The Rings Of Power continues to substitute good storytelling with an endless, inane parade of callbacks to Lord of the Rings.

I too am bummed out with the constant 'echoes of the future' and also the lazy storytelling. (Seriously the elves do lack proper communication methods).

But the thing this episode did was 'you know Tolkien geeks, all the stuff Peter Jackson left out like Tom and the wraiths we'll put in. And add in some ent wifes too'

It's laid on so thick that it's cringing me out.
