Next Episode: The Matrix Resurrections with Jerry White (English)

Here in Part 2 of my discussion with Dr. Ritesh Mehta, we start talking about some differences between the novel and the movies. We move on to our 3 best and worst changes from book to film, continue on by discussing our admiration for the geography and lore of Middle-earth, and end with speculation on the new Amazon Prime series The Rings of Power (FYI, when we recorded this, the title of the series was not out yet, nor was the new teaser which aired during the Super Bowl.)
