The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 8: ‘Shadow and Flame’ and Overall Season Two Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Spoilers The Rings of Power’s second season is now concluded and it’s safe to say it was an overall improvement over season one. That said, the show was wildly inconsistent and some episodes really suffered from this as a result. But the season’s finale was much better than the first season’s rushed finale and set things up for big things to come while having some … Continue reading The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 8: ‘Shadow and Flame’ and Overall Season Two Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 7: ‘Doomed To Die’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

If there’s one thing The Rings of Power can’t be accused of, is doing poor action set pieces. This was true in the first season during the battle in the Southlands and this remains true with season two’s big action set pieces. What’s wild is that the action isn’t even done yet, as the assault will continue in next week’s finale! But just because the … Continue reading The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 7: ‘Doomed To Die’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power ‘Where Is He?’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Coming off of two weeks of Rings of Power, where I said we had the worst and best of the series to date respectively, the sixth episode of season two lands somewhere in the middle of the quality scale. The pieces are in place for the Siege of Eregion next week, but this week the show made sure to check in on almost all the … Continue reading The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power ‘Where Is He?’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode Five ‘Halls of Stone’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

If you recall last week’s review, I was pretty cranky with Rings of Power. While I commend the show for not bouncing around as much in season two as in season one, last week’s chosen arcs featured the two I’m just not invested in. Thankfully, this week’s episode, Halls of Stone, was the complete opposite and is perhaps the best episode of the season thus … Continue reading The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode Five ‘Halls of Stone’ Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Season 2, Episodes 1-3 Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is back for a second season after a two-year wait. Perhaps it’s that long wait that persuaded the studio to drop three episodes at once for the premiere, rivalling the theatrical cuts of Peter Jackson’s Middle-earth films. It’s no secret that the first season’s reception wasn’t quite what the studio was expecting, with the show … Continue reading ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Season 2, Episodes 1-3 Spoiler-Free Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Episodes 1 & 2 Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

It’s been something of an interesting journey for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The rumoured almost one billion-dollar production has been met with skepticism (from yours truly), uncertainty and even hate from all sectors of the fandom. While I won’t understand hating something so passionately before it even debuts, I do know why fans have been so skeptical over the series. … Continue reading ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Episodes 1 & 2 Spoiler Review – ScreenHub Entertainment

Nine Changes Peter Jackson Made In ‘The Lord of the Rings’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

I write this article not to nitpick or throw the Peter Jackson movies under the bus. On the contrary, Jackson’s Lord of the Rings films are some of my favourite films of all time. But some of the fan response to The Rings of Power has thrown me a bit off. Apart from all the racists coming out of the floorboards, a big reason why … Continue reading Nine Changes Peter Jackson Made In ‘The Lord of the Rings’ – ScreenHub Entertainment
