#amazon series
I think at this point my current attitude with regard to the Amazon series is this:
•watchful waiting. We’ll see what this Super Bowl trailer reveals.
• thinking of it as Tolkien-esque or Tolkien-adjacent rather than Tolkien based.
•also thinking of it as fanfic by someone who wants to jump right in to the middle of canon events but isn’t super attached to the actual canon or timeline and really likes to create OCs. And who basically noped on Hugo Weaving’s Elrond.
•at least we may get Howard Shore music, if rumors are accurate.
•my ideas can remain my own and that my headcanons may actually feel more valid after this. And that is a comforting thought.

……♕ Gil-Galad / Benjamin Walker ♕……
Gil-galad was an Elven-king.
Of him the harpers sadly sing;
the last whose realm was fair and free
between the Mountains and the Sea.
.
His sword was long, his lance was keen.
His shining helm afar was seen;
the countless stars of heaven’s field
were mirrored in his silver shield.
.
But long ago he rode away,
and where he dwelleth none can say;
for into darkness fell his star
in Mordor where the shadows are.
