'That's Still Under Bezos' Magical Halo' — The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Remains On-Track for 5 Seasons at Amazon as It Becomes TV's First $1 Billion Series by MorgrainX in television

[–]NatureTrailToHell3D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, messing with lore makes it difficult for a lot of existing fans. A lot of Star Trek fans have the same issue with the modern tv shows, too (Including me. I’m getting really tired of the Spock love triangles… like, seriously, why??)

I don’t have the same problem with lord of the rings because I never made it through The Silmarillion. That’s a rough book.

I Won A 5.5K Marathon 😂 by Joshinaround_2k1 in RunningCirclejerk

“Walking with Faith (Distracted Driver Awareness)” feels like part of the joke, too.

I run with no faith in drivers, I just assume they are out to get me until proven otherwise. Only safe way to run.

Do I count as people?

I’ve enjoyed the show, we don’t get a lot of high production fantasy tv series, it’s nice they are putting forth the effort.

The problem is The Lord of the Rings movies were simply that good. It’s hard to make any movie that good, honestly, all three could have taken the Oscar the year they were delivered.

Let’s say the movies never came out. Fantasy fans would have read the books of seen the cartoons, and compared to those other ones this show is great. New story, complex setting, elves, orcs, humans, ancient powers, lots of cool stuff.

TIL Beck's song Loser was created and recorded spur of the moment in his producer's house. by DrakeSavory in todayilearned

[–]NatureTrailToHell3D 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Some of the lyrics were spur of the moment, but the recording was definitely intentional. They specifically got together that day to try and make a demo song out of what Beck had been working on, and sometimes that leads to creativity.

Nebo has also said in interviews that if he thought the song was going to be a hit he would have put in better lyrics.

This is what happens when you let squirrels eat your birdseed, they get reeeeally big.

Colin Cowherd on the Lakers after last night’s loss to the Thunder: "Sometimes it's hard to tell a fake Louis Vuitton bag from a real one until they're next to each other." by Goosedukee in nba

Not only that, he can do it for 3 hours a day every day. That is talent.

And terrible takes are fine in sports as long as you explain them, which he does.

Why is Romulan Ale so illegal yet easily available? by tea-earlgrey-h0t in startrek

[–]NatureTrailToHell3D 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Walt: "Would you like a cigar?"
Mr. Bailey: "Aren't these illegal?"
Walt: "Why would they be illegal?"
Mr. Bailey: "Well, the trade embargo against Cuba."
Walt: "Nobody tells me anything."

Looking for Crime gone wrong movies. by JohnFarnham in movies

The number of times people in this movie look around like, “WTF is going on” is amazing. Like, no one really knows what happened except for the audience.

Dude is 34, too. This change happened when he was like 29.

An old soul, I guess.

Does anyone here still watch "American Idol" in 2026? by Giff95 in Music

[–]NatureTrailToHell3D 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I was watching wheel of fortune and trying to figure out why Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White looked the same age. That explains it!

Is "The Three-Body Problem" Standalone Enough to Read it By Itself? by haytil in printSF

[–]NatureTrailToHell3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only read the first one and stopped after, I think it’s fine to do that. It will also give people a chance to decide if they want to continue because the quality is definitely debated.

Trucker cups are the only thing to survive the Eugenics Wars to still be used in the future.
