Rings of Power Season 2 came to its end last week, finally releasing us from the horror that was seven weeks of non-stop bad script writing, mediocre acting, continuity errors, messed-up morality, and the destruction of Tolkien's work until Season 3 comes out if the show doesn't get cancelled first. Thank God. I'm not going... Continue Reading →
Blog: I Asked AI to Write a Script
Surely, most of us have seen the absolutely hysterical "I had a bot watch 1000 hours of [insert thing here] and write a script" posts by comedian Keaton Patti. If you haven't, here's an example of one of these scripts: Having known about these and laughed at these for a few years now, I thought... Continue Reading →
Review: Rings of Power Season 2, Episode 4…”I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating – and it gets everywhere.”
Do any of you guys know where that line comes from? That's right! It's from Star Wars, which can only mean that the Tuskan raiders are back in Rings of Power, so let's start with that. #1: The People of the Rhun and...Stoors? The people of Rhun don't really have much of a part to... Continue Reading →
Review: Rings of Power Season 2, Episode 3…Humanizing Evil (Spoilers).
Continuing with this series, the only good thing I have to say about episode three is that Galadriel isn't in it. Other than that, everything else is flaming garbage right out of the gate.

Review: Rings of Power Season 2, Episode 2 is the Best and Worst of Amazon (Spoilers).
If you were to compare this episode to Tolkien's work or really any other T.V. show that understood the assignment, it would be abysmal, just like the rest of the show. However, because Rings of Power Season 1 and the previous episode of Season 2 has lowered my proverbial bar to the point where it's... Continue Reading →

Blog: How to Never Write a Fight Scene: Rings of Power Snow Troll Scene.
I pick on Rings of Power a (perhaps) unfair amount on this blog. I mean, I’ve written numerous articles meticulously picking it apart as compared to the books, making fun of the showrunners and writers, and in general beating it a ton to make sure it’s extra dead. But today, I’m back to break down... Continue Reading →
News: It Somehow Got Worse. Rings of Power Race-swapped Annatar.
As you guys know, I'm very excited and very optomistic for Rings of Power Season 2. After all, the writers said that they would stick closer to the source material for Season 2. Surely, they aren't lying, right? After all, these people know what they're doing. They have Tolkien experts on board, right? I'm sure... Continue Reading →
News: YOU SHALL NOT INFRINGE! LOTR Fanfic Writer Sues Amazon and Loses.
In the ongoing nightmare that is Amazon's Rings of Power, there was a beacon of light in the form of a hilarious story of a fanfic writer sueing the company for $250 million.
