The Rings of Power cost one billion dollars. The original trilogy cost 280 million. Why does the original still look better 24 years later?

It’s not nostalgia. There are three concrete reasons. And each one is more impossible to replicate than the last.

    I found the original trilogy fake as well. Agreed, it doesn’t look like CGI-fake, but it looks DisneyWorld-fake.

    “But the let Rivendell’s set age naturally for a year before shooting!” Yeah, it looks like an old set, not a multi-centenary place.
