Interesting to see that the director was the writer for a horror game called Amanda the Adventurer.

First time I've heard of it, but turns out it has ~5K reviews with an "Overwhelmingly Positive" rating. Not bad at all.

I quit after the first episode when I realized it's not really based on Tolkien's work and it wasn't going to be a novel and unique concept.

I agree The Silmarillion is rather dry and somewhat convoluted. But the main story offers a lot of potential for epic story telling. Setting the story in Numenor could also offer a lot of potential.

Thanks for sharing. I generally focus on horror, scifi and crime thrillers for my Japanese cinema, but this looks intriguing enough.

I don't think it's solely a matter of having a "TikTok-brain".

I don't use Tik-Tok (never have) and I did not like The Rings of Power. I would have much preferred if they adapted the main story in The Silmarillion; Quenta Silmarillion. Instead they came up with a generic "made for streaming with minimal inspiration from a literary work for marketing purposes" concept.

YT version for those of us without Spotify.

Good track!

Don't speak German, but this definitely has that early 2010s minimal techno/deep sound to it.

It's a retro-classic by this point.

Jerry Martin - Area 52 / Bombay and The Humble Brothers - Arctica are particularly memorable with respect to more idm-y tracks.

In general the Simcity 3000, Simcity3K Unlimited and Simcity 4 + Rush Hours soundtracks are exemplary in their quality.

Might have to check this one out in the theatres.

This stuff is wild. Difficult to label it as anything other than degeneracy.

I highly doubt this will be good. As others have mentioned they'll probably just use the name and make some random BS story.
