Amazon’s “The Rings of Power” has generated a lot of debate, and one aspect of that is the common criticism that much of the show is unrealistic.  Equally common, seemingly, is a rebuttal to the effect that the show is fantasy and therefore doesn’t need to be realistic.  But Tolkien would very much disagree with this statement.

I’ve done some other videos on elements of Tolkien’s “On Fairy Stories” in case you’re interested:
