A promo for Amazon's 'The Lord of the Rings' TV show is getting a meme makeover-美玉无瑕网

A new promo video for Amazon's big budget The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of PowerTV show dropped this week and, my goodness, did the internet have jokes. Now, to be clear, this video is neither the opening credits of the show, as some folks thought, nor is it an official trailer.

It's a mash-up of images from a promo with Entertainment Weekly. In fact, the video sits atop an in-depth EWstory about the ambitious fantasy show. But that didn't stop folks from posting sarcastic comments on Twitter about the video.

Though the post wasn't from the show itself, there is plenty to laugh about. It's quite strange to see what amounts to a mash-up of GIFs of actors in full LOTR garb making knowing glances, over-wrought reactions, and other vague capital-A-Acting expressions.

One person noticed a stunning similarity to a joke in Community.
