#- Lord of the rings: the rings of Power (2022)

[haveyouseenthisseries-poll]

This blog is officially 6 months old!

With over 1000 polls posted and more than 2500 submissions received, I think it's time for a little recap of all the data I collected thanks to all of you!

Starting with some fun facts, the countries of origin of the series submitted are the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan!

Under the cut I've compiled the 10 Most Avoided and 10 Most Watched series of Tumblr, according to the results I've received these past months. ^^

> Thanks, but No

Despite being generally well known, there's something about these series that simply didn't captivate the Tumblr population. Here are the 10 Most Avoided shows of Tumblr! Well! There's other sites.

10. Cowboy Bebop (2021) with 72.2% "No" results;

Grór, hunter of cold-drakes and lord of the iron hills ( in their late 70s and then at 150+ years old). Here's a very late Dwarrowtober piece for Day 12: Hunting, since I caught the virus after a busy week : ' D (Still feeling it but I feel better now). I was feeling too ill for drawing or social media so that is why I randomly disappeared.

I need some help y'all!

Since a lot of the blogs I used to follow have been inactive for years, I'd like to revitalize my dashboard. So I'm looking for new blogs to follow!

I'd be much obliged if y'all dropped some blog recommendations my way or like/reblog this if you post about any of the following fandoms:

Reylo

Loki and/or Sylki

Willow (particularly the show) & Graylora

Star Trek (all of it but especially Voyager and the new shows)

Rogue One/Andor/Rebelcaptain

Lost in Space 2018 (kinda niche I know but it's been a hyperfixation on/off)

Lord of the Rings/Hobbit/Rings of Power

Zutara

Nashuri

Sherlolly

Snowbaird/The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

Thank you 💖

[Edited to add this psa that I realized I should've had in the first place: This is a pro-palestine blog. I stand firmly against the genocides occurring in Gaza, Sudan, and Congo and do not tolerate islamophobia, antisemitism, or zionism.]

My favorite genre is where the world has been destroyed/irrevocably changed because of an ancient/lost civilization which was then destroyed because of a problem they created and now, many decades/centuries later, the hero has to solve the problem with primitive/less advanced technology all while piecing together what happened.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022–)

[marianaillust]

My Elves illustration book completed !

Its thé first time I ever do an art book so I am very happy with the résult 😊 I went with a hard cover and satin pages.

As I wrote in a previous ask, I wont be able to manufacture it to sell due to the cost of the book but if anyone is interested in individual prints you can find them at my print store :

Not everyone is going to like every piece of media (nor should they) but there's something very grim about looking for videos on YouTube, for example, about Rings Of Power, or Willow(2022), or SheHulk, etc and seeing almost nothing but hate videos. EVERYONE hates these shows?? Really? EVERYONE???

Again, I'm not saying your opinion is wrong or bad if you don't like it, but fuck man, do you really need attention so badly that you need to scream about how much you think something sucked? Especially if you have a very large following?

Or maybe it's the way so many seem to express their opinions on a show *as though it were fact* that's rubbing me the wrong way? I don't know.

Again, I'm not saying you shouldn't be allowed to say "I didn't like this", but maybe don't be such a dick about it?* Because I am one-thousand percent certain that these shows were not made for me and only me. I am not alone in liking this stuff. So why are the crab ass' voices so loud?

* (I need to learn this lesson too; I went off on a tirade about a show whose first season I thought was amazing and whose second season I thought sucked. No one made me watch it; no one insisted that I have to like it, yet there I was, bitching about it [granted, I have a teeny, tiny following, mostly of personal friends, so it's not like I was review bombing said show. Still)])

I don't know, maybe this is just complaining about all the complaining, lol...

...

...And as I paused while writing this? I happened across a video. I wasn't looking for it, but it popped up: "Willow 2022 is perfect - I was wrong" Ha. A little hope perhaps?

TV is supposed to entertain us. Let's watch what we like and not watch what we don't **

**(there are, obviously, exceptions when that piece of media is actively harmful. In fact, this whole topic could be delved deeply into how these criticisms often skew racist/sexist/queermisic/ableist/etc, but I'm not at all qualified to offer insight into that - I'm sure some have done just that; I'd love to know who)

Anyway, don't harsh someone else’s mellow (when it's doing no harm) ✌🏻

Here I offer a little bonus from the second day of this year's Dragon Con! I joined a Tolkien-themed photoshoot, as I stated in the previous post, and I got a few extras just as the session started. Good night, folks. What will tomorrow bring for me and Arturo Reyes Pinguino?

"It was one place that we were just laser-focused on saying, 'We need to get this right,'" explains co-showrunner JD Payne, who created the show with Patrick McKay. "It's never been seen before. People have some ideas of what elves look like or what dwarves look like and what those kingdoms might look like. But Númenor was, in some ways, a blank canvas."
