The Rings Of Power continues to substitute good storytelling with an endless, inane parade of callbacks to Lord of the Rings.

I was thinking people from HBO, but considering HOTD turned out to be not that great, I'm not so sure now. Lol

I actually don't mind WOT - only because I've never read those books! My wife who's read the books is a little less enthused.

As someone who has read the series 3 times, they absolutely woke-butchered the series and fucked things up. Everything that I loved was rewritten, the characters were changed, and the pacing was off.

I have read the entire series multiple times and am enjoying the show just fine
