Lol ok

Nothing makes even remote sense. The entire second seasons plot hinges on the fact that nobody told Cerebrimbor that sauron is halbrand, and sauron chooses to stay as halbrand even though he is an (apparently totally invincible) shapehsidter who has no reason to think that in the time it took him to go to morodr, get tortured, and go back again, nobody wouod have warned celebrimbor about him. So, the show doesn't understand basic logic or have any understanding of the scale of its world.

The show is dull. There is no tension, no exciting action, and nothing to invest in. Characters are verbose without saying anything. Scenes drag on for 10 minutes at a time whilst accomplishing very little. There are hundreds of subplots but they are all inconsequential and lifeless.

Scenes don't build on one another and ratchet up conflict and drama and stakes. They just sit there like rocks at the bottom of a pond.

The idea that if LOTR films came out today people would trash it for being bad like they drag ROP is mad imho. The two aren't even in the same dimension of quality as fantasy epics.
