So, for clarity, this is Tolkien's world but a completely new story with some of his original characters now interacting with newly created ones? Like what Disney is doing to Star Wars?
Is that inherently a bad thing? It's not like Disney was never going to create new Star Wars characters and many of them have been great additions to the roster.So, for clarity, this is Tolkien's world but a completely new story with some of his original characters now interacting with newly created ones?

I'm just trying to understand what this show is.
Rumor has it that if this doesn't perform well Bezos will shut down Amazon Studios. Dunno if I believe it, but we'll see. IIRC this is supposed to be a 5 Season story, so lots more money to be spent.Well, yeah. That's really all this is.
In my parts water is actually hot because it's lava.Hey Victor Water is Wet lol
I mean yeah essentially that's what it is from what I know.I'm just trying to understand what this show is.
Other than RO and Mando, I'd say Disney has failed at capturing the magic that Star Wars is.
I don't know, that's why I'm asking.
I mean, if the story centers around his (Tolkien), like Jackson's did mostly, then I'd say yes even if there are modern deviations. But problems often come when the deviations are many more than the original storyline/beats; when the filmmakers feel that classic timeless material is somehow dated and they can do better.
I get that. And I get fans' anger.I'm all for generic fantasy -- just call it that. I don't like the use of IPs just for justification.
If they made Jaws today, they'd call it Moby Dick just because, and someone in the movie somewhere would reference "Moby DicK" and Hooper's first name would be Ishmael.
Sure. The Enemy™.Are there any good bad guys?
We haven't seen them yet apart from a brief glimpse and Sauron looking cool.Oh man... none of this is helping motivate me.
