I've never seen it.Back to the synopsis, I just wanted to pick out a few clues about the events/periods/characters on which the series might focus. This can only refer to the forging of the Rings of Power, so Eregion in the years S.A. 1200-1600 should figure prominently with notable characters Celebrimbor, Galadriel, and Sauron in the guise of Annatar. Eregion again fits this description, its fall coming in S.A. 1697 during the War of the Elves and Sauron in which Elrond, Gil-galad, and the Numenoreans are also involved.This seems like a reference to the Dark Years which came after the War of the Elves and Sauron, when Sauron dominated most of the earth, and lasted until his defeat in the War of the Last Alliance. I think the "re-emergence" here is the appearance of Sauron as Annatar and that the series will focus on the five hundred years from his appearance in 1200 S.A., the same year that Numenor began to construct permanent havens in middle-earth, until his defeat at the Battle of Gwathlo in 1701 S.A. when the combined forces of Numenor and Lindon gained a decisive victory, forcing Sauron back to Mordor.</blockquote>
