[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 9466082, member: 23751"] They didn't need to condense anything. Leave Elendil and company out of it completely. Use contemporary Numenoreans. They had the names for the Numenorean kings of that time. Tell the story of the rings of power and finish the story in a season or two. Then do the story of Elendil and Ar-Pharazon another time. The coming of the Istari yet a different season. There was no good reason for them to completely maul the timeline. Oh good God. I love how you make it about me not liking strong women. :rolleyes: We know what Galadriel was like when she was young, middle aged, and during the Lord of the Rings. It would be completely against her character to go warlike amazon. Galadriel does have.. Numenoreans weren't... Gil-Galad couldn't... This is how the Middle Earth is. There are no extrapolations there. We have enough stories written by Tolkien to know these things. In your opinion it wouldn't make the story better. In my opinion the story would be different and at LEAST as good, probably better. And who said anything about Elendil being decrepit? Season one was junk for what it was. Horrible, horrible writing. Even if I take it as some sort of fantasy story and not Lord of the Rings, which I did with the Lord of the Rings movies and loved them because I did it, season 1 was still almost entirely junk. The dwarves were done very well. Season two is much better than season one. The writing I will disagree with [USER=4303]@Sepulchrave II[/USER] and say that it's average. Not great(aside from a few pieces) and not horrible(aside from a few pieces). [/QUOTE]
