My thoughts on LOTR: The Rings of Power Episode 1 so far:
•Prologue was pretty weak. Given how big the events of the First Age were, I expected something grand scale that would be comparable to the opening of the Battle of the Last Alliance
•Not really feeling Galadriel as a protagonist, much less someone seeking to avenge Finrod
•Galadriel being a certified badass girlboss only works when us fans are doing it, but when the show did it, it came off as that "How do you do, fellow kids?" meme
•The elves look so dry and plain. They couldn't be bothered to give the same effort that the movies did to Thranduil and Legolas?
•I know they were trying to make Galadriel's conflict to be dramatic during the boat scene but it's just so funny because you already know she's staying in Middle Earth 😭
•I was not aware that Galadriel was under Gil Galad's command? Wasn't she (and Celeborn) in charge of their own realm at the time?
• I refuse to believe that that is the same Finrod who rap battle'd Sauron and wore Nauglamir. What is it with Amazon and not putting effort in styling their male elves
•HARFOOTS INTRODUCTION WAS SO CUTE
•Did I just see Finrod raise his sword in what looks like the oath before departing Valinor
•Finrod's statue doesn't have his own sigil for some reason (perhaps a rights issue?)
•What's with the female elves and their covered faces/hair? I am currently raising my eyebrows
•GIL GALAD GIL GALAD GIL GALAD
•At least visuals are great
•Some transitions looked awkward
•Sauron is as stupid sexy as always with what looks like a new armor and is that a spear? Lance? Staff? Whatever 10/10 he's hot
•lmao @ Arondir's friend just casually telling him what happens to elf-human couples
•Celebrimbor's introduction is so 😭 like what are you doing sneaking around, old man?
•Main music is already iconic

Here's the thing though.
I KNOW Amazon is going to ruin the RoP show. I KNOW nothing good will come of it. I DON'T want this show to succeed.
...
BUT I ALSO REALLY WANNA WATCH IT.
I need to see what exactly they mess up, and to what extent. I need to see for myself if they ruin literally everything, and I wanna see how. I don't wanna hate-watch, I just wanna see, yknow?

One does not simply say ''why do you complain, Tolkien never actually gave such a precise aethetic/physical description for a place/character''.
Specially not in Tumblr.
Because they don't know who you are, they don't know what you want, if you are looking for easy internet fame, they don't have any to give you, but what they do have is a very particular set of books, books they have read over a very long time, books so detailed it makes them a nightmare for trolls. If you stop trying to explain to them feanorians where not cannonically black-haired or no one cares about the date the humans were created, they will not pursue you. But if you keep going, they will look for the info. They will find it. And they will take a pic and post it with highlights on the words that disprove you.
One doesn't simply take on the Tolkien Fandom.

So...Adar is “Son of darkness”, is this means he is Melkor and Sauron’s kid?
Wow Amazon,I didn’t know there are angbang fans in your team.

So, I’m very aware that, unfortunately, this might catch me some heat. I can’t stay quiet about it anymore, especially as a fan who’s a queer person of color. I want to make it abundantly clear that the issue with Amazon’s Rings of Power series is the company itself. 
You think that Jirt would like a company that’s probably going to outlive the actual rainforest it’s named after? 
What about all of the environmental damage that Amazon’s caused?
What about the company’s mistreatment of the poor, and the authoritarianism it has over its workers? 
You think Jirt would like something that embodies some of the worst aspects of industrialization? Have you all forgotten how this man portrayed greedy rich people? 
Amazon stands against everything that Tolkien was trying to tell us. With all that being said, I’m pretty sure the story’s going to be soulless and surface level as a result. The story is NOT going to be ruined by the inclusion of LGBTQ people, disabled people, or people of color. For Christ sakes, guys, all those people were already in Tolkien’s works! They’re not the issue. Hell, I’d argue that even if we got the original cast from PJ’s trilogy, the series would still suck. Why? Cause Amazon stands against everything that Middle Earth is about. It’s not in their favor to portray Tolkien’s works accurately. 
To me, the people who believe that inclusion is to blame for the series sucking, are right up there with Amazon. And I mean right up there with them, you’re doing EXACTLY what Amazon wants. So good job being their bigoted little puppets. I’m sure they love the free advertising, and clout.
