I dont know how much IP they can use, but they cant even call the Hobbits by their name, Hobbits arent "Hobbits" because they dont own the rights to them. Who knows what else.
It's part of the Globohomo's ongoing humiliation ritual, so yes, it is indeed a victory no matter what. Profit is not the issue with Amazon; they are one of the biggest fucking corporations in the world, they make more than enough profits delivering junk to people's doorsteps. They can afford to throw money away on propaganda garbage like this, and they will to push the Agenda forward. The point is to completely destroy yet another beloved and culturally significant IP and take it away from the white race.
I figured that would happen. I really hope this bombs but normies have shown they will watch anything regardless of how much it butchers the source material. Marvel, Wherl of Time, and LOTR to name a few
The fact that it's part of the Amazon Prime subscription will make it very hard to prove that it didn't do well. It's not like we can track ticket sales. The only way to really prove it is if there was a leaked internal memo or communication to the board of directors or something. Even then it would be brushed under the rug.
Leftists and corporations both love not being able to be held accountable.
It's their biggest expenditure ever. The person that fronted this killed their smaller projects and pushed this All or Nothing strategy.
Long ago you used to be able to pitch things directly to their production department. Then they killed that pipeline and started in on this Big Money garbage.
They they admit Rings of Power as a failure then it all goes out the window and they are back to showing reruns or possibly closings their production studio outright.
Amazon reports Amazon has made record earnings. Just like they did, and will do, every year for a while. So yes, their self-insert fanfic will be a critical success, because people still don't buy local.
Well yeah, they think this is cannon now because they own the rights.
They don't care about whether or not the fans think it's cannon or even watch it, they got to change the thing you love.
Shadow of Mordor is WAY more canon than Amazon's abortion.
edit: correcting my retardedness
CANON you morons both.
K-Kodak…?
Do they even exist anymore, lol..?
Everyone here forgetting the glorious Sony/Zeiss axis.
Shake it, shake it.
Shake it like a Polaroid picture.
Last I heard of them, they were trying to jump onto the blockchain train - which is how you know a company is truly and definitely dead. https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2019/06/07/kodak-launches-a-blockchain-enabled-document-management-system/
LORD NIKON!
But they dont own the rights,
Except they do. They own the rights to a very specific portion of Tolkiens works and they got to fuck with it and pretend it's cannon.
I dont know how much IP they can use, but they cant even call the Hobbits by their name, Hobbits arent "Hobbits" because they dont own the rights to them. Who knows what else.
"WE WON! WE WON!! WE WON!!! IN YOUR FACE LOSERS!"
Said, to the crowd of no one.
"Mission Accomplished"
Mission failed successfully!

Because if they say it, and it goes into print or other media, then future generations will see that and think this is some sort of classic
They spent a billion dollars to destroy white culture and if you don't like it youre racist.
It will be critically acclaimed even if it was just a bunch of blm looting videos with a dramatic soundtrack.

For a non-American example: IPCRESS.
It wasn’t terrible, but as a remake of one of the most famous British (spy) movies of all time, it sure did change a lot, for “woke’s sake”… 😑
it was never about the show, but the "diversity"

A victory for money laundering?
You will never know the actual viewership because Amazon will never release the real numbers.
And they'll be right. If you have an Amazon Prime subscription you're paying for this trash whether you like it or not.

They have to be careful here because if they lie to their investors about the success of this show, they can get into huge amounts of trouble.
