Two eps from finishing ROP and finding it extraordinarily difficult. Nothing "bad" just trite and tired dialogue and character arcs mixed in with beautiful actors and scenery.

I saw some fascinating comments from you guys about it- especially the LOTR lore fanatics- I want to know what ROP does wrong lore-wise and want to watch a vid on it- but I don't want to search it through conventional channels cause there's a high likelihood the vid will spend 80% complaining about black and female representation.

Basically- where's the lore complaints vid that isn't :debate-me-debate-me: bonus points if they discuss the apparently mormon creatives spin on the lore.

    If you haven’t seen it yet, we just finished and greatly enjoyed House of the Dragon. It’s not exactly the same as GoT and there are a number of annoying decisions the showrunners made (switching out the actors who played two main characters because they aged even though other characters who were the same age did not get new actors) but otherwise we really liked it, although we were riffing the whole time.
