The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Drinker mentions it as well, but one scene that got a lot of criticism is an orc family being shown. They try to humanize them. Orc dad going to fight while orc mom and child are at home.

The problem with that is per the source material, orcs not only can't have children, but they're, literally, just demons with no purpose other than to commit evil.

Of course, there's always some Hollywood asshole to tell the audience they're wrong...and as you can see, it's not going well for him.
