Rumor: Amazon To Retool ‘The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power’, Sideline Current Showrunners After First Season Was "More O...
A new rumor suggests that Amazon's 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' may see a major production shake-up in season two.
Retool is code for double down with even worse show runners.
This time though they will pay a lot more in bribes for good reviews.
Same here. I foolishly bought the Kathleen Kennedy being fired rumors but I’ve learned much since then
A Kennedy may never be fired. With words anyway.
Lemme guess: more feminists, trannies and minorities?
Yep. If these people were physically capable of understanding the problem, they'd have seen it before the first day of shooting. Asking the people who ruined the show on purpose to fix the issues is like seeing an assembly line robot produce a broken product, and then just re-running the line as-is in hopes that the robot learned its lesson.
If anything, they're just going to conclude that the problem is white supremacists and/or incels and/or transphobes and double down on everything.
ALL feminists, trannies and minorities.
Haha
Get fucked.
Gotta say.. galandriel sure has a snooty bitch face.
I only know her from The Last Kingdom, where she played a spoiled brat of a princess, which of course was fitting.
I saw a clip of that "sword fight" scene and it was beyond parody level cringe. That blonde chick could barely lift one sword, let alone two, let alone bullying a dozen men lol
And they were even bragging how they did it in a day, or something like that. So much money and they could not even choregraph a decent fight
Do you guys think that they may do anything to save the series?
Outside of a completely new story with completely different characters, how in the world can they save ROP? This is not an episodic series like Star Trek or X-Files , this was suppose to be one story broken down to shorter episodes, after the complete trash that was the first season I just can't see how they could save any of it.
Scene 1, Episode 1 of S2: Galadriel, at that point in the Second Age still a resident of Ost-in-Edhil, wakes up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night. Her husband Celeborn and/or their daughter Celebrían ask her what's the matter. "Oh nothing dear, I just had the most terrible nightmare..."
Seriously though, the entire first season is unsalvageable and there's no point trying to build anything atop such a ramshackle '''''foundation'''''. But retooling so hard as to ignore it all and do a second season about a totally different story still won't matter if they don't get rid of the actual source of all their problems, ie. the Cult of Social Justice and its determination to shit all over Tolkien's work as part of a broader offensive against Western civilization in its entirety.
“Everyone said I was daft to build a castle in a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp.”
4th times the charm, because now you have a swamp foundation!

No. There was never anything to save. Any understanding of the man behind the original work would lead you to this conclusion. Tolkien would HATE Amazon and the consumerism it embodies. It would be like a zombie Goebbels writing and staging a sequel to Fiddler on the Roof.
They can't "save" this shitshow because it is not LOTR. It's some Progressive Current Year lecture in a Dragon Age Fantasy setting, with a cheap LOTR paint and name tag.
It will never happen though.
Nah, apologize for letting the previous showrunners make it, fire the executives who hired them and supervised, and start over by saying "Tolkien wrote a worthwhile story, one that should be filmed as he wrote it, and now that [new exec/production team] is in charge, they and Amazon are committed to making it a reality."
you can't retool something beyond repair.
Obviously because it wasn't woke enough.
NEED MOAR BLACK ELVES!
So they were anticipating a failure. Interesting. Almost like they hate us and just wanted to ruin something people love to satisfy their egos...
Just fkcing end it already!
Well yes, shitty fan fanfiction of classic material is always more of a failure than can be imagined.
"Now with more white male anal rape!"
hard to understand sometimes if these people are really this stupid or just evil
You can't polish a turd as the old saying goes.
Let's hope it fails even harder in their second attempt. Burn.
