Season 2 for ROP might be a breake or make it for the show

I enjoyed the show a lot and happy for the return to Middle-Earth once again. But I gonna be honest and say I'm worried for the future now that WB is back.

The show still gets slammed by a lot of...

How will the WB/Embracer news affect ROP?

Now that WB is back in the game to make new adaptations of Middle-Earth, how will this affect ROP?

ROP might end with 3 seasons

The backlash still hasn't gone away. Even after the first season is done, there are articles nitpicking the show to pieces. Some harsher than others. Also, the there is barely any social buzz about...

What would have made this episode perfect

I was satisfied with the season finale and how they wrapped it up. But I wished Halbrand would shaved his beard and the forging of the rings would be longer. The show could have cut down the Harfoot...

Songs from the OST that reminded me of H.Shore score in the movies.

There were a couple of tracks that did it for me.

-A Plea To The Rock(The forest sequence)

-Valinor

-Water and Flame

-Sundering Sea

Only 100 years left of the Second Age?

If I remember correctly, the showrunners did mentioned in the Vanity Fair article back in February, the timeline has been compressed down to a average human lifespan. I think it's likely the all the...

The decision to compress the timeline might have affected Numenor's lore

The most likely explanation is that Numenorean history has, in fact, been compressed. It's possible that they removed some kings, but it,s far more likely that they reduced Numenorean lifespans, so...

Expectations VS Reality with Rings Of Power

When I heard Amazon had acquired the rights to make a new Lord of the Rings show, I was overwhelmed with joy and excitment. When the first picture of the second age map, the excitment bar reached to...

The tapestry

They haven't mentioned about their lifespan, but the showrunners said during SDCC that Numenoreans live longer than a ordinary man. Also the show gave us a nod that the royal line of kings have...

Unfair criticism of ROP Eldar.

Seen many complaining about their short hair and the lack of the otherworldliness, ethereal about them.

I will adress the first complaint: Short hair.

If you look closely of all the elves...

Actually was referring to ROP Numenor

For a odd reason my thread was moved to the Book section. Maybe was it because I didn't mentioned ROP by name.

What separates Numenor from the Middle-Earth men

This is about the ROP Numenor.

-The knowledge to build megastructures that even a Maiar like Sauron was in awe. Also a advanced river system inside Armenelos.

-Great seafarers and with robust...

My ideas for what the Battle of the Soutland could have been.

Loved this episode, but I think it could have been much better. This is how I would have done it to make it more grandeur in scale:

-Have the battle occur in the Ostirith tower. Adar will lay the...

Invading Valinor impossible?

Where there any moments in the timeline of Morgoth that he could lay siege on the Undying Lands? Or is it simply beyond his power?

Is there any way they could have had Imrahil and Beregond in the movie?

Rohan got two minor(in the movie) characters such as Háma and Gamling. Why couldn't Gondor also have Imrahil and Beregond, even if their role was minor.

Why was Sauron so powerful during his war against Celebrimbor and the elves?

In the books, there was not mention of any forces except orcs that he used against Eregion. We would think Celebrimbor and the Noldor would have no problem crushing the orcs. Or were the numbers of...

A proto-Angmar in the Second Age

If Sauron sent the WK and another Nazgul to raise a pre-third age Angmar during the reigns of Elendil in Arnor, how would a war between Elendil and the WK be?

Could the Edain have a Gondor kingdom during the First Age?

If all the houses of the Edain reunited, could they have been many enough with skills to build a kingdom similar to Gondor in the Beleriand?

Only 7 balrogs in Utumno

The balrogs are powerful servants, so I guess they took few losses during the leveling of Utumno. Maybe they were 7 but were reduced to 4.
