Default Rings of Power watch party.

Ok so the show comes out tonight. I think 9 or 10 pm east. I’m aware of the bad press, don’t need everyone reminding me. But I am still curious to see the most expensive show ever made. Regardless if it’s good or bad I’ll at least see the first two episodes. I gave the terrible resident evil a chance before turning it off lol. I have a little more hope for this show since I have a real life friend who praised it from going to a screening in NYC.

Anyone else going to give it a watch?

Cool

Most expensive show ever made? Is this true??

Will be epic levels of failure my friends if Amazon still doesnt know how to make good shows LoL [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think they need to rely less on spectacle and CGI/costumes....and pony up more cold hard cash for A-list actors, A-list directors, A-list writers etc.

Their crap will all be bad if they dont pay for any fantastic directors, actors, or writers. How can Bezos be so dense if this fails too?? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It may not be for everyone, but I’m assuming it’s going to be a story of seeing her change and grow as a character if they do it right

I did like it. It wasn't LOTR, but I like other stuff too.

I just watched the frist episode. I had goosbumps legit for the first 15 mins, the voice over part was so bad ass, and when they go to the wrath of the lich king expansion that was so awesome!!! Im loving this ninja elf ranger too

imo that was handled right in this show, vs game of thrones. Like game of thrones's new show is so heavy handed like that, while galadrial, is just a dope character.

imo it felt right

the racist hobbits though is totally racist.

that'd be like if they made the orcs american indian themed lol

"irish shounds poor to me, so lets do that"

"i think thats an old racist thing from over there"

"who cares this is america"

its like 1980s level hollywood obtuse that I miss with all the cancel culture.
