Everything You Need to Know About Sauron's Evil Plan in 'The Rings of Power' Season 2

There is some serious nerd rage around this show. A large group of terminally online people who cant get over the fact that this show exists. I remember when it was announced, the lotr subreddits collectively decided its going to suck, and any dissent was downvoted to oblivion. Then, when s1 came out, every new episode was immediately micro-analyzed and various aspects declared as bad (ranging from vague “bad writing” to “too woke” to straight up racism). Various mean spirited memes were popping up in otherwise meme-free subreddits, actors were personally attacked. It was pretty bad time to be Tolkien fan and liking the show, to say the least.

So yeah, the show gets disproportionate amount of hate for being based on the LotR. I am not saying it’s television masterpiece, but its 7/10 at worst, a fun adventure in Middle Earth with decent story and interesting characters you can root for.

I mean, imagine if s1 RoP ended the way HotD s2 did. Can you imagine the reaction?

I have no idea 😂

The dour dickholes have found Lemmy, it seems.
