Heck you got me.
Yeah that's what I thought too. Gandalf specifically said that the Dwarves of Moria dug too deep that woken the Balrog. So Balon needs to become King before Moria falls?

I think the series has got better and better as the series has gone on, and that definitely had the strongest Galadriel scenes so far.
Obviously Isildur survives so I guess that swerve is aimed at people not familiar with the lore.

Or the whole thing is a deliberate troll and he's an entirely different bloke called Isildur.

Enjoyed this week’s episode, again best one so far.
Had some humour this time around - Lenny’s line was great
At this point it does seem that the earlier episodes were too slow. I make the same point for perhaps the third time: this is a curse of TV shows. Characters do not need screen time to have character. They just need to have engaging moments.
Also calling that ‘star man’ is Elronds’s dad

Doesn't an elf survive getting half their face burnt by a dragon at some point? And isn't this a TV show with magic and different races etc... Most people died from what I can remember. You are also forgetting she had the best armour going, plot armour!

Amazon is trashing Tolkeins work with their allegory, at least it isn't quite at the Wheel of time level of abuse, yet.
Tolkien's work is still there unadulterated for the purists. Amazon can do whatever they want with their adaptation.
The problem is its beyond adaption. About the only thing it has in common so far is a few names.

It's not an adaptation it's their own rubbish. 100% their own "creation" like Dr. Frankenstein but making TV.
I think the screwing with timelines is 100% worse personally, and that's from someone who thinks WoT is probably the worst piece of fantasy ever filmed

Seems odd to me, but Mckay would know.
This made me laugh:
. The Rings of Power tells the tale of the Second Age of Middle-earth
No it doesn't.
