Amazon should have just gotten the licence to the Forgotten Realms, instead of ultra rigid Middle Earth.
Want brown dwarves? Gold Dwarves! Brown Elves? Green & Wood Elves! Female warriors? In Paladin, Fighter, Rogue, Ranger, Monk, Barbarian flavours. Most FR eras have Halflings. FR has orders of magnitude more flexibility then Middle Earth, is better suited to action and humour and romance, horror, etc...
And soooo much more.
Just checked the Rings of Power trailer it's getting ratioed all to hell, roughly 445,000 dislikes to 75,000 likes. Should have gone with FR.
