I am really very unimpresed- dare I say disappointed? - with the costuming, given the budget this thing had. Not just Jackson's trilogy but also the much less costly House of the Dragon knocks it into a cocked hat- and that's even if we forgive RoP the ghastly armor, since almost no Hollywood production does that decently.

Nor can I join the chorus of approval for the Harfoots' (Harfeet's?) "camouflage"- anyone who hunts or grows up in deer-hunting country realizes that using antlers to hide with is a really, really, really bad idea.
