This is Pure Desperation

KEEP UP ON SOCIAL MEDIA:

[overlord]

Making the first season free is like admitting that the Modern audience doesn't spend money

[slicerneons]

It still isn't worth that price.
What utterly worthless drivel.

[charmingpeasant]

Jeff Bezos would have to pay me to watch this slop.

[JKM]

What? FREE? Now I can avoid it for even less!

[funkydiscogod]

And to think: all they had to do was make a story that was already written.

[darthlovejoy]

What did Samsung owners do to deserve this

[Rhamsody]

Remember when they gave away tickets for Captain Marvel? Yeah...

[Adelina-]

Amazon: You can watch it for free.
LOTR fans: No thanks, there's paint drying that needs watching.

[noneyabidness]

I watched the first two episodes for free. I want my money back.

[jimivey]

Free Rings of Power S1 is like
“Free Cow Pies, All You Can Eat”.

After MUCH deliberation, contemplation and other intellectual words that could be used for 'Thinking'.... I've concluded that the ONLY words I can utilise for Amazons' actions are... DESPERATE & DESPERATION... 😏🤣🤣🤣 😎🇬🇧

Thanks for the reminder to cancel my Amazon Prime sub that I accidentally left to auto-renew last year. Was due to charge me on the 23rd.

[richardlbowles]

Yes, this time round, Season 2 _is_ being pitted against a direct competitor. I believed it's called "Watching paint dry".

Frankly, I'm torn.

[bladeduffer]

Remember that time Bezos was on a stage telling us that upon hearing that he was making a show, supposedly, based on Tolkien, his own kid told him "Don't f__k this up!"?

[vmatey]

They played the first episode on a flight. And people still walked out.

[rogierb]

When merchants and ideologues are put in charge of creative endeavours, its going to end up being soulless and lacking in quality.

[aleksanderfinstad]

"The Ring Of Power" serie is crime to the Tolkien-Universe.

[thedarkknight]

Amazon 'Rings of Power' fan - "YOU, HAVE NOT seen what I HAVE SEEN!"
Me (like MOST others) - "I, WONT SEE, what YOU have
😏🤣🤣🤣 😎🇬🇧

[CaptainLuckyLuke]

I genuinely think that two guys (J. D. Payne and Patrick McKay) only known for uncredited work on three mediocre films (Star Trek: Beyond, Godzilla vs Kong, and Jungle Cruise) being given the reins of a multi billion dollar project is the most inexplicable thing to happen in the history of entertainment!!

[andrejsasd]

This just REEKS of desperation and panic
