A lot of haters here reviewing this series as "drawn out" maybe they don't remember the lotr trilogy by pj or the books written by Tolkien himself. The long expected party was a hard chapter to get through and very drawn out. I am pleaseantly surprised how good this is. I am aware of the pandering to women lead roles and making one of the lead "elfish" roles a not so fair skined elf, but I can look past these things. As long as we stay away from the lgbtqpedo movement I will keep watching. Call me bigoted. I'll call myself a God fearing man who remembers what happened to Isreal when they started sacrificing children to Moloch or Sodom and Gomorrah. Not to mention monkeypox.
