The very famous book-film adaptation, based on a novel by JRR Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings is a trilogy. This is an international business between New Zealand and the United States. The series was thought to be coming to an end, which saddened fans. This trilogy has several reasons that go into its popularity. Fans believe that it is somewhat grounded in reality and also presents itself as an escape from the worries of all walks of life. An interesting fact about LoTR fans is that they are known as “Ringers”.

Fans of the franchise are thrilled to hear the news, especially after the Amazon series, power rings did not live up to their expectations.
Fans were disappointed with The Rings of Power
The Lord of the Rings and many other rights to adapt JRR Tolkien’s books for film adaptations are licensed to Warner Bros. Discovery since the late 90s, resulting in two award-winning trilogies: The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. However, The Lord of the Rings: rings of power did not reach the hearts of fans for so many reasons.
The film’s story is a disconnect from the real story – Galadriel doting on Halbrand, while according to the story she is already married to Celeborn at this time. Also, the movie reflects that Celeborn is dead, but as fans of the books know Galadriel and Celeborn are the key parts of the elven community and also have a child together. There’s a lot to point out other than what’s mentioned here. All of this has been very frustrating for the fans.
