Nice teaser. Still comes across to me more as fanfic. I wish we were getting a Silmarillion anthology adaptation, but alas, that may not happen in this universe.

I’m glad the books and original movies exist.

What do others think?

I really want it to be good, but I have my doubts after season 1. That being said, this teaser seems surprisingly coherent. I know who the bad guy is, I know who the good guys are, and I know generally why they are all fighting. That's already a pretty big improvement.

That shot of galadriel, elrond, and those other people in the fog gave off a bit of a "fellowship" vibe.
