Amazon spent half a billion dollars getting the right to and producing a Tolkein series. And as more information creeps out about it, the more it seems likely to be a mess. I’d *love* to see a fantastic series set in Numenor, with the designs of props, locations and character true to the source *and* coherent with the Peter Jackson films. I’d *love* to see a series set in Numenor that has intriguing characters and good plots. But it’s starting to look like what we’ll actually get is woke nonsense skewed towards raking in that sweet, sweet Chinese money. If that is indeed what happens… I hope that Amazon loses money on a vast unprecedented scale.
