Elijah Wood found The Lord of the Rings an eye-opening experience, having grown up watching genre films and relishing in playing an epic and romantic hero for Peter Jackson's trilogy. Wood still enjoys storytelling today, which may help him when Amazon debuts its own Lord of the Rings series later this year. Although no details have been shared as of yet about their project yet, Amazon recently tweeted out an image depicting Tolkien's Middle-earth and hinted that this series may take place prior to Jackson's trilogy's events.
Tolkien's fantasy universe offers an abundance of characters and events that could make for compelling television series content, yet managing all of them effectively could prove challenging for producers. To succeed at doing this successfully, they will need to make tradeoffs between factors such as character development, plot progression and overall tone - something Tolkien himself could never achieve without great effort from their creative teams.
Tradeoff analysis is an effective process used to weigh various options before making decisions about various projects or products, including movies, video games, corporate strategies, etc. It reveals hidden connections among seemingly disparate aspects of a product or project that might otherwise appear unrelated.
An organization trying to strike a balance between work and personal activities may set strict limits for each. Although this might cause some employees to feel frustrated, setting these rules will help the company achieve its goals while improving employee morale.
Peter Jackson and his team undertook an enormous undertaking with The Lord of the Rings trilogy, yet it was incredibly successful thanks to its well-balanced filmmaking style. Characters remained sympathetic while action was gripping and plot believable; qualities which can often prove difficult in three-hour movies like this one; therefore it is no wonder why fans love it so much.
Some movies may face backlash from online hater culture, but The Lord of the Rings films have survived this scrutiny with great success over two decades and will celebrate their 20th anniversary soon. Perhaps its longevity will help its upcoming series avoid similar criticism - however, ultimately it's up to production and creative teams to ensure they present it exactly how fans expect it.
