True. Even tho the visuals look way too fake in my opinion. Ofc, not all of them but just some shit I'm like bruh...
The elves look way too perfect instead of being unique like Elrond or even Galadriel like in the LOTR trilogy.
Also, wtf are these fucking halflings doing in this show, everytime I see them I just skip those parts in the show.
They do look a bit perfect yeah. I get why they have done it like that, Lore wise it was actually normal for Elves to inbreed/incest to keep bloodlines pure, but they were considered perfect beings before the wars began. If you want your brain fucked, Aragorn and Arwen from the trilogy are related xD Earendil, was a half elf who had 2 sons, a man named Elros who founded Numenor (later became Gondor) and Elrond himself.
My problem atm is when I see Elrond I just call him young Ned as he was Young Ned in the flashback scene in Game of Thrones xD
So the way the licensing works in LOTR at the moment because of Tolkiens estate, they don't have the rights to everything. So ergo they don't have the rights to the Hobbit's so they wrote in the Harfoots, a similar race of halflings which were a majority of the population of The Shire when it was founded (thats what the book says, but thats literally it). I also just skip when they are on screen tbh.
