5 - I‘ll Be a Blue Wizard Without You

Watch Party: Lord of the Rings

“It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule.”

On today’s pod we’re going to bring you up to speed on the latest rumors about the show and Amazon’s marketing efforts, some drama in the Tolkien fandom, and some rampant speculation about which female directors we think might come on board for LOTRonPrime. And then our main topic: will Amazon introduce the enigmatic and mysterious Blue Wizards in the show?! It's a juicy one, so grab some popcorn and a flagon of Beorn's honey mead!
