Amazon’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ TV Series Reveals First Look and Premiere DateThe first photo from Amazon Studios' 'The Lord of the Rings' is here, along with the long-awaited premiere date. Where is the trailer. Either this will be huge since the legendary series back in 2001-2003, or this will be a huge flop. It sucks that they're still calling it a Lord of the Rings series. It's set in the Second Age, that's thousands and thousands of years before the events of Lord of the Rings. Stop calling it Lord of the Rings if it has nothing to do with it.
