This looks more like the Hobbit than LOTR. And I have to be hoenst, I don't like it. I prefer the grittier look of the original trilogy. Tolkien isn't just for kids, no matter what anyone says.

Unfortunately it doesn't feel like Middle Earth at all, just some fantasy world that looks not bad but absolutely foreign. Thank you for Gil Galad by the way, the only elf who finally looks like an elf. Was it so hard to give others some hair and elven charm as well?

I'm getting more "The Hobbit" vibes than I am "LoTRs" with how everything looks. Not necessarily a bad thing, just miss that more organic way everything used to look.

Very much looking forward to this! It looks like it has epic production in terms of the sets, design, and scale. No point judging it before watching the episodes for ourselves and seeing how it compares 😎💍

Looks like utter crap. 1 billion dollars, years in the making, the death of Christopher Tolkien (followed by massive rewrites), firing Tolkien scholar Shippy,... and now you have a trailer that looks like generic tripe with the usual modern wokeness.
