Re: Well, I seriously LOVE the Lord of the Rings show....
I know it's only 2 eps so far but I'm totally in.

I find all the characters and stories so far very watchable and interesting and the none of the "world" seems off to me.

I'm not a fan of the original books or Films, I found them to be mostly boring and at best dry.

Game of Thrones Prequel: Meh + It feels very confined to this one story which isn't that compelling so far.

You got your shit bassackwards bro. I couldn't even get through 20 min of it, too fucking boring.

What is it about the show that you define as "Woke" and "Propaganda"?

Because I'm pretty conservative but I haven't felt molested by any agenda with this show.

Hinting at Elrond and the dwarf being gay, super never-wrong strong woman lead, a troll beats 8-10 elf warriors but she demolishes it with ease and then the bad elf men bail on her. The idiotic diversity quotas, the black elf being the only capable one as all the others die.

It's woke garbage. It's also simply bad acting, dull insipid dialogue, and a meandering storyline.

Okay, see how you are CHOOSING to see things to support a confirmation bias?

I asked my wife, just to be sure, but neither of us saw any "Hint" that Elrond and Dwarf are/were gay. YOU inserted that into what you saw and it's strange that you would do that to yourself on purpose, unless of course you quietly WANT that to be the case.

Yes, Galadriel is strong but she's wrong quite often and people tell her so. In fact they are so annoyed with her they bail on her. It's not a Star Wars "Rey" situation.

And as far as the "Black Elf" being the only capable one...first of all why do you care what color his skin is? Are you more worried about color or character? Are the Orcs the right shade of...whatever that is...for you???

And Jesus, Galadriel is as white as a Ghost, as are most of the Elves. They can't have one slightly black one FFS?

I mean is it so terrible to cast a little variety or are you so fucking narrow that everyone has to be white? How boring.

The acting has been outstanding, the dialogue every bit as good as any other Tolkien project or high-fantasy series, and the story is only just getting started.

But you know all this.

Or you're simply a frother who has to auto-hate everything when given the slightest opportunity.

Logical fallacy that anyone who enjoys something that you dislike must be a shill.

LOTR was pretty good, but The Rings Of Power suck and it's not canon.

got to give it credit for at least the artwork and special effects, it looks fantastic and is a nice realization of the settings and characters

well, you have some interesting "taste" than OP. most people can see right through the bs they added to it and are rightfully irritated by how dumb the show really is compared to what it could have been for that amount of money spent on it and the original source material.
