Warner Bros. Might End Up Repeating Amazing Spider-Man Mistake

Yet Another Rings of Power Plot Twist That Makes No Sense to Fans
One of the more poignant criticisms aimed at The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is that a lot of it looks like a fantasy story filmed by people who don't actually read fantasy, and base their understanding not just of Tolkien's world, but of the fantasy genre in general on the opinions of their detractors.

As we have explained a number of times before, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is almost certainly performing far short of the expectations imposed by its massive budget and hype.

You Won't Believe How Little Orlando Bloom Made in LoTR
It's no secret that bankable actors get obscenely high pay for their work in successful movies, as studios realize using popular names in productions is a marketing tactic that can net them way more money than they pay their cast.

Amazon Keeps Mum on Rings of Power Audience Size, Fools Nobody
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is probably the most lavishly funded TV series ever, with the budget of over $58 million per episode, so it stands to reason that to be rightfully called 'successful', it should be not simply among Amazon Prime Video's most watched original series, but among the most watched TV series ever.

Christopher Lee is most famous for playing villainous characters, including Dracula in various Hammer films, Saruman in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Count Dooku in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, a Bond villain in The Man With The Golden Gun, and that guy who owns a wicker man in The Wicker Man.
