‘The Rings Of Power’ Season 2, Episode 4 Review: ‘Eldest’ Is Another Atrocious Disaster (www.forbes.com)

The Rings Of Power continues to substitute good storytelling with an endless, inane parade of callbacks to Lord of the Rings.

I am meh about much modern media including rings of power but my complaint of the complaint comes from the reference to an earlier complaint he had about gandolf saying “If in doubt, always follow your nose” to the characters like he had in lotr. That is a phrase that if someone uses they will not just use once. Its likely a phrase they would use many times such that someone else would say. Like mister gandolfs says or such. Like my granpaapy used to say. Might as well complain when shrek says better out than in.
