they could write their story
Tolkien 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' novels from the series as new adaptations of the latter (actually retellings of Gospodar prstenova: Prstenova druzina (2001), Gospodar prstenova: Dvije kule (2002) and Gospodar prstenova: Povratak kralja (2003), but the Tolkien legacy rejected this proposal. Amazon eventually acquired the rights on the condition that the series be separate from Peter Jackson’s previous adaptations. Early ideas that Tolkien had written included prequels featuring characters such as Aragorn, Gimli, and Gandalf. , but the showrunners focused on the important, untold events from the novels, rather than simple side stories, so they agreed with the studio that the series would take place under the books. Tolkien “The Silmarillion” , “Unfinished Tales” and 'The Story of Middle-earth’ (which explore the first and second ages), checked the Lord of the Rings novels and appendices for parts and references to the second age.

I haven’t seen anything like that
Starring in The Critical Drinker: The Rings of Power – War For A Fandom (2022). We all know liberties were taken with this series, so my rating is not based on fidelity to the source material. Much of the show’s marketing was concerned with awakening. I didn’t roll my eyes or cringe at any virtue signaling. The pacing is a little rough in parts, but since this is the beginning of the series, I almost expect a bit of mayhem.
By all means try it and decide for yourself
There’s a lot going on, setting up and introductions, etc…However, the characters and story are engaging, the cinematography is well done, and the score seemed to fit…so I’m honestly excited to see where this series goes. Watch "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" in all their most iconic roles from Morfydd Clark in Saint Maud to Benjamin Walker in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and more.
