Wow what a Gamble for Amazon and well it " Looks" amazing. The sets, Armor, setting, and attention to detail are immaculate. Two episodes in and we are still building. This so far is a slow burn. The scope is big and the pacing seems off to me. Long times of Galadriel swimming etc seem wasted but we shall see. There is some magic and intrigue built around the stranger character that i hope plays out well. The action and orcs have been done very well and you can tell they spent aoot of money on it. I dont think this show is " woke" like most people thought but it does have a diverse cast that i think fits well so far. I was hoping for more but we shall see. Two episodes in and a little lackluster for me
