Seems like yesterday, but it has actually been many years since I made this graphic now. Some striking similarities to my own brain I think.
The Hobbit takes place over about a year and that story was turned into three movies. LOTRonPrime will tell the tales of the Second Age which spans 3441 years.
You do the math.
Actually, it's 20 500 hours or about 1 025 seasons with each having 20 one hour episodes.
With the current budget of an impressive 250 - 500 million USD per season Jeff Bezos can still fund the first 320 - 640 seasons all by himself.

Data analysis: Tolkien might have subconsciously given Hobbits even numbered birth years because he loved them When looking at the birth years of characters in Tolkien’s works it turns out that even numbered years are much more prevalent for Hobbits than other characters. Studies have shown that even numbers are generally seen as good and odd numbers as bad. Is it possible that Tolkien’s love for Hobbits subconsciously affected their birth years? We will never know for sure but the data definitely suggests it did.

My TEDxTalk from 2012 on my passion for Tolkien’s Middle-earth.
There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.

I’ve spent the last few days creating this weathered map of Middle-earth for my living room wall. It took probably around two days to complete and I am quite pleased with how it turned out.
