Got about half an hour in to the first one with the family before being overcome by sheer dwarvish tedium and finding something else to watch.

Complete contrast with LOTR which was a really well-paced series apart from the Rivendell/Galadriel stuff.

Even Tolkein suggested that they were a bit Ex Machina

I saw a brilliant comment, "if the lord of the rings is a metaphor for a world war, the eagles are the americans"

I prefer Homme's earlier work with Elven Queens of the Stone Age

The Terrible Secret of Tom Bombadil

I always thought of Bombadil as a personification of nature or the earth.
