We begin our series "Beyond Middle Earth" to check out other TV and Film work by the Fellowship from Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings. We start out by journeying to the Caribbean to meet Will Turner, aka Legolas, aka Orlando Bloom. We discuss the movie, or lovely Legolas, and why Orlando isn't a bigger star. --- LOOK MOM, we have a Patreon!

We've made it through the best and worst of "Rings of Power" Season 1 and arrived at the finale, episode 8, "Alloyed." Did they throw a hail mary? Did they fumble it? We'll talk about everything and thensome. ---LOOK MOM, we have a Patreon! Get EARLY ACCESS to episodes, EXCLUSIVE ACCESS to the video version of our show, and more!

Wait... why is this episode called "The Eye"? Listen, this is unequivocally the worst episode in season 1 of Rings of Power. You know it, we know it. Most of what we talk about in this episode is what the showrunners should have done differently. It's unavoidable, and besides, we're good writers. ---LOOK MOM, we have a Patreon!

We might all be looking forward to the next episode of Rings of Power, but we're here to tell you, Episode 5 is NOT BAD. Now... there are some plot inconsistencies, some questions about the Numenorians, some ick about the Harfoots... but we're giving you the meat, and we're giving it to you raw.

Episode 2 of "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" is not great. If it wasn't for the introduction of the dwarves, this whole episode would have been a slog.
