Last thing: the pacing. Tolkien always let each scene play out at its own pace, never rushing or switching out perspectives too quickly. This is the opposite, I felt like the rug was being pulled out from under me every couple of minutes.

I had to give up reading LOTR to the kids because of glacial pacing. "Are we still here?".Last thing: the pacing.

It’s the journey, not the destination.I had to give up reading LOTR to the kids because of glacial pacing. "Are we still here?".
i think I can safely say, without fear of reproach or indeed contradiction, that it's Gwyneth Paltrow's headwhat's have the dwarfs got in that chest?
Sure yeah, but that hasn't happened yet (I don't think??) so let's see what happens.It’s not that I require exact keeping to the Tolkien timelines (the idea of the action in this series happening on a timescale that allows humans to exist as anything more than a blink is a great decision) but some of these things are kind of a big deal in how Tolkien conceived not only of how the stories played out but the motivation of characters in the long run. Like would Lord of the Rings work if Sauron knew what a Shire was when he captured and tortured Gollum?
Don't threaten me with a good time, this is exactly what I want.Also, 20 minute landscapes and poetry readings sound great, imagine if Tarkovsky directed LOTR?
True but I’m invoking about my Right of Pickiness as a level 10 need to give out about it anyway!Sure yeah, but that hasn't happened yet (I don't think??) so let's see what happens.
Not saying I love the Harfoots or anything but that was the first episode where I seriously went "oh, this is gonna be shit isn't it?". Proper Netflix style nothing episode where a whole load of plot happened and I just didn't care. Hrm.really looking forward to Buddy showing up in this on his way to New York to find his dad
