Warner Bros. said Thursday that it will release more films in its The Lord of the Rings franchise, the first of which is still in script development but is planned to be released in 2026.

    Sure, but results in the past give no guarantees about how successful a future endeavour can be.

    I’m not trying to take a side here, but just reserving judgement.

      I’m not talking about success but quality and respect for the source material. Rings of Power could’ve raked in all the money in the world and made every self-titled critic that wasn’t even alive in 2003 cream their jorts, and it would still be a fucking travesty.

      In case it’s not obvious, I have a deep loathing for current year WB.
