Just finished Rings of Power and holy…

I’m hooked. Seriously good show, great acting, awesome costumes and CGI, soundtrack, everything. Spoilers ahead, so be warned. [spoiler]I’m very curious to see who the stranger is. At first I wondered if he might be Tom Bombadil, but I think he’s too big and Tom Bombadil was supposed to be older than Middle Earth, so it’s probably not him. Could be Sauron in one of his forms, he was known to trick people. I also wonder if it’s another Mair, similar to Gandalf and Sauron. Or if he’s an entirely new character made for the show. Galadriel is awesome, love the fight scenes and I can’t wait to see more of her. Arondir is also really cool, I can’t wait to see him in action. Bronwyn seems like an interesting character as well. Love how they’re keeping the theme of forbidden elf and human love. The Harfoots are really funny, they bring some nice lightheartedness to the darker areas of the show. What we glimpse of Sauron looks incredibly menacing, kind of looks like a cross between the Peter Jackson version and an original idea. Orcs are creepy, I really like how they wear skulls. Adds an extra factor of ick to them. The symbol of Sauron, the Eye is really cool looking too. I hope we get to see Gil Galad in action, and since one of the posters they released has him holding his spear, it’s safe to assume he will fight. I’m hoping Elrond fights as well. Overall, I’m very happy with the show, the CGI is some of the best I’ve seen in recent years, the music is wonderful and the story feels new and original while still maintaining what Tolkien wrote. I also like how it’s loose in its connection to Peter Jacksons trilogy. There’s elements in terms of aesthetics and music, but still it’s own thing, which I think is great. I just hope we get to see a couple female dwarves with beards. They said we would see that though, so I’m not worried. Well done Amazon, well done.
