The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power

^^^ the thing is that’s what happens with all prequel shows or even movies you know how things are gonna end up or which characters have to survive.

True, but they're taking creative licence to a whole new level considering the show is based on not much more than footnotes. lol.

i figured out the big twist 10 mins before they revealed it. maybe that was how it was designed, but i'm taking credit anyway!

i enjoyed it on the whole, but i agree with skully, better writers going forward might be in order.

I would rather someone be creative then totally take some of thing that is already there at least there is little Intrigue. With the reveal at the end with that guy if you go back to everything he ever said in all the eps he was in he was hinting it all along so it adds context now.
It’s biggest for me isn’t the writing so much it’s the pacing similar issue with Star Wars Andor, there so slow in picking up the pace and moving along with the story that I do hope they improve in season 2.
