Sad to see how many people can't think for themselves when judging a visual masterpiece.
As soon as the dailymail released an extremely negative view on this show the sheep followed.
Picking a story in middle earth to follow is just an impossible task to do but each will be its own adventure. I love the path they have decided to go down.
I've heard ludicrous comments like:
"The elf shouldn't be black"
"The story line is bad"
"Bad acting"
Most of these people haven't even seen episode 2.
This show is a dream for any LOTR fans, brilliant.
