again.. why are people comparing this and House of the Dragon? They are almost entirely a different genre. They both have "fantasy" elements and that's where the similarities stop..
:jbhmm: It when it come to the Game of Thrones/House of the Dragon stans it something like highlander there can only be one fantasy tv show no other:mjpls:

Folks can't help themselves, nuance is dead in society as a whole.

One is more politics and character driven, the other is the highest of fantasy with way more fantastical creatures and humanoids.
Both do very different things with their settings but the lay person rarely ever bothers to notice. :francis:

Critics were comparing MARCO POLO of all things to Game of Thrones :dahell:

I think some critics were even comparing SPARTACUS to Game of Thrones :wtf:

If a show has characters that use swords, even if there are NO fantasy elements, someone out there just HAS to compare it to Game of Thrones :snoop:

Halfway through the season

Galadriel has found herself some allies :ehh:

Guess we know what the orcs were looking for and who has it. Theo :francis:

I guess it makes sense that elves would have super hearing :skip:

Hows ep4 looking?

Any clues to who Sauron may be yet?
It’s was mediocre to say the least.
Galadriel is the worst character in this show.

Read it at your own risk:
It’s pretty obvious by now that Halbrand is Sauron. It leaked a couple of months ago on reddit.
Episode 4 confirms this theory even more.

The evil elf was the best thing about the episode. The best thing they can do to reduce the blandness is to utilise the bad guys as main characters.

I think it was real ill advised not to give them the silmarillion rights man. Morgoth would have been a Thanos level character, and he had a deep roster of goonies.
