The first season already ‘connected’ with the Canary Islands
The Rings of Powerthe prequel to The Lord of the rings that is broadcast on Amazon Prime Video keeps more than one surprise in its chapters and some other relationship with Canary Islands. Curiosities, unanswered questions and criticism accompanied the premiere of the series that was intended to be faithful to the saga written by JRR Tolkien and has not left anyone indifferent. Those who get carried away by immersing themselves in an immense world of fantasy without having read her books are also divided among those who have criticized her for introducing black actors into civilizations such as those of the elves or the one of the hairy due to a purely genetic plot inconsistency and because it would be impossible for some of those very small towns to have racial differences, and those who allow themselves to be immersed in a fantastic world without going beyond the mere enjoyment of the series. But among those who have read Tolkien’s work, the criticism is sharp and merciless.

Charlotte Brandströmdirector of the chapter, has explained to Variety (via CBR) that his team was inspired by the eruption of the Tajogaite volcano, on the island of La Palma, to give the natural catastrophe more realism.
Brandström has revealed that filming and planning this sequence was something really complexsince “it tried to reflect a certain realism within the magic of a fantastic and epic show like this.” The director of this chapter argues that, one way or another, “one of the biggest challenges was presenting the birth of Mount Doom as something epic and plausible.” It was the fruit of an enormous amount of hard work that made us mix special and visual effects of all kinds, stunts performed by specialists and a lot of extra work by the team”, he says.
“We were in all the volcanic eruptions that you can imagine”, explained to Variety the movies. “Since the eruption of Pompeii, which happened in New Zealand a few years ago, and the eruption of the La Palma volcano, in the Canary Islands on September 19, 2021“, he concluded.
