A promo for Amazon’s ‘The Lord of the Rings’ TV show is getting meme’d to hell
A new promo video for Amazon’s big budget The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power TV show dropped this week and, my goodness, did the internet have jokes. Now, to be clear, this video is neither the opening credits of the show, as some folks thought, nor is it an official trailer.
It’s a mash-up of images from a promo with Entertainment Weekly. In fact, the video sits atop an in-depth EW story about the ambitious fantasy show. But that didn’t stop folks from posting sarcastic comments on Twitter about the video.
Though the post wasn’t from the show itself, there is plenty to laugh about. It’s quite strange to see what amounts to a mash-up of GIFs of actors in full LOTR garb making knowing glances, over-wrought reactions, and other vague capital-A-Acting expressions.
One person noticed a stunning similarity to a joke in Community.
People also set the video to different theme songs, ranging from the internet-famous Too Many Cooks, to Australian sitcom Kath & Kim, and soap opera The Young and the Restless.
Then there were memes and jokes. Lots of memes and jokes.
Of course, there were also lots of folks correctly noting that the video was neither the opening credits nor a trailer for the show.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power premieres globally on Friday, but those in the U.S. will be able to watch it on Amazon Prime Video at 9 p.m. E.T. Despite the memes, you might want to give it a watch. Mashable’s Belen Edwards called the show a “stunning, meticulously crafted love letter to J.R.R. Tolkien and Middle-earth.”
The internet, however, welcomed the new show with anything but love.
I was on SAS Who Dares Wins and it was terrifying, unbearable and like going to hell and back, says Jennifer Ellison
JENNIFER Ellison has opened up about taking part in the upcoming series of Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins.
The actress, 39, is one of the stars who were recently confirmed to be in this year’s line-up – and she didn’t hold back when asked to describe the experience.
Former Brookside star Jennifer said: “[It is] the most excruciating, unbearable, going to hell and back thing you can do.
“And then getting the most incredible reward at the end that stays with you for life and that changes you as a human being, changes you as a person.”
Jennifer, who shares sons Bobby, Harry and Charlie with husband Rob Tickle, compared the process to going through labour, and added: “You’re never, ever the same person again, and I’ll never be the same person again after Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.”
Confessing that one of her reasons for signing up to the show was to make a TV comeback, she added: “I wanted to do it because I’d not done anything for so long.

“I’ve had this kind of break from what I grew up doing and love doing, and kind of lost my identity a little bit.
“So the opportunity came along and I just thought, “I’m going to grab it with both hands and see I can still do my stuff.”
“It was more of a challenge for me personally, to see if I could test myself and kind of remember who I am and the fire I used to have inside of me.”
Along with Jennifer, the full line-up includes Calum Best, Towie stars Pete Wicks and Ferne McCann, Love Island champ Amber Gill and former EastEnders star Maisie Smith.

Meanwhile Jennifer earlier this year insisted she’d love to reprise her role as Brookside’s Emily Shadwick after talk of a possible comeback.
She told the Daily Star: “Brookside changed my life. I went from here, a little dancer to like, having absolutely nothing to overnight living my dream.
“I would do Brookside again in a heartbeat. Only for the reason that it means so much to me. I could just never say no to it”.
