Best fantasy movie series ever – unfortunately with a big catch

If you’re in the mood for fantasy, you’ll really be spoiled for choice in all of the streaming services these days. Fans can now also expect the ultimate genre to be highlighted on Amazon Prime, albeit with a drawback.

With “The Sandman,” he recently launched the year’s most creative and outlandish fantasy series on Netflix. Meanwhile, the top streaming rivals are transitioning into classic fantasy entertainment thanks to the new Game of Thrones series House of the Dragon (launching August 22 on Sky) and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (releasing September 2 on Sky). Amazon Prime Video). The following trailer gives you a taste of the Amazon chain:

It is not surprising that the last two titles were critically presented in advance, after all, the finale of “Game of Thrones” disappointed many and the trilogy “Lord of the Rings” still holds a very special place in the hearts of many fans of fantasy 20 years later. .fans. If you get to know yourself in the last part, you’ll be glad to hear that the Three “The Lord of the Rings” movies are now back on Amazon Prime Video with a subscription at no additional cost Available as a streaming service via Facebook mentioned.

So you could start your next marathon with “The Fellowship of the Ring,” “The Two Towers,” “The Return of the King” and in theory even run the trio in a continuous loop to get in the mood for the beginning of “The Rings of Power.” However, there is one not entirely small point of bitterness, which is sure to make the show uninteresting to many: the trilogy is only available in theatrical version on a Prime subscription. For the Extended Special Editions, you have to pay another €11.99 per movie or alternatively €22.99 for all three “Lord of the Rings” movies together.

Can “The Rings of Power” convince skeptical “Lord of the Rings” fans?

Whether it’s theatrical release or extended releases, it’s clear that rewatching The Lord of the Rings trilogy is an annual tradition for many. For some, the works are the best trilogy of all time, if not the best movies ever. As book templates by JRR Tolkien – which you can enjoy as audiobooks here on Audible – also radiate an unending charm, it’s understandable why fans are skeptical about “Rings of Power.”

Since the first season of the Amazon series alone charges nearly half a billion US dollars, one cannot blame those responsible for saving costs or effort. However, the story must of course also be compelling. This takes us to the Second Age, which occurred a few thousand years before the events of the well-known Triad.

As the title of The Rings of Power suggests, it is all about powerful artifacts crafted by Sauron. Since Isildur and Elendil also play a role in the series along with Galadriel and Elrond, we can assume that the plan is to tell the story of Sauron’s rise and fall in the five target seasons, ending with the alliance of Elves and Men who opposed him in Mordor. We’ve already seen this in the prequel to The Fellowship of the Ring, but of course the series will obviously be compared to the accomplishments of films before then. We can be curious about the September 2 verdict.
