watch it as a fantasy inspired by Tolkien then it's OK, I'd keep watching. But if you extected the same care that Peter Jackson showed your going to be disappointed
I wouldn't go that far. Peter Jackson had a whole written trilogy to work with and he still couldn't get it completely right. Arwen taking Frodo to Rivendell, really? This show doesn't have the benefit of a novel written from beginning, middle, and end to work with so people should expect certain things aren't going to be perfect because a lot of the unwritten gaps have to be made up to tie it all together.
@@netflixandchinchilla exactly man. lotr had a novel to have a guide. rings of power is basically got a history book with narrated plot points
@@centurymemes1208 Yup. I would ask anyone to go to a library, find a book with an appendix, and try to create a coherent story from it. Is the show perfect? No, but I think they're doing a pretty good job with what they have to work with. I don't think even Tolkien had a clear idea of what he wanted on every bit of lore that fell outside the scope of LotR and The Hobbit. He constantly changed story elements around in his later writings.
@@netflixandchinchilla yep glad to see someone that doesn’t fanboy slash book purist mindset. gosh i both love the passionate but also hate the fandom for its kkk levels of gatekeeping
@@netflixandchinchilla then why are they doing this show in the first place, if they are so limited, if they don’t even have the rights for the Silmarillion, yeah money and greed
The rings of power 😍
I think it's gonna be short & disappointing as it always is..They create a great movie than it all comes to an end due to lack of profit..Why can't they put all 3 seasons together with finance from all productions like they did with lord of the rings
I know that critics are getting really upset they never finish a movie or seasons when they create one..Like a lot of movies in the past we have't to wait 10 years for the sequel or the next season to arrive. Waisted time if u ask me

a lot use of the word "rich" for a show that looked cheap as dirt.
nuce
Boring meandering show. Also the fight in episode 6 didn’t make any logical sense. This show could of been a lot better with better writing, and leaving the modern politics out.
Jeff Bezos - "I've got 1 billion dollars to splurge, let's feed a starving nation or a couple of nations !" , " Actually no, let's just give it away to make a completely crappy and boring television show with amateur actors and horrible screen writers, and let's bastardize Tolkien's work while we're at it ! " 🙄🤦🏽🤮
He is Sauron in disguise
no, the queen’s armour isn’t feminine at all.
Jeez, what a comment section! It seems that _all_ the butthurt basement-dwellers united in a common cause to cry about how much they hate Rings of Power.
Bad serial
It's pretty clear they need to stop doing wire stunts and go back to choreographing interesting scenes. You can't just yank people around on rigs and expect them to be healthy afterwards, it's unfair to stunt people to turn everyone into superheroes crashing through brick walls. It's also visually boring.

That's not what i wanted
