During the broadcast of the Super Bowl between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals today at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, we get a slew of new movie and television show trailers. And lucky for us, there were also quite a few geeky movie trailers. It’s part of the reason we get so excited about Super Bowl trailers and commercials. We got trailers from everything from Marvel and Star Wars to horror films.
will as usual be the biggest day of sports broadcasting in the United States. But this year might be the biggest of them all since this is the first time the country’s biggest sporting event is happening at the same time as the Winter Olympics, one of the biggest events in the world.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” is Amazon Studios’ forthcoming series that will bring to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth’s history. This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness.
Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone. Only on Prime Video Sept 2, 2022.
