Episode 29 - Breakdown of Episode 8 with Anna

Welcome to the thirty-third episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!

We're back for a surprise episode to end the year, as we have our first ever interview with one of the crew from The Rings of Power!

Alex Disenhof is the cinematographer for Episodes 6 & 7 of Season 1, and returned to the show as Lead Cinematographer for Season 2.

My conversation with Alex covers everything from his own journey watching The Lord of the Rings trilogy in the cinema, to joining the production of The Rings of Power, and everything that went into making such an epic season of television.

We also cover some previously unanswered questions about Season 1 and see if we can't get any hints about the next season!

Welcome to the thirty-second episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!

The podcast is back again... for a second return from the dead! 

This episode is slightly different than our usual format as I dive into a comparison between Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and Tolkien's legendarium, taking aim at the theme of creators and their creations.

We explore what parallels exist between Nolan's depiction of Oppenheimer and Tolkien's own mythical creators, seeing where they fit the Promethean model, and how all creators lose control over their creations.

I hope you enjoy this diversion from our usual format, but we'll back in the future with our usual analysis of The Rings of Power as we look ahead to Season 2!
