LOTR on prime

[Miss blue beard]

Is there a thread for this? If not anyone interested in it? Loved LOTR both books and films and am excited to see what they do with this.

Don't mean this in a condescending way.... I liked the movies when that came out 20 yrs ago or so when I was 12. I'm sure the books are great but I pretty much only read nonfiction history, so I've never dedicated the time to them.

I was not even aware they were making something on Amazon Prime for them. I usually enjoy the cinematography, sets, the natural landscapes they use in these "fantasy" (is the the genre isn't almost all TV fantasy?) movies and shows.

I'm terrified of flying. I can deal with it to get Europe or Cali from NY. I don't think I'll ever make it to NZ so these shows do it for me.

Do people generally have high expectations for this?

There really shouldn't be any other type ...

…LOTR, somebody in another thread told me it’s a long range lens for a camera.

That's really not as clever of a response as you think lol

If anything it just exposes how unread you are.

As my wife always tells me, all feedback is a gift ...

Walking: the film.

Sheep have now taken over the NZ set for Hobbiton, funnily enough.

I was going to join in on this thread but it’s already been ruined by the ramblings of that stupid yank.

Neither do I, too.

Same, though i cancelled amazon a while back as i thought its content was a bit crap. I'll wait and see what the general consensus is on this and will renew if it seems like watching.

They’re turning LotR into the next shameless cash cow are they? I’m surprised it took this long

So… it’s not for you then?
