merciful-evans Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I just finished a weeks sample of prime (I did a month previously). Watched a couple of films, a bit more of Grand Tour, but mostly documentaries. I might've given this LOR a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valtyr Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I hope it's good. I liked the LOTR films more than the Hobbit. The more they drift from the source material, the less good it ends up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more they drift from the source material, the less good it ends up. Same here. I really enjoyed The Lord of The Rings Trilogy. Also really enjoyed “Game of Thrones.” Each movie/episode made you eager to see more. Sequels and prequels often fail to live-up to the originals. I think a lot of it has to do with the chemistry of the original cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitefang Indeed! 🤣 (to all) Is it just me or is media just getting worse… like Star Wars… Disney is gonna bleed that stone till it has nothing left to give. Idk I just don’t get into watching a bunch of adults on screen dressing up in make believe tin-foil garb pretending to save “the kingdom”. Reality TV… The list goes on. Sorry if you’re a fan whoever reads this but I’m sharing my opinion and I’ll stand by it. All a bunch of crap lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NighthawkChris Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) If someone gave me a dvd set of lord of the rings for a gift I’d punch them in the face lol right then and there lol! Even if you were bigger than me it would be worth the a$$ kicking to stand my ground. Same goes for Star Wars.

fortyearspickn Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Disney seems to own or control all things 'entertainment' related. Even ABC. Computer games.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last few episodes the Mandalorian is in it.. It made me appreciate the Mandalorian series much more. I was actually pleased to see him again and enjoyed those episodes.. Thats how bad the Bobba series was... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they planning any new episodes? There's an Obi-Wan series coming... Maybe they should just let it rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I never watched a single episode. However, they had a Lord of the Rings chess set out way back. I thought that looked pretty cool so I bought it. It was pretty pricey. I have many collector chess sets. Star Trek trip demential set with silver and gold plated sides. Never played it. Nor most.

My Best set is my Raj India set. I had to collect 2 pieces at a time. One piece with its pawn and it took a few years. It came from the Franklin Mint. Cost like over $1,700.00 but my Tournament set is German made. Hand carved. Before I retired from BN, I made my own set out of nuts and bolts, Haha. Yeah, Iv'e never seen that one before, Thanks for showing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
