    Amazon and IMDB have removed the user ratings for this because it was so bad I never made it thru the actual movies, so I have 0 desire to start these

    I wouldn't say it's bad. It's a tad woke in the first two episodes: Galadriel and the other women are the only ones with any real courage. They portray male elves as cowards or jerks (and they all have short hair for some odd reason). The one visibly brave male elf is black. Galadriel is a lot more belligerent and rebellious in character.


    We'll see where it goes.

    I'm not so sure we've seen Sauron yet. This show is supposedly going to be 5 seasons, and judging by how slow it's moving right now, we might not see him for a while. We'll probably know who he is when they start talking about forging the rings for the elves, dwarves, and humans, and we haven't scratched that surface yet.

    You could be right. Although so they were hinting that the star fall heralds the arrival of Sauron. Also I can't quite remember that there is a reference to flames that don't burn with Sauron.

    But Sauron's already in Middle Earth. He's been in Middle Earth since the 1st Age. Galadriel was searching for him all over the place. Morgoth fled Valinor with the Silmarils to Middle Earth in the 1st Age and that's where the first war took place. Sauron was one of Morgoth's lieutenants. The flames that don't burn is a power to tell you that the Stranger dude is a powerful supernatural being. He's Gandalf, even though I know he shouldn't be there. In the books/appendices, Gandalf and the rest of the Istari sailed separately to Middle Earth from Valinor early in the 3rd Age. That's after the War of the Ring. We are currently telling a story that takes place in the 2nd Age, before the War of the Ring, so it shouldn't be Gandalf, but it is. At least I think it is. Gandalf is fan service. I don't know where you got the star fall specifically heralding the arrival of Sauron. I think that was just a misdirection, a red herring. Sauron's already there. He's been there for a while. The people of Middle Earth have been fighting him for a while. Ever since the 1st war where Morgoth was defeated and locked away in the Void. Sauron was like a bad penny, he just kept turning back up. But he's always been there in Middle Earth.

    " I don't know where you got the star fall specifically heralding the arrival of Sauron. "

    I'll have to check that out again. I'm pretty sure Sauron was in disguise during the second age. Let's see...

    The damn rally speeches annoyed me a bit. Especially the one for the Orcs.
