Nice production values. That's about it.

It feels fake, not the realistic feel Jackson had. Similar to the fake feel the Hobbit had. 

My 2 cents. It's not a good trailer, it's not bad. If there wasn't "before the ring" "before the fellowship" and a LOTR title, its indistinguishable from any other modern fantasy show. That being said, looking at the characters and knowing "that's Galadriel", "that's Elrond", "that's Durin" and you remember the Vanity Fair article, you have the sinking feeling that it's going to stink.

Yes, it will. And when you know that they only had the rights to LOTR and the Hobbit, there is a ton of first and second age lore they are going to have to make up.

"Rings of Power"? :confused:

Sounds like an exercise gadget that used to be advertised on TV in the 80's.
"Just 4 easy payments of $19.95, call now, operators are standing by!"

+ S&H, of course ;)
