The Tom Bombadil song sung by Rufus Wainwright was pure magic. Overall, the soundtrack has been the best piece of the series in my opinion. Bear McCreary has done a wonderful job bringing images... |

I agree here...Isildur is probably one of the weakest parts of the show. It has nothing to do with the actor, but both Isildur and Theo's characters I just don't care about and are the most boring... |

Going back to this for a moment...I'm pretty sure Halbrand/Sauron got captured to bait Adar into attacking Eregion. By telling Adar that Sauron is helping the Elves, it's going to start the war... |

Middle-earth Misconceptions

I think the start of Season 2 was much better than Season 1. First 2 episodes, there was a better flow and they seem to be pushing the plot at a better pace. Instead of cramming all the reveals and... |

Episode 3 is less engaging than Episodes 1 and 2, but there's definitely been a stronger start to Season 2 than Season 1. Prosthetics and costumes have improved (Cirdan's hair puts all the other... |
