I’m cautiously optimistic they won’t fuck this up. I mean, hard to tell based off that. But, I'm jacked for anything like this regardless. I would tamper my expectations to be nothing close to the movies, obviously, but hopefully more interesting than the Hobbit and such.

Speedo Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Pretty sure it’s just Game of Thrones in Middle Earth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Besides being in the high fantasy genre, LOTR and GoT aren't really that comparable imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 This won’t be anything like GoT. It’s not going be all politics, whose going to rule etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Game of Thrones was massive, they’d be dumb not to try and mimic it. It’s already set to have GoT level nudity … not that anyone is complaining, I suppose. Martin has already stated that Game of Thrones was inspired by Lord of the Rings, it’s not exactly a stretch to make the two similar.

Ghent Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 I can’t imagine this Amazon show going anywhere beyond a pair of tits here or there. Sex/sexualized nudity don’t mesh with LOTR vibes. Neither do politics or much of anything else GoT was centered on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JarJarBlinks Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 I'm scared @Russel Coight. But there's no way it will be worse than The Hobbit. Which are "fine"...just not perfection. Let's go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically any fantasy series that has been written post LotR is inspired by it. Tolkien basically invented the genre. Doesn’t mean this show will choose to follow GoT’s style. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know TV execs aren’t the most clued in people but I can’t imagine the people running this show saw the backlash etc that came from the Hobbit and thought it would be a good idea to emulate that over the LotR vibes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambivalent is better. I was just sharing what I’ve come across regarding the show. Honestly, I will watch it because I don’t think it’ll be anything like the trilogy and that is what interests me. I like the genre, just not overly thrilled with the movies. Amazon is in it for the money and they are going to make a show that caters to the largest denominator and that isn’t going to be the lord of the rings purest out there. I think the show is going to be more inline with what I expect than the trilogies but maybe I’m wrong, it happens frequently enough. If that’s the case, I won’t make it very far and you guys will have a show that you enjoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I see Galadriel getting fucked doggy style by Isildur in the first ep I’ll be dropping the show fast. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the cock on the cunt. Bloke can literally scare the shit out of a forest and laugh at the ring of power. Must have something life threatening for the majority of Middle Earth dangling between his legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 how far back is this show going to take place? could we potentially see characters like Smeagol or is it farther back than that? or do we even know yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
