Imagine:
- Amazon spends exorbitant amounts of money on rights + creating RoP.
- Amazon stake their future on show’s success
- show fails
- Amazon greatly injured by failure
- Tolkien damages a company that stand for everything he hate from the grave
- Saint Tolkien confirmed
@real_Glorfindel@tolkienprof The way he tore the Hobbit trilogy to shreds after its release really makes me doubt his authenticity... I really like him and his content, he has influenced the Tolkien fandom in a really good way, but this is just weird
after eight years, I finally updated my huge Historical Fashion Reference & Resources Doc! 🙌🏼

1/ This might be a risky statement: The primary problem in #TheRingsofPower isn't that that they're changing Tolkien. It's that it's poorly written, poorly plotted, poorly paced, poorly directed, with poorly constructed characters... The entire project is an amateur exercise.
Sauron didn’t plan to get shipwrecked, trapped on a raft, and almost eaten by a sea worm twice.
