Yeah it's fun to laugh at a silly trailer but anyone who thinks this won't sell millions of copies is out of touch.

Its gonna be a hit.

Im worried about TEW2

 

[Freeglader]

For someone who cherishes Middle Earth, watching that was incredibly depressing for me.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Hilariously terrible.

Warner Bros isn't exactly doing themselves any favors when it comes to their dealings with the Tolkien Estate. Getting rights to The Silmarillion/Children of Hurin was already going to be a tough one but this?

 

[SRTtoZ]

Fucking Yuck.

 

[Ben Morales]

So final launch trailer gonna be Shelob stripping?

Yup. Set to Rihanna's "Pour It Up".

I was disgusted on multiple levels. Just canceled my order. Doubtful ill even pick it up at this point, considering the complete butchery of lore, among other things.

Is this reaction not a bit overboard for a minute long promo trailer, among many, on one tribe in the game? It's just interesting to me that this is the tipping point.

Has to be one of the worst trailers I've seen in a good while.

SO I'MMA NEED, I'MMA NEED A
100,000 DOLLARS IN MY HAND RIGHT NOW

Should be Warner Bros. theme song, to be honest.

Rap car music is used, that is the line that should never be crossed. I'll tolerate Shelod being a hot spider chick, but rap car music in a trailer?!? They have to publicly apologize and fire whoever was responsible for that trailer!

Rap car music…the audacity

These Tolkien fans coming out of the wood work to complain how Shadow of War is ruining their lore and crap is hilariously dumb.

The first game was about a human merging with a wraith and then becoming the most powerful orc murderer in all the land. It was just trash fan fiction that shat all over Lord of the Rings. I cannot possibly see how Shadow of War crosses a line, the first game already did that.
