The New Lord of the Rings Show on Amazon is said to be the most expensive show ever. One thing they’re leaving out is Tolkien. Yup. This is all about diversity, representation, and wokeness.
Fidelity to Tolkien’s vision is not even on the radar of the people making this show. This will be a Game of Thrones ripoff filled with political skullduggery and strategizing. What it will not be is a representation of good vs. evil and bravery vs cowardice.
This whole thing is sad. We all know it. I just hope it dies a quick death.
