Trailer for the second season of "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" drowned in dislikes
Yesterday, Amazon MGM Studios released the first teaser trailer for the second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, and viewers expectedly received it negatively. Currently, the number of designs is 4 times higher than the number of likes: more than 200 thousand people gave a “thumbs down”, thereby expressing their opinion about what they saw.
In the comments, people ridicule the script move about how the elves do not they recognize Halbrand/Sauron because he is wearing a wig, as well as music that is not in keeping with the spirit of Middle-earth. The top comments read:
The amount of negativity and ridicule the teaser trailer received is actually not surprising given the reception of the first season. The show only had a 38% approval rating from viewers on RottenTomatoes, which is quite different from the critics' rating. Also, according to The Hollywood Reported, only 37 percent of viewers were able to watch the first season, and the series did not receive a single major award.
