I have. I loved them. I've always enjoyed the world of Middle-Earth, and this is awesome. I'm far more interested in this show than House of the Dragon, to be honest. The final season of Game of Thrones permanently poisoned that well for me. THIS is what I've been wanting to see. Granted, the first episode IS a little slow, but I still love it. I love the setup. I can't wait to see more. I love the Elrond/Durin dynamic. It's awesome.

I'll be giving that a thorough perusal tomorrow.

Which is funny because while I really enjoyed Rings of Power I knew had to watch it with my Dad for two reasons, firstly I knew that while watching it with me would be like reading a book that has each page dominated by footnotes.

Secondly, I couldn't watch this by myself with all these opinions, it has to be shared and my Dad would understand.

Episode 3 of Rings of Power? Awesome. With the introduction of Numenor, Elendil AND Isildur, we have our heading. This season is going to be awesome, but the next two seasons of the show are going to be fucking epic. Bring it on.
