My Children of Hurin

Not that any of the adaptions they're making are going to be good, but my understanding they are basically only allowed to adapt whats in the original Trilogy (Including appendices) and the Hobbit. So that's why there's a dogshit Rings of Power amazon show and the Hunt for Gollum.

I'll do it anyway

I wondered why the Rings of Power had lore totally scrambled like if someone mixed the pages, so that's why. But they still had to take basically entire lore from outside LotR and Hobbit anyway.
